Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Unmanned Sea Systems Market 2017-2021" report to their offering.

The global unmanned sea system market to grow at a CAGR of 7.70% during the period 2017-2021.

The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global unmanned sea system market for 2017-2021. To calculate the market size, the report presents a detailed picture of the market by way of study, synthesis, and summation of data from multiple sources. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

Unmanned sea systems are remotely controlled or pre-programmed autonomous water vehicles. They are mainly classified into two: unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) and unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs). Globally, the Navy uses unmanned sea systems for underwater mapping missions, surveillance, and as surface targets during naval exercises or to clear naval mines.

According to the report, one driver in market is predisposition for the deployment of UUVs. The demand for UUVs is increasing for naval intelligence; mine countermeasures (MCM); intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance roles; and anti-submarine warfare missions. The naval forces predominantly deploy two types of UUVs: AUVs and ROVs. ROVs are connected to a surface naval vessel via cables that are controlled manually, whereas AUVs are fully autonomous in function. In naval operations, these UUVs are specially designed and deployed for underwater surveillance, hull inspections, dock inspections, and underwater mines deactivation.
