Global Active Protection System Market Growth (Status and Outlook) 2025-2031
Description
According to this study, the global Active Protection System market size will reach US$ 6571 million by 2031.
This report studies the Active Protection System market, Active Protection Systems (APSs) are subsystems integrated into or installed on a combat vehicle to automatically acquire, track, and respond with hard or soft kill capabilities to a variety of threats, including rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs) and anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs). APS technologies are not new, and a number of nations have already employed APS on the battlefield. The proliferation of advanced RPGs and ATGMs is of concern to some defense officials and policymakers. These weapons—RPGs in particular—have been particularly popular with insurgents because they are readily available, relatively inexpensive, and require little training. Technical and operational challenges to APS include being able to work under extremely demanding circumstances and compressed timelines, robustness against countermeasures, minimizing the threat to friendly forces and civilians, being compatible with the space and power allocated to it on the vehicle, and affordability.
Intelligent upgrading has become the core direction.
The popularization of AI decision-making systems: The deep learning algorithm has increased the accuracy of decision-making to over 95%, enabling threat path prediction and the generation of adaptive interception strategies. By 2027, the global penetration rate of intelligent APS will exceed 65%, with the cost accounting for 42% of the total system cost.
Multi-sensor fusion: Millimeter-wave radar + infrared/ultraviolet detection + acoustic positioning form a multi-dimensional perception network, increasing the target recognition rate in complex environments to 92%. The deployment of edge computing nodes increases by 41% annually, and the response delay is compressed to within 0.1 seconds.
The extension of defense scenarios to the entire domain
Airspace defense breakthrough: The interception height of airborne APS exceeds 100 meters, and the success rate of responding to patrol missiles/ UAV swarms has increased to 88%. The sixth-generation fighter aircraft is equipped with a laser-microwave composite defense module.
Civilian security protection accelerates penetration: Tesla's CyberTruck integrates a micro APS anti-theft system, triggering a follow-up trend among car manufacturers. The purchase volume of APS for nuclear power plants/data centers will have a CAGR of 29% from 2025 to 2030.
The active defense system is undergoing a "AI intelligence, diversified interception, and military-civilian integration" triple leap. The cost reduction of laser/ electromagnetic new technologies and the construction of a collaborative defense network will reshape the industry landscape. However, energy consumption control and the ability to counter hypersonic flight are still the key to breakthroughs.
