The armored vehicles market will reach USD 35.2 billion, growing at a rate of 5.1%, by 2030 as per a report by P&S Intelligence. This can be credited to the rising cross-border disputes, increasing demand for robust, compact, and highly effective armored vehicles, the increasing defense expenses of several nations, and the militarization of law enforcement agencies. 

Furthermore, the high expenditure on R&D by key industries and collaborations of government and private organizations to produce highly innovative solutions for defense are boosting industry growth.

Unmanned armored ground vehicles are expected to witness the fastest growth in the armored vehicles market, during the forecast period. This is credited to the increasing demand for these vehicles due to their crucial role in assisting logistic operations onshore and supporting terrestrial combat. 

Combat vehicles generated the highest revenue in recent years, and this trend will continue in the future as well. This is because of the rising demand for light-protected vehicles and armored personal carriers. 

Global military spending has increased significantly in the past few years. Due to internal and external security threats, conflicts between nations, technological advancement in defense, rising terrorism activities, and various border security issues. 

Wheeled armored vehicles held the larger revenue share in recent years, and they will witness faster growth during the forecast period. These are gaining popularity because of their advanced combat capabilities, lighter weight, and better mobility. 
In addition, the increasing incidence of terrorist attacks in urban areas has boosted the requirement for armored vehicles.
