Large (>1,000 m) is expected to be the largest type segment during the forecast period.
Large (>1,000 m) AUVs play a pivotal role in undersea surveillance, mine countermeasure operations, and long-endurance ISR. These vehicles also support underwater pipeline inspection in the Gulf of Mexico, Arctic sea-floor mapping, and climate-monitoring missions led by NOAA and Canadian research institutions. Demand for long-range/long-durability missions with enhanced navigation accuracy and large payload capacity thus makes large AUVs critical for North American operators working in ultra-deep and high-latitude environments.
Propulsion & mobility is expected to be the fastest-growing system during the forecast period.
Demand for advanced propulsion and mobility systems is rising as missions in North America increasingly require long endurance in deep-underwater explorations and Arctic conditions. In recent years, substantial investments in high-efficiency electric drives, low-noise thrusters, and next-generation buoyancy engines have been observed. Advanced propulsion and mobility systems enable enhanced navigation during high currents and low temperatures. They also optimize power usage for long-duration missions.\
The US is expected to be the leading market during the forecast period.
The US is expected to be at the forefront of the autonomous underwater vehicle market in North America as federal agencies expand investment in autonomous technologies that enhance maritime awareness, support naval force readiness, and strengthen undersea deterrence strategies. Improved focus on safeguarding subsea communication cables, ports, and critical marine infrastructure is also expected to raise the adoption of AUVs for high-resolution situational analysis. Moreover, the shift toward digital ocean initiatives integrating real-time analytics, AI-driven navigation, and multi-vehicle coordination is enhancing mission efficiency and driving procurement of next-generation AUVs across defense, commercial survey operators, and national laboratories.
Kongsberg (US), General Dynamics Mission Systems (US), Boeing, Northrop Grumman (US), and Anduril Industries (US) are the major players in the autonomous underwater vehicle market in North America.
