“十五五”水下攻防体系前沿技术与未来产业链发展趋势预判报告

Core Insights - The underwater defense system is a strategic and systematic equipment and capability collection that integrates manned/unmanned platforms, detection networks, communication systems, intelligent weapons, and command control systems to safeguard national maritime sovereignty and security [1][23]. Industry Overview - The underwater defense system industry is a long-term pursuit and innovation history spanning several decades in China [2][24]. - The industry is characterized by a "pyramid" structure, with upstream focusing on special materials and core components, midstream on system integration, and downstream on military and civilian applications [5][28]. Industry Development Factors - The rigid demand for national strategic security and maritime rights drives the construction of the underwater defense system, ensuring the safety of strategic nuclear deterrence and maintaining maritime strategic channels [9][34]. - Breakthroughs in disruptive technologies and continuous advancements in deep-sea frontier technologies are crucial for the industry's capability leap [10][35]. - Strong support from top-level strategic planning and policy resources is essential for the development of the underwater defense system [11][36]. - The large-scale innovation and deepening military-civilian integration act as market accelerators for the industry [12][37]. Industry Trends - The industry is transitioning towards intelligent, unmanned, and distributed networks, reshaping rules and competitive landscapes [1][40]. - The integration of AI, advanced materials, and new energy sources is becoming a core manifestation of new productive forces in the underwater defense field [1][40]. Technological Characteristics - China has reached or is close to world-class levels in conventional submarine technology, certain underwater detection devices, and launch weapons, but still lags in nuclear submarine stealth technology and high-power persistent power systems [7][30]. - AI applications are primarily focused on signal processing and target classification, with a rapid expansion into more complex decision support areas [7][30]. Market Structure and Competitive Landscape - The global underwater defense system market is characterized by oligopolistic competition, with major military groups dominating the market [5][5]. - In China, the market is led by state-owned enterprises, while private companies are rapidly penetrating niche segments [5][5].
