Global Military Robots Market Insights

Military Robots Market size was valued at USD 19.08 billion in 2021 and is

poised to grow from USD 20.63 billion in 2022 to USD 38.79 billion by 2030,

growing at a CAGR of 8.2% in the forecast period (2023-2030).

Military robots are self-driving or remotely controlled robots that are used for

military purposes ranging from transportation to search and rescue to attack.

Some of these systems are already in use, and many more are being

developed. The evolving nature of combat, as well as the monetary value

placed on war losses, have bolstered the use of robots in recent wars. Because

of the high number of casualties in previous wars, most governments have

invested in new unmanned systems to keep a fleet of UAVs, UUVs, and UGVs on

hand for critical missions. Countries are collaborating to develop new vehicles

capable of overcoming obstacles and assisting ground troops in future

warfare using advanced robotics technology.

Furthermore, the industry's major players are supported by government

agencies that make significant investments, allowing them to spend more on

R&D, allowing corporations to consistently develop and create more efficient

and advanced technology. The growing trend of combining humans and

robots on the battlefield is expected to hasten the development of unmanned

military weapons. Robots can perform tasks more quickly and precisely,

reducing the number of casualties during combat. The incorporation of

technology in military robots such as artificial intelligence, real-time data

monitoring, and the Internet of Things (IoT) has significantly changed the

dynamics of modern combat. Soldiers' unpredictable threat can be easily

identified and tracked by AI-integrated robots on air, ground, and sea

platforms.

Stabby Returns

While I want people to subscribe to my Patreon because like everybody else I've got bills to pay. Stabby the Roomba belongs to the community, so here's this morning's Stabby story.

Prompt: “Those robots were uniquely hard to conquer but fell nonetheless, what’s curious though, is they seem to call out for their ‘Earthly parent’.”

It was no secret among the species of the alliance that humans pack bonded. They were a social species. That they gave their technological creations, robots they called them, this behavior, was interesting and also disturbing. Vsdnak shook xe’s head, causing xe’s antennae to sway, and looked over the now empty ship. Twisted bits of titanium and steel were scattered everywhere, along with pools of the petrochemical fluid the human’s called “cherry juice” that their mechanical creations used for their hydraulic systems. The shade was disturbingly similar to the blood of biological humans, or at least how it was described in the study materials.

Vsdnak had yet to actually see a human, it was far more common to encounter their robots than members of the human species. Yet all their ships still had full life support capabilities for biologicals. The machines, when destroyed, would call out for whatever human they had bonded with. Between the resemblance to actual human forms, the fluid that leaked from them, and the fact they mimicked pack bonded biological behavior it was easy to forget these things were not biological sentients.

If there was one thing, the primates were good at making it was weapons. That was Vsdnak’s entire purpose on this ship. To recover any weapons that were aboard. This was ship small for a military carrier but the humans seemed to like vessels of this size to carry small arms and ammunition. Xe checked the charge on xe’s particle thrower, it was still full. The sensor readings showed only base levels of activity aboard. What little activity there was could just be the ship's own systems. The crew of xe’s sister ship had been slaughtered in xyr encounter with it. The two survivors had already been rescued, and xe had sent xe’s own crew back to xyr vessel already. Xe remained simply to see what was still intact that could be taken. Human “slug throwers” were famed for their ability to pierce energy shields and no one had ever duplicated the explosive powders that seem to power them. It seemed like whatever it was made from was exclusive to the barren rock the humans claimed as their homeworld. 

Vsdnak shifted xe’s antennae again, that type of thing was for the scientists to figure out, xe was just a mercenary pilot, specializing in salvage. Xe passed some shattered exoskeletons from the members of xe’s sister ship’s crew. According to xyr logs, xy had boarded this vessel in order to use melee and short burst energy weapons to pacify the robotic crew. Xy should have known better. Humans were famed for their relative strength and endurance, and their robots were even stronger. Human metal work was some of the strongest in the known galaxies. So their hand weapons could easily penetrate chitin. Their robots were always armed with the same. Finally xe reached the door that should be the cargo area in this ship class. Xe reached down with xe’s lower manipulation foot to withdraw a code breaker from the supply pouch belted around xe’s lower thorax. Placing it against what looked to be the door’s locking mechanism, xe pressed the activator and waited a few seconds until the indicator light glowed and xe detected the reassuring ping of device success. The door slid open and xe focused xe’s eyes on the boxes of cargo, marked ‘ammunition 7.62x51mm’ in the human script. While xe could not read the human language, xe knew this marking well. Human weapon ammunition, multiple crates of it. This would go for an extremely high price on the salvage markets. These projectiles were known to occasionally pierce ship hulls and devastate beings using only energy shields.

Xe’s antennae twitched again, detecting an electrical signal. Something, some piece of technology was still active in this cargo hold. Vsdnak felt a sharp pain as something pierced xe’s leg just above the floor. The electrical signal…. Xe looked down, and there it was, a small round cleaning robot, a sharp blade of some sort attached to it with adhesive tape. It let out a forlorn beep as it backed up and then started forward again; the blade piercing the exoskeleton of xe’s leg again allowing the hemolymph to flow more quickly out of xe’s body. Xe reached for xe’s supply pouches to withdraw the first aid kit, but the dizziness from the fluid loss was already starting to affect xe. 

There was a hiss from the cargo bay door behind xe. Before Vsdnak could even turn, a sharp, overwhelming pain blossomed throughout his consciousness. As Vsdnak fell, xe heard a voice speaking, “Good job, Stabby, you got the roach.”

Coalition IAR-2 Abolisher Robot

Originally released on p. 35 of Rifts Sourcebook 1

The Abolisher, Infantry Assault Robot (IAR-2), is another giant vehicle that is part of the Coalition States' military forces. Unlike the UAR-1 Enforcer, which is designed specifically to combat ground troops in an urban/city environment, the Abolisher is a frontline infantry unit with long-range capabilities and heavy firepower for obliterating enemy troops. The focus of its armaments is anti-robot and anti-tank, hence the six heavy cannons bristling around what appears to be the head. The rim of cannons has given the 30 foot (9 m) robot the nickname 'Thorn Head."

The heavily armored bot is a massive, humanoid shaped, all terrain assault vehicle designed to withstand heavy bombardment. However, in keeping with the frightening Death's Head motif, the Abolisher is designed to look like a massive skull with arms and legs. The two eyes are infra-red and conventional light searchlights for night assaults. The upper skull body can rotate 360 degrees and is operated by a five-man crew. Two soldiers are gunners operating three cannons each, the pilot and the copilot/communications engineer (either the pilot or copilot can fire the small, forward facing, dual laser turret) and the top hatch gunner, usually a SAMAS.

The big guns are devastating weapons that can blast an enemy from all sides simultaneously. The robot's arms and hands are powerful and lethal in hand to hand confrontations (can rotate 180 degrees at the shoulders). On top of the behemoth is a Gunner's Hatch which allows a SAMAS or soldier to perch himself on the head and fire at the enemy from the top of the robot. An inner hatch locks automatically, preventing the enemy from easy access should the top gunner be killed; the inner hatch can only be opened by one of the pilots.

The only real disadvantage to the 30 foot (9 m) giant is that its incredible weight and large size reduce its speed and maneuvering capabilities. Although great in the field as an outer perimeter defense or as an infantry assault unit (tank with arms and legs), its speed and size make it an easy target (hence the heavy armor). Unless one wishes to destroy a city, the bot is not well suited for city conflicts. Its weapons are too powerful for use in the city, able to demolish an S.D.C. skyscraper in mere moments, and its size and bulk makes maneuvering through narrow streets difficult. Still, it is excellent for city defense, being able to be placed wherever needed, and ideal for infantry combat.

IAR-2 Abolisher: Size 9 (Huge), Crew 5+2, Strength d12+10, Toughness 60 (36), Pace 14+d10 (70 MPH)

Notes: MDC Armor, Shoulder STS-Cluster -4 to hit and 24 Hardness.

Weapons:

6 x C-144 Auto-Cannons (Spaced 360 degrees around the crown of the bot; Range 100/200/400, 5d12+5 Mega Damage, AP 12, RoF 1)

Anti-Personnel Lasers (belly gun)

Black Market Cost: 80 Million credits, Rarity -4

Mini Fanfic #1042: Another Round, Santa Baby?~ (Sonic X Crash)

10:54 p.m. at the Crocodile's Residence's Living Room........

Vanilla: (Watches the Kids Sleeping Together on the Living Room Sofa With a Bright Smile on her Face) Awww~ Look at how cute our babies are bundled up together, Vector-Kins~

Vector: (Chuckles Lightly With his Arms Crossed Together) I know, right? Our kids are pretty cute as hell if I do say so myself. And look at this.

Vector points at Tails and Coco sleeping woth one another with the later covered up nicely around her fox friend's two, fluffy tails.

Vanilla: (Starts Gushing Some More at the Two Sleeping Duo) My goodness~ Those two look so precious cuddling up with one another~ (Turns to Vector) Do you think they'll make a cute couple one of these days?

Vector: (Shrugs) I think so. Those two kept saying they're only just friends, but give 'em a few more years. (Smirks Teasingly) They'll be all lovey dovey with one another in no time.

Vanilla: (Giggles Softly) Right. But now with that out of the way....(Sticks her Hand Out to Vector) Shall we complete our Christmas shopping for the year, my dear husband?~

Vector: (Place his Hand on Top of his Wife's) Let's.

Few Minutes Later at the Time Square's Grand Market, Hats' Section......

Vector: (Examines a Backless, Burnt Like Hat Resembling That to Jotaro Kujo's) I don't get it. Like, how the heck did that Jotaro guy was able go on his weird, bizarre adventures wearing this messed-up looking thing on his head all day?

Vanilla: (Walks Towards her Husband While Pushing a Buggy With Five Boxes of Candy Inside) Maybe he put something on his hair that helps it stick together?

Vector: Maybe. Cheese been a fan of the guy for longest now, so he might know the real answer better than any of us.

Vanilla: Ooh! Which reminds me. Vector, we need to find a pair fighting gloves for Cheese to wear.

Vector: (Raises an Eyebrow in Confusion) Fighting gloves? Honey, have you seen all the times that Chao beaten all of Eggman's robots at ease? And at approximately fifteen seconds nonetheless!

Vanilla: ('Sigh') Yes, yes, I'm aware of the impressive feats. I just don't want our baby boy to start getting his hands broken. Or....rather his arms. I think?

Vector: (Shrugs) Eh. Fair. Here's hoping we can find his size.

Few Minutes Later at the Electronics Section.......

Vanilla: (Picks a DVD Up From the One of the Shelves with a Little, Cartoonish Looking Bee Grinning on the Cover) So this the Bee Movie Charmy wants for Christmas this year?

Vector: ('Sigh') Yeeup. The boys and I saw on the big screen a long while back and the kid is only one in the entire audience who actually likes it surprise- surprise.

Vanilla: Was it really that bad?

Vector: It was more weird if anything. The bee factory, bee military, the honey trial that happened at one point down the line, there's even this whole subplot of a woman having a romantic relationship with that bee on the cover who, mind you, is hell of a lot smaller than Charmy is in their universe.

Vanilla: I...see. (Smiles Sheepishly) Well, I guess our opinions doesn't really matter all that much iif he still likes the movie himself, right?

Vector: ('Sigh') Yeah, I guess so. Still weird.

Few Minutes Later at the Books Section..........

Vector: (Takes a Look at a Book that Reads "Ninja Powers For Dumbies" on the Front Cover) Huh. They actually made a about ninjas. Doubt any of this is accurate, buuut I'm sure Espio would find some use out of it. (Turns to Vanilla Behind Him) Got any more books to give him, dear?

Vanilla: (Pulls Up One of the Books He Has in her Hand) Just a few cookbooks and ingredients he'll might be interested in.

Vector: (Walks Over and Reads the Title of the Book Vanilla's Holding Up in Particular) "The Essence of Ramen Dishes"?

Vanilla: He's been taking a lot interest in making us ramen lately that I figured I would give him a book on how make different varieties of them.

Vector: His ramens are pretty tasty.....You think he'll might make a restaurant business out of this one of these days?

Vanilla: (Smiles Softly) I can see that as a possible future for him, so long as he's safe and happy.

Vector: Amen to that. (Gently Pulls Vanilla into a One Arm Hug) You're a good mom, you know that?

Vanilla: (Heart Begins to Melt as She Happily Hugs Vector Back) And you're a wonderful daddy~(Gives Vector a Loving Kiss on the Lips Before Raising an Eyebrow at Him) But do you mind telling me how we have bunch of dessert related coombooks in our buggy right now?

Vector: Uhhh...... (Shrugs With a Sheepish Smile Crept Up on his Face) Cause....I love you?

Vanilla: (Giggles Softly Before Hugging her Husband Again) Love you too, you silly crocodile~ Now, how about we wrap this night up by getting our baby girl her best gift yet?

Vector: Yeah, it that cute looking pony bike she's been asking for, right? We can get that for her no problem.

Few Minutes Later at the Bicycle Section......

The crowd of adults begins to fist fight one another for the pony like bike as Vector and Vanilla watches the action unfolds in the mid distance.

Vector: ('Sigh') Never mind. Guess we're gonna have to deal with THIS crap now, unfortunately....

Vanilla: (Frowns Deeply at the Scene) Why couldn't they just talk it out instead of pointlessly hurting each other?

?????: Because that would assume that they would have common sense.

The couple to see the evil scientist, Dr Eggman, standing right next to them.

Eggman: Which they clearly don't. (Takes a Loud Sip of his Drink)

Vector: Eggman, what are you doing here?

Eggman: Christmas shopping obviously. I got almost everything on the list. The only thing I need to do now is to find something that would peek interest to my little girl back home.

Vanilla: (Eyes Widened in Surprise and a Bit of Disbelief) I'm sorry. But....are you implying that you have a-

Vector: (Eyes Widened in Complete Disbelief) DAUGHTER!?

Eggman: (Smiles Brightly) That's right. (Shows the Couple a Photo of His Daughter Smiling Sitting Next to her Father and Robot Brotherings While Wearing a Black Vest) Her name is Sage Ivo Robotnik. A power A.I. I created a while back whom I've now treated as one of my own ever since.

Vanilla: ('Gasps') Oh my gosh, Vector, she looks so cute and squish~

Vector: Yeah. She....actually looks good in this photo, doc. In fact, the entire family portrait as a whole looks nice.

Eggman: Why, thank you! I cannot tell you how long it took me find a decent photographer take our pictures. (Rolls his Eyes) And don't even get me started on the payment fees.....It was a nightmare to pay! ('Sigh') But I suppose all of that doesn't so long as my little angel is satisfied.

Vanilla: (Clasps her Hands Together While Gushing Over the Doctor's Words) Awww~

Vector: (Almost at a Loss For Words) Wow. You're.....really taking the whole parent role this seriously, aren't you?

Eggman: Of course I'm taking it seriously. I mean, yeah, it's a challenge, a very exhausting one at that.....(Takes a Deep Breath While Speaking) But it's fine. I knew what I was getting myself into the moment I made Sage from scratch and I intend keep moving with this responsibility going forward. Ooh but speaking of which, would it be fine with you two if we set up a play date for the kids in the near future? The last thing I want is for my girl be coped up in a laboratory all day.....

Vanilla: (Turns to Vector For a Brief Second Before Turning Back to the Doctor with a Simple, Happy Nod) It would be an honor, Doctor. We could start the play date on the first week of the new year if you like. There's just one, teensy favor I need from you first.

Eggman: (Smiles Brightly) Spendid! A-And sure! What sort of favor you two need at the moment.

Vanilla: (Places her Hand onto Eggman's Shoulder) Oh it's nothing too grand~ Just wanted to let you know that- (Suddenly Gives Eggman a Dark, Menacing Glare as She Starts Squeezes his Shoulder Tightly With her Nails) If you ever try to kidnap me and/or bring harm to my family again, I'll find and I will beat and burn you and your entire legacy down to the ground in body bags, got it?

Vector: (Crosses his Arms at a Very Terrified Doctor) Better take her words to heart, doc. Saw her got provoked once. (Shakes his Head a Bot Slowly) Not a pretty good sight.

Eggman: (Starts Sweating Bullets as He Begins to Let Out a Gulp) Y-Yes. Dully noted, 100%!

Vanilla: (Immediately Went Back to Smiling at the Doctor) Wonderful!~ (Lets Go of Eggman's Shoulder Before Sweeping the Dust Off of Him With her Hand) I'm so glad we came to an agreement.

Eggman: Yes. (Chuckles Awkwardly and Nervously) Me too. And don't worry about Sage. She's a very kind young lady for the most part, so I'm sure the your offsprings will take a liking to her instantly. (Turns Back to the Brawling Crowd) As for the crowd in front of us.....

Eggman pulls out a highly tech mini blaster from his buggy and freeze the crowd in each of their place. Leaving the bicycle itself unharmed.

Vanilla: (Gasps at What She Just Witnessed)

Eggman: (Whirls the Blaster Up and Back Down to the Buggy With a Satisfied Smile on his Face) There. Problem solved.

Vanilla: (Immediately Turns Back to Eggman With a Glare on her Face) Doctor Robotnik Eggman! You didn't have to freeze them solid like that!!

Eggman: On the contrary, Mrs. Crocodile, I did. They were getting too crowded and noisy for my liking.

Vector: Yeah and besides....(Picks the Bicycle Up and Carries It With Him) At least we don't have to worry about fighting tooth and nail to get our baby carrot's gift.

Vanilla: ('Sighs in Defeat') That's true. And this is the final gift on the list, so....(Reluctantly Shrugs) Mission accomplished I suppose....(Turns to the Frozen Crowd) They won't be frozen forever, will they?

Eggman: (Flail his Arm Down) Oh relax, will you? (Starts Walking Away With the Married Couple Following Pursuit) They won't stay like that forever. Give it a few minutes or so and they'll be unthaw in no time. Probably. I haven't used this blaster for the longest time now, so i don't have slightest clue how long the freezing process will take.

Vector: Ah geez...

Moments Later at the Market's Parking Lot.......

Vector: (Let's Out a Sigh as He Gets Into the Family Van Along with Vanilla) Finally. We're done shopping for the year.

Vanilla: And we didn't have to spend anything too expensive this time around. Thank goodness for that.....

Vector: Tell me about it. (Places his Hand on his Forehead) I still can't get over the fact that Eggman of all people, is being a parent. And a fairly decent one at that......

Vanilla: (Smiles Sheepishly) I'd be lying if I say that didn't took me out of the loop for a second there. But I'm sure there isn't for us to worry about so long as he treats her well.

Vector: ('Sigh') Yeah, you're right about that. I still got my eye on him though.

Vanilla: (Giggles a Little) Of course you do, dear. ('Sigh') But alas, Christmas morning is upon us. And I suppose that means you're going to play the role as Santa again, aren't you?

Vector: Yeah, but.....(Turns to Vanilla With a Smirk on his Face) Not without help.

Vanilla: Not without hel- (Immediately Gasps Loudly by that Statement) Wait. Y-You don't mean-

Vector: I got your costume up and ready for you in my detective office. So with that in mind....(Gently Picks Vanilla's Hand Up in a Propsal like Fashion) Would you do me the honors of being my Mrs. Claus-

Vanilla: YES!~ (Immediately Pulls Vector into a Tight, Loving Hug)

Vector: ( Chuckles Lightly While in her Wife's Embrace) Sheesh, Vanilly!~ I know you wanted to play the role, but I didn't think you be that excited for it.

Vanilla: I couldn't help it~ Her sweet, mother hen characteristics were practically made for me. Granted, I.....am not really sure what her usual lines are...(Quickly Puts On a Determined Look on her Face) But I'll do my very best to do her proud!

Vector: (Smiles Sheepishly) That's good and all, but try not to stress over it too much, alright? You'll do just fine.

The Next Morning......

'Door Opens'

Santa (Vector): (Walks in the Living Room Carrying a Large, Red Sack) HO! HO! HO! HO!

Kids/Cheese: SANTA!/CHAO CHAO!

Cream: (Eyes Begins to Sparkle at the Sight of the Man in Red) You're visiting us again, this year!?~

Santa: Better believe it, Little Cream! And joining me on this fine Christmas Morning is none other thaaaaan.....

Vanilla: (Happily Presents Herself in Front of the Doorway While Wearing a White Wig and Red and White Dress) Mrs. Claus!~

Cream: ('Gasps') Mrs. Claus is here too?~

Mrs. Claus: (Walks Into the Living Room) That's right, my sweet darling. I'm sorry I wasn't able to make it last year. I had to make sure the workshop is in good shape while Santa was away delivering presents.

Cream: There's no need for you to apologize for that, ma'am. (Walk Over and Gives "Mrs. Claus" a Loving Hug) We're just so happy to finally meet you in person.

The rest of the kids soundly agrees as they join in on the hug fest, making the woman in red heart melt and tear up at how precious each of them are.

Mrs. Claus: Oh my sweet little angels.....(Happily Pulls The Gang into a Big Hug) I'm so happy to see you all too!!~

Santa: (Watches the Group in the a Bit of a Short Distance, Standing Next to Espio) ('Sigh') This is sweet. (Snickers a Bit) And ironic that I'm getting my thunder stole by my own wife of all people.

Espio: Considering her absent last year, It's only fair that she takes the limelight of attention for once, Mr. Claus. (Raises an Eyebrow) Or should I say Vector?

Vector: Already figured me out, huh?

Espio: I already knew it was you last year. I just choice not to say it outright.

Vector: (Ruffles the Top of Espio's Head) Appericate you for doing that. Which reminds me.....(Turns to Espio While Pointing at Him) I need a favor from you.

Espio: (Slowly Raises his Eyebrow at Vector Again in a More Suspicious Like Manner) ....What sort of favor exactly?

Vector: Well, I've been thinking, since I've managed to get your mother to play Mrs. Claus, we might be in need of an elf-

Espio: No.

Vector: Oh come on, man! I can't blow my cover by asking one of the kids to do it for us. You're the only person right for the job!

Espio: (Groans While Giving Vector an Unconvinced Look)

Vector: Please? You can be the silent, assassin bodyguard or whatever. You don't even have say or do anything if you don't want to. Promise.

Espio: (Stares at Vector a Few Seconds More Before Letting Out a Sigh of Defeat) I'll see what I can do.

Vector: (Smiles Brightly) Thanks man, you won't regret it. Ooh! And I also got a lot to tell you about Eggman too.

Espio: You do? What about him exactly?

Vector: Well...

Vector Starts whispering the details into the chameleon's ears until eventually.....

Espio: HE WHAT!!!?

What Your Capital of a United World Says About You

In science fiction it's tempting to unite the world. Sure this scenario is a nightmare to the nationalists of the world, but to the rest of us humanity united in exploring the cosmos and building global solidarity is the good ending to the human story. This united world would be a government that can exert actual control and monopolized state violence, unlike the UN, thus it'd have a hierarchy, and the functionaries of this superstate need a place to put their offices and homes, as well as alien worlds needing a place for their embassies, hence a global capital city. As a writer, here's what your capital city says about you, plus some pros and cons to help all others decide where they want their capital.

New York City

You set the world capital where the UN and the largest financial companies in the world are based, in your world humanity united under the broad liberal ideas of freeish markets and democracy. Either the UN took over the world in aide of a global catastrophe, or some other global congress decided to set up shop where the financial and political infrastructure already exists. You're a bit basic for choosing New York City, but I can't fault that.

Pros - Big city feel, surprisingly clean water for a city its size, and half of your American audience will love how you choose their biggest and most important city for the honor.

Cons - It's smelly, NIMBY's will destroy any chance at badass cyberpunk skyscrapers, and the other half of your American audience made being "rural" over 33% of their entire personality and see New Yorkers as a weird fucked up fungus people.

Washington DC

You're an American imperialist pig-dog and you're proud of it, there's no shame in being a pig-dog if you're coming out on top. America's immense military budget was a good investment after all, despite what most economists and philosophers (read, fucking nerds) would say. The flag of your united world has thirteen stripes and just the most stars you can imagine. They say the sky's the limit, but really the limit is the damn moon for you good ol' boy. The world unified after realizing that a life mostly spent in gridlock or turnpike traffic and subsisting on corn products shaped like other foods is the best way to live.

Pros: DC actually has nice monuments and architecture.

Cons: The congress building will have to be megalithic to fit the thousands of senators you'll have to house. Given how herayclean it is to change the constitution at least the House of Representatives keep their size.

Any California (or in the 2020's, Texas, city)

This is the refrain of Cyberpunk rules, where you live in a desert, or as nerds would correct me, something close to the desert (that's still way too dry to support the population to be frank). With the ideal being gleaming skyscrapers, glass towers, and an underground underclass of shanty-dwellers just trying to survive this cruel and unforgiving world. However, in reality, in California and Texas NIMBY's are more organized and militant than some militaries so it's more like endless cookie-cutter HOA dominated suburbs and the underground underclass of shanty-dwellers. I know Texas only became associated with its tech industry in the 1990's, but let's face it in 2023 the only real difference between Texas and Cali is the accent and how annoying the locals are about being from Texas. In your world megacorporations and technocrats rule with a steel fist (literally, because they have scary robot hands) and humanity is united not by government intervention, but by ruthless capitalist expansionism.

Pros - It's sunny, the beaches are perfect in the summer, plenty of desert and farmland for shootin' and ridin', great music scenes, and you can make very fun parodies of Elon.

Cons - You have to live in California or Texas, there are at least two layers of Hell I'd prefer.

Panama City

Hear me out, I know it's rare (I'm sure I just made this up), but can you genuinely name a more "central" place in humanity? It's along the intersections of north and South America, and sailing the canal is the fastest pre-airline way to travel from Asia to Europe or west Africa. Panama, like most of Latin America, is a very diverse country, and Panama gets very few natural disasters. Sure the heat and mosquitos are a lot to deal with, but this country was literally built to connect the world. If you ignore the actually complex history of Panama, that basic meaningless phrase can be treated as a beautiful sentiment.

Pros - Global shipping and a very central location for everyone to meet and cooperate.

Cons - Panama City is small and doesn't have much physical space to expand.

Rio De Janeiro/and Brazilian city

I know Sao Paulo is the biggest city in Brazil, and Brasilia is the capital, but Rio de Janeiro is the most fun to say so I'm just using it as the base template. If you use Rio as your world capital, it means you're Brazilian. I can't think of that many benefits per say of using Rio aside from just wanting a South American or Brazilian world capital, but honestly do we need a reason? Rio is simultaneously a colorful and playful place, but it also holds incredible inequality and a severe violence epidemic. If you want to criticize Brazilian society, as well as show off how fun and lovely it can be, it's a very great setting. Also, realistically any world government would incorporate multiple capitals from all over the world and Rio makes sense as the South American/Latin American capital.

Pros - The fun things I said

Cons - The not-fun things I said.

London

God save the king. Like the DC guy you're an imperialist pig-dog and you wear that label with pride, in OTL Britain's empire fell and the "glory" of the empire is often seen as a propaganda tool to distract from the horrific abuses committed in the name of her majesty's empire. However, if Britain could just unite the world, spay and neuter the French, and convince EVERYONE of her majesty's glory, London would hold the distinction as the home of the world's greatest minds, generals, and politicians. Wouldn't make haggis taste good, but at least Britain will rule the waves.

Pros - Britain will, by default, always bring the World Cup home.

Cons - There's a reason most countries CELEBRATE leaving the British Empire.

Rome

There are two types of people that want Rome to be the global capital. Fundamentalist Catholics and even more fundamentalist Rome or Byzantine nerds. All roads lead to Rome, and it's your philosophy that the Empire shall rise again to unify humanity and harness our spirit to its full potential. Either an ascended Pope to lead the empire of Heaven or a new Augustus

Pros - The "all roads" thing is almost literal if you live in Afro-Euroasia. It's also just badass to imagine yourself as a Roman, but without he whole slavery thing.

Cons - You're limited in the city's cool sci-fi shit when archeologists and UNESCO hogs every dig site. I know Lazio's ground has more artifacts than dirt but it makes building things for the now a Kafkaesque ordeal.

Moscow

The heart of the revolution, Moscow is the natural home to a socialist world where a supreme Soviet ensures housing and work for the "liberated" peoples of the world. In this world the Soviet Union (or Reunion) spreads its tentacles far and wide, overwhelming the capitalist machine and waving the red flag of liberty above every factory and barrack. In your world communism is humanity's goal, space travel is its most ambitious mission, comrade is the go-to gender-neutral pronoun, and there are no rules against steroids at the olympics.

Pros - Pays homage to Lenin's dreams

Cons - It's cold as shit

Istanbul

I'm putting this one on here because it makes sense. Istanbul has many historic and modern marvels and is located exactly where the Muslim and Western worlds border. While many people love to say Istanbul is a "central" location it really isn't in the grand scheme of things. Sure if you mean central in relation to the Middle East and Europe, but as a global capital we need to think of a place that's either historically significant or located where a lot of people are. Istanbul is very historically significant, but I think Istanbul is just a good very big city rather than a place everything should be central to.

Pros - It's a very nice place

Cons - I just don't feel it's "capital of humanity" worthy.

Jerusalem

Home to the Jewish temples, the Temple Mound, and some of the most grade temples in the world, this city is basically THE religion city. Regardless of what Abrahamic religion you choose, if it unified the world as one it'd likely be based here. It's not known for much else, aside from being central in the Israel-Palestine conflict, but I'm sure your world government can solve this conflict with the power of God, patience, and probably extreme violence.

Pros - Very religiously significant

Cons - If you think Israel/Palestine is controversial now...

Shanghai

Picking Beijing is too on-the-nose. You choose a Chinese city because you're either a Chinese patriot or you really buy into the idea of BRICS multipolarity. You want a more blue-collar and humble capital. While Shanghai has plenty of glass towers and cool spots, it's the influencer city in China after all, Shanghai is also the biggest city in China so most Shanghaiers are very average. A lot of factory and dock workers, a lot of service jobs, and a lot of everything really. Even if it is "the big city" there's not much of a reputation for Shanghai, it does practically everything as a large and powerful Chinese megapolis.

Pros - It's a massive and beautiful city.

Cons - It's in China so people on Reddit will call you a fascist if the setting isn't just a giant LiveLeak video. Because Shanghai has so many reputations it can seem generic.

Tokyo

You're probably a weeaboo. Okay, Tokyo is a great city for a retroist cyberpunk setting. Okay, Tokyo is the largest city in the world with loads of economic and diplomatic institutions that makes it one of the most globally important cities on Earth. Okay Tokyo is a beautiful place with amazing cityscapes, historic districts, castles, shinto shrines, and even beautiful mountains outside the city. But we both know you picked Tokyo because you JUST want to be a Mangaka. Besides, if any population would hate being a global capital it'd be the Japanese one.

Pros - Yeah it's a nice place and all.

Cons - You just look like a Dorn, assuming you're not Japanese. If you are Japanese, this choice just says you're basic. Try Osaka as a capital instead, it's just a slightly smaller Tokyo to everyone outside Japan.

New City

As Dante said, the darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality. Granted, he meant that in the context of moral decisions, but the fact that you had to make up a city instead of using one of the great ones that exist for your project shows a lack of commitment and a need to be inoffensive. While someone will always be mad at you when you pick one of these cities, no one will be happy that you pulled one out of your anal cavity to be as perfect and neutral as you want.

Pros - You don't offend anyone

Cons - You don't impress anyone

Any other city

You're a special unicorn who I am too basic and uninformed to fully understand or appreciate.

Pros - All the pros

Cons - All the cons

EOD equipment includes tools and technologies that assist military personnel, law enforcement agencies, and specialized bomb squads in detecting, identifying, and disposing of hazardous explosive devices. The demand for these tools has grown significantly over the years, driven by the increase in global security concerns, terrorism threats, and military modernization efforts.

Browse the full report https://www.credenceresearch.com/report/explosive-ordinance-disposal-eod-equipment-market

Market Overview

The global EOD equipment market has shown steady growth over the past decade and is expected to continue its upward trajectory. It encompasses a wide range of tools, including bomb suits, portable X-ray systems, bomb disposal robots, explosive detectors, disarmament tools, and other specialized protective gear. These tools are essential for defusing explosive devices such as landmines, improvised explosive devices (IEDs), and unexploded ordnance (UXOs), which continue to pose serious threats worldwide.

According to market analysts, the EOD equipment market was valued at approximately USD 7 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4-6% during the forecast period from 2024 to 2032. The growth is attributed to several factors, including rising defense budgets, increased investments in homeland security, and technological advancements that enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of EOD operations.

Key Drivers of Growth

1. Rising Threats of Terrorism and Conflicts The rise in terrorist activities, insurgencies, and border conflicts has increased the need for advanced EOD equipment. Countries across the globe are facing heightened risks from IEDs and other explosive threats, leading to an increase in defense and security spending. In particular, regions such as the Middle East, Africa, and parts of Asia have seen high demand for these technologies due to ongoing geopolitical tensions and military operations.

2. Modernization of Defense Forces Governments and defense organizations are increasingly investing in the modernization of their armed forces. As part of these efforts, military forces are seeking to upgrade their EOD capabilities with state-of-the-art technologies. The use of EOD robots, wearable protective gear, and portable detection systems is becoming standard practice for bomb squads and military personnel involved in high-risk operations.

3. Technological Advancements Technological innovations are driving the development of more sophisticated and efficient EOD equipment. For example, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in bomb disposal robots allows for better decision-making in complex environments. Portable X-ray systems are now capable of providing real-time, high-resolution images of suspicious objects, aiding in quicker and more accurate assessments of potential threats. Furthermore, advancements in materials science have led to the creation of more durable and lightweight bomb suits, providing greater protection and mobility for personnel.

4. Increased Homeland Security Measures Governments around the world are ramping up their homeland security measures in response to the growing threat of domestic terrorism and criminal activities involving explosives. Airports, train stations, government buildings, and other critical infrastructure are increasingly being equipped with EOD systems and equipment. The focus on securing public spaces from potential attacks has resulted in increased procurement of explosive detection and disposal tools by civilian law enforcement agencies.

Challenges Facing the Market

Despite its promising growth, the EOD equipment market faces certain challenges that may affect its expansion.

1.High Costs of EOD Equipment Advanced EOD equipment, such as bomb disposal robots and high-performance detection systems, come with significant costs. This limits the adoption of these tools, particularly in developing countries with limited defense and security budgets. As a result, many regions continue to rely on outdated equipment, posing risks to personnel and civilians alike.

2. Operational Risks and Limitations Although EOD equipment has advanced significantly, certain operational risks remain. Bomb disposal robots, for example, can malfunction in extreme weather conditions or difficult terrains. Additionally, the reliance on electronic systems makes some EOD tools vulnerable to hacking or interference, particularly in modern warfare scenarios where electronic warfare tactics are employed.

Future Outlook

The future of the EOD equipment market looks promising, with continued advancements in technology and increasing global security concerns. Key players in the market are expected to focus on developing more efficient, cost-effective, and versatile tools to meet the growing demand. Additionally, the integration of AI, robotics, and unmanned systems will likely revolutionize the way explosive threats are addressed, making EOD operations safer and more efficient.
