The airspace security landscape is evolving faster than ever, and 2025 is shaping up to be a year of unprecedented transformation. As drone technology advances and becomes more accessible, the opportunities and threats it brings are reshaping how we approach air defense, public safety, and commercial operations.

In Dedrone by Axon’s 9th Annual Airspace Security Report, we’ve outlined 16 key predictions that will define the next era of airspace security. From drone swarms to AI-driven counter-measures, the trends you need to know are all there. Below are the top 4 predictions from the report.

Top 4 Airspace Security Predictions for 2025

  1. Rising drone threats will demand advanced and constantly evolving counter-measures for detection and mitigation, as well as new training protocols for our police and defense forces.
  2. AI-powered and autonomous drones will revolutionize defense strategies and transform public safety operations.
  3. Drone as First Responder will become a standard for policing, reducing risks to first responders and improving emergency response times.  
  4. Warfare will be formally re-defined with airspace superiority now dependent on drone / counter-drone capabilities versus the last 100 years’ definition of having the most competent planes with the best-trained pilots.  

Whether you’re in defense, public safety, or commercial security, staying ahead of these trends is critical.
