Key Market Issues
Shift towards portable electronics
In soldier modernization programs, a shift is being witnessed towards smaller and lighter systems as the weight being carried is increasing with soldiers carrying electric power batteries required in electronic systems used by war fighters such as night vision goggles, personal computers, unmanned vehicles and smart munitions threats. Developing weapon system’s capabilities without the corresponding development of new technologies to meet the rising demand for battery power will increase the number of batteries to be carried by soldiers.
Portable surveillance and force protection systems to be in demand
The dismounted soldier faces a wide variety of threats including small arms fire, IEDs and attack from rocket propelled grenades. Therefore, force protection is a prerequisite for mission success, irrespective of the complexities of the situation. Innovative solutions for detecting, reacting, countering and eliminating threats are required which provide soldiers enhanced situational awareness.
Reducing the burden of soldiers poses a key challenge for soldier modernization market
Modernization of soldier systems to protect, mobilize and empower the soldier has resulted in an exponential increase in the total weight being carried by soldiers, which prevents them from being agile, mobile and effective war fighters. Lives of soldiers are being put at risk as heavy life saving equipment is often being left behind. Therefore, defense agencies worldwide are focusing on sourcing and integrating the most affordable, lightweight soldier equipment and technology to reduce the burden of personnel.
Key Highlights
North America to continue to dominate the market
Despite budget cuts, North America is expected to account for the largest share of the total global expenditure on soldier modernization systems with a 33% share in the forecast period. High demand in the region is primarily driven by the country’s procurement of latest technology in C4ISR and Mobility based soldier modernization systems.
Need for troops which are less in number but more effective
The leading military nations of the world have embarked upon a new strategy which envisages cutting down the number of troops while at the same time increasing the effectiveness of smaller, more mobile units. This vision has evolved gradually as major military nations have recognized the need to modernize their infantry in order to fight modern asymmetric warfare.
Very high demand for C4ISR ,Mobility and Survivability based soldier systems
With the spread of more and more assymetric warfare around the globe, there has been a rise in demand for troop mobility and personnel protection systems such as fuel tank protection kits, force protection systems and components, situational awareness (ODS-SA) vehicles and mine resistant ambush protected (MRAP) vehicles.
