Advanced stealth allows aviators to infiltrate areas without being identified by detectors that legacy fighters cannot avoid. High defense spending in developing as well as developed countries such as the U.S., China, the U.K, India and Israel is one of the key factors leading to the increased demand for fighter aircraft segment in airborne weapons market. Therefore, the share of this segment is expected to rise to as high as 74.01% in 2025.
In terms of the type of weapon used, the airborne weapon system market can segmented into bombs, guns, rifles, and missiles. In 2016, the missiles segment is expected to hold highest share in the airborne weapon system market. Among various weapons types, the missiles segment dominated the airborne weapons market followed by bombs in 2016 and anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.05% during the forecast period. Technological advancement in missiles to destroy enemy aircraft or helicopter at faster speed is one of the key factor driving the demand of missiles segment in airborne weapons market during the forecast period.
North America to Remain Strong in Global Market
Geographically, the report segments the global airborne weapon system market into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and South America. North America is presently the dominant shareholder in global airborne weapon system market due to its highest share in the production of fighter jets. Technological innovations in the defense weapons industry are not just oriented towards efficiency but also improved product quality and enhanced customer experience.
Manufacturers in the region are coming up with path-breaking product features at a considerable price range to meet buyer’s expectations. Airborne weapon system industry players are expanding their presence in growing weapons markets such as China, Israel, and India among others where the operating costs are low and demand is rising.
Some of the leading companies operating in the global airborne weapon systems market are Safran Electronics & Defense, FN Herstal, Boeing, Airbus, Ultra Electronics, Rheinmetall AG, SAAB AB, BAE System, Raytheon Company, and Lockheed Martin Corporation.
Increasing Expenditure on Military and Defense Sector to Bode Well for Airborne Weapon System Market
A bunch of gadgets containing a few weapons and conveyance vehicles alongside the fundamental hardware important for moving or conveying the weapon system via air is called an airborne weapon system. An exemplary airplane weapon system incorporates components, for example, programmed firearm discharge control system, rocket control system, intertwine work control system, various weapon discharge system, and cast off system. The interest for an assortment of airborne weapon systems has fundamentally expanded in the previous a long time from nations needing to shield their kin from outside or interior dangers. The rising consumption on military and guard rehearses across various nations, rising conflict debates among nations, and a rising tone of insecurity on an overall level are factors that are driving the market.
Innovative progression in rockets to obliterate adversary airplane or helicopter at quicker speed is one of the key factors driving the interest of rockets fragment in airborne weapons market during the gauge time frame. As international disputes between countries keep on ascending across the globe, an ever increasing number of governments are setting up armadas of airborne weapon systems to improve in-land wellbeing and security. A gigantic ascent in illegal intimidation exercises is likewise convincing the expanded selection of airborne weapon systems, driving worldwide interest. Advancements across Asia Pacific market could end up being exceptionally encouraging for organizations working in the airborne weapon system market.
The market is additionally determined because of the huge speed of headways saw in the field of sensors, gadgets, and related innovations in the previous few years. Consistent ascent in military and protection expenditure of nations across areas, for example, Middle East, North America, Asia Pacific, and Europe is likewise prompting the expanded appropriation of airborne weapon systems. Every one of these components are relied upon to engage producers to zero in additional on improvement of imaginative, progressed, and more precise focusing on advances sooner rather than later.
