Missiles and Missile Defense Systems Market Dynamics

Over the last decade, militaries across the globe have realized the potential of UAVs in the rapidly evolving network centric battlefield. UAVs are extensively used in multiple military applications, including maritime and land border surveillance, electronic warfare, target tracking and designation, and precision strike. Besides these conventional roles UAVs can be remotely piloted and equipped with varying degrees of autonomy to undertake pre-programmed flight plans. The older air defense systems are less capable of tracking UAVs due to their compact size, low radar cross-section (RCS), and reduced IR signatures. Therefore, countries are focusing on developing advanced air defense systems to counter the growing threat of UAVs.

Several countries have also directed their efforts toward the R&D and procurement of advanced next-generation conventional land attack and anti-ship missiles, featuring low RCS and reduced IR signatures. This makes it harder for the enemy’s radar and electro-optical and infrared (EO/IR) sensors to detect and track these missiles. Low observable (LO) missiles enable armed forces to attack ground targets, with a reduced risk of being engaged by enemy defenses.

However, the high R&D costs associated with missile tech restrict market growth. The production of missiles involves the development of advanced materials, navigation and guidance systems, and propulsion and targeting technologies and creating new research centers, testing facilities and production facilities. To support MMDS research and manufacturing, OEMs must also establish a robust network of supply chain partners. Aside from these considerations, OEMs will also incur expenses of recruiting specialized labor to work on multiple projects simultaneously. Furthermore, they must also undertake independent R&D projects without government funding to develop key technologies in the respective domains. All these activities require extensive financial resources.

Missiles and Missile Defense Systems Market Segments

The key categories in the missiles and missile defense systems market are missiles and missile defense systems. The missiles segment is further categorized into strategic land-attack missiles, anti-ship missiles, anti-radiation missiles, conventional land-attack missiles, anti-air missiles, and anti-tank guided missiles (ATGM). Likewise, Platform Based MDS, and Missile Based CIWS are the two major categories of missile defense systems.

In 2023, the MMDS market is expected to be led by the missiles segment and is expected to continue doing so during the forecast period. The missiles segment will be driven by multiple high-value procurement programs worldwide and the rise in development & induction of low radar cross-section (RCS) missiles capable of operating at hypersonic speeds across militaries across the world.

Missiles and Missile Defense Systems Market Segmentation by Region

The report analyzes the missiles and missile defense systems market across several regions including Europe, Asia-Pacific, North America, Middle East, Africa, and Latin America.

The MMDS market over the forecast period is expected to be led by Europe. The Russia-Ukraine conflict has increased demand for missile defense systems in the region, as several NATO countries are now focusing on improving their missile defense capabilities in the wake of the growing missile capabilities of Russia. This factor is expected to drive the MMDS market in the coming years. Ongoing partnerships among allied countries in Europe for the joint production and development of missiles is a key trend that will assist in cutting down on procurement costs through technology sharing.

Head of Key Accounts, Saab AB

Having used several other market research companies, I find that GlobalData manages to provide that ‘difficult-to-get’ market data that others can’t, as well as very diverse and complete consumer surveys.

Marketing Intelligence Manager, Portugal Foods

Our experience with GlobalData has been very good, from the platform itself to the people. I find that the analysts and the account team have a high level of customer focus and responsiveness and therefore I can always rely on. The platform is more holistic than other providers. It is convenient and almost like a one stop shop. The pricing suite is highly competitive and value for our organisation.

I like reports that inform new segments such as the analysis on generation Z, millennials, the impact of COVID 19 to our banking customers and their new channel habits. Secondly the specialist insight on affluent sector significantly increases our understanding about this group of customers. The combination of those give us depth and breadth of the evolving market.

I’m in the business of answering and helping people make decisions so with the intelligence center I can do that, effectively and efficiently. I can share quickly key insights that answer and satisfy our country stakeholders by giving them many quality studies and primary research about competitive landscape beyond the outlook of our bank. It helps me be seen as an advisory partner and that makes a big difference. A big benefit of our subscription is that no one holds the whole data and because it allows so many people, so many different parts of our organisation have access, it enables all teams to have the same level of knowledge and decision support.

Head of Customer Insight and Research, Standard Chartered

This way we understand our customers’ business and also gain insight to our unique industry”

Head of Consumer Sensory Insights, Givaudan

GlobalData provides a great range of information and reports on various sectors that is highly relevant, timely, easy to access and utilise.  The reports and data dashboards help engagement with clients; they provide valuable industry and market insights that can enrich client conversations and can help in the shaping of value propositions. Moreover, using GlobalData products has helped increase my knowledge of the finance sector, the players within it, and the general threats and opportunities.

I find the consumer surveys that are carried out to be extremely beneficial and not something I have seen anywhere else. They provided an insightful view of why and which consumers take (or don’t) particular financial products. This can help shape conversations with clients to ensure they make the right strategic decisions for their business.

One of the challenges I have found is that data in the payments space is often piecemeal. With GD all of the data I need is in one place, but it also comes with additional market reports that provide useful extra context and information. Having the ability to set-up alerts on relevant movements in the industry, be it competitors or customers, and have them emailed directly to me, ensures I get early sight of industry activity and don’t have to search for news.
