Smart Weapons Market to be dominated by Missiles through 2027
The need to procure
next-generation weapons and the rise in geopolitical conflicts and cross-border
issues are expected to drive the demand for the global smart weapons market in
the forecast period, 2023-2027.
According to TechSci Research report, “Smart Weapons Market - Global Industry Size,
Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2017-2027”, the global smart weapons market is anticipated to witness
impressive growth in the forecast period, 2023-2027. Smart weapons are also
known as precision-guided weapons. They are computer-guided weapons equipped
with radio, global positioning systems, and infrared and laser systems and are
highly accurate and precise. Due to their ability to hit the target precisely,
they are able to lower the collateral damage and lethality. They can be
operated by operating systems that can be located from far locations and,
therefore, are considered highly useful. A smart weapon system is expected to
transform war engagement and strategies. To enhance the safety of using smart
weapons, they are equipped with advanced technologies such as fingerprint
recognition, mechanical locks, magnetic kit, and biometric sensors. The global
smart weapons market is driven by the rise in terror activities, cross-border
disputes, and growing military usage of smart weapons. Also, the rise in the
demand for precision weapons and the use of smart weapons for tactical
operations are accelerating the demand for smart weapons across the globe.
However, the imposition of strict arming
regulations on the import and export of smart weapons may restrain the growth
of the global smart weapons market in the forecast period.

Smart Weapons Market"
The global smart weapons market is
segmented into weapon type, platform, technology, regional distribution, and
competitive landscape.
Based on weapon type, the market is
divided into missiles, munitions, guided projectiles, guided rockets, guided
firearms, and directed energy weapons. Missiles are expected to capture the
highest market share in the forecast period. The high demand for advanced
missiles from the defense sector is driving the segment demand.
Based on the platform, the market is
divided into air, land, and naval. The land segment is expected to witness the
fastest incremental growth in the forecast period. The rapid expansion of the
military forces and the growing defense expenditure are driving the sales of
smart weapons which can be used on land. Land weapons include the guided
weapons that are launched by shoulder-fired weapons, artillery, main battle
tanks, and precision firearms, amongst others. Also, the high demand for
anti-tank missiles to counter terrorist activities in developed countries is
expected to influence the market demand.
Based on technology, the market is
divided into laser, infrared, radar, GPS, and others. Laser technology is
expected to witness the highest growth over the next five years. Laser
technology is highly popular in weapons as they improve the accuracy and operational
efficiency of smart weapons.
On the basis of regional analysis, the
North American region is expected to hold the largest market share in the
forecast period. The market is driven by the launch of a number of defense
modernization programs and high defense expenditure by the leading authorities.
