This research service focuses on the US Department of Defense (DoD) electronic warfare market. Representative programs, contracts, and market participants are included to form an overview picture of DoD spending on this technology. An analysis of research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E); procurement; operations and maintenance (O&M); and a variety of services are included in this study, along with contract activity for the 2020 calendar year. DoD electronic warfare activities spending consists of Army, Navy/Marine Corps, Air Force/Space Force, and Joint Service spending plans. The base year for financial spending is 2019, and the market forecast is from 2020 to 2025. Artificial Intelligence spending for the fiscal year 2021 DoD budget request is the foundation of this research. The 2021 DoD request is notably higher than that of 2020 and may encounter opposition from both sides of the political aisle. The new research details the defense departments, agencies, and industry partners that offer the best opportunities for companies trying to participate in the US DoD electronic warfare market.

The research includes market trends and future concepts that shed light on some spending numbers and the importance of participating in certain projects and programs. The research assists in understanding the government’s focus and the services it will likely require in the future. The market research presented was obtained from secondary and primary sources and combines quantitative and qualitative information. Insights are provided on current and anticipated program spending and industry leaders, which will help firms identify growth opportunities and formulate go-to-market strategies to assist them with improving their relative market share. The purpose of this study is to highlight the US DoD's electronic warfare spending and technology trends.

Research Methodology:
This research service is based on secondary and primary research data. Information has been garnered from existing reports and project material within the proprietary database, including data and information gathered from technical papers, specialized magazines, seminars, and Internet research. Interviews have been conducted over the phone by senior consultants/industry analysts with original equipment suppliers, regulation authorities, and distributors. Primary research accounted for approximately 25% of the total research.
