Global Land Battle Management System Growth Opportunities

Increased Demand for Enhanced Situational Awareness and Developments in Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, and Communications Drive Transformational Growth

Militaries increasingly operate on congested battlefields that are expanding geographically and across domains while under persistent surveillance that requires fast-paced decision-making through effective situational awareness, intelligence gathering, and action targeting. The battlefield congestion has resulted in slower decision cycles and reactions. Globally, Ministries of Defense are procuring a range of new equipment to make soldiers more lethal and less vulnerable on the modern battlefield. The demand for new battle management systems (BMS) that provide increased situational awareness, tracking, and communication has risen.

The use of unmanned vehicle systems for ground soldiers has increased in recent years, resulting in improved protection, observation, lethality, survivability, and command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR). Ongoing BMS modernization programs lead to the procurement of new solutions and investments in new disruptive technologies, such as Big Data analytics and artificial intelligence. The growing use of unmanned systems drives research into secure line-of-sight and beyond line-of-sight communication networks, integrating robust security features to enhance anti-jamming and interception features. More applications are expected to use active self-healing networks, where a node can drop out from the network at any point without affecting performance. As sensor information increases, so will the required throughput.

Catering to individuals interested in the global land BMS market, this study identifies emerging trends and opportunity areas that will affect the BMS market as well as potential technology trends that add value to achieving security objectives. The study provides insights into the impact and evolution of future technologies during the forecast period (2020-2029), benefitting participants in the defense industry and relevant verticals as well as technology companies seeking new avenues to enhance their portfolio.
