North America Pyrotechnic Munitions Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis - by Product Type, Application, and End User

The pyrotechnic munitions market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 1,208.70 million in 2022 to US$ 1,676.74 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.6% from 2022 to 2028.

The military forces use pyrotechnic munitions for a variety of operations. Defense forces, including ground, naval, and air forces, across different countries have a significant volume of pyrotechnic munitions for various applications, such as illumination, signaling, simulation of battle noises, and effects. In addition, increasing border patrolling operations, military cargo operations, search operations, and other ISR operations involving aircraft or helicopter movements to carry out the mission are a few of the other factors propelling the pyrotechnic munitions market growth. Further, military forces, especially ground forces, use pyrotechnics markers to signal the helicopters to land in complex terrains, which are nearly invisible to helicopter pilots. The naval forces use many pyrotechnic markers for their respective operations, such as helicopter landing, search and rescue operations, or during training programs. Military exercises involve many pyrotechnic munitions to provide a real-life experience to the military personnel during training. Naval forces award multi-year contracts to the pyrotechnic marker/munition suppliers to deliver a substantial volume of pyrotechnic munitions/markers. For instance, in 2016, the US military announced that it awarded a contract worth US$ 8 million to HFI Pyrotechnics, wherein the company continued to supply its advanced marker product i.e., MK 25 MOD 4/5 to the US Navy and the US Airforce till 2021. The main purpose of procuring this product is for search and rescue operations by the naval and air force. Such instances are aiding the growth of pyrotechnic markers across different military forces, further augmenting the growth of the pyrotechnic munitions market.

With new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the North America pyrotechnic munitions market at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period.
