Global Military Electro-optical & Infrared System Market by System (Electronic Support Measure (ESM) System, Imaging System, Targeting System), Sensor Type (Scanning Sensor, Staring Sensor), Technology, Platform - Forecast 2023-2030

The Military Electro-optical & Infrared System Market size was estimated at USD 12.31 billion in 2022, USD 13.22 billion in 2023, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.04% to reach USD 22.87 billion by 2030.

Military electro-optical and infrared (EO/IR) systems are a type of technology used by the military for various purposes, including surveillance, reconnaissance, targeting, and situational awareness. EO/IR systems contribute to the safety and effectiveness of military operations by enabling military personnel to recognize better and respond to the risks and opportunities in their surroundings. Military EO/IR systems are required for improved situational awareness due to the growing awareness of territorial conflicts and border issues. These systems are utilized to increase the precision and accuracy of military operations by assembling them on various military platforms, including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). On the other hand, military EO/IR systems are vulnerable to camouflage capabilities and electronic interference and experience performance issues in extreme weather conditions. However, as an opportunity, aerostats equipped with EO/IR systems are using types of intelligence, such as human intelligence or signals intelligence, to improve the efficiency of military operations by decreasing the reliance on EO/IR equipment for target identification.
