Military Multi Domain Operations Software Market Global Report 2026

The military multi domain operations software market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $5.59 billion in 2025 to $6.35 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing requirement for coordinated joint military operations, increasing complexity in multi-domain warfare scenarios, upgrading of command and control platforms, rising adoption of digital battlefield communication technologies, enhancement of defense situational awareness systems.

The military multi domain operations software market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $10.6 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing integration of AI-enabled decision support systems within defense operations, expanding deployment of autonomous and unmanned combat platforms, rising need for real-time cross-domain data fusion capabilities, growth in cloud-based defense command infrastructure, and strengthening adoption of network-centric warfare capabilities across armed forces. Major trends in the forecast period include AI-powered multi-domain battle management platforms enabling real-time coordination, cloud-native multi-domain operations software supporting distributed defense missions, interoperable cross-domain command and control systems, data fusion-driven situational awareness platforms for military operations, and edge-enabled battlefield analytics enabling low-latency decision-making.

The growing defense modernization programs are expected to fuel the expansion of the military multi-domain operations software market in the coming period. Defense modernization programs refer to government-led initiatives designed to upgrade, restructure, and equip armed forces with advanced technologies, systems, and capabilities to counter evolving security threats. The increase in defense modernization programs, driven by rising geopolitical conflicts and emerging hybrid warfare challenges, is encouraging governments to strengthen defense infrastructure for improved operational efficiency, real-time battlefield coordination, and multi-domain mission capabilities. The expansion of defense modernization programs is boosting demand for advanced multi-domain operations software, as armed forces increasingly require integrated digital solutions to coordinate and manage simultaneous operations across land, sea, air, space, and cyber domains. For instance, in March 2023, according to the Offices of the Under Secretaries of Defense (OUSD), a US-based Department of Defense authority, the fiscal year 2024 cybersecurity and acquisition (CA) budget of $13.5 billion is aimed at advancing the roadmap established under the Digital Modernization Strategy (DMS) and the Department of Defense Cyber Strategy. Therefore, rising defense modernization programs are driving the growth of the military multi-domain operations software market.

Leading companies operating in the military multi-domain operations (MDO) software market are focusing on developing AI/ML-powered solutions, such as autonomous mission management platforms, to enhance real-time situational awareness, accelerate operational decision-making, and strengthen coordination across land, air, sea, cyber, and space domains. Autonomous mission management platforms are software-based systems that coordinate, control, and optimize autonomous military assets and missions across multiple operational domains with minimal human intervention. For example, in June 2025, Lockheed Martin, a US-based aerospace and defense company, launched its AI Fight Club initiative to support the development and testing of artificial intelligence-enabled combat systems for defense operations. The platform enables rapid integration of AI models into operational command environments, supports secure simulation-based testing for multi-domain missions, and enhances real-time tactical coordination through scalable data-driven decision support capabilities.

In September 2024, Safran S.A., a France-based company specializing in aerospace propulsion systems, defense electronics, avionics, and navigation technologies, acquired Preligens SAS for $243 million (€220 million). Through this deal, Safran S.A. aims to reinforce its artificial intelligence capabilities in intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR), enabling advanced data analytics and enhanced real-time situational awareness for multi-domain military operations. Preligens SAS is a France-based artificial intelligence company providing automated geospatial intelligence solutions, which are an important component of military multi-domain operations software systems.
