Guidance Insights – Ammunitions Market
Based on guidance, the Ammunition Market is bifurcated into guided and non-guided. The guided segment is expected to dominate the Ammunition Market in 2022, and it is also projected to retain its dominance during the forecast period as well. The growth of the guided ammunitions segment is attributed to huge demand for precision guided missiles and large adoption of guided mortar systems. Advancements in positioning system technologies, such as semi-active lasers, radar homing, inertial navigation systems (INS), and global positioning systems (GPS), are favoring the guided Ammunition Market growth. In addition, the compatibility of the positioning system with the missile's nuclear warhead is likely to boost its inclusion in ammunition. For instance, in May 2022, EMCORE Corporation received its first order to provide multiple SDI170 MEMS inertial measurement units (IMUs) for precision-guided ammunition by a major international weapons system manufacturer. In November 2021, HALCON, a part of the EDGE Group that is a leading manufacturer and supplier of precision-guided weapons, received a contract worth US$ 880 million from the UAE Armed Forces for its Thunder and Desert Sting range of precision-guided munitions.
The Ammunition Market is highly fragmented due to the presence of large number of Ammunition Market players across the world.
