The leading market players in the global C4ISR market primarily include BAE Systems, Elbit Systems, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, Harris, Rockwell Collins, CACI, Rheinmetall, and Saab AB.
C4ISR Market – Market Overview
C4ISR is a critical aspect of the defense departments of many countries. It provides guidance to military commanders in making key decisions by providing valuable information and integrating data from multiple sources. It is also used for communication between commanding officers and military units. It uses different technologies such as C2 systems for command and control, SDR, satellites, and other portable devices for communication; it uses airborne and maritime patrolling and SIGINT for ISR activities.
The C4ISR market has seen steady growth in recent years due to increased spending, especially in the Middle East, and the improving economic conditions of developing countries such as China and India. In addition, the growing use of these systems by civil and federal agencies for law enforcement purposes has also led to market growth. Integrated C4ISR systems are gaining significant acceptance in the market and their use is likely to increase in the next five years as these systems allow easy access to information to take decisions instantly. The defense sector is also increasingly turning to commercial satellites for cost effective communication. Another trend in the market is the growing use of UAV in ISR activities to gather critical information during wartime.
The use of advanced technologies has also enhanced the scope of the C4ISR market. These systems are now being used by civil government agencies to predict and minimize losses caused due to natural disasters. The governments of countries worldwide also use them in border control, protection of national security from cybercrimes and terrorist threats, and on a small scale in the aerospace industry.
commercial SATCOM. With COTS products, defense departments can get the latest technology for shorter lease periods, resulting in reduced costs. In 2013, the US DOD has allocated close to 40% of its communication satellite budget to SATCOM.
C4ISR Market – Competitive Analysis
In-house manufacturing capabilities, global networks, product offerings, investment in R&D, newer technology, and a strong client base are the key areas of competition between vendors in the global C4ISR market. The global economic recovery, growth of the C4ISR sector, development of new C4ISR systems, R&D and investments in cost-efficient systems, and a lucrative retrofit market have opened up opportunities for players to compete and grow. To survive and succeed in such an intensely competitive environment, it is crucial for vendors to provide cost-effective and high-quality solutions with the latest technology and materials.
Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman are two of the biggest players in the market that provide information and electronic systems. Their prime focus is on providing cost-effective, integrated, and reliable systems.
C4ISR Market – Regional Analysis
North America leads in global military expenditure and technological advancements, and thus generates a very high demand for C4ISR systems. Although, Canada makes some investments in the development of such advanced systems, yet the market is primarily dependent on the U.S. The region accounted for the largest share in the global market in 2016, primarily due to the presence of major manufacturers such as Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman in this region.
