Military laser rangefinders are devices in determining the distance of an object with the help of a laser beam. The handheld rangefinders have a limited range and play a pivotal role in surveillance and reconnaissance missions. Other rangefinders have varied features and are attached to weapons or vehicles. The global military laser rangefinder market report by Market Research Future (MRFR) estimates the value and demand of these devices for the period of 2018 to 2025 (forecast period). The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the market has been explored as well.
Market Scope
The global military laser rangefinder market is estimated to witness 6.70% CAGR during the forecast period.
