The global precision-guided munition market size was accounted for around USD 33 billion in 2021 and anticipated to register a significant CAGR of over 5% by 2027. The continuous expansion of the defense budget by various economies around the world and the increasing adoption of advanced combat techniques are some of the major factors to drive the market growth. In May 2021, the President’s defense budget request for FY2022 is $715 billion, up $10 billion from FY2021’s $705 billion. Furthermore, technological advancement and the development of new-generation air and missile systems are further expected to fuel the market over the forecast period.

Market Drivers:

Increasing Defense Expenditure: Defense expenditure by governments worldwide is a significant driver for the precision guided munition market. Countries are allocating substantial budgets to modernize their defense capabilities, enhance military readiness, and invest in advanced weapon systems like precision guided munitions. The focus on enhancing military effectiveness and achieving operational superiority drives the demand for PGMs.

Growing Threat of Terrorism and Asymmetric Warfare: The evolving nature of warfare, including the rise of terrorism and asymmetric threats, has led to an increased demand for precision guided munitions. PGMs offer high accuracy and precision, enabling military forces to effectively engage targets with minimal collateral damage. The ability to precisely strike targets while minimizing civilian casualties is crucial in counter-terrorism and asymmetric warfare scenarios.

Technological Advancements: Technological advancements have greatly improved the capabilities and effectiveness of precision guided munitions. Enhanced guidance systems, advanced sensors, improved navigation and targeting technologies, and miniaturization of components have contributed to better accuracy, longer ranges, and increased versatility of PGMs. These advancements make PGMs more reliable, efficient, and lethal, driving their adoption in modern warfare.

Shift towards Network-Centric Warfare: The shift towards network-centric warfare, where various military assets are connected through advanced communication networks, creates a greater demand for precision guided munitions. PGMs can be integrated into networked systems, enabling real-time target identification, sharing of situational awareness, and coordinated strikes. This interoperability enhances military effectiveness and reduces the risk of friendly fire incidents.

Focus on Minimizing Collateral Damage: Precision guided munitions offer the advantage of minimizing collateral damage compared to traditional munitions. Their high accuracy and target-specific capabilities reduce the risk of unintended harm to civilians and critical infrastructure. This aspect has become increasingly important for military forces and governments, leading to a greater adoption of PGMs.

Geopolitical Tensions and Regional Conflicts: Ongoing geopolitical tensions and regional conflicts drive the demand for precision guided munitions. Countries facing security threats or engaged in active conflicts seek to enhance their defense capabilities, including precision strike capabilities, to deter adversaries, protect national interests, and ensure operational superiority. These factors contribute to the growth of the precision guided munition market.

Advantages in Air-to-Ground and Ground-to-Ground Operations: Precision guided munitions are widely used in air-to-ground and ground-to-ground operations. They provide increased effectiveness in engaging targets with high accuracy, especially in complex environments or urban warfare scenarios. The ability to precisely hit targets, mitigate collateral damage, and reduce the risk to friendly forces makes PGMs a preferred choice in modern military operations.

Export Opportunities and International Defense Collaboration: The precision guided munition market benefits from export opportunities and international defense collaboration. Countries with advanced PGM capabilities often export these systems to allied nations, contributing to market growth. Additionally, defense collaboration programs and joint development projects among countries facilitate the exchange of expertise, technologies, and resources, further driving the precision guided munition market.
