AbstractLow Product Differentiation Makes Cost and After-sales Support Key Success Factors for Vectronics Systems Suppliers
The European vehicle electronics systems ("vectronics") market is a highly fragmented and segment market, dominated through direct penetration or subsidiaries by a few large prime contractors. Increasingly, European procurement agencies are looking to endow commanders with the ability to locate, identify, track and engage enemy forces at ever-greater distances and to operate their units under adverse conditions. Cost, nevertheless, plays a significant role in determining successful bids. To combat the dual challenges of cost sensitivity and falling procurements, the large defence primes are increasingly looking to move up the value chain and provide systems solutions in a progressively networked combat environment. This has opened new windows of opportunity for software manufacturers offering low-cost and scalable technologies that leverage strong IT backgrounds to provide top-quality, customised, yet affordable software solutions for battle management systems.
This Frost & Sullivan research service aims to forecast major trends in the total European market for vectronics systems for the period 2005-2014. The study’s strategic benefit lies in the fact that it explores technological innovations and opportunities in a rapidly diminishing European vehicle electronics market. It further tracks the development of the value chain in this market.
Need for Superior Situational Awareness in the Battlespace Drives Vectronics Systems
"The drive to modernise the armed forces in Europe has seen vectronics playing an increasingly central role in generating small-unit battlespace situational awareness," notes the analyst of this research service. "By incorporating situational awareness tools such as command, control, computers and intelligence systems (C3I) as well as battle management systems (BMS) into armoured vehicles, European procurement has laid the groundwork for networking its forces in the near future." This essentially means that future armoured fighting vehicle purchases will be equipped to enable the driver, commander and the crew to locate potential enemy forces from a distance, as well as operate at night.
Political will to minimise casualties through improved situational awareness and well-protected forces has never been stronger, and this is the biggest factor driving the vectronics market. By enabling timely and accurate target acquisition and confirmation, vectronics facilitate positive visual identification and thereby, eliminates the risk of civilian casualties.
Vehicle Electro-optics and Infrared Systems to Account for Bulk of Revenues
Expected to attract an estimated spending of $5.5 billion during the 2005-2014 period, the vectronics market is likely to be the primary driver of the land systems market in Europe. As the European Union (EU) moves closer to its goal of achieving a ‘networked’ force, the uptake and upgrade of armoured fighting and multipurpose vehicles protected with vectronics is expected to increase. In fact, the expected substantial increase in spend between 2007 and 2012 can be largely attributed to the significant uptake of Tranche 1 modernised armoured vehicles by France, Germany and the Netherlands.
Vehicle electro-optics and infrared systems are together expected to contribute the bulk of revenues at 52 per cent. BMS and remote overhead weapons stations (ROWS) are expected to follow closely, contributing 15 per cent and 12 percent of projected revenues, respectively.
