Global Missile Market 2015-2019

About missiles

Missiles are self-guided, remotely controlled, and propelled weapons that can be used for naval, ground, and airborne strikes. They have the ability to accurately locate and hit the targets, which are thousands of miles away from the origin of the missile. They are segmented into four platforms: surface-to-surface, air-to-surface, surface-to-air, and air-to-air missiles. These are used for airborne, land-based, and naval strikes.

Technavio's analysts forecast the global missile market to grow at a CAGR of 3.05% over the period 2014-2019.

Press Release

Technavio Announces the Publication of its Research Report – Global Missile Market 2015-2019

Technavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Missile Market: BAE Systems, Denel Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, MBDA and Raytheon

Other Prominent Vendors in the market are: Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, Sagem and Thales

Commenting on the report, an analyst from Technavio’s team said: “One of the latest developments in the market is 3D printing. It helps in building military aircraft parts and missiles, offers design freedom, and helps lower production costs and time. Recently, the US Army Aviation and Missile Research Development and Engineering Center (AMRDEC) and NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center have invested in the R&D of missiles through 3D printing. This technology has resulted in cost-saving measures, weight reduction of missiles, and optimized performance of missile structures.”

According to the report, many countries are developing and upgrading their defense units by manufacturing or importing advanced combat aircraft and helicopters. An increase in the number of these military aircraft will simultaneously boost the development of missile systems.

Further, the report states that the ongoing missile programs have been severely affected by budget cuts and sequestration in developed regions such as the US and Europe since 2011. This has an impact on the production and procurement of spare parts and accessories for missile systems.
