Military Data Links Market Research Report: By Platform (Ground, Airborne, Naval, Unmanned Systems, and Weapons), by Application (Command and Control, Intelligence, Surveillance, & Reconnaissance, and Radio Communications), by Component (Terminals, Radio

In 2023, the military data links market was estimated to be worth USD 6,970.7 million. With a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.3% from 2024 to 2032, the military data links market is expected to increase from USD 7,325.5 million in 2024 to USD 11,084.4 million by 2032.

The increase in military spending worldwide, with a primary emphasis on modernising armed forces and creating network-centric warfare capabilities, is driving the market for military data links. It will be reinforced by the increased risks of electronic and cyberwarfare, which will increase the need for safe, dependable, and robust data link technology. However, some of the market's obstacles include the high cost of creating and implementing sophisticated data link systems and the lack of compatibility among the several data link standards and protocols used by different military units. There are a lot of opportunities due to the development of data connection technologies that are resistant to hacking and jamming, as well as the growing usage of unmanned aerial, ground, and maritime systems that depend on reliable data communications for command, control, and information exchange. Stakeholders who are taking advantage of the military data connections market's significant and ongoing growth in demand will recognise strategies to address these technological and interoperability problems.
