Abstract
Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) evolved over the past few years from a
tactical "uisance" threat to a strategic problem - challenging the tactics,
strategies and warfighting capabilities of established armies worldwide. The
result should be a reavaluation and major changes to military doctrines world
wide, impacting outlooks, makeup and budgets for decades to come.
This world-changing trend is described, examined and analyzed in detail in
this new report:
The report arrives at some surprising conclusions about the ways the IED
threat will influence the evolution of militaries in general and counter IED
technologies in particular. The report examines existing and evolving
strategies and technologies and highlights the advantages and disadvantages of
adopting each technology.
Among others, the new research report focuses on the following areas:
- Global Counter-IED Business Opportunities - New market entrants
with a technological edge are presented with market entry opportunities in
several multi-billion dollar markets
- Analysis of 71 current and future counter-IED technologies by tactical
segments (e.g., Prediction, Detection, Prevention, Neutralization and
Destruction, Mitigation)
- 2008-2012 Global Procurement, Services and Upgrade Market forecasts
(2008-2012 aggregate market totaling $23.2 billion with an outlay of $29.4
billion)
- 2008-2012 Global market forecasts analyzed and segmented by country
(e.g., U.S., Europe, India, Israel, China, Arab Word)
- Global Counter-IED Market Growth opportunities segmented by country
