Abstract
The Global Airborne ISR Market 2009-2019 - our new defence report explains how and why this market will enjoy continued growth
Our latest defence report - The Global Airborne ISR Market 2009-2019 -
covers the exciting opportunities presented by one of the defence industry' s
growing markets. Our market study examines leading users of airborne
Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) systems, and explores the
operational requirements which are driving global growth in this sector. We
assess the commercial prospects and outlook for companies offering airborne
ISR systems. This analytical report defines the current state of the airborne
ISR systems market and discusses its potential for growth from 2009 onwards,
with market forecasting at the global and national levels.
Based on our research, global government spending in 2009 on airborne ISR
systems, both manned and unmanned, will total $16.4bn. We also analyse,
quantify and forecast the manned and unmanned airborne ISR systems markets
separately.
Worldwide, a multitude of factors are driving increased research, development,
procurement and deployment of airborne ISR systems. The success of airborne
ISR systems in Iraq and Afghanistan has reinforced their perceived importance
and is increasing demand for further airborne ISR capability. A shortfall in
persistent surveillance capability is also leading to increased interest in
unmanned systems capable of loitering for hours or even days. Furthermore, the
cancellation of the Satellite Based Radar (SBR) is also driving increased
interest in airborne ISR platforms, both manned and unmanned.
There are an increasingly wide range of airborne ISR systems ranging from
airliner based AWACS systems, to small turboprop aircraft, all the way down to
lightweight hand launched micro UAV systems. Within this report we analyse the
following sub-sectors of the airborne ISR systems market -
- Manned airborne ISR platforms
- Unmanned airborne ISR platforms
- Rotary wing airborne ISR platforms
- Aerostat airborne ISR platforms
- Ground Control Stations (GCS)
- Remote Viewing Terminals (RVT)
- Electro-Optical / Infrared (EO/IR) sensor systems
- Radar systems
We examine the combination of factors that are driving the increased
procurement and deployment of these airborne ISR systems by armed forces
around the world. Military decision-makers are developing operational
strategies to benefit from the latest technological breakthroughs in this
sector. Over our forecast period, we identify the ISR capability gaps that
armed forces are seeking to fill by increasingly deploying unmanned airborne
ISR systems.
The increasing investment in airborne ISR systems, both manned and unmanned,
has resulted in the market becoming one of the few recession-resistant
sub-sectors of the defence industry. We expect the airborne ISR systems market
to flourish from 2009 onwards, with significant rewards for successful
companies.
How much are individual countries planning to spend on airborne ISR systems
between 2009 and 2019? How are new technologies changing the nature of
airborne ISR systems? Who are the leading companies providing airborne ISR
systems and what is their market share? Where are the growth opportunities
over the next decade - in which geographical region and with which
technology? These critical questions and many more are definitively answered
in this comprehensive report.
