Analysts’ Viewpoint on EMEA Dismounted Soldier Systems Market Scenario
The EMEA dismounted soldier systems market is growing steadily due to the rise in advancements in future integrated soldier systems. The weight of batteries of different devices contributes significantly to the total weight carried by a soldier. Advanced dismounted soldier systems are catering to higher energy demand with minimum weight, as high weight influences the logistic burden. Future European dismounted soldier systems are expected to be influenced by advanced technologies in information and communication technology (ICT), artificial intelligence (AI), and cloud computing. Leading players are focusing on developing advanced soldier systems by following the latest trends in the dismounted soldier systems market and offering innovation in terms of lethality, mobility, power generation, protection, and training.
The term ‘dismounted soldier system’ refers to a set of items that a soldier uses to carry out the given task. These tools can be worn on a soldier’s body and head, stored in his knapsack, or attached to his weapon system. This system ensures a digital map view of the tactical situation, information regarding troop deployment, order reception and issuance, reporting and threat visualization, etc. The system for dismounted soldiers can operate autonomously. It is essential to reduce the weight of loads and improve army ergonomics in order to increase mobility. Dismounted soldier systems with integrated sensing & navigation and better multi-spectral sensors offer collaborative targeting and engagement. They also offer improved Fire Control Systems (FCS) for increased accuracy and lethality. This helps enhance the smart weapons market growth. In the medium to long term, it would be critical to utilize and rely on technology and unmanned systems due to challenges in recruiting enough military personnel in European countries owing to the aging population. Key dismounted soldier system players from Europe are now moving toward emerging economies such as India, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and a few countries in the Middle East. Increase in adoption of fully integrated soldier systems, joint dismounted soldier systems, and battlefield management systems depicts the future of dismounted soldier systems.
Being able to see at night or in poor visibility situations such as fog or haze is a big tactical advantage in the battlefield. Soldiers wearing night vision equipment can identify and engage the enemy far more quickly than they could if they were only relying on their natural vision. They can also navigate around barriers and spot potential booby traps that are hidden under normal circumstances. Night vision equipment is becoming more affordable and widely available; however, it may fall into the hands of various terrorist organizations. Militaries of various countries seek to purchase newer and more powerful night vision equipment to maintain their technological edge. For instance, the U.S. Army's Family of Weapon Sights connects NVGs (night vision goggles) wirelessly to weapon-mounted thermal sights, enabling soldiers to quickly engage targets without switching between equipment.
Major companies are obtaining contracts for various night vision equipment to deliver end-to-end solutions that meet customers’ mission-critical needs. For instance, in December 2021, Thales Group launched XTRAIM, a new weapon sight offering day/night camouflage capabilities.
A soldier would not need to look "down" or "elsewhere" to obtain situational awareness (SA) information with the next-generation Augmented Reality (AR) Head Mounted Display (HMD); instead, the SA data and video would be brought into his field of view. The efficacy and capabilities of soldiers have risen due to the adoption of networked data and advanced weapon sights. The AR HMD technology has the potential to significantly improve a soldier's situational awareness, target identification and acquisition, and engagement.
Several players are developing advanced Augmented Reality (AR) devices for infantry military to gain a competitive edge in the market. For instance, in June 2021, Thermoteknix, a thermal imaging and night vision specialist, launched a new Augmented Reality (AR) Tactical Interface Module (ARTIM) with enhanced real-time data sharing capabilities, delivering superior night-time surveillance and combat capabilities to troops on the battleground.
In terms of type, the EMEA dismounted soldier systems market has been classified into Augmented Reality (AR) Head Mounted Display (HMD), Pre-Shot Threat Detection (PTD) system, smart ballistic glasses, Command and Control Information Systems (C2IS), smartwatch, laser target acquisition system, Blue Force Tracking (BFT) device, IP radios, tactical terminal tablet, and others. The tactical terminal tablet segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. Tactical terminal tablet enables forces to dominate the battlefield by empowering soldiers with full dismounted situational awareness through net-centric integrated information systems. The device offers real-time situational awareness and can withstand harsh environmental conditions. It is lightweight, and available in wearable computer designs owing to the increase in technological advancements. It comprises an advanced multi-touch display, computing and communications components, built-in GPS, IMU and digital compass. The need for digital soldiers and tactical communications in the military sector is expected to drive the demand for tactical terminal tablets during the forecast period. Widespread deployment of such tablets in various critical mission applications is expected to augment the EMEA dismounted soldier systems market during the forecast period.
In terms of application, the EMEA dismounted soldier systems market has been classified into enemy tracking, reports and analysis, mission planning, navigation, and 3D visualization. The enemy tracking segment accounted for significant share of the market in 2021. It is estimated to maintain its share throughout the forecast period.
The target designator for enemy tracking enhances the safety and operational effectiveness of dismounted units in the field, providing the force commander with situational awareness and an up-to-date snapshot of the exact location of force members in the vicinity. Such devices can track four to 100 persons and support an extended range (up to several kilometers). Such devices can also offer accurate tracking when GPS is unavailable.
Europe held the largest share of the EMEA dismounted soldier systems market in 2021, owing to the presence of key market players, rise in adoption of technological advancements, and availability of lucrative opportunities for manufacturers in countries such as France, Germany, Russia, Turkey, the U.K., Israel, and Italy.
For nearly three decades, Germany has been striving to modernize the equipment used by its infantry soldiers. The IdZ (Infanterist der Zukunft) system is currently being developed, deployed, and adopted by the German Army. According to the SIPRI, Germany was the third largest military expenditure spender in Central and Western Europe in 2021; the country spent around US$ 56.0 Bn or 1.3% of its GDP on its military. The U.K. is making headway in the area of soldier modernization by deeply investigating and investing in unmanned systems, electronic warfare, and cyber capabilities, as well as by overhauling the C4ISR (command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance) equipment and structures used by the British military.
The EMEA dismounted soldier systems market is consolidated, with the presence of a few large-scale vendors that control majority of the share. Several companies are investing significantly in comprehensive research and development activities, including new product development. Expansion of product portfolios and mergers and acquisitions are the key marketing strategies for dismounted soldier systems adopted by market players.
