  • C4ISR
  • Electronic warfare (EW)
  • Weapon

Global naval weapon systems market

In 2014, the weapon systems accounted for the largest share of 45.38% in the market. Growth in this market will be driven by extensive procurement of anti-ship missile defense systems and man-portable air-defense systems (MANPADS) by combat ships, which will attract new investments in the market during the forecast period.

In 2015, BAE Systems (News - Alert), a major vendor in the market, signed a contract worth USD 130 million with the US Navy to overhaul and upgrade six MK-45 naval gun systems for the US Navy Destroyer class (DDG) ships. The MK-45 naval gun system is an effective weapon for anti-surface, strike, fire support, and anti-air warfare combat. "During the same period, BAE Systems signed another contract worth USD 146.7 million with the US Navy to provide engineering and technical support to the US Navy combat and communications systems for the next five years," says Abhay Singh, a lead analyst at Technavio for the defense sector.
