Military Laser Systems Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

Our researcher studied the historical data for years, with 2021 as the base year and 2022 as the estimated year, and produced drivers, trends, and challenges for the military laser systems market. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the military laser systems market demand has been impacted significantly. A holistic analysis of drivers will help in predicting exact demands and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.

Key Military Laser Systems Market Driver

The focus on the development of laser-based communication is one of the key factors driving the growth of the global military laser systems market. Military communication requires a high level of confidentiality as it revolves around significant tactical and strategic operations. Currently, the majority of such communications are carried out through radio frequencies that have limited radio spectrums. This hinders their large-scale application in the military sector and, therefore, defense establishments are focusing on the development of laser networks that provide higher bandwidth. For instance, TALON (Tactical Line-of-Sight Optical Network), a laser-based communication system, was developed in 2013 under a Future Naval Capabilities program funded by the Office of Naval Research in the US. This type of development has proved that laser communications can operate up to a thousand times faster than conventional radio-frequency-based communication systems. The higher-frequency wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum eliminate the need to use congested radio-frequency bands. Also, the technology provides higher security as laser beams have a low probability of interception.

Key Military Laser Systems Market Trend

The emergence of the directed-energy atmospheric lens concept will fuel the global military laser systems market growth. The Laser Developed Atmospheric Lens (LDAL) concept was revealed in January 2017 by experts at the military facility of BAE Systems in Warton, Lancashire. This LDAL concept has been evaluated by the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (operated by the Science and Technology Facilities Council) and an optical sensors specialist company LumOptica. It works by temporarily and reversibly simulating a naturally occurring phenomenon that changes the Earth’s atmosphere into a lens-like structure to magnify the path of electromagnetic waves, such as light and radio signals. LDAL is a very complex and innovative concept that mimics two existing natural phenomena, namely, the reflective properties of the ionosphere and desert mirages. LDAL simulates both these effects by using a high-pulsed power laser system and a phenomenon in physics called the Kerr Effect to temporarily and reversibly ionize or heat a small region of the ionosphere in a structured way. This can create atmospheric lenses and mirrors by exploiting the laws of refraction, reflection, and diffraction.

Key Military Laser Systems Market Challenge

The limitations of current laser weapon systems are a major challenge for the global military laser systems market growth. Lasers beams travel at the speed of light, which is faster than the speed of any physical object and can hit the target within fractions of a second. However, before the laser beam is directed at a target, the targeting system of the weapon must locate the target. The weapon’s tracking system then guides a beam in the direction of the motion or projectile of the target and must hold it at a precise point on the target for a long-enough duration to burn a hole through it. As some weaponized attack systems, such as Cruise missiles and ballistic missiles, travel at very high speeds, current laser weapon systems fail to fix the precise point on such targets. These limitations have proved to be a challenge to the deployment of laser weapon systems against advanced weapon systems. A significant amount of investments, R&D, and innovations are being focused on the advancement of current laser weapon system technologies. This will lead to the development of more capable laser weapon systems, but it will also increase the cost of such technologies.

This military laser systems market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth.

COVID-19 Impact and Recovery Analysis

During the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, the aerospace and defense industry experienced a slowdown in demand for orders and disruptions in production operations as customers deferred the delivery of new aircraft and workers were sent home due to the imposition of lockdowns. On the defense side, contractors were better positioned, as the impact of COVID-19 was less in the short-term to mid-term than in aerospace. However, in 2021, the initiation of large-scale vaccination drives led to the lifting of lockdown and travel restrictions, which led to the resumption of supply chain activities. Such factors are expected to drive the market during the forecast period
