  • The introduction of new satellite communication platforms, such as the US-based AEHF and MUOS systems, in conjunction with an increased and continuing emphasis on network centric and data orientated communications capabilities will drive demand for military satellite communications.
  • Shipborne communications spending will be characterized by demand for multiple radio systems.
  • Fast-jet platforms will represent the mainstay for the airborne radio market while the emerging UAV market will represent the fastest growth sector.
  • Terrestrial radio volumes will be dominated by handheld systems while the emphasis on maintaining net-centric communications through to the tactical edge will drive VSAT terminal shipments.

"Managing bandwidth in increasingly congested spectrum will be a key challenge in meeting future demands for data-centric military communications," observed Asif Anwar, Director of the ADS service. "This is leading to the use of higher frequencies, particularly evident in the military satellite communications segment with adoption of Ka-band."

"Other common themes across the military communications sector include a move towards multi-mode and multi-band radio solutions," added Eric Higham, North American Director for ADS.
