Military Laser Systems Market to record USD 2.15 Bn incremental growth; Driven by a focus on the development of laser-based communication -- Technavio

NEW YORK, Oct. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The military laser systems market size is expected to grow by USD 2.15 billion, accelerating at a CAGR of 7.36% between 2021 and 2026. To estimate the size of the report, Technavio has tracked the recent trends and developments in the aerospace and defense industry. Some of the factors considered include commercial aircraft production, the volume of air passengers and freight traffic, revenue generated by vendors, defense budget, and capital investments by airlines among others.

The market is driven by the focus on the development of laser-based communication. The majority of communications that currently happen in the military sector are carried out through radio frequencies that have limited spectrums. However, the lower bandwidth of radio signals is limiting their large-scale adoption in the military sector. This is driving the need for the development of networks that provide higher bandwidth. 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 for the use of congested radio-frequency bands. These networks also provide higher security as laser beams have a low probability of interception. All these factors are contributing to the growth of the global military laser systems market.

As per Technavio, the emergence of the directed-energy atmospheric lens concept will have a positive impact on the market and contribute to its growth significantly over the forecast period. This research report also analyzes other significant trends and market drivers that will influence market growth.

The Laser Developed Atmospheric Lens (LDAL) is a very complex and innovative concept that mimics two existing natural phenomena, namely, the reflective properties of the ionosphere and desert mirages. 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. The concept was revealed in January 2017 by experts at the military facility of BAE Systems in Warton, Lancashire. It uses 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. This trend is expected to have a positive impact on the growth of the global military laser systems market during the forecast period.

However, the limitations of current laser weapon systems will reduce the growth potential in the market. Lasers beams travel at the speed of light and 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 the beam in the direction of the motion or projectile of the target. The tracking system must hold a precise point on the target for a long-enough duration to burn a hole through it. However, some weaponized attack systems travel at very high speeds and the laser weapon systems fail to fix the precise point on such targets. Such limitations are hindering the deployment of laser weapon systems against advanced weapon systems. Hence, a significant amount of investments are being made in R&D to focus on the advancement of current laser weapon system technologies.
