Global Airborne Weapon Delivery Systems Market - Analysis, Technologies & Forecasts to 2021 - UCAVs Becoming a Low-cost Alternative to Conventional Airborne Attack Platforms - Research and Markets

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Airborne Weapon Delivery Systems Market 2017-2021" report to their offering.

The global airborne weapon delivery systems market to grow at a CAGR of 8.12% during the period 2017-2021.

One trend in the market is preference for sensor fusion technology. As the demand for sensor-based systems is increasingly growing within defense agencies, the requirement for engaging a more skilled professional for data parsing is also getting increased to reduce the amount of time consumed during the translation of raw data into an actual set of information.

According to the report, one driver in the market is UCAVs becoming a low-cost alternative to conventional airborne attack platforms. Attack UAVs or UCAVs can fire smaller guided bombs that are significantly cheaper than the large air-to-surface missiles. At the same time, some of the air-to-surface missiles lack in range and lethality. The small bombs ensure greater operational flexibility while allowing the commanders to use them on targets like hostile ground troops or unarmored military trucks like supply vehicles.
