Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Submarine-launched Missile Market 2017-2021" report to their offering.

The analysts forecast the global submarine launched missile market to grow at a CAGR of 4.74% during the period 2017-2021.

Global Submarine Launched Missile Market 2017-2021, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

One trend in the market is 3D printed submarine-launched missiles. 3D printing is an evolving technology, which can be used to create and design a number of things. By using 3D printing technology, conventional methods like computerized numerical control (CNC) cutting, mold manufacturing, or canvas printing can be bypassed. This technology can be used to print electronics directly onto 3D surfaces, such as on rocket engines, missile fins, and their guidance systems. It also reduces the size and weight of submarine-launched missile systems.

One driver in the market is rapid procurement of Tomahawk SLCMs. The Tomahawk land attack missile (TLAM) is an all-weather, long-range, and subsonic cruise missile, manufactured by Raytheon. The missile comprises a W80 nuclear warhead and is launched from the US Navy surface ships (RGM variant) and submarines (UGM variant). These missiles can fly into heavily defended airspace more than 1,000 miles away from the point of launch and precisely strike high-value targets with minimal collateral damage.
