Market Share of Sea Based C4ISR Industry
The sea-based C4ISR market is semi-consolidated with the major players, like Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics Corporation, Northrop Grumman Corporation, L3Harris Technologies Inc., and BAE Systems plc, accounting for a major market revenue share.
The market leaders are trying to solidify their positions through constant R&D and signing long-term contracts with the global defense forces to modify their product offerings as per the end-user requirements. In March 2022, Leonardo was selected by the Qatari Emiri Naval Forces (QENF) to provide a Naval Operation Centre (NOC) to provide command, control, and coordination of operations at territorial water, Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), and adjacent waters simultaneously to enhance cooperation with various national agencies in charge of maritime security.
Also, in January 2022, Elbit Systems Sweden was awarded a contract to supply Combat Management Systems to the Royal Swedish Navy, following a competitive tender process with a contract from the Swedish Defence Material Administration (FMV) to supply Albatross Combat Management Systems (CMS) for the Royal Swedish Navy. The majority of the companies saw an increase in the sale of C4ISR products leading to higher revenues.
The sea-based C4ISR market is expected to experience a lot of activity during the forecast period, primarily due to the ongoing territorial disputes in the China Sea. The US, Japan, South Korea, India, as well as the UK are expected to be a few of the biggest spenders during the forecast period. China and India have been investing heavily in developing their sea-based warfare capability with modern ships, aircraft carriers, and submarines. This rapid military expansion of China has forced neighbors to upgrade and procure equipment to tackle the Chinese threat in the Indian and the Pacific Ocean.
