Military Navigation market was valued at USD 9,514.82 million in 2020 is estimated to register a CAGR of over 6.75% 2020-2030
Military navigation includes the capability to read maps, use a compass, and other navigational skills. It is also used to track the movements of groups in search operations and save injured soldiers, with a significant reduction of response time. Navigation systems are used for many military applications, such as land, air, and sea navigation and accurate positioning for a wide range of military applications.
Geopolitical instability and changing nature of warfare coupled with the increasing use of UAVs in the military are driving the growth of the military navigation market. However, technological issues and measurement errors in sensors are expected to restrain the market growth over the forecast duration. On the other hand, the introduction of new-generation air and missile defense systems is expected to provide a lucrative opportunity for market players over the forecast duration.
COVID-19 Impact vs  Opportunities for Global Military Navigation Market:
Up to half of all European defense spending is spent by the United Kingdom, France, and Germany. Because of the economic impact of the Covid-19 issue on overall budgets, these countries are likely to slash military spending in the near future, lowering the European average. The effect will endure a long time, and their combined defense spending in 2031 will be roughly USD 25 billion, which is less than planned. Several countries and armies are ensuring that soldiers assisting municipal and state governments in their fight against COVID-19 have the most up-to-date situational awareness and communication systems. Despite a drop in global GDP, worldwide military spending increased by 2.6 percent in 2020, according to SIPRI. Nonetheless, due to the worldwide economic downturn precipitated by the epidemic, defense funding may be reduced in the near future. This may pose a threat to the market for short term.
Market Dynamics:
Drivers:
Defense spending has risen as a result of geopolitical instability in numerous nations throughout the world. Countries like the United States and Russia, for example, spent a lot of money on submarine-launched ballistic missiles, nuclear weapons, long-range rockets, artillery systems, and other weapon systems during the Cold War era, which lasted from the 1950s through the 1990s. The number of current wars has also climbed significantly during the previous five years. The growth in defense spending is expected to drive the market in the forecasted period.
Opportunities:
New-generation missiles with advanced technology pose a significant danger to important infrastructure and platforms including military airbases and ships. Nuclear-capable ballistic missiles and high-speed cruise missiles are among the new advances. As a result of these improvements, there is a significant need for military navigation systems, which is driving the military navigation market.
Restraint:
The platform that is stable for their operation, inertial navigation systems (INS) rely on the connectivity of numerous mechanical elements with varied joints. To avoid any measurement mistakes, these joints must be frictionless. The inaccuracy due to friction grows with continuing use and wear and tear of these systems, which, in turn, impedes their performance.
Value Chain Analysis
The military navigation market is growing at a steady rate and is expected to upsurge in near future. This is due to geopolitical instability and the changing nature of warfare and the increasing adoption of UAVs in the military. The value chain analysis for military navigation comprises five major components which start with the research and product development followed by manufacturing of the products, distribution, sales, and end with post-sales services.
