Military Radio System Market by Type (Manpack Radios, Vehicular Radios), by End User (Naval, Ground Force, Air Force), by Region (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East & Africa, Latin America) - Forecast till 2027

Military Radio System Market Scenario

Global Military Radio System Market is expected to grow during the forecast period owing to rapid advancements in the handheld radios, and advancements in technologies such as software-defined radios (SDR). Military radios assist during military exercises as they help in communicating confidential information to military personnel. Factors such as increasing military expenditure in developing countries such as China and India and growing military exercises and operations, of several countries are driving the market growth.  Furthermore, development of advanced and lightweight military radios such as Harris Corporation is also driving the market growth. For instance, in 2018, Harris Corporation launched a new advanced two-channel handheld radio, The AN/PRC-163 Army Radio. The radio simultaneously delivers voice and data networking to the army personnel. However, issues associated with interoperability and absence of regulatory norms might hamper the growth of the market.
