Market Overview:
The global lethal and non-lethal directed energy weapons market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for directed energy weapons for military and homeland security applications. Additionally, the increasing focus on research and development activities for the development of advanced directed energy weapons is also contributing to the growth of this market. Based on type, the global lethal and non-lethal directed energy weapons market can be segmented into lethal direct energy weapons and non-lethal direct energy weapons.
Product Definition:
Lethal and non-lethal directed energy weapons are types of weapons that use energy to disable or kill a target. Lethal directed energy weapons cause immediate death, while non-lethal ones can incapacitate or disable a target without causing permanent injury. The importance of lethal and non-lethal directed energy weapons lies in their ability to provide an alternative to traditional firearms, which can often result in fatalities. They also offer the potential for less collateral damage than conventional munitions, making them ideal for situations where civilian casualties are unacceptable.
Lethal Directed Energy Weapons:
Lethal directed energy weapons (LDEW) are also known as death rays or destructive beams. They are designed to damage or destroy the target by using high powered concentrated electromagnetic energy, which is projected into the target with high accuracy from a remote location. LDEWs can be used against personnel, vehicles and equipment in a variety of environments such as urban areas, forests and fields.
Non-Lethal Directed Energy Weapons:
Non-lethal directed energy weapons (NLDEW) are a class of directed energy devices that deliver high power, typically in the form of electromagnetic or laser radiation, with the purpose to cause temporary blindness, discomfort or death. The NLDEW market is in its nascent stage and has been characterized by limited product development and low investment activity. This can be attributed to the fact that non-lethal directed energy weapons have been conventionally viewed as an alternative to lethal ones (i.e.
Application Insights:
The land-based application segment led the market and accounted for more than a 38% share of the global revenue in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the increasing need for controlling criminal activities, terrorism and war zones. Furthermore, rising demand for non-lethal weapons by law enforcement agencies to control riots is also expected to drive the segment over the forecast period.
The homeland security application is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rapidly growing investments by governments across various countries in order to improve preparedness against emergencies such as cyberattacks and natural disasters. Moreover, technological advancements coupled with government initiatives are anticipated drive this segment further during future years.
Regional Analysis:
The North America region dominated the market in 2016 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The U.S. military is at the forefront of technological advancements in this region, which has resulted in a significant share of North America's lethal and non-lethal DEW market share.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be one of the fastest-growing regions owing to increasing demand from countries such as China, India, South Korea, Pakistan among others for law enforcement and domestic purposes (riot control). Moreover, rising geopolitical tensions between various countries are also expected to drive regional growth over the next eight years. For instance: In March 2018; China announced plans for using directed energy weapons on border disputes with India or against terrorist bases inside Myanmar (Burma).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for security and safety from terrorist activities and public places
- Growing concerns over the vulnerability of military forces to attack from enemies using advanced weapons systems
- Proliferation of small arms and light weapons (SALW) across regions, which is contributing to an increase in crime rates
- Rising demand for advanced technologies in law enforcement and homeland security agencies
- Technological advancements in directed energy weapons that are making them more reliable, accurate, and efficient
