Market Overview:
The global military infrared thermal imager market is estimated to be valued at US$ 2,362.8 Mn in 2018 and is projected to reach US$ 4,711.5 Mn by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.9% from 2018 to 2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for uncooled infrared thermal imagers and refrigeration infrared thermal imagers across different applications such as military reconnaissance, surveillance and guidance, weaponry etc., in the global defense sector. Based on type, the global military infrared thermal imager market has been segmented into uncooled infrared thermal imager and refrigeration infrared thermal imager.
Product Definition:
A military infrared thermal imager is a device that captures images of objects using infrared radiation. These devices are used by the military to detect and track targets in difficult-to-see conditions, such as darkness or bad weather. The importance of these devices is that they allow the military to operate effectively in low-light or no-light conditions.
Uncooled Infrared Thermal Imager:
Uncooled infrared thermal imagers are primarily used for military applications such as surveillance, target detection and tracking. They operate at a specific wavelength of 7 to 14 microns and can detect objects based on their temperature. These devices have the ability to detect objects in total darkness or even when the object is invisible to the human eye.
Refrigeration Infrared Thermal Imager:
Refrigeration infrared thermal imagers are devices that detect objects in the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. They operate at a much longer wavelength than other imaging systems such as night vision or human eye, which makes them ideal for detecting objects that are hidden from view during normal day-to-day operations.
Application Insights:
The military reconnaissance, surveillance and guidance segment dominated the global market in 2017. The application of IRTI is gaining popularity due to its ability to provide enhanced target detection and identification in low-light conditions. Moreover, growing adoption of these devices by armed forces for ground-based military applications is expected to drive the demand over the forecast period.
The weaponry segment accounted for a significant share in 2017 owing to increasing use of infrared thermal imaging devices as an alternative solution compared with laser rangefinders or radar systems for gunnery fire control during night time operations. Furthermore, growing adoption across various end-use segments such as tanks, armored vehicles & carriers, self-propelled guns & howitzers and aircraft are expected fuel growth over the forecast period.
Other applications include marine activities such as vessel navigation.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global military infrared thermal imager market in 2017. The U.S. is a major contributor to the growth of this regional market owing to its extensive use in military applications such as target detection, targeting and night vision devices for ground troops and aircrafts.
The Asia Pacific regional market is expected to grow at a lucrative rate over the forecast period owing to increasing defense budgets by various governments across countries such as China, India, Japan.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for thermal imaging systems in military and defense applications
- Growing investments by governments for the development of advanced thermal imaging technologies
- Rising incidences of terrorism and cross-border conflicts across the globe
- Proliferation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and their increasing adoption in military operations
- Technological advancements in infrared detectors and camera modules that are driving down the cost of thermal imagers
