M2 - Thu Apr 17, 4:37AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/mlxhfj/c4isr_market) has announced the addition of the "C4ISR Market (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance, Land Systems, Airborne Systems and Naval Systems) Forecasts 2014 - 2019" report to their offering. The global market is expected to reach $93.04 billion by 2019 The report provides in-depth analysis of the C4ISR market. It provides information about current trends in the market with respect to geographies, countries, platforms, technology and current market scenario. The research throws light on the current market trends, the drivers and restraints of this market, the challenges faced in the market and the opportunities that will impact the growth of this market. It analyzes the sub-segments of C4ISR namely, C4 (Command, Control, Communications & Computers) and ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance). It provides information about the trends of these two sub-segments across geographies and also provides information about the top spenders in the global C4ISR market. The report also provides information about the technology roadmap, which underlines the emerging trends for the C4ISR market and also highlights which technologies will dominate the market in future. Information about the product life cycle, the cost of procurement, integration and maintenance of the C4ISR systems across geographic regions is provided. The platform splits for airborne, naval, and land-based C4ISR systems are also discussed. A brief description of C4ISR competitive landscape is offered. Key Takeaways - The global market is expected to reach $93.04 billion by 2019. - The continued requirement for integrated solutions and interoperability will be the driving factors for the global market. - Joint Ventures have played a significant role in winning C4ISR contracts across the defense industry. E.g. ThalesRaytheonSystems (TRS) acts as a prime contractor for large-scale NATO programs and offers integrated solutions to meet the requirements of network-centric environments. - Austerity leading to defense budget cuts are said to continue at least till 2016 in two major western markets of the United States and the United Kingdom. - The primary market players are from the United States and Europe; these players have the technical know-how and are now looking towards the emerging economies. Transitioning Markets include most of the major emerging countries like Turkey, Indonesia, Australia and Brazil with a maturing or transitioning C4ISR capability and anticipated aggregate spend greater than $500 million. - The current trend of the market is its transition towards faster and efficient systems. The market requires more consolidation and integration of C4ISR systems across all platforms to gain competitive advantage. - Overall mission effectiveness increasingly depends upon C4ISR systems and services as modern warfare becomes more asymmetric in nature and thus increases the need for information gathering and subsequent sharing. Key Topics Covered: - Introduction - Executive Summary - Market Overview - Technology Trends - Regional Analysis - Country Analysis - Opportunity Analysis - Competitive Landscape - Company Profiles Companies Mentioned - Bae Systems - Boeing - Elbit Systems - Itt Exelis - L3 Communications - Lockheed Martin - Northrop Grumman - Raytheon - Rheinmetall Defence - Rockwell Collins - Saab - Thales Group For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/ml...isr_market

Global Airborne UAV Remote Sensing Market 2014-2018 with General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon Dominating
M2 - Wed Apr 16, 5:11AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7jhv38/global_airborne) has announced the addition of the "Global Airborne UAV Remote Sensing Market 2014-2018 with General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon Dominating" report to their offering. The Global Airborne UAV Remote Sensing Market will grow at a CAGR of 5.39 percent over the period 2013-2018. The Global Airborne UAV Remote Sensing market is a significant part of the Global Remote Sensing market. The report considers revenue generated from the sales of UAV remote sensing products mounted on airborne platforms only. The sales of UAV remote sensing products for use on spatial, terrestrial, and aquatic platforms are not considered within the scope of this report. The need for improved disaster management is one of the factors driving the growth of the Global UAV Airborne Remote Sensing Technology market. According to a World Bank report, more than 160 countries have a quarter of their population living in areas with a high mortality risk, which could mean that any calamity in such areas could result in high casualty numbers. Businesses can also be affected for example by loss of data. Hence, there is increasing demand for disaster management. Although the increasing adoption by the Defense, Intelligence, and Security industries continues to be a key growth driver, the market is witnessing the emergence and growth of new markets where remote sensing data can be used extensively. For instance, the Energy industry is using remote sensing technologies for better forecasting of sound detection with the help of technologies such as SODAR and LIDAR. In addition, the increased pressure from the operators to provide better insights related to power scheduling and lowering the cost of wind energy drives the market for remote sensing devices in the wind energy systems. Therefore, remote sensing devices are being used to enhance the operations of wind energy operators. Further, the report states that the high initial investment needed for this technology is one of the major challenges. Many SMEs and cost-driven companies are unable to adopt remote sensing technology for this reason. Vendors need to meet increasing demands from end-users and are making technological advancements in remote sensors, which is a costly and time-consuming process. Key Vendors - General Dynamics Corp. - Lockheed Martin Corp. - Northrop Grumman Corp. - Raytheon Co. Other Prominent Vendors - Honeywell Technology Solutions Inc. - ITT Corp. - Leica Geosystems Holdings AG Key Market Drivers/Challenges/Trends - Need for Improved Disaster Management. - Requirement for High Initial Investment. - Increased Usage of Remote Sensors in Wind Energy Systems. Key Topics Covered: - Executive Summary - List of Abbreviations - Scope of the Report - Market Research Methodology - Introduction - Market Landscape - Geographical Segmentation - Key Leading Countries - Buying Criteria - Market Growth Drivers - Drivers and their Impact - Market Challenges - Impact of Drivers and Challenges - Market Trends - Trends and their Impact - Vendor Landscape - Key Vendor Analysis For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7j...l_airborne
