Next generation digital battlefield products are among the vital requirements of defense and intelligence agencies across countries. Hence, military and intelligence agencies are the key end users, showcasing more demand for such equipment. Some industry experts have noted that the COVID-19 pandemic has not majorly affected the demand for digital battlefield products. Companies such as Northrop Grumman Corporation (US), Lockheed Martin Corporation (US), and General Dynamics Corporation (US) received contracts for the supply of digital battlefield products to the defense forces of various countries in 2020, showcasing continuous demand during the COVID-19 crisis. Below are some important developments that showcase the increase in demand for digital battlefield in the defense sector during the COVID-19 crisis in the North American region.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant damage to the economic activities of countries across the world. The manufacture of digital battlefield products including systems, subsystems, and components has also been impacted. Although next generation digital battlefield products for defense applications are of prime importance, disruptions in the supply chain have halted their manufacturing processes for the time being. Resuming manufacturing activities depends on the level of COVID-19 exposure, the level at which manufacturing operations are running, and import-export regulations, among other factors.

Some important developments below showcase the increase in demand for digital battlefield in the defense sector during the COVID-19 crisis in the European region. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected deliveries of major platforms in India, such as HAL's supply to the Indian Armed Forces of Tejas combat aircraft and Dhruv helicopters. The delivery schedules of other platforms are also likely to be pushed back, particularly if lockdowns are extended. The Indian Ministry of Defence (MoD) has extended procurement deadlines due to the COVID-19 outbreak that will in turn affect the growth of digital battlefield product which are required in such aircrafts and helicopters.

Rising modernization of military equipment to strengthen defense forces is driving the growth of the digital battlefield products in defense applications

The rising focus of defense forces across the globe on modernizing their military equipment including digital battlefield products will propel market growth. For instance, in 2020, according to International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), defense spending across the globe was estimated to be over USD 1,830 billion, an increase of 3.9% over 2019. This could be attributed to the growing conflicts between countries, leading to efforts to strengthen their defense forces. In recent years, over nine major international conflicts have taken place, including the Syrian Civil War, the Saudi Arabia-Yemen conflict, US-Iran tensions, and India-China tensions. Such conflicts can lead to high procurement of innovative AI-enabled battlefield products and the incorporation of advanced technologies into existing military systems to make them highly efficient and reliable.

Several governments are establishing special departments or agencies to integrate AI capabilities into the existing equipment and focus on developing new capabilities in the digital battlefield. Initiatives by such agencies, including the Strategic Council for AI Technologies (Japan), The National Science and Technology Council (US), and the AI Council (UK), will in turn support the growth of the digital battlefield market over the projected timeframe.

Based on platform, the space segment of the digital battlefield market is projected to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period

In terms of platform, the market is segregated into airborne, land, naval and space. Based on CAGR, the space segment is projected to witness highest CAGR from 2020 to 2025.
