Missile Guidance System Market By Launch Platform (Air-to-air, Air-to-surface, Surface-to-air, Anti-ship, Anti-tank), By Type (Command Guidance System, Beam Rider Guidance System, Homing Guidance System, Inertial Guidance System), By End User (Ground Vehicles, Combat Aircrafts, Ships, Submarines, UAVs): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2031
The missile guidance system is a missile control system which evaluates flight information, correlates it with target data, determines the missile's target trajectory, and sends the necessary commands to the missile's flight control system. The guidance system uses appropriate techniques such as global positioning system (GPS), a laser guidance beam, or an integrated inertial navigation system to locate a moving target in space and track that target until it hits the target accurately. The probability of destroying the missile in one shot increases when using guidance technology (SSKP). These components are found in anti-air, anti-ship, anti-submarine, anti-radiation and anti-aircraft missiles.
An anti-tank guided missile system whose primary purpose is to destroy tanks and other armored vehicles. Anti-tank missile systems incapacitate armored vehicles by penetrating and destroying thick armor. This missile guidance system allows infantry to overrun even main battle tanks (MBTs) with reactive armor, assembling armor from a distance without endangering the operator's life.
Ground-launched anti-tank missiles are designed to be launched from the ground onto armored vehicles or soldiers. These missiles can efficiently hit and defeat ground targets such as heavily armored tanks and other armored combat vehicles. Several governments have initiated development of advanced anti-tank missile systems which is expected to drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period. For instance, in April 2022, India carried out a successful flight test of the anti-tank guided missile Helina in Pokhran. The missile is guided by an Infrared Imaging Seeker (IIR) operating in the “lock on before launch” mode.
In February 2022, Bharat Dynamics Limited (BDL) signed a contract with the Indian Army for the manufacturing and supply of Konkurs-M anti-tank guided missiles to the Indian Army.
