Connectorized Microwave Modules (Military) – Free-World Industry & Markets

Connectorized Microwave Modules (Military) – Free-World Industry & Markets

The main ojectives of this five-section, two-appendix report are to identify business opportunities in the technology sector of connectorized military microwave modules. A major driving factor leading to this report has been the consequence of the Russian invasion of the Ukraine. Packed with detail this report is an essential tool covering 17 classes of products ranging from broadband amplifiers, through high-power amplifiers, transceivers and DRFMs. In total the markets for all 17 classes of products (combined) are worth $billions annually and growing continually from 2021 (base year) to 2029. A total eighty-two OEMs are identified and several of these are profiled. A substantial majority are headquartered in the USA. In this report the “Demand Side” is given particular prominence and appropriate ‘Tier1’ and ‘Tier2’ companies are profiled, including several specific EW and radar systems. Some relevant details are provided concerning NATO and Israel. The methodology used to generate this report is mainly ‘bottom-up’ for the data and was generally similar to that employed for other reports published by Engalco-Research.

Crucially important report on microwave module markets.

Tier1 and Tier2 companies profiled:

Airbus, Analog Devices, BAE Systems, Boeing, CPII, Crane Aerospace & Electronics, Elbit Systems (including ELISRA), Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI – including ELTA), Kratos Defense (including Kratos General Microwave), L3Harris, Leonardo, Lockheed-Martin, Mercury Systems, Northrop-Grumman,Rafael Advanced Defense Systems (“Rafael”), Raytheon Technologies, Smiths Group, Teledyne Technologies, Thales Group
