Land-based Smart Weapons Market Report by Product (Ammunitions, Missiles, and Others), Technology (Satellite Guidance, Radar Guidance, Infrared Guidance, Laser Guidance, and Others), and Region 2024-2032

The global land-based smart weapons market size reached US$ 4.6 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 8.7 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.25% during 2024-2032. The rising prevalence of geopolitical tensions, terrorism, and political unrest, the growing need for accuracy and precision in targeting enemy assets, and considerable rise in international arms trade represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Land-based smart weapons refer to advanced military weapons that are designed to engage targets accurately and effectively on land using advanced guidance systems and other technologies. Normally deployed on ground-based platforms, like vehicles or stationary launchers, these weapons can be used to execute tactical and strategic missions. GPS, laser designation, and other advanced guidance technologies are used to direct guided missiles, rockets, and artillery shells on land. The flight paths of these weapons can often be adjusted in real-time to avoid obstacles, make a clear aim, and ensure that the intended target is hit precisely. In addition to minimizing collateral damage and reducing personnel risks, land-based smart weapons improve mission effectiveness and minimize collateral damage. Land-based smart weapons can be cost-effective compared to other weapon systems, as they can reduce the number of munitions needed to achieve mission objectives. To minimize civilian casualties and minimize damage to infrastructure, these weapons are extensively utilized in urban environments.

Land-based Smart Weapons Market Trends:
The global market is primarily driven by the growing need for accuracy and precision in targeting enemy assets, including vehicles, buildings, and individuals. This can be attributed to the increasing geopolitical tensions and political unrest across the globe. In line with this, the rising military expenditure by governments of several countries to upgrade existing weapon systems and maintain military readiness is providing an impetus to the market. Moreover, numerous technological advancements, such as the integration of GPS, artificial intelligence (AI), laser guidance systems, and advanced sensors providing greater flexibility and lethality, are resulting in a higher uptake of these weapons. Besides this, the paradigm shift in modern warfare with a hybrid, asymmetric and urbanized nature is driving the demand for land-based smart weapons for minimizing collateral damage. The market is further fueled by the considerable rise in international arms trade and military modernization programs. Apart from this, the escalating incidences of insurgency and terrorism across the globe is leading to rising security concerns, which, in turn, is fueling the demand for advanced land-based smart weapons. Some of the other factors contributing to the market include rapid urbanization, inflating disposable income levels, implementation of stringent policies regarding national security, and extensive research and development (R&D) activities.
