Industry Dynamics

Growth Drivers
The extensively surging government financing hikes in the military budget and high prevalence for modernization and military and equipment development especially in developing countries or countries with high geopolitical issues like India and China, are major factors expected t fuel the growth and military embedded systems market expansion.

Additionally, the significant rise in the adoption of multi-core processors, wireless technologies, and advanced revolutionary warfare systems is further anticipated to support the growth of military embedded systems. For instance, according to a report published by Stockholm International Peach Research Institute, the total military spending in India was around USD 76.6 billion, followed by US and China. India’s military spending in 2021 was 0.9 percent up from 2020 and 33 percent from 2012.

In the last few decades, the world is shifting towards the more complete integration of digital technology into the modern life, for empowering people digitally and influencing the transfer of technology, due to which electronics and communication industries have seen tremendous growth. As a result, there has been a remarkable growth in the numbers of convergence of cyber and optical technologies. Thus, the demand and growth of the global market for military embedded systems is growing conventionally.
