North America Military Optronics Surveillance and Sighting Systems Market

Market Introduction

The military optronics surveillance & sighting systems market in North America is further segmented into the US, Canada, and Mexico. In 2020, the North American military optronics surveillance & sighting systems market was dominated by the US with around 72% market share, followed by Canada and Mexico. These developed economies spend considerable portion of their GDP on military expenditure. As per the World Bank collection of development indicators, which is compiled from officially recognized sources, military expenditure in United States is reported to be around 3.74 % of its GDP in 2020. Advanced technologies like multispectral technology utilized in airborne optronics with surveillance system, track & search system and others is expected to accelerate the demand from military and defense sector across the region.

The US has the highest military expenditure across the world that makes North America largest market for military technologies. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, the worldwide military expenditure has witnessed a growth of nearly 4% wherein almost majority of countries have increased their military budget except few of the countries. Moreover, the US is known for its military power and highest spending in defense technology, accounted for around 29% of the total military optronics surveillance & sighting systems market in 2020, according to the study. Also, the US witnessed a decline of 3.4% in FY 2020 in the market owing to the pandemic challenges faced by the vendors for their operations during the FY 2020 where all other countries were also facing the demand and supply gap across their respective military technologies market. In addition, the military technology manufacturers observed drop in deliveries for new defense technologies, cancelation or rescheduling of military orders and deliveries. Also, labor shortage, and other factors that hampered their businesses and ability to deliver substantial volumes of new products to the customers. The increase in order backlogs and orders along with disrupted supply chain led to decline in the revenues of the military optronics surveillance & sighting systems market.       

Market Overview and Dynamics

The military optronics surveillance and sighting systems market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 6,147.19 million in 2021 to US$ 8,328.13 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.4% from 2021 to 2028.
