Soldier modernisation focuses on providing soldiers with the necessary equipment and technologies that will make them future combat-ready. The soldier modernisation programs are conducted to enhance the capabilities of dismounted soldiers and bring effectiveness to army operations with a maximum survivability rate.
Soldier modernisation is a promising market for tech developers, especially in the field of open-source-based technology developers, SwaP-enabled component developers and integrators and cloud-based service providers. The markets will be growing for ruggedised computing systems that are easy to carry in a pocket or hands and have all the latest features and high-processing capabilities.
Public-Private initiatives are growing as soldier modernisation incorporates enterprise-grade solutions. To achieve these modern technologies all nations involved in soldier modernisation programmes are adapting commercial industries, start-ups, SMEs and research laboratories to develop modern products, components and services that will enable the ultimate goal of achieving modular, open-source but secured networks of sensor-based systems.
Interoperability is the upcoming trend where soldiers from different countries work as a team. For example NATO forces. When soldiers from different countries fight on behalf of NATO the simple need will be the devices they use should be of the same company or should be interoperable.
Therefore, all nations will be discarding the old devices for new wirelessly networked, modular, SwaP-enabled, and based on open-source architecture devices. Thus the market is huge. There are accelerated procurements of night vision systems, weapon or head-mounted thermal weapon sites, and weapon-mounted laser-guided target systems that are gaining demand.
But it is not easy. For any nation, the number of dismounted soldiers is the largest of other Army domains. In such an era where most countries are following the soldier modernisation trend, it is obvious to see large quantity purchase orders. Therefore, while projecting the forecasts for soldier modernisation it becomes a bit of a challenge on spreading that bulk order over the forecasted period. We project such orders based on their nature of order such as definite-quantity contracts, requirements contracts, and indefinite-quantity contracts.
