The Soldier Modernisation Market 2009-2019 - examines current trends and future prospects for the soldier modernisation market. Those products and systems are becoming characteristic of 21st century warfare. Visiongain estimates that soldier modernisation applications generated a total $440 million in sales worldwide during 2008. This report shows how those revenues will rise steadily over the next decade.

This is a market that emerged in the 1990s, showed real technological and commercial promise this decade, achieving further growth and development during our report’s forecast period, 2009 to 2019. The US, France, UK and Germany are significant markets at present. Do you know how those and other markets will develop? This report answers that and other important questions. Also, will an ambitious programme in India make it a leading market toward the end of next decade? Although relatively late to emerge here, China and Russia are also making serious inroads in this promising worldwide market. This report reviews current programmes in leading countries, forecasting relevant sales in 12 leading markets in Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific.

The report divides the soldier modernisation market into the five segments identified by NATO: command and control, communications, computers, and intelligence (C4I); lethality; mobility; survivability; and sustainability. The Soldier Modernisation Market 2009-2019 tracks the growth of those market segments during the forecast period 2009 to 2019. This new visiongain defence report also charts how the 12 leading national markets are expected to fare during that period. The US, naturally, is at the forefront of the market currently, but is not guaranteed to remain predominant, since nations in Europe and the Asia-Pacific are also expected to make this a high-growth market. This report explains how each of those nations' sales and market shares will develop in this important emerging market.

The soldier modernisation market has marked advantages, especially given the continuing importance placed on foot soldiers. The current global financial situation will naturally weigh on governments’ minds, affecting some decisions in this market. However, soldier modernisation is a sector where high investment is expected to continue. After all, soldier modernisation seeks to enhance the capabilities of individual soldiers and small units, the key building blocks of military ground operations. This new visiongain report is essential reading for companies involved in the soldier modernisation market, as well as those wishing to contribute to it directly and indirectly.
