Military Segment to Dominate MEA GPS Anti-Jamming Market during 2019–2027

According to The Insight Partners market research study on “MEA GPS Anti-Jamming Market to 2027 – COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis and Forecast by Receiver Type, Anti-Jamming Technique, Application, and End User,” is expected to reach US$ 448.5 million by 2027 from US$ 331.9 million in 2019. The market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.0 % from 2020 to 2027. The report provides trends prevailing in the MEA GPS anti-jamming market along with the drivers and restraints pertaining to the market growth. Escalation in demand for GPS (Global Positioning System) technology in military applications and burgeoning demand for unmanned airborne vehicles and systems are the major factor driving the growth of the MEA GPS anti-jamming market. However, presence of other alternatives hinders the growth of MEA GPS anti-jamming market.

In case of COVID-19, MEA is highly affected especially Saudi Arabia. The outbreak is impacting the economic and industrial growth of the region in a substantial manner. The region comprises of many growing economies which are prospective markets for the demand of GPS anti-jamming providers, owing to the huge investments in infrastructure development, transportation sector, military expenditure, and growing manufacturing & construction industries. Due to these factors, the demand for GPS anti-jamming solutions in anticipated to be high in the region but the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak may hinder this demand in coming quarters due to decline in industrial activities and investments. The MEA region is also anticipated to be especially impacted as there is already pressure on oil-based economies in this region due to falling and uncertain oil prices. In addition to this, the factory lockdowns, business shutdowns and travel bans are further aggravating the economic problems of the countries present in the MEA region. Hence, the estimated decline in MEA’s economic growth and impact of COVID-19 on growth on various industries in the region is expected to negatively impact the demand of GPS anti-jamming systems in 2020 and 2021.
