The APAC laser weapon systems market is expected to grow from US$ 231.58 million in 2021 to US$ 913.67 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 21.7 % from 2021 to 2028.



China, India, Japan, and South Korea are major economies in APAC. Rising development of laser weapon system for fighter aircraft is expected to escalate the APAC laser weapon systems market. Laser weapon systems are gaining major demand from countries holding high military power across APAC region such as China and India. Increasing development in weapons and rising number of drones in military operations are creating demand for advanced defensive weapons. A large number of drones and advanced weapons can create severe damage owing to which the demand for high-precise laser weapon systems is rising. Increasing investment by various nations and vital R&D activities performed by the market players create new opportunities for the growth of the APAC market. A laser weapon system for fighter jets is being developed by Lockheed Martin, bringing a new level of advancement for warfighters. The laser weapons in fighter jets are enlacing the ability to shoot down missiles in flight and get an advantage over adversaries. The airborne laser weapon system creates a massive opportunity, such as destroying enemy aircraft, defending a friendly aircraft from attack, and improved ground targets, for the APAC market growth. According to the People's Liberation Army (PLA) news, China's military is procuring and developing airborne laser pods. The country is trying to integrate airborne lasers in their defense fleet for both offensive and defensive purposes. Thus, the burgeoning development of laser weapon systems for fighter aircraft is expected to drive the APAC laser weapon systems market

In case of COVID-19, APAC is highly affected specially India. The COVID-19 emerged in China and has affected several nearing countries such as South Korea, India, and others. Countries like China, India, South Korea, Japan, and others are increasingly moving towards the advancement of the military and defense. The COVID-19 has minimal impact on the market than other nations, as the defense contractors in the countries continued to operate, however, due to shortage of workforce, the year-on-year growth rate of development of products and technologies declined. China being the largest military spender in the region witnessed havoc outburst of COVID-19 virus during Q1 of 2020, which led the government to shut down the country, thereby, tampering the entire supply chain. This reflected loss in annual sales among the Chinese defense electronics and defense equipment manufacturers. China is also the largest DEW systems (including LaWS) developer and manufacturer in APAC. The massive outbreak of COVID-19 has reflected limited developments in the laser weapon systems industry.

With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the APAC laser weapon systems market. The APAC laser weapon systems market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.

Research Methodology

Once we receive the confirmation from primary research sources or primary respondents, we finalize the base year market estimation and forecast the data as per the macroeconomic and microeconomic factors assessed during data collection.

  1. Data Analysis:

Once data is validated through both secondary as well as primary respondents, we finalize the market estimations by hypothesis formulation and factor analysis at regional and country level.

  • 3.1 Macro-Economic Factor Analysis:

We analyse macroeconomic indicators such the gross domestic product (GDP), increase in the demand for goods and services across industries, technological advancement, regional economic growth, governmental policies, the influence of COVID-19, PEST analysis, and other aspects. This analysis aids in setting benchmarks for various nations/regions and approximating market splits. Additionally, the general trend of the aforementioned components aid in determining the market's development possibilities.

  • 3.2 Country Level Data:

Various factors that are especially aligned to the country are taken into account to determine the market size for a certain area and country, including the presence of vendors, such as headquarters and offices, the country's GDP, demand patterns, and industry growth. To comprehend the market dynamics for the nation, a number of growth variables, inhibitors, application areas, and current market trends are researched. The aforementioned elements aid in determining the country's overall market's growth potential.

  • 3.3 Company Profile:

The “Table of Contents” is formulated by listing and analyzing more than 25 - 30 companies operating in the market ecosystem across geographies. However, we profile only 10 companies as a standard practice in our syndicate reports. These 10 companies comprise leading, emerging, and regional players. Nonetheless, our analysis is not restricted to the 10 listed companies, we also analyze other companies present in the market to develop a holistic view and understand the prevailing trends. The “Company Profiles” section in the report covers key facts, business description, products & services, financial information, SWOT analysis, and key developments. The financial information presented is extracted from the annual reports and official documents of the publicly listed companies. Upon collecting the information for the sections of respective companies, we verify them via various primary sources and then compile the data in respective company profiles. The company level information helps us in deriving the base number as well as in forecasting the market size.

  • 3.4 Developing Base Number:

Aggregation of sales statistics (2020-2022) and macro-economic factor, and other secondary and primary research insights are utilized to arrive at base number and related market shares for 2022. The data gaps are identified in this step and relevant market data is analyzed, collected from paid primary interviews or databases. On finalizing the base year market size, forecasts are developed on the basis of macro-economic, industry and market growth factors and company level analysis.

  1. Data Triangulation and Final Review:

The market findings and base year market size calculations are validated from supply as well as demand side. Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries. In case of supply side validations, revenues of major companies are estimated (in case not available) based on industry benchmark, approximate number of employees, product portfolio, and primary interviews revenues are gathered. Further revenue from target product/service segment is assessed to avoid overshooting of market statistics. In case of heavy deviations between supply and demand side values, all thes steps are repeated to achieve synchronization.
