Battlefield Management System Market Drivers and Opportunities
Need for Enhanced Situational Awareness Technologies
Situational awareness or being aware of the location is paramount during the battle. The battlefield presents several challenges to situation awareness, which poses a substantial threat to the dismounted soldiers as well as vehicles. This is due to the fact that enemies or militant forces are using advanced technologies, which creates a challenging situation for armed forces during decision-making. The primary goal of BMS is to overcome such challenges in an efficient way by helping soldiers to think and act quickly. The BMS is considered to increase situational awareness, especially in situations where enemy traceability is low. It helps recognize and understand critical elements of information regarding the activity of the team, particularly to a battlefield.
Growing Adoption of Advanced Technologies in Military Industry
The military sector across the globe is aiming to improve their land, airborne, and naval capabilities through several technological advancements. The rising cross-border activities and unavoidable situations across borders demand advanced technical systems. Artificial intelligence (AI), when integrated with weapons, drones, and other products is playing a major role in the military sector. AI research is ongoing in the fields of intelligence collection and analysis, command and control, and in a variety of vehicles, and it has been incorporated into military operations in Syria and Iraq. China is betting on AI to optimize its defence capabilities and is predicted to become the world leader in AI field by 2030. Currently, they are focused on using AI to make well-informed and faster decisions and on building variety of autonomous military vehicles. Russia is also active in the integration of AI for the military technologies, with a significant focus on robotics. Such factors are likely to provide future opportunities in the coming years.
