Ballistic protection means the protection of a person’s body against attacks from projectiles of different shapes and sizes.  It is used majorly by homeland security people, military, and law enforcement. It includes Personal protection equipment such as boots, gloves, body armors, and ballistic helmets as well as structural reinforcements for vehicles used for marine, air and land platforms.

Ballistic Protection Market Analysis:

Ballistic protection platforms offer protection against threats in the battlefield and war, which the soldiers and combat vehicles usually face. They are significant in law enforcement and defense forces to reduce the casualties and enhance the power of protection in the borders and the war.

Increased awareness towards the protection of armed forces and safety is the major driving factor for the global ballistic protection market.

Increased awareness among the governments to enhance active and passive safety measures to withstand against the terror attacks and protect their military, citizens, and paramilitary forces is leading the demand for ballistic protection market in the estimated period. Significant measures towards decreasing the weight of ballistic protection equipment is also a major factor driving the market globally. The performance of soldiers is affected due to the heavy load they carry, which includes navigation tools, range finders, radios, and optronic systems along with the weight of these systems. The effect on soldiers performance due to heavy weights is encouraging manufacturers to look at lightweight alternatives. The enhanced priority of nations across the globe towards national safety and security is leading to a rise in demand for ballistic protection equipment.

Rising costs of equipment and stringent regulations from government bodies are the key restraints.

The increased cost of ballistic protection equipment is a major hindrance for the demand in the forecasted period. The heavyweight of any equipment which reflects on mobility and productivity of the military is also a potential restrain for the market growth. The rise in costs is majorly due to the need for expertise in the manufacturing process. Alongside, Government regulations are stringent and vary across different nations. All these have a negative impact on the global ballistic protection market.

Various nations opting for lesser weight equipment is a potential opportunity for manufacturers to gain higher profits.

The use of advanced materials to lower the weight of equipment to improve the movement of defenses by governments is a major opportunity for investors. The US army is already experimenting with advanced materials that could improve the body and vehicle armor that are light in weight and provide better protection against different forms of threats. They include Fragments, bullets, mines, and IEDs. Increasing demand for multipurpose equipment is one of the opportunities.

Ballistic Protection Market, by Platform:

The airborne segment is lucrative in the forecasted period.

The airborne segment is expected to grow at the highest rate globally.  The airborne segment has helicopters, aircraft, and unmanned aerial vehicles. There is a huge demand for aircraft among aviation platforms, which are utilized by the military. Demand is especially from countries like China, the US, Japan, and South Korea as their military expenditures raising over the years.

Ballistic Protection Market, by Material:

Aramid is expected to show increased demand in the estimated period.

Aramid segment had the largest revenue share and contributed half of the total global revenue of the Ballistic protection market. Aramid is obtained from scented polyamides and has attributes such as flexibility, strong resistance, and less weight. Due to these characteristics, aaramid is ideal for safety of boundary troops as a shooting protective material. The most popular products made of aramid are Kevlar, Nomex, and Twaron. This material is used in the preparation of helmets, body armor, tactical vests, and vehicle armors.

Ballistic Protection Market, by Region:

The Asia Pacific is anticipated to show lucrative opportunities in the estimated period.

North America is currently the largest revenue generator for the ballistic protection market, and the demand is expected to continue. This demand is due to US Governments interference in countries like Syria, Iraq, and an increase in terror attacks.

Asia Pacific region is anticipated to have lucrative opportunities in the forecasted period. This growth can be attributed to a focus on strengthening defense by China and India. Due to this reason, both the governments are spending continuously on building advanced weapons and ballistic protection equipment for their army and security forces like the police. The continuous threats among nations like India, China, Pakistan, and Korea are the major reason behind the growth of the ballistic market in this region. The entry of enemy groups into the homeland territories and use of explosives, which are deadly for instance, IEDs and Bombs are created an increased demand for ballistic protection systems in Asia-Pacific.

Key Players in Ballistic Protection Market:

The major players in the ballistic protection market are Honeywell International, BAE Systems, Teijin Aramid, EI DuPont De Nemours, and Royal TenCate NV. The strategies followed by the major players in this market are new applications development and lightweight product manufacturing. These strategies provide a competitive edge for the players.
