The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a large-scale impact on economies across the world. The global manufacturing of space launch vehicles, components, and assembly lines have been impacted. COVID-19 has led to several challenges for many industries. The Aerospace & defense industry is no exception to that. The budget allotted to the defense sector has been reduced by several countries due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This puts most research projects on hold. The export of Command and control systems to several countries in the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America has also been reduced. All these scenarios affect the development of Command and control systems.
Command and Control Systems Market Dynamics
Driver: Need for enhanced integrated situational awareness (SA) to support decision making
In any mission, situational awareness (SA) refers to the ability of decision-makers to identify, process, and analyze critical information from various sources. Thus, SA plays a key role in any air, naval, and military operation. Advanced intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance technologies integrated with command and control capabilities provide air, ground, and maritime solutions with real-time SA information for strategic decision making. High-bandwidth sensor processing, video management systems, secure network routers, and switches play a crucial role in effective decision-making in a mission. These products and solutions are essential for commanders to make informed decisions.
A significant increase in the adoption of situation awareness systems by governments in various countries around the world for the defense sector, an increase in the use of displays among end-users to process real-time videos, and remarkable benefits of GPS systems such as detection, immediate and precise situation awareness even in extreme weather conditions, and extensive use of control and command systems in the aerospace industries are expected to drive the growth of the C2 market.
Restraint: High development and maintenance costs
Command and control systems (C2) are vital in modern-day warfare. However, high costs need to be incurred in the development and adoption of these systems into the defense capabilities of any nation. C2 involves the integration of various air defense systems, command and control systems, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance systems into a working multi-domain platform. The development, installation, and maintenance of these systems are expensive. Thus, both, cost and time required for the development and deployment of these systems is a major factor restraining the growth of the command and control systems industry.
Opportunity: Demand for integrated command and control systems in transportation, healthcare, and law enforcement sectors
The rise in traffic and population has led to a high demand for efficient transportation and accident-safe systems. New generation communication-based train control (CBTC) systems can manage traffic and signaling systems. Various metro and high-speed train systems are adopting communication-based command and control technologies to manage traffic. Numerous law enforcement agencies can use command and control systems integrated with satellite-based GIS systems for monitoring wide areas, mapping crime, and identifying criminals through facial recognition software.
Command and control systems are also used for security management at airports and in the oil and gas industry. Varied applications of these systems are acting as an opportunity for the growth of this market. Companies such as Motorola Solutions, Sopra Steria, and Honeywell are some of the leading players in this market.
Challenges: in data storage and analysis
Command and control systems collect data from sources such as handheld sensors, electro-optic sensors, and radars. The data generated by these sources is enormous, and the size and volume of this data pose significant transmission and storage challenges. The handling of this big data can affect processing speeds in real-time and could result in damage to the decision-making process, thus threatening the execution of missions of armed forces.
Data storage is expected to be the biggest challenge for command and control systems. The data collected from various sensors is video- or audio-based and is required to be stored on various servers for analysis. The cost of on-premises servers is not affordable for small companies due to maintenance requirements. Cloud-based servers may be cheaper alternatives for small organizations but become costlier as the size of the stored data increases.
Software segment of the Command and control systems market by solution, to grow at highest CAGR during the forecast period
Based on solution, the software segment is projected to lead the command and control systems market from 2022 to 2027 due to heavy investments in upgrading the existing C2 infrastructure. The software segment is further segmented into physical security information management (PSIM), signaling & traffic management, infrastructure safety & security management, and military situational awareness.
Fixed command centres: The fastest-growing and leading segment of the command and control systems market, by installation base
Based on installation base, the command and control systems market is segmented into fixed command centers and deployable command centers. Fixed command centers refer to those C2 centers which are centralized and stationary. In the military sector, top-level commanders can command to lower echelons from the central C2 centers/bases. In the commercial sector, fixed command and control centers are used to control critical infrastructure, industrial sites, ports and harbors, and private airports which lead to demand in fixed C2 systems.
The North America market is projected to contribute the largest share from 2022 to 2027
