Directed Energy Weapon Market Dynamics:

Driver: Rising demand of DEW to conduct successful combat operations

The rapid development of high-energy laser weapons and the adoption of high-energy laser weapons to deal with the threat of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has become one of the advanced directed energy technologies. In 2021, these weapons were increasingly being integrated into military platforms such as navy, airborne, mobile vehicles, and satellites. In recent decades, multiple defense manufacturers and integrators have been researching and developing laser weapons and are increasingly becoming more operational. In September 2020, Raytheon Technologies Corporation built and delivered a high-energy laser weapon system to the US Air Force for use in upcoming experiments and training activities overseas. In 2020, The Boeing Company declared the delivery of its first upgraded Compact Laser Weapon Systems to the US Department of Defense. In February 2021, SIGN4L signed an MoU with MBDA and CILAS to explore co-development in high-energy laser weapons systems as part of an advanced counter-unmanned aerial vehicle (C-UAV) strategy.

Restraint: Restrictions on anti-personnel lasers

DEWs are not authoritatively defined under international law, nor are they currently on the agenda of any existing multilateral mechanism. Several legal regimes would apply to directed energy weapons. The prospect of directed energy weapons raises questions for several bodies of international law, most notably those that place restrictions on the use of force. Some DEWs are classified as non-lethal or less-lethal weapons, with proponents setting them apart from lethal weapons. Low-energy laser weapon systems are one of the most controversial topics in defense, as they may be used for anti-personnel purposes. The use of blinding weapons was banned in 1995 by the UN decision (Protocol on Blinding Laser Weapons (1995), annexed to the Framework Convention on Prohibitions or Restrictions on the Use of Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW)). Thus, various DEW systems developed for military application in warfare have not been put into service. For instance, the Active Denial System developed by Raytheon Technologies Corporation was introduced to the US Army. Although the US DoD shipped the ADS to Afghanistan, deployment was halted due to humanitarian laws and other factors. The Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Directorate (JNLWD) of US is currently working on the deployment capability of the ADS without violating international laws.

Opportunity: R&D in advanced DEW technologies

Improved system reliability is a crucial factor in selecting a directed energy weapon by any country. The incorporation of advanced hardware units to help gather and distribute capability across various defense platforms like combat vehicles. These directed energy weapons are deployed in strategic locations to increase detection rates. State-of-the-art directed energy weapons with high accuracy have led countries with border disputes and regional threats to rely on these advanced directed energy weapons to assist in border protection. Thus, rising R&D in advanced directed energy weapons technologies provides a wide range of opportunities in defense sector applications.

Challenge: Integrating existing systems with new technologies

The integration between conventional and modern devices is difficult, which adversely affects the efficiency of directed energy devices. In some cases, new devices have different protocols that make these difficult to adopt. Integration of legacy systems with new technologies is time and effort-consuming and may distract an organization from its core business activities.

Based on technology, the high energy laser (HEL) segment register large share in base year

Based on technology, the directed energy weapon market has been segmented into high-power microwave (HPM), high energy laser (HEL), sonic weapons, and electromagnetic weapons. A laser is a device that emits light through a course of optical amplification based on the stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation. A laser is different from other sources of light as it emits light that is coherent. Spatial coherence allows a laser to be focused on a tight spot, enabling applications such as directed energy weapon systems. A large amount of focused energy is delivered by high-energy lasers to a faraway target at the speed of light, thereby causing structural and incendiary damage. High-energy laser systems use photons, or light particles, to carry out military missions and civil defense. This directed energy technology enables the detection of threats, tracking during maneuvers, and positive visual identification to defeat a wide range of threats, including unmanned aerial systems, rockets, artillery, and mortars. In August 2022, Lockheed Martin Corporation delivered the high-energy laser to US Navy. The high energy laser weapon was installed on warships, which is a 60KW+ laser and is officially known as High Energy Laser Integrated Optical-Dazzler and Surveillance (HELIOS).

Based on Product, the directed energy weapons market is dominated by lethal products

Based on product, the directed energy weapon market has been segmented into two categories, namely lethal and non-lethal weapons. The lethal products focused on military applications include rail guns, electromagnetic bombs (e-bombs), plasma cannons (electrothermal accelerator), microwave guns, plasma grenades, navy laser cannons, gun-launched guided projectiles, automatic shotguns, and several others. Huge investments are being made in R&D as well as the demonstration and testing of lethal directed energy weapons.

The Asia Pacific region is projected to Grow at highest CAGR during the forecast period

China, India, Japan, Australia, South Korea, and Rest of Asia Pacific have been considered in the Asia Pacific directed energy weapons market. Rest of Asia Pacific includes New Zealand, Philippines, and Singapore. China and India are the leading manufacturers of directed energy weapons in this region.

The demand for the directed energy weapons market has increased in recent years due to rapid economic development, increasing security threats, and increased border disputes. The military spending of China, Japan, and India has been growing in recent years due to the increased possibility of being targeted by terrorist attacks.

Similarities Between Sonic Weapons and Laser Weapons as Directed Energy Weapons

Directed energy weapons are weapons that use concentrated energy, such as lasers or sound waves, to disable or destroy a target. Sonic weapons use high-intensity sound waves to incapacitate or disorient a target, while laser weapons use concentrated beams of light to disable or destroy a target.

Both types of weapons are considered directed energy weapons because they focus a specific type of energy onto a target in a concentrated manner. This allows them to be highly effective in their intended purpose, whether it be disabling a target's electronics or physically damaging a target.

Potential Future Applications of Sonic Weapons and Laser Weapons

Sonic weapons have been used for crowd control and non-lethal applications, and their effectiveness in these areas may make them a popular choice for law enforcement and military organizations. However, the use of sonic weapons has also raised concerns about their potential for misuse and human rights violations.

Laser weapons, on the other hand, have been developed primarily for military applications, such as anti-aircraft defense and anti-missile defense. As the technology behind laser weapons continues to improve, it is possible that they will become more widely used in military operations.

The future of sonic weapons and laser weapons in the directed energy weapons market will likely depend on a variety of factors, including technological advancements, changing military needs, and evolving ethical and legal considerations.
