Market Leaders and their expansionary development strategies
In June 2018, Northrop Grumman Corporation announced that it has closed the acquisition deal of Orbital ATK Inc which is one of the global leaders in aerospace and defense technologies.
In September 2019, Raytheon Company received a contract worth USD 80 million from the U.S. Naval Sea Systems Command for the production of Mark 54 Lightweight Torpedo.
Influencing Trend:
Growing Adoption of Lightweight Long Range Torpedoes and Development of Nuclear Torpedoes
Market Growth Drivers:
Growing Military Expenditure Across Different Regions, Rising Fleet of Marine Vessels and Attack Submarines, Rising Demand for Advanced Weapon Systems for Retrofitting of Old Marine Fleet of Vessels and Submarines Propelled by Increased Investments in Torpedo Upgrade Programs and Increasing Demand for Lightweight Torpedos in Order to Carry More Number of Weapons in a Marine Vessel, Submarine, Aircraft, and Helicopter
Challenges:
The challenge for the Navy's research and development community is not only to improve the current generation of torpedoes but also to exploit new technologies for the next generation of underwater weapons and Higher Vibrations in Conventional Torpedoes Lead to Lower Range and Deflected Directions
Restraints:
The use of ballistic missiles in the submarine and increased cyberattack
Opportunities:
Growing Acquisition of Warships, Aircraft, and Helicopters by Naval Forces of Different Regions Such as China, India, and Japan will Create Huge Opportunities for Market Vendors in the Near Future and Development and Adoption of Anti-Torpedo Torpedoes Will Create the Future Opportunities
Analyst View
The players in this market are focusing on establishing long-term contracts and relationship with defence forces of various countries in order to remain competitive in the market. For instance, the Pentagon awarded a contract worth USD 127 million to three different United States firms for torpedoes of the US Navy, United Kingdom (UK), Canada, Netherlands and Norway. Moreover, the component manufacturers in this market are also active in terms of relationship building with torpedo manufactures and defence forces. For instance, in June 2019, Lockheed Martin Corporation secured a contract worth USD 57 million from Naval Sea Systems Command of the United States to provide modification for the production of Mk 48 Mod 7 guidance & control (G&C) sections and Mk 48 Mod 7 Common Broadband Advanced Sonar System (CBASS)
