About Smart Weapons
Smart weapons are guided weapons that can accurately strike a stationary or mobile target. These weapons locate the targets with the help of various guidance systems such as cameras, infrared, GPS, lasers, and satellites. Since their inception, such weapons have continued to evolve and provide the military and paramilitary forces with high accuracy, wide range, and increased lethality. With the increasing modernization in weapon manufacturing technologies and the growing demand for accuracy of air-to-air, air-to-ground, or ground-to-ground strikes, many smart weapons have been developed. Advances in smart weapons would further enhance the capability and efficiency of the military units.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global Smart Weapons market to grow at a CAGR of 5.55% during the period 2017-2021.
