The report also contains interviews with expert members within the industry and details of more than 300 relevant MILCOM contracts and programs.
The report analyst said, "Our research indicates that the withdrawal of ISAF troops and fiscal pressures in a number of key markets, will lead somewhat to market contraction in the short term. However, the strategic realignment of military efforts and increased investment in SATCOM by a number of leading national markets will provide growth opportunities in these markets over the next decade. Furthermore, increased efforts of nations such as India, Brazil and Turkey to modernize their armed forces will provide significant new market opportunities. It is believed that a lowering of barriers to entry with technological advancements made over the past decade will create new demand for man portable communication and SATCOM systems. This new demand will drive growth within the market and mitigate any contraction in leading markets.”
