Key Drivers

The major factors fueling the armored vehicles market include a significant increase in defense budgets and surging demand for armored vehicles, primarily across the Asian countries. As per the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) report published in 2021, there was a 2.6% increase in the international defense expenditure in 2020 over 2019. The military expenditure increased to USD 1981 billion in 2020. Demand for armored vehicles is projected to increase at a tremendous rate across law enforcement, military, police, and other defense departments, because of the increasing deployment in internal security, reconnaissance, goods transportation in battlefields, and armed escorting. The growing emphasis on preventing soldiers from external and internal threats and growing awareness about the commercial security are projected to pave the way for market. Further, the adoption of unmanned combat vehicle will offer enormous growth opportunities for the players operating in the global market.

Moreover, growing demand for armored vehicles owing to the increasing incidences of cross-border conflicts and asymmetric warfare across the globe are strengthening the market growth. Other factors including the growing demand for armored vehicles aided by the militarization of law enforcement agencies and surging demand for bulletproof vehicles have propelled the market growth. However, a reduction in defense budgets might hamper the market growth. Moreover, a restricted budget for military spending, primarily in North America and Europe, will be a challenge to the armored vehicle industry over the forecast period. Rising prices of components, raw materials, vehicle assembly, and machining equipment are expected to restrain the armored vehicles market size.

Platform Segment Analysis

The combat vehicle segment is predicted to witness the highest CAGR over the forecast period, because of the surging demand for armored personnel carriers (APCs) and light armored vehicles (LAVs). Further, the Main Battle Tanks (MBTs) sub- segment is projected to lead the market over the upcoming years, owing to the intensifies government initiatives to strengthen the armed forces across various countries. For example, in March 2021, The Indian Defense Ministry entered into an agreement for INR 1,056 Crore (USD 144 million) with Mahindra Emirates Vehicle Armouring FZ LLC, an advanced armored solutions vendor for the military and paramilitary forces, to supply 1,300 Light Specialist Vehicles (LSVs) to the Army. The LSVs are incredibly agile and provide all-around defense against small arms fire.

The unmanned armored ground vehicle will witness a significant growth over the upcoming years (2021-2028), owing to their ability to operate in high-risk situations. Thus, the surging demand for the development and deployment of these unmanned military vehicles will bolster the segment’s growth.

System Segment Analysis

Armaments system is anticipated to witness a higher CAGR during the forecast period, owing to the growing demand for anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) launchers and remote weapon station.

The engine segment is forecast to hold a larger share over the upcoming years, due to the growing demand for strong diesel engines. Moreover, the increasing modernization programs of main battle tanks have bolstered the demand for turbine engines, driving the market growth.

Mobility Segment Analysis

The wheeled segment is predicted to dominate the market over the upcoming years, because of the increasing demand for 4X4 LAVs for transportation and intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance (ISR), applications. For example, in May 2020, Airdrop-capable four-wheeled armored vehicles launched by China North Industries Group Corporation (NORINCO) decided to enter the Chinese Air Force service.

Regional Analysis

Asia-Pacific is expected to hold a higher CAGR over the forecast period, owing to the rising incidences of terrorism, cross-border, and political instability. For example, In March 2021, the Indian Ministry of Defense entered into a contract for USD 144.79 million with Mahindra Defence Systems Ltd (MDSL) to offer 1,300 light specialist vehicles to the Indian Army. The regional growth is attributed to the increasing initiatives to reinforce military power to counter terrorism. Also, various government bodies are emphasizing on the development of the defense sector. For example, In 2022, Otokar, a Turkish bus and military vehicle producing companies, expanded its existence in the Asia Pacific. The firm exhibited its COBRA II tactical armored vehicle and ARMA 66 wheeled armored vehicle at the Defense Services Asia expo in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Moreover, countries including India, South Korea, and China are increasingly investing in R&D activities to introduce advanced and hybrid armored vehicles for improved maritime and border patrolling, which is forecast to propel the regional growth.

North America is estimated to grow at a faster CAGR over the upcoming years, because of the increasing expenditure on defense by U.S. government on the procurement and advancement of military vehicles. In addition, the existence of leading players such as Textron Systems, Oshkosh Defense, and General Dynamics Corporation, will bolster the market expansion.
