The tactical headset market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.63 billion in 2023 to $2.83 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The growth witnessed in the historical period can be ascribed to initiatives in military modernization, increased engagement in counter-terrorism operations, adoption by law enforcement and special forces, emphasis on comfort and durability, and the integration of advanced features.
The tactical headset market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.67 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be credited to a heightened emphasis on communication security, a rising demand from the military sector, a shift towards lightweight and ergonomic design, the integration of AI and voice recognition, and the development of smart and adaptive headsets. Key trends expected in the forecast period encompass interoperability and compatibility, the adoption of voice-activated controls, wireless connectivity and mobility, a focus on comfort and wearability, and improved durability and reliability.
The anticipated growth in the tactical headset market is expected to be propelled by an increase in military expenditure. Military expenditure encompasses spending on weapons, weapons systems, operations, maintenance, personnel, and other specific military equipment. Higher government investments in the military sector support the advancement of various military facets, including military communications, for which tactical headsets are specialized devices designed to meet the needs of military personnel engaged in active combat operations. For example, in December 2022, the European Defense Agency reported a record expenditure of $53.4 billion (€52 billion) on the purchase of defense equipment, marking a 16% increase compared to 2020. Furthermore, total European defense spending reached a new high of $228.6 billion (€214 billion), showing a 6% increase from 2020 and continuing a seven-year expansion trend. Therefore, the rise in military expenditure propels the tactical headset market.
The growth of the tactical headset market is also expected to be driven by the increase in disposable income. Disposable income refers to the amount of money available for spending and saving after taxes have been deducted. Higher levels of disposable income across a broader consumer base enable companies to explore competitive pricing strategies, making tactical headsets more accessible to a larger audience and expanding market penetration beyond niche segments. For instance, in 2023, according to Trading Economics, disposable income in Japan increased from 412.82 JPY thousand ($3,014.64) in March 2022 to 463.91 JPY thousand ($3,387.76) in February 2023. Therefore, the rise in disposable income contributes to the growth of the tactical headset market.
Product innovations stand out as a prominent trend gaining traction in the tactical headset market, with major players directing their efforts toward the development of cutting-edge products to maintain their market positions. For example, in May 2022, Racal Acoustics, a UK-based specialist in military communication and hearing protection systems, collaborated with INVISIO, a Denmark-based company specializing in advanced communication systems, to introduce the RA5100 tactical communication headset. This innovative headset provides protection against both continuous and impulse noise exposure in extreme conditions, whether the user is on foot or in a vehicle. Equipped with advanced digital software, the RA5100 optimizes hearing protection based on operational requirements, ensuring outstanding voice identification, speech clarity, and adaptability to changing noise profiles in a vehicle.
Leading market players are also investing in innovative technologies such as Active Noise Cancellation to fortify their positions. In May 2022, SRS Tactical, a Canada-based company, unveiled its new Smart Hearing Protectors and Group Communication Headsets using Cardo Technology, known as the Control-Com AMi headset. This headset combines active and passive noise suppression with Cardo's mesh intercom technology, Dynamic Mesh Communication (DMC™), recognized with multiple awards for exceptional performance, safety, and reliability. Specifically designed for professional, safety, and industrial markets, the AMi Headset facilitates hands-free communication for two to fifteen team members, boasting an ergonomic design, top-notch hearing protection, and standalone operation without the need for base stations or cellular service.
In February 2021, INVISIO, a Sweden-based company specializing in advanced communication and hearing protection systems, successfully acquired Racal Acoustics for an undisclosed amount.
