Counter-IED (Improvised Explosive Device) systems are specialized equipment or devices, often installed on vehicles, intended to prevent, detect, and mitigate the risks posed by IEDs. These procedures are crucial for minimizing the threats posed by these unpredictable explosive devices.
The primary capabilities of counter-IED systems encompass detection and countermeasures. Detection involves the process of identifying the presence or absence of potential threats. These capabilities are deployed through various means, including vehicle-mounted, ship-mounted, and aircraft-mounted systems, along with handheld devices. They serve multiple applications in military and homeland security, aiming to identify and neutralize potential risks from IEDs.
The counter-IED market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides counter-IED market statistics, including counter-IED industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a counter-IED market share, detailed counter-IED market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the counter-IED industry. This counter-IED market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The counter-IED market size has grown marginally in recent years. It will grow from $1.42 billion in 2023 to $1.45 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 1.7%. The growth in the historic period can be traced back to various factors such as heightened global terrorism threats, military engagements in conflict zones, substantial government investments and initiatives, the advancing sophistication of IEDs, and increased international cooperation in addressing these threats.
The counter-IED market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.57 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is likely due to ongoing military modernization initiatives, addressing challenges in urban warfare scenarios, intensifying efforts in safeguarding critical infrastructure, and increased reliance on unmanned systems. Significant trends expected during this period encompass improved capabilities in detecting chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive threats, global collaborative efforts in counter-terrorism strategies, focus on disrupting supply chains related to IEDs, advancements in lightweight and portable solutions, leveraging machine learning for threat analysis, and the integration of multi-sensor fusion technologies.
The growth of the counter-IED market is anticipated to be propelled by the increase in military spending. Military spending, encompassing current and capital investments in armed forces, experienced a 0.7% real-term increase in 2021, reaching $2,113 billion globally, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute's report in April 2022. This surge in military spending signifies a growing investment in military measures and resources, driving the demand for counter-IED equipment as part of broader counterterrorism, counterinsurgency, or law enforcement efforts.
The counter-IED market is expected to witness growth due to the rising threats of terrorism. Terrorism threats, emanating from individuals, groups, or organizations, prompt the deployment of counter-IED measures by military, law enforcement, and security agencies. The U.S. Government Accountability Office reported in March 2023 that the count of individuals charged as federal defendants in cases related to domestic terrorism increased to around 449 in 2021, signifying a significant rise from the 175 cases recorded in 2020. This surge in terrorism threats underscores the importance of counter-IED efforts to prevent and respond to potential attacks involving improvised explosive devices.
The counter-IED market is anticipated to experience growth driven by the increasing utilization of unmanned systems. Unmanned systems, which operate without human onboard, contribute significantly to countering Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) by providing enhanced capabilities in detection, reconnaissance, and neutralization. The Institute for Economics & Peace reported a notable 40.8% increase in drone attacks in 2022, coupled with a 24% rise in the diversity of groups employing drones, emphasizing the growing role of unmanned systems in addressing the threat of IEDs.
Major players in the counter-IED market are directing their efforts toward the development of innovative solutions, exemplified by offerings such as C-Guard Microsystems. The introduction of manpack counter-IED devices, portable or wearable systems designed for countering IEDs, is a notable trend in this market. In November 2023, Netline Communications Technologies Ltd, an Israel-based electronic countermeasures manufacturing company, announced the launch of 'C-Guard Modular Manpack.' This Electronic Warfare (EW) system is tailored to address challenges posed by IEDs and adversarial drones, featuring comprehensive jamming capabilities in a compact and portable design suitable for military and law enforcement applications.
Major companies are forging partnerships to develop new products and enhance their market positions. Strategic partnerships involve the collaboration of companies to leverage each other's strengths and resources, fostering mutual benefits and success. A notable example occurred in February 2022 when DroneShield, an Australia-based Counterdrone Defense solutions provider, partnered with Allen-Vanguard, a Canada-based provider of Counter Improvised Explosive Devices (C-IED) solutions. This collaboration aimed to deliver a complete offering of Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS) and C-IED solutions, utilizing integrated technical solutions and commercial distribution strategies. The partnership enhances the ability of both companies to present a more comprehensive package to their current customers and explore collaborative opportunities in marketing channels.
