According to the latest research, the global Military Electro Optical Infrared market size was valued at USD 13055.72 million in 2022 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 4.22% during the forecast period, reaching USD 16733.68 million by 2028.
The unique capabilities of electro-optical imagery, infrared Imaging System, night vision systems and laser and range finding tools has meant that EO/IR systems are now vital components to both lead and support a diverse range of military operations.
The growth of the military electro optical infrared market is largely driven by downstream developments. Long product life cycle is a major constraint on the development of military EO / IR systems. EO / IR systems have a life cycle of 15-20 years, before they are upgraded. Therefore, the market's technology is very easy to stand still for a long time. The military EO / IR system market is also heavily reliant on new aircraft routes, as well as new armored vehicles, vessels and submarines. With the fast growing market of military aircraft market, such as F35 series, will promote the consumption of EO / IR systems around the world for the next few years.
