Market Share of Command And Control Systems Industry
The market for command and control systems is fragmented, with the presence of several global and local players holding significant shares of the market. Some of the prominent players are L3Harris Technologies Inc., Lockheed Martin Corporation, THALES, RTX Corporation, and BAE Systems plc.
With growing competition in the market, key OEMs are focusing on the development of next-generation solutions for defense forces. For instance, in November 2023, Space Systems Command (SSC) awarded an eight-year USD 579 million contract to Kratos Defense and Security Solutions as part of the Command-and-Control System-Consolidated (CCS-C) Sustainment and Resiliency (C-SAR) contract to provide satellite control capabilities to US Space Force and US Space Command. As per the contract, Kratos will provide direct support to Defense Satellite Communications System (DSCS) III, Advanced Extremely High Frequency (AEHF), Milstar Satellite Communications System, and Wideband Global Satellite (WGS) satellite systems.
Similarly, in August 2023, the US Air Force researchers are taking the support and assistance of an additional 13 defense tech companies to mature, demonstrate, and proliferate technologies for military forces to respond to global threats in 15 minutes or less. US Air Force officials announced the 13 additional companies in July 2023 in the potential USD 950 million Joint All Domain Command and Control (JADC2) program. This US Air Force program aims to develop systems across all military domains in an open-architecture family of systems that integrate several platforms to enable new warfighting capabilities.
Such growing focus on innovation, research, and development, and the introduction of advanced systems from various defense organizations are driving the market growth.
