The active protection system market is projected to grow from USD 2.84 billion in 2016 to USD 4.15 billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 6.50% from 2016 to 2022. The growing demand for safety from highly maneuverable weapon systems is expected to be the key driver for the growth of the active protection system market during the forecast period.

Based on platform, the land segment dominated the active protection system market in 2016. Active protection systems mounted on a land-based platform are equipped with both, hard kill as well soft kill capabilities. These systems are tough and rugged, and provide high detection probability for small and large targets in all weather conditions.

Based on kill system type, the hard kill system segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This high growth can be attributed to the increased demand for hard kill systems that can detect as well as neutralize various types of incoming threat. These systems provide a 360-degree protection against modern missiles/projectiles. For instance, in 2016, the U.K.‘s Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) awarded a contract worth USD 8.07 million to QinetiQ (U.K.) for the assessment of active protection systems (APS) for armored vehicles.

Europe is expected to be one of the largest markets for active protection system in the future. Active protection systems are expected to drive military operations, as they protect personnel from direct fire, thus leading to a decline in casualties. The importance of troop safety and enhancing the kill power of a warfare platform have driven major manufacturers and service providers in the region to develop techno-efficient combat systems and unmanned systems with active protection system.
