This Frost & Sullivan research service titled Asia Pacific Air ISR Sensors (EO/IR) Markets provides current and future industry dynamics, revenue forecasts, and market penetration strategies. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the following markets: airborne early warning, maritime patrol, and combat aircraft.

Air ISR Sensors Markets Fly High with the Advent of High Definition Digital Imaging

In line with Asia Pacific’s rapid economic development, which is the fastest in the world, there has been substantial rise in the armed forces’ spending on modernization and upgrade of ageing military aircraft and capabilities. Airborne early warning and maritime patrol aircraft will be some of the main beneficiaries of this modernization drive and consequently, airborne sensors that aid intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) will also get a leg up. These air ISR sensors {electro-optics/infrared (EO/IR)} map accurate images from high altitudes, providing commanding officers with the data to make well-informed decisions on the battlefield. Airborne EO/IR sensors can even capture high-resolution images of small ships and the personnel aboard these ships in the vast seas surrounding Asia Pacific countries. They will go a long way in helping countries combat rising security threats such as hijacking, piracy, illegal trafficking, and smuggling.

The efficiency of EO/IR sensors has picked up with improvements in technology - especially in high definition imaging and advanced targeting and navigation systems. "High definition imaging and advanced accurate navigation and targeting pods - the next generation of EO/IR sensors - will eventually replace the existing ones," says the analyst of this research. "However, these sensor technologies or new aircraft are not affordable to smaller nations, as they have limited defense budgets." The high costs of R&D have escalated the costs of EO/IR sensors, compelling market participants to cultivate healthy relationships with governments to secure important contracts. First-hand knowledge of different defense procurement programs will also help companies pit their capabilities against their competitors.

Market participants can achieve further penetration through mergers, local joint ventures, and acquisitions by global defense contractors. These globalization efforts will enable defense companies easily overcome entry barriers and develop advanced capabilities faster. "Many companies have reinvented themselves as they compete on some programs and simultaneously collaborate and partner on others," notes the analyst. "Although partnering can be difficult, it is important to make it work to spread risks and costs, and combine technologies and capabilities.
