Research from: Visiongain
Sector: Defence


Over the next thirty years the ability of the US Navy to project power over littoral regions anywhere in the world is set to increase dramatically. As the US navy moves towards realising its sea basing concept - where all assets required for a given operation can be deployed from a secure sea based platform - there will be a corresponding increase in the Navy's ability to strike targets deep inland. Budgets have been set. Contracts are being issued. You need to ensure you are a successful part of this market.

Sea strike weapons are the next generation of naval precision strike and fire support weapons. The defining characteristic of sea strike weapons is that they posses the ability or are especially designed to strike land based targets from the sea. This report delivers to you, in one easy-to-read format all you need to know about who is involved in Sea Strike now and for the future.

The benefits of reading this report:
Visiongain projects that the global market for sea strike weapons will be worth $386 billion until 2032. This report gives you an analysis of new, near term and long term sea strike weapons systems and their markets:

. The ships which will deploy Sea Strike weapons - the DD(X) destroyer, CVNX carrier (CVN 21) & littoral combat ships.
. Aircraft such as the F/A 18 Hornet and Joint Strike Fighter
. Air-to-ground and surface-to-surface missiles and munitions
. Gun Systems
. Future Weapons e.g. UCAVs, Electromagnetic Rail Guns and Directed Energy Weapons.
. Rest of the world sea strike weapons

Provided for each type of weapons system:
. Use/function of weapon system
. Technical description of system
. Existing or pending contracts with up to date information
. Likely size of global market

Also included in the report:
. Indepth analysis of new naval doctrines - sea power 21, sea shield, sea base & operational manoeuvre from the sea.
. The geopolitical circumstances behind sea strike weapons
. ForceNet and how ICT is transforming the naval sensor - commander - strike process.
. An appraisal of the total market for sea strike weapons globally

By reading this report you will develop a clear understanding of the nature of sea strike weapons over the next 30 years; why those weapons are needed; and how much each type of weapon system is worth to the global market.
