Global Remote Weapon Station Market size is projected to be valued $XX Billion by 2025; with a CAGR of XX% from 2017 to 2025. A remote weapon station, also known as remote weapon system (RWS), is a remotely operated weaponized system equipped with fire-control system for light and medium caliber weapons which can be installed on ground, sea and air-based combat platforms. Such system is used on the modern military vehicles, as it allows a soldier to remain in the relative protection of the vehicle. Remote Weapon Station provides high-tech systems for enhanced situational awareness and protection of personnel and property in high-risk areas.
Increasing acceptance of UAVs in civil & defense applications, and increased demand for high precision in weapons in military aircraft are boosting the growth of the global Remote Weapon Station market. Moreover, rise in awareness towards border security and increasing procurement of military equipment, are also expected to fuel the growth of the market. However, safety and regulations issues involved in the use of remotely operated military equipment may hinder the growth of the market. Furthermore, ongoing research & development and opportunities among arms & defense industries from emerging economies would provide growth in the upcoming years.
