Tactical Communications Industry shipments to grow at 3% CAGR from 2017 to 2024: Global Market Insights Inc. Tactical Communications Market Tactical Communications Market size was estimated at over USD 20 billion, with shipments of over 60 million units in 2016, and set to exceed USD 30 billion by 2024; as per a new research report by Global Market Insights, Inc. Global shipments are projected to witness more than 3% CAGR between 2017 and 2024. The need for advanced systems having high-quality audio capabilities to replace the legacy systems in the military is anticipated to drive the tactical communications market growth. Advancements in communication technology, such as bone conduction, ear canal equipment, penetration of LTE in professional mobile radios is contributing towards the growing adoption of these devices. Furthermore, wireless technology in headsets is gaining precedence as it allows users easier movement and greater flexibility.
To tackle the issues of miscommunication, vendors operating in the tactical communications market are leveraging compression technology and digital signal processing for the provision of clear filters for ambient sound and voice communication in any environment. The rising trend of product miniaturization is anticipated to transform the tactical communications market. The tactical communications market has penetrated industrial verticals such as oil and mining, logistics, and manufacturing, which generate high noise during normal operation. To protect the hearing capabilities of the workforce, organizations are mandated by the government to provide adequate hearing protection while retaining the ability to conduct effective conversation. The usage of protective earplugs and communication headsets separately can restrict the capabilities of the user. To combat this, manufacturers are integrating robust communication systems with protective, durable gear, such as 3M Peltor ballistic proof headsets, to ensure the safety of the device and the user while maintaining high quality communications. The presence of government regulations in various economies such as the U.S and Europe are major factors contributing towards the high growth of the tactical headsets market. This equipment provides protection to the hearing of the customers from loud noises such as explosions and gunshot firings while filtering certain sounds of lower frequencies such as human speech to reach the user. 1|Page
