Demand for Military 5G to Quadruple over Next Five Years
04.18.2022 // Military & Aerospace Electronics
The military 5G market is forecast to grow from $665 million in 2022 to $2.5 billion by 2027, for a combined annual growth rate of 30.2 percent, according to Military & Aerospace Electronics.
Quoting a new report from research firm MarketsandMarkets, this outlook highlights a growing opportunity for new 5G and connected device designs in the military and aerospace industry:
By communications infrastructure, the small cell segment is expected to dominate 5G in the defense market during the forecast period. Small cell segment growth comes from the large-scale deployment of small cells by 5G network operators. With the further introduction of the 5G network, the data connectivity speed is expected to increase significantly. As small cells can help facilitate 5G deployment, they are expected to play a pivotal role in the market for 5G communication infrastructure.
By platform, aircraft will lead 5G in the defense market during the forecast period. Airborne applications like uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) and mission-critical communications should be able to perform with increased efficiency.
