New Market Research on the World Market for Military Infrared Imaging Detectors and Systems (Vol. IRW-M) by Maxtech International, Inc.

SARASOTA, Fla., Jan. 22, 2018 — (PRNewswire) —  Maxtech International, Inc. is releasing the 2018 edition of its market research report on military infrared detectors and systems markets (Vol. IRW-M).

Military infrared imaging systems are at a turning point. Upgrades to legacy systems have been delayed due to budgetary pressures. Now, advanced new infrared detector technologies are becoming available that could transform the landscape and drive the military infrared imaging market to $11 billion by 2022.

Some of the important trends that will start to shape advanced military infrared systems include:

Geographically, the U.S. continues to be the dominant supplier of military infrared systems. However, Europe, Israel and China also have a sizable presence. Countries in the Middle East, Asia and elsewhere are increasing their purchases of these systems.

What's new in this report?

(1)   Updates on the five year market forecasts for the most dynamic high performance technologies in emerging military systems:

(2)   An update on spending Projections for military infrared systems for the top 25 countries worldwide:

(3)   Changes in U.S. Infrared Market Strategies
(4)   Market shares for suppliers of gimbaled airborne infrared systems
(5)   Upcoming upgrades to military infrared systems expected using T2SL/nBn technology
