Technological advancement in active protection systems with advanced radio frequency, infrared, and electric-optics technologies are deployed on vehicles, naval ships, and aircraft to enhance situational awareness to detect the target and recognize weather conditions. Multiple projectiles triggered from a sufficient distance can be tracked, detected, and obstructed with the help of active protection solutions to ensure vehicle safety, which is expected to positively impact the active protection system market growth.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the growth of the active protection systems market. Economic slowdown and negligible operations in the defense and aerospace industry led to disruption in the supply chain, ultimately leading to a decline in the demand for these protection systems across the globe. Moreover, the lack of funds delayed the active protection solution deliveries, creating a loss in revenue and ultimately hampering the industry.
With the replacement of conventional equipment with an advanced active protection system in various armored vehicles, light-protected vehicles and light tanks require high maintenance costs, halting the industry growth. In addition, military aircraft have active defenses such as radar systems to track and identify threats which require a huge investment from R&D that can restrain the growth of the active protection system market.

Industry Dynamics
Growth Drivers
The global active protection system is likely to be driven by the demand in Asia Pacific owing to the increasing government investment in military and defense and rising demand for innovative combat systems to improve military across emerging economies such as India, South Korea, and China. In addition, rising conflicts among borders have increased the demand for advanced weapons and a new main battle tank with cutting-edge technology, which is expected to accelerate market growth.
Moreover, the demand for the TROPHY ADS defense system is rising as it improves platform resilience and develops a framework to detect threats from maneuver forces. In addition, it neutralizes a variety of antiarmor threats related to the platform and reduces collateral damage. Furthermore, the ability to report shooter locations and make a kill at a long distance is increasing its demand in U.S. armed forces, which is expected to fuel the active protection system market growth.

Ground segment is expected to grow at a highest CAGR
The ground platform segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR over the forecast period owing to its huge land combat platform, which includes various sensors, decoys, radars, and many more to detect metallic and non-metallic landmines to improve operational effectiveness.
Moreover, the development and usage of remotely controlled improvised explosive devices (RCIED) by many attackers and terrorist groups has created a demand for counter-Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) that includes Radio Frequency (RF) inhibition and jamming equipment in the field of military and paramilitary to provide security to the platform is expected to drive the segment growth.
Soft kill is expected to witness fastest growth
The demand for soft kill systems is expected to see a significant surge over the forecast period owing to their cost-effectiveness and greater relevance to military capabilities such as intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance. In addition, this protection system doesn't directly attack the incoming attack but uses laser, infrared, and radar jammers to divert the focus of the projectile from the combat vehicle and neutralize the attack, which has increased the adoption of this system in the U.S. armed force and ultimately propelled the market growth.
Defense segment is expected to lead the market
The defense segment is expected to dominate the market over the forecast period owing to the increasing adoption of the active protection system to protect platforms during combat situations. In addition, the rising conflicts among the borders have significantly increased the demand for this system in the military. Moreover, the growing emphasis on reducing casualties in the combat fields is driving the demand for novel weapons and technologies in the armed force, which is expected to propel the market over the forecast period.
Europe is expected to dominate and witness fastest growth over the forecast period
Europe is the largest region for active protection systems and is expected to witness faster growth over the forecast period owing to the increasing demand from European armed forces to replace old equipment with new and advanced versions. In addition, the growing government investments across Russia and U.K. in new defense system is expected to drive market growth. Moreover, an increase in developing secured network against cyber-attacks are also expected to fuel the market over the forecast period.
For instance, BAE systems launched a new version of Viper Memory Loader Verifier II that has cyber-handed aircraft capability and the ability to load and verify the software on the aircraft, which reduces the vulnerability to cyberattacks.
