Defence Electronics and Avionics Market

Modern military platforms are defined by their electronics, and the gap between a well-equipped platform and a poorly equipped one has never been wider. The market for defence electronics, encompassing Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radars, Electronic Warfare (EW) jammers, secure communications including Link 16 and MADL, and mission computers, is growing faster than the platforms themselves. As threats become more sophisticated with hypersonic glide vehicles and stealth drones entering the picture, demand for advanced Radio Frequency (RF) and digital signal processing components is accelerating sharply, stressing a supply chain that is heavily reliant on advanced semiconductor packaging and Gallium Nitride (GaN) fabrication capacity.
