In asymmetric warfare, the opposing sides have unequal military resources. Generally, in these types of warfare, the weaker opponent uses unconventional methods and tactics, to exploit the vulnerabilities of the enemy. The use of remote weapon stations is one such tactic, where the operator firing the weapon is in a safe area, away from the weapon. Remote weapons allocate risk asymmetrically, allowing those who use these weapons to minimize their exposure to risk, while their opponents can be easily attacked. The growth in insurgent groups, with better awareness of the local battlefields, has necessitated the demand for methods and techniques for mitigating these threats, especially in counterinsurgency operations. Non-state actors have started employing the techniques and tactics of asymmetric warfare, and conventional forces require new capabilities to become successful in modern combat situations and post-conflict scenarios. In this regard, the use of remote weapon systems is becoming widespread in several anti-terrorist and counter- insurgency operations.

The roles of independent fighting groups are continuously evolving in the modern battlefields. Data from recent combat operations reflect the high frequency of engagements with hostile weapon emplacements in various man-made and natural shelters that cannot be dominated solely using small arms or inferior firepower. The global armed forces are expected to face unprecedented threats on battlefields, where rapidly emerging technologies have substantially altered the balance of power.  The medium caliber ammunition market is expected to grow primarily due to the procurement and upgrade activities undertaken by armed forces to counter the emerging threats. Several contracts for military aircraft, helicopters, infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs) and armored personnel carriers (APCs) mounted with medium caliber turret guns are currently underway and many new contracts are anticipated to be dispersed during the forecast period, creating a parallel demand for medium caliber ammunition.
