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.

Mortars are infantry weapon platforms used by the defense forces to target hostile ground infantry troops. While mortars with a caliber size of more than 120mm need to be towed on wheels, smaller caliber mortars are generally man-portable. While the high explosive power of mortars render it highly effective against ground targets, the low firing rate and limited range of mortars render them susceptible to aerial threats and render them ineffective in long-range combat scenarios. Several countries are expending significant resources toward augmenting their current military prowess by procuring new weapon systems or modernizing their existing deployed systems with advanced ammunition rounds.

Maritime surveillance is an integrated solution that provides safety & security on borders at sea level. It is essential for creating awareness at coastal and aids in real-time monitoring at maritime. .Operations of marine activities such as irregular migration/border control, maritime security, fisheries control, anti-piracy, oil pollution, and smuggling are supported by many maritime solutions and assemblies. The report provides market dynamics and trends related to the global maritime surveillance market. In addition, it presents the estimations and forecast of the market. The study estimates the revenue generated from the sales of maritime surveillance solutions and assemblies. For the purpose of analysis, the global maritime surveillance market is segmented into application, type, component, and region. The applications covered in the report include naval, coast guard, and others (port & critical infrastructure security and vessel security). In addition, the report includes the details about the components such as radar, sensors, AIS receivers, and others (adapters, multiplexers, interfaces, convertors, software, long-range Wi-Fi boosters, routers, CCTV, SX software, control room, and frequency detector). Moreover, it provides information on surveillance & tracking, detectors, and others (screening & scanning and communication). The report covers the revenue generated from the sales of products related to maritime surveillance offered in regions such as North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
