Market Share of Weapons Carriage And Release Systems Industry
The weapons carriage and release systems are consolidated due to the presence of a few major players. The prominent players in the carriage of the weapons and release systems market are Cobham Limited, RTX Corporation, L3Harris Technologies, Inc., Moog Inc., and The Marvin Group. Vendors are implementing marginal design changes to their offerings to accommodate newer variants of integrated weapons payload. Long-term collaborations are preferred in the market; hence, the threat of entry of a new market player is minimal. For instance, in April 2021, Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc., in partnership with Kratos Unmanned Systems Division and Area-I, successfully tested the XQ-58A Valkyrie’s sixth test/demonstration flight and the first release from its internal weapons bay. The test demonstrated the ability to launch a small, unmanned UAS system from the internal weapons bay. Kratos, Area-I, and AFRL developed software and designed and fabricated the SUAS carriage to enable the successful release of the unmanned UAS system.
