“The increasing demand for lighter gear that enhances mobility and flexibility and provides effective protection, has encouraged vendors to use advanced raw materials for the production of ACHs. The manufacturers are using usage of new, strong, and lightweight materials like aramid fibers (Kevlar/Twaron), titanium, aluminum, ceramic, and polymer to reduce weight and increase the strength of the armor system. The usage of ceramic armor vehicles helps to protect soldiers and troops against mines, direct fire, artillery, and mortar shrapnel,” says Arushi Thakur, an industry expert at Technavio for research on defense.

The new industry research report from Technavio analyzes some of the key drivers and trends responsible for the growth of this market and its sub-segments.
Increase in warfare
The increase in the number of armed conflicts across the globe will lead to the demand for advanced combat helmet. Some of the ongoing conflicts are ISIS conflicts, Indo-Pakistani conflict over Kashmir, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine over Crimea, the Syrian civil war, the Lebanon conflict, and the conflicts between the US and North Korea. Such incidents worldwide have increased the demand for ballistic protection products such as bulletproof vests, ballistic headgear, ballistic eyewear, ballistic armored car, ballistic missiles, and ballistic shields.
Mounting security threats
The homeland security or the law enforcement agencies of a country safeguard the internal and external security from internal or domestic terrorism and also prevent terrorist attacks and organized crimes as these attacks hinder growth and economic development of a region. The ACH plays a vital role in protecting armed personnel against attacks and injuries during explosive attacks and threats. The defense agencies across the globe are focusing on improving personal protection equipment (PPE) and body armor for soldiers.
Focus on soldier protection
The defense organizations in several countries are concentrating on providing protective gears to their soldiers to ensure a high level of safety against any form of attacks including ballistic. The manufacturers are investing in the development of ballistic protection gear.
