Increasing territorial disputes and rising concerns for countermeasures against terrorist activities is expected to drive the market growth
Rising territorial disputes and terrorist attacks in countries such as Russia and Ukraine; China and Japan for uninhabited islands in the East China Sea; India and Pakistan for Jammu & Kashmir; Israel and Palestine for the Gaza Strip, Golan Heights, and West Bank is a major factor for increasing demand for carriage with multi-purpose rack racks. Several other regional disputes, which inadvertently affects the security of the nation, is expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, according to the Our World in Data Organization’s analysis, 11,996 number of terrorist related incident occurred in 2013, and it increased to 16,860 in 2014, globally. Additionally, according to the U.S. Department of State, India faced a total number of 764 terrorist attacks in 2014, and it increased to 791 in 2015. Therefore, rising territorial disputes increases weapons use in order to heighten security of the nation from terrorist attacks, which is expected to boost growth of the market.
Moreover, increasing government regulation to monitor international borders and safeguard people against terrorist activities is another factor driving growth of weapons carriage and release system market. For instance, the USA Patriot Act is an antiterrorism law enacted by the U.S. Congress in October 2001, to improve the ability of U.S. law enforcement to detect and deter terrorism. Therefore, increasing government initiative towards protecting the nation from terrorist attack will positively encourage the market players to purchase weapons carriage and release systems for carrying large bombs and missiles during fight. This will in turn help in propelling growth of the market.
