Ammunition market – Market dynamics

Major trends 

• Reduction of weight of ammunition
• Growing asymmetric warfare worldwide
• Advancement in small caliber

The weight of ammunition has decreased significantly owing to new material developments and manufacturing methods. Bullet casings are made of lightweight metals and composite materials, and the weight of propellants has been optimized. In the aviation sector, lighter aircraft lead to longer flight times and successful missions. Moreover, ammunition storage and transportation require fewer resources, which allows for more flexible and quick military operations. Such factors are expected to fuel market growth during the forecast period.

Key challenges

• Rise in ammunition smuggling
• Proliferation of illicit ammunition manufacturers
• International measures to control ammunition use

The rise in ammunition smuggling is fueled by the high demand for firearms and related goods on the black market. Smugglers are employing strategies such as concealing ammunition in vehicles, shipping containers, and items such as clothing and toys. This makes it difficult for authorities to find smuggled ammunition. Moreover, the introduction of illegal firearms can lead to other criminal activities. These factors are expected to impede market growth during the forecast period.
