      NEW YORK, Dec. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The body armor market is dominated by APAC. The region is expected to account for 50% of the market's growth during the forecast period. India and China are the key countries for the body armor market in APAC. However, the market growth rate in this region will be slower than the growth of the market in Europe, MEA, and South America. Geopolitical scenarios in the region have led to unprecedented skirmishes and armed conflicts, especially in the Indochina border. These factors will drive the body armor market growth in APAC during the forecast period.

      Drivers and Challenges:
      The body armor market is driven by rise in security threats. The rise in conflicts, domestic terrorism, damage from attacks, cross-border terrorism, and other hazards pose a threat to national security. This has led to the need for protective armor for troops. Vendors have innovated ballistic protection equipment by introducing lightweight and flexible body armor, ballistic armor for women, and advanced ballistic materials. In addition, manufacturers are focusing on offering breathable and fireproof fabric clothes that can protect the wearer from slash-type attacks.

      The difficulty in optimizing the weight of body armor will be a major challenge for the market during the forecast period. High-performance body armor is integrated with specialized equipment, which allows troops to engage in combat without any hindrances. The weight of body armor increases when it is combined with devices such as radio, ammunition, and optics. Body armor is also integrated with communication systems, face protection, video cameras, oxygen systems, and other advanced technologies. These devices add extra weight to the heavy armor, which affects the mobility, flexibility, and efficiency of the wearer. These factors are compelling vendors to fund R&D to optimize the manufacturing process and reduce the weight of body armor.
