Increasing demand for high-tech & smart targeting systems is expected to drive the growth of targeting pods market during the forecast period. This has resulted in some of the key developments by companies operating in the market to consolidate their market positions and look for further niche opportunities.

Targeting pods helps to identify, laser-designate, and track tiny tactical targets at long distances or ranges automatically along with providing superior air-to-air and air-to-ground capabilities. In addition, the targeting pods also support the use of GPS and laser-guided weapons against moving targets and were able to be used across multinational and typhoon aircraft. The targeting pods show a target-to-aircrew infrared image as it includes a high-resolution forward-looking infrared (FLIR) sensor with a broad field of search capability. Governments around the globe are investing and upgrading their capacities through contracting, allowing warfare fighters to react to needs such as reliability rates and availability of sniper.

The globally targeting pods market has been segmented into type, component, fit, platform. Based on Type, this market is split into  FLIR & Laser designator Pods, Laser designator pods, FLIR pods, Laser spot tracker. The FLIR & Laser designator pods segment is anticipated high demand in this market because of the increasing use of forward-looking infrared sensors, along with laser designators for targeting and surveillance. The FLIR sensor segment is anticipated to boom in this market based on the component segment owing to enhanced spending on precise aircraft attack capabilities under low light conditions.  By fit segment, OEM has the largest demand in targeting pods market due to increased spending on airborne targeting and laser designation systems.

By platform, the combat aircraft segment is anticipated to meet the largest demand in the targeting pods market owing to enhanced spending on upgrading existing aircraft and new aircraft procurement programs, especially capabilities for ground attack accuracy.
