The launcher and the warhead are the two major components of shoulder-fired weapons. External guidance systems can be added to the launchers to improve accuracy and range. Most new launchers are designed to be interoperable, allowing multiple types of missiles to be fired from them. Shoulder-Fired Missiles can be guided or unguided to hit ground or air targets and have unique applications such as armour piercing. The majority of shoulder-fired weapons are utilised by light infantry units to attack ground-based targets such as bunkers, light to medium armoured vehicles, and enemy outposts. They are also known as MANPATS or MANPADS. Precision strikes are used to target low-flying aircraft with other types.

IMPACT OF COVID-19

The global market for shoulder-fired guns has been badly disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The COVID-19 epidemic slowed economic growth in nearly all major countries, altering consumer purchasing patterns.

National and international travel have been hampered as a result of the lockdown applied in many nations, which has greatly disrupted the supply chain of numerous sectors around the world, consequently increasing the supply-demand gap.

Furthermore, small vendors and OEMs cannot supply spare parts and other raw materials to defence and other businesses that rely on them.

As a result, insufficient raw material supply is predicted to slow the production rate of shoulder fired weapons, thus impacting the market growth of shoulder fired weapons.

However, the situation is expected to improve as governments around the world begin to reduce regulations for resuming corporate operations.

Based on product, the global Shoulder-Fired Weapons Market is divided into three categories: short range, medium range, and long range. Short Range Shoulder-Fired Weapons are typically utilised in close-combat operations and have a maximum range of less than 1000 metres. Medium-range weapons have a maximum range of 3000 metres and are mostly employed to engage tanks or low-flying aircraft. Because of their versatility, medium range weapons are the most sought-after.

It may be paired with numerous warheads and has a range of 1000-3000 metres, making it excellent for attacking ground assets. Because of more advanced guidance systems, Extended Range weapons have higher muzzle velocity and greater accuracy, engaging targets beyond 3000 metres, and are the most sophisticated and capable systems in the Shoulder-Fired Weapons sector.

The ammunition sector dominated the shoulder fired weapons market in the projected period and is likely to continue its dominance through 2022. Developing countries, including China and India, are increasing their investments in man-portable weapon systems. Shoulder-fired weapons improve military land warfare capabilities at a fraction of the expense of other weapon systems. These countries are increasing their investments in innovative technology and focusing on the production of a diverse variety of offensive fighting vehicles. 

The market for shoulder-fired weapons has been studied and divided into guided and unguided technologies. The guided category dominates the shoulder fired weapons industry in terms of technology. This category is expected to increase at the fastest CAGR throughout the forecast period, owing to upgrades and modernization initiatives, the acquisition of new fire-and-forget missiles, and the usage of advanced guidance systems.

An accurate research report requires proper strategizing as well as implementation. There are multiple factors involved in the completion of good and accurate research report and selecting the best methodology to compete the research is the toughest part. Since the research reports we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach at a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brain storming session to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

 

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research is as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through the readily available information. In this process we use various paid and unpaid databases which our team has access to and gather data through the same. This includes examining of listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling etc. Apart from this our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various university as well as individual libraries.

Secondary Research

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to the accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply side of the industry to make sure we land at an accurate judgement and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses and observation of on filed participants. The below mentioned chart should give a better understanding of the part 1 of the primary interview.

Primary Research

Part 2: In this part of primary research the data collected via secondary research and the part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews from individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation

Once all the information is collected via primary and secondary sources, we run that information for data validation. At our intelligence centre our research heads track a lot of information related to the market which includes the quarterly reports, the daily stock prices, and other relevant information. Our data bank server gets updated every fortnight and that is how the information which we collected using our primary and secondary information is revalidated in real time.

Data Bank Validation

Step 4: QA/QC Process

After all the data collection and validation our team does a final level of quality check and quality assurance to get rid of any unwanted or undesired mistakes. This might include but not limited to getting rid of the any typos, duplication of numbers or missing of any important information. The people involved in this process include technical content writers, research heads and graphics people. Once this process is completed the title gets uploader on our platform for our clients to read it.

Step 5: Final QC/QA Process:

This is the last process and comes when the client has ordered the study. In this process a final QA/QC is done before the study is emailed to the client. Since we believe in giving our clients a good experience of our research studies, therefore, to make sure that we do not lack at our end in any way humanly possible we do a final round of quality check and then dispatch the study to the client.
