Vector Strategy is pleased to announce the publication of their newest report: Material Requirements and Supply Chain Analysis of Armor Procurement for Military Ground Vehicles.
This report is available for immediate purchase from Vector Strategy and forecasts requirements for significant material components of armor in weight and US$ market value. The report also provides an analysis of the armor supply chain and major supply chain participants.
"The material market related to armor procurement for military ground vehicles is a multi-billion dollar industry. To our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive material forecast and supply chain analysis ever offered to business executives in the armor industry," says Marcia Price, president of Vector Strategy. "We have developed a forecast model that allows us to project material requirements by armor kit or armor design and adjust those armor designs annually through 2013 to reflect technology trends and armor design changes. Our forecast provides executives with the intelligence they need to build business plans and make investment decisions. "
The forecast addresses the following questions and more:
- How much steel plate and aluminum plate will be required in FY08 to fulfill armor procurement for military ground vehicles?
- What vehicle platforms and armor programs are driving FY08 material requirements and how does that change through 2013?
- How is demand for MRAP’s and EFP protection affecting material requirements for armor for military ground vehicles?
- What are the sales and market share of leading armor manufacturers?
- Who are the major suppliers of material for armor for military ground vehicles?
- Where are the likely material bottlenecks and backlogs / shortages in the armor supply chain?
- What percentage of composites used in armor applications are reinforced with high performance glass fibers, aramid fibers, and HMPE fibers?
- How does the use of ceramics in armor for military ground vehicle change from 2006 to 2013 and what is Vector’s prediction of aluminum oxide versus silicon carbide use in armor for military ground vehicles?
