Tactical Networks is the largest market segment of the total GCC C3 market at
approximately $1.7b within the forecast period, 19% of the total market value,
with the Saudi Arabia Border Guard Communications Network, UAE Tactical Communications
Upgrade and UAE Military Telecom Infrastructure accounting for the majority of the sales
value. HLS C2 and Air and Missile Defence are the next largest functional segments.
We expect the GCC C3 market to increase in the near future because of increased funding
for HLS C2, Battle Management C2 and Satellite Communication equipment. HLS C2 expansion
is due to increased regional instability. Battle Management C2 growth is driven by the region's
high education levels that allow GCC militaries to successful adopt advanced C3 technology.
Satellite Communications growth is driven by the desire to obtain communications independence
from foreign suppliers and domestic demand for bandwidth from digitization programs.
In the long term, Air and Missile Defence C2 will grow as regional militaries seek to acquire
second generation missile defence capabilities to counter increasing regional strategic missile threats.
Top Opportunities for GCC C3 Market
The largest opportunities are Saudi Arabia Border Guard Communications Network,
