Increasing Demand for Lithium-Ion Batteries among End-Users, Rising Adoption of Ground Vehicles and UAVs, and Advancements in Technology Used by the Defense Sector are Some of the Major Factors Driving the Market Growth  

One of the major factors driving the growth of the global military battery market is the increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries among the end-users. Lithium-based batteries have an essentially better power density and are a lot lighter than alkaline and carbon-zinc batteries. In military applications, rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are utilized. This battery is involved by the military for various purposes, including thermal imagers, thermal cameras, and radios. During the release, the battery moves lithium particles from the negative electrode to the positive electrode, and during charging, the battery does the inverse. High power density military batteries are supplanting standard batteries in an assortment of military applications, including air safeguard and electronic fighting equipment. For instance; as per the news published, on March 21st, 2022; The U.S. government has announced the launch of a national workforce development policy for lithium battery production.

In addition, the rising adoption of ground vehicles and UAVs is also boosting the growth of the military battery market. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and man-portable devices have areas of strength for a for high-capacity, long-term batteries that are lightweight, bringing about a decrease in overall system size. The enormous D-sized lithium essential battery packs, which are utilized by military UAVs to ensure their safe arriving during power disappointments, are being supplanted by small-sized and powerful lithium AA batteries. These batteries lessen the general size of UAVs as well as increment their endurance of the UAVs. For example; according to U.S. Department of Defense Consumer, in 2021, UAV shipments are projected to reach 29 million and enterprise UAV shipments which are projected to reach 805,000. 

Moreover, the advancement in technology used by the defense sector is another factor boosting the military battery market. Advances in technology used by the defense sector have led to an increase in the use of mountable soldier systems that can carry soldiers on the battlefield.
