Global armoured vehicles market to reach £8.10bn in 2013

The latest defence report from Visiongain - Global Armoured Vehicles Market 2013-2023 - finds stable demand for military armoured vehicles and forecasts that global spending on armoured vehicles will amount to £8.10bn ($12.61bn) in 2013.

Armoured vehicles provide ground forces mobility, protection and firepower and they need to confront threats both in conventional warfare and in many facets of irregular warfare. Armoured vehicle programmes do face pressure from defence spending cuts in several countries but the importance of this sector along with wide-ranging projects to replace ageing vehicle fleets do promise demand for companies involved in, or looking to be involved, in this sector.
