LONDON – Today’s warfare has become increasingly unsymmetrical in nature, and comprises guerrilla conflicts, counterinsurgency, and anti-terror operations, among others. Similar scenarios are observed in the law enforcement field wherein criminals are currently more equipped to mortally injure responding officers, thus calling for investments in ballistic protection equipment. The main factors determining suppliers’ market penetration include performance enhancements in the areas such as wearability.

Fast-paced development in materials utilised for ballistic protection have resulted in subtle reductions of costs for certain variants, which makes it possible for militaries of developing countries and also paramilitary units and police forces to initiate organisation-wide deployment.

Strong government rules and regulations that force the use of protective clothing have boosted demand. In a like manner, the factor that is also expected to impact the sales of ballistic protection equipment is the growing trend of supplying body armour comprising headgear to first responders such as firefighters and paramedics.

In the mature markets of the USA and Europe, national security departments are including military surplus vehicles in their squads with a view to tackling the surging terrorism threat and the availability of advanced weapons in retail stores, which is resulting in high-risk situations dealing with armed criminals.
