Tactical Data Link Market Driver

• Security challenges and rising geopolitical tension - As the confrontations along the Sino-India border grew more serious, tensions between India and China grew as well. In addition, despite the COVID-19 epidemic, the India-China confrontation may be the main geopolitical concern in Asia.
• To improve safety and reduce aircraft delays, North American and European nations place a high priority on modernising and redesigning their airspace. Airspace modernization, which entails the installation of new technologies and components to communicate effectively with air traffic managers, perform multidimensional aircraft tracking, and improve navigation by producing an image of the forward external scene topography, has a number of advantages including better routing decisions, improved pilot communications, and increased efficiency. When effectively implemented, these airspace modernisation schemes provide to fuel savings, improved air quality, and a decrease in carbon emissions.

Tactical Data Link Market Restraint 

• In the defence industry, secure data links are crucial because they can prevent communications from being misunderstood. As a result, the criteria for creating and testing these data link solutions are defined by the defence industry. All NATO members and other nations can adhere to the criteria set forth by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). However, the market's expansion is hampered by these onerous standards and guidelines. Moreover, before it can be purchased by the armed forces, defensive equipment must meet a variety of military criteria. Defense items should comply with the size, weight, and power (SWaP) specifications needed by military aircraft in addition to meeting military standards.
