Infrared Search And Track (IRST) System Market to grow at a CAGR of 2.1% during 2024-2028
The Infrared Search And Track (IRST) System Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.1% during 2023 and 2028. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 580 million. Infrared Search and Track (IRST) systems have emerged as a preferred solution in air defense applications due to the limitations of radar systems. Radars, which are traditionally used for surveillance, have drawbacks such as passive surveillance inability, vulnerability to jamming, and susceptibility to anti-radiation missiles. In response, IRST systems, which offer a wide field of view for autonomous target detection, classification, and prioritization using infrared sensors, have gained significant traction. Notably, Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. recently announced developments in this area. These advancements underscore the growing importance of IRST systems in modern air defense systems.
