This Frost & Sullivan research service titled Global soldier modernisation market assessment provides a detailed strategic forecast of key markets in addition to analysis of current and future trends. In addition to analysing soldier modernisation programmes globally, the research also covers market value and volume of these initiatives, market leaders, as well as includes an overall roadmap showing the direction soldier modernisation is heading over the next ten years. The research further investigates trends within segments under the following categories: C4ISTAR, clothing, survivability, and lethality; and it includes three different approaches: whole system, incremental, and hybrid.

Executive Summary
Soldier modernisation programmes in Europe and the United States were too ambitious and have seen programme delays and reductions.
Countries are aiming for ultra professional armed forces, and as a result, troop strength is being reduced in most countries.
Decreasing troop numbers will have an impact on the procurement volumes, and the opportunity for volume business is limited.
The recent operations in Afghanistan and Iraq have influenced the soldier modernisation plans and with the operational withdrawal, most countries are expected to focus on planned procurement programmes.
Market revenue will peak in 2015, when the market grows to be worth $x,xxx.x million, which is expected to be sustained until 2017. This is largely a result of major programmes entering the production phase.
Upcoming soldier modernisation programmes in India, South Korea, and Brazil are in their initial stages and significant spending is expected only in the second half of the forecast period.
Frost & Sullivan has identified three different modernisation approaches: Total system, incremental, and hybrid.
The total system approach is being adopted by a few European countries such as France, Germany, Spain and Italy Other nations prefer the incremental or hybrid approach.
C4ISTAR remains the most lucrative segment in terms of revenue and is worth $x,xxx.x million. It makes up to xx.x percent of the total market value.
Frost & Sullivan forecasts that the global soldier modernisation will worth $xx,xxx.x million between 2011 and 2020.
