Introduction to Artillery Ammunition
The ammunitions are the projectiles that are used in the militaries, armed forces, artillery and guns. The ammunitions are generally measured in terms of caliber, with wide range of caliber available in the market. The small diameter ammunitions are the small arms and the larger diameters are the artilleries. The artillery ammunitions are the projectiles that have been shot through a large gun type weapon along a trajectory which is unpowered.
These ammunitions have been in use since 16th century with improvements being done time to time to cater the military demands and secure the national interests. There are wide range of artillery ammunitions available from mortars to recoilless guns ammunitions depending on their application and type.
Market Size and Forecast
The global artillery ammunition market is anticipated to record a CAGR of around 5% over the forecast period i.e. 2019-2027 owing to increased demand for better military facilities against terrorism, increasing geopolitical issues and regional conflicts and warfare. The technical up gradations and constant developments have resulted in provision of high tech next generation ammunitions for defense and military purposes. The governments across different countries are heavily investing in their militaries to provide improved defense equipment and services which is expected to result in expansion of artillery ammunition market.
The market is segmented by type, application, caliber and range. The type segment is further segmented into howitzer [self-propelled, towed], mortar [self-propelled, towed], anti-air [air defense gun, counter rocket artillery and mortar (cram)] and others [naval, coastal] out of which, the howitzer segment is anticipated to have leading shares on account of high adoption of these ammunitions in military. The howitzers are capable of providing both direct and indirect fires, need low maintenance, and are highly cost effective. The ease of operating, movability, provision of smoke cover coupled with proper illumination and suppression fire are expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period. On the basis of the caliber segment, the market is further segment into small caliber, medium caliber and heavy caliber, out of which the medium segment is anticipated to have leading market shares on the account of their increasing demand for various applications, the ammunitions are available in wide spectrum so as to cater the required demand. The medium ammunitions provide high accuracy, huge lethality and extreme penetration resulting in immense threat in the battleground. The range segment is further segmented into short, medium and long, out of which the medium segment is anticipated to witness significant growth on the back of their high ballistic properties to carry out operations efficiently. The reduced maintenance, better projectiles and trajectory, improved tracer visibility and elimination of contamination of environment are expected to boost the market growth.

Recent Developments
The automation in reconnaissance, surveillance, and target acquisition has developed such systems which have integrated computer systems for technical and tactical fire control. Rockwell Collins has developed the system which is capable of providing digital fire solutions which enable the digital calls to be used for indirect fires on mortar, range systems and artilleries. The systems provide quick reactions, all the resources of fire are synergized and integration with army’s control system and computing.
Restraints
The high cost associated with the ammunitions and the limited budgets are the key restraints due to which these are unaffordable to many low economic countries, thereby projected to limit the product demand during the forecast period.
