Chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosives (CBRNE) defense systems are generally used to create mass disruption to control and stabilize warfare situations. The government and companies are looking forward to integrating advanced technology in the CBRNE systems to optimize the overall process and overcome warfare situations.


The development of small unmanned aircraft systems has enabled the transformation of disaster response in the homeland. The advanced technology provides increased situational awareness for remote air monitoring and civil authorities that enables safer decisions. The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) has equipped the National Guard’s weapons of mass destruction—civil support teams with UAVs that can detect and identify chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear (CBRN), and hazardous material (HAZMAT) materials. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the defense industry has been minimal. Countries across the globe have not reduced defense expenditures due to the continuous rising border security and military modernization programs.

CBRNE Defense Market Growth Factors


Dynamic Development in the Nature of Warfare and Utility of CBRNE Threats by Terrorist Groups to Propel the Market Growth


According to the United Nations Office of Counter-Terrorism (UNOCT), international peace and security have been under serious threat owing to the prospect of CBRNE materials’ accessibility to the terrorists & their supporters and non-state actors. This development has encouraged governments worldwide to invest and nurture R&D, and the manufacturing of systems for homeland security is anticipated to propel the market. The increasing efforts from various leading superpowers toward continuously enhancing their warfare and offense capabilities is primarily responsible for the demand for the market. Furthermore, continuous testing of new explosive technologies and nuclear tests is further driving the defense and law enforcement departments toward purchasing these explosives.


As per the UN Counter-Terrorism Centre (UNCCT), United Nations General Assembly has asked its member states in the UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy’s sixth review to restrict terrorists and non-state actors from accessing weapons and their delivery systems. It has also asked for cooperation within and between member states and regional and international organizations for capability enhancement of defense and restrictions on the proliferation of CBRNE weapons. These factors are anticipated to boost the market growth.


In November 2020, INTERPOL and UNCCT initiated a five-year joint initiative for the Global Threat Assessment Study on Non-State Actors & their materials. Such initiatives for measuring the threats and implementation of regulatory norms are expected to drive the market growth of the market.


 According to 2018 & 2019 Annual Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community reports, the international regimes such as Russia, Syria, Iran, North Korea, Pakistan, China, and the terrorist group has increased the weapons threats through capability enhancement, production, proliferation, and utilization of weapons on the world populace. This factor is anticipated to influence market growth.


Favorable Regulations and International Agreements for the Development of CBRNE Solutions to Drive the Market Growth


According to the 2017 EU CBRN Action Plan, the European Union has adopted and focused on the accessibility reduction of materials, a robust preparedness against any internal and external links with regional and international partners. It has also been proposed that medical preparedness should be a priority of action plans. This regulatory adoption has further pushed the demand for defense specialist schools in the European market. Further, this has resulted in emphasizing defense specialist courses, which is attributed to the rise in the demand for a skilled workforce in this market by region.


The U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s National Strategy for CBRNE Standards emphasizes interagency collaboration for better response and utilizes the research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) of CBRNE infrastructure. It also emphasizes the establishment of the standards required for detection equipment, interoperability of various agencies, user training, and standard operating processes for systems protection.


According to NATO’s Comprehensive and Strategic Level Policy for the proliferation of CBRNE defense, the 12th section emphasizes the reduction of the proliferation of weapons & their delivery systems and capability enhancements. Such a regulatory framework for the development of chemical biological radiological and nuclear defense marine solutions is anticipated to drive market growth.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Lack of Investments in Research and Development to Hamper the Market Growth


CBRNE incidents and attacks on various countries worldwide have derived the conclusion that governments worldwide have been lacking in the CBRNE situational awareness, a robust SOP for first responders, the prevention strategy. These factors have been influencing the market growth owing to the limited investments in biological radiological and nuclear defense (CBRN) capabilities.


The lack of stringent equipment manufacturing standards and lack of investments in the research and development (R&D) of defense product portfolio and solutions by governments have long been derailing the capabilities of the manufacturer to produce state-of-the-art equipment and solutions. Such factors are restraining the growth of the market.


Governments are anticipated to learn from such fiascoes and invest in CBRNE equipment for future risks posed by terrorist and non-state actors owing to the easy accessibility of chemicals and materials required for weapon manufacturing.


The R&D in defense manufacturing and regulatory framework for non-proliferation has been widely limited to the developed and some of the developing economies. This has prevented the widespread capabilities’ enhancements of UN member states from the risks of proliferation into their states and defense capabilities against the CBRNE attacks.
