A Noteworthy Industry Development-

• April 2020: Lockheed Martin, an advanced technologies company headquartered in the U.S. provided its first ever Q-53 system equipped with GaN to the U.S. Army. This will help the Army to enhance and grow the system’s capabilities for catering to the transforming mission needs. These modules will offer the radar with high reliability and additional power. At the same time, they will have multi-mission, counterfire target acquisition (CTA), and extended range.

Further Report Findings-

• In 2019, North America procured USD 7.38 billion in terms of revenue. The region is set to dominate throughout the forthcoming years backed by the rising implementation of gallium nitride devices and other innovative technologies in Canada and the U.S. Also, several private companies, such as Qorvo and Texas Instruments Incorporated are trying to raise funds to develop GaN devices in the U.S.


• Asia Pacific is expected to grow considerably because of the high demand for GaN devices from developing countries, namely, India and China. They are increasingly using them in the defense industry.


• Based on end-users, the information and communication technology segment is likely to lead by holding the largest gallium nitride devices market share. The rising adoption of IoT for commercial applications is one of the major factors for the growth of this segment.
