The global tactical communications market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period. Tactical operations are growing more sophisticated, necessitating the use of modern communication technologies and interoperable communication servers to manage battlefields and law enforcement missions efficiently. Integrated communication and coordination among team members and the remote HQ present various obstacles during tactical operations during a mission. Tactical communication systems are meant to provide a secure, integrated communication system and an interoperable communication server for voice, data, and video among the various forces participating in order to facilitate command and control of the operation.

The military's tactical communication capabilities are driven by the rapid transition toward asymmetric warfare. The global armed forces are concentrating on improving the network-based communication capabilities of their military equipment across the land, air, and sea domains to improve combat effectiveness, which is driving the market's growth. Increasing investments in the integration of modern battlefield technologies, as well as an increase in demand for network-centric warfare and satellite-based communication, are expected to drive the tactical communication market demand during the forecast period.

 The French Army is expected to be the solution's primary customer. The present 5G and upcoming 6G networks are intended to create new horizons in tactical communication for military troops on the ground by providing them with more data bandwidth, which will result in faster data speeds, better connectivity, and greater range. These technologies are also projected to improve the segment's prospects during the forecast period. For instance, in February 2021, the Indian Ministry of Defence (MoD) and Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) have agreed on a contract for almost $138 million for the procurement of Software Defined Radio Tactical (SDR-Tac) and in September 2020, the US Army Program Executive Office Command, Control, Communications-Tactical (PEO C3T) has awarded PacStar, a tactical network communications contract to deliver its PacStar 400-Series platform for SCOUT (Scalable Class of Unified Terminals) in support of the US Army Integrated Tactical Network (ITN) programme.
