Undersea warfare can be defined as the naval implementation of submarines and other undersea systems in military operations in the underwater domain. The systems used in these warfare missions are both offensive and defensive and comprises surveillance, insertion of Special Forces, and destroying or neutralizing enemy military forces and undersea infrastructure. The growth of undersea warfare systems market can be attributed to the significant growth in computer processing power which is expected to induce new Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) capabilities. Additionally, advancement in battery and fuel cell technology, and introduction of advanced long-range sensors, such as LF active sonar or wake detection, are further driving the global undersea warfare systems market.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON UNDERSEA WARFARE SYSTEMS MARKET
The outbreak of the COVID-19 has severely impacted defense-related industries. The disruption in supply chain led to a drastic slowdown in the production rate of dominant defense manufacturers. However, various geo-political conflicts have proved the requirement of different naval powers to upgrade their warfare systems. This also ensures the coastal and maritime security, further amplifying the demand for Undersea Warfare Systems. For instance, In the US, after the FY 2021 award of the first COLUMBIA class ballistic missile submarine, which is planned to replace the aging OHIO class submarine, the FY 2022 budget request continues critical research and development and other key funding for the program. This is creating a positive ecosystem of different players in the undersea warfare systems market. The global demand for advanced naval systems is stable since the budget for highly critical defense projects was allocated before the pandemic.
