The global military displays market was valued at USD 1.3 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.6% from 2025 to 2034.
The military displays industry continues to expand as armed forces worldwide seek enhanced situational awareness and real-time communication capabilities. Modern defense systems incorporate high-resolution, multifunctional displays that combine radar, GPS, and night vision technologies. The integration of augmented reality and heads-up display systems enables military personnel to make faster decisions and execute missions more effectively. These technological advancements improve combat coordination and operational safety, driving increased adoption of advanced display systems across various defense applications.
For instance, in August 2024, US Air Force installed a Special Mission Display Processor in the C-130J Super Hercules aircraft at Robins Air Force Base, Georgia. This new system strengthens aircraft protection, improves situational awareness, and enables better communication during flight operations through a tactical radio mesh network. The processor connects aircrew, ground forces, and vessels in real-time, while featuring a display screen, color radar, digital maps, and night vision capabilities for low-light missions.

The military displays industry is evolving toward integrated solutions that enhance operational effectiveness across defense sectors. The increasing need for real-time situational awareness drives the development of displays with augmented reality (AR), 3D visualization, and holographic capabilities to improve decision-making and mission execution. Military displays are becoming more rugged, lightweight, and energy-efficient to meet operational requirements across ground, aerial, and naval platforms. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) enables predictive analytics and automated threat detection, making displays more responsive and intuitive. The industry emphasizes interoperability and data-sharing capabilities between defense systems to support coordinated military operations.
