Top Companies Leading the Artillery Systems Industry
The artillery systems sector is dominated by several influential players globally, which include China North Industries Corporation (NORINCO), Raytheon Technologies Corporation, Lockheed Martin Corporation, Hanwha Corporation, General Dynamics Corporation, Northrop Grumman Corporation, BAE Systems, Thales Group, Leonardo S.p.A., ST Engineering, Singapore Technologies Engineering Ltd, Science Applications International Corporation, Rheinmetall AG, Serco Group plc, Elbit Systems Ltd., Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd., Saab AB, Bharat Forge Limited, Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace AS, KMW+Nexter Defense Systems N.V., ASELSAN A.S., Hyundai Rotem Company, CMI Defence LLC., Cockerill Maintenance & Ingénierie, Nexter Group, and Denel SOC Ltd.

A notable recent development occurred in August 2023 when Rheinmetall AG, a German defense and automotive technology firm, acquired Expal Systems S.A.U. for $1.3 billion. This acquisition has allowed Rheinmetall to operate under the name Rheinmetall Expal Munitions and leverage Expal's expertise in artillery ammunition, mortars, medium-caliber rounds, fuzes, and rocket propulsion systems to fulfill substantial ammunition supply contracts.

Technological Advancements and Innovations Driving Market Trends
Industry players are concentrating on creating highly automated artillery systems to improve battlefield mobility and firepower. One such innovation is the automatic truck-mounted howitzer, which combines artillery firepower with rapid deployment capabilities. These systems mount a howitzer on a truck chassis, enabling swift movement and flexibility in various combat scenarios.

For example, in February 2024, China North Industries Group Corporation Limited (Norinco) introduced a new truck-mounted howitzer that features an unmanned turret equipped with a 155mm L/52 howitzer on a 6x6 truck chassis. This system weighs 32 tons and includes an earth spade at the rear to maintain stability during firing. Impressively, it requires only two crew members operating within an armored cab, highlighting the trend toward automation and reduced manpower requirements.
