Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Man-Portable Rocket Launcher Market 2017-2021" report to their offering.

The report forecasts the global man-portable rocket launcher market to grow at a CAGR of 5.03% during the period 2017-2021.

A rocket launcher is any weapon system that launches a rocket/missile-propelled projectile. Rocket launchers come in various sizes, shapes, and uses. Depending on the method of application, they can be classified into infantry variant rocket launchers like man-portable and large-scale variants like vehicle-mounted rocket launchers. While man-portable rocket launchers can be carried by an individual or group of individuals to the site of operation, vehicle-mounted rocket launchers are the ones that are mounted on any kind of vehicles such as aircraft, ships, trucks, tankers, and armored vehicles.

The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global man-portable rocket launcher market for 2017-2021. To calculate the market size, the report considers man-portable rocket launchers, including man-portable air defense systems (MANPADS) that find applications in both the military and homeland security sectors for various operations such as air, ground, and naval strikes.

According to the report, one driver in the market is growing usage by law enforcement agencies. Law enforcement agencies across countries have started using portable rocket launchers to fight internal extremism and terrorism and to maintain the overall law and order situation within the country. Since 1990, the US police department has been receiving over $4.3 billion worth equipment like machine guns, rocket launchers or grenades, and mine-resistant ambush protected vehicles. Further, the excess military equipment available to army troops is handed over to the state police.
