The COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in a massive financial loss in APAC. The governments in Asia Pacific countries are taking possible steps to reduce its effects by announcing lockdown, which is negatively affecting the manufacturing sector. China is one of the leading defense manufacturing countries in APAC, and the most affected country in the region. Therefore, there are disruptions in the defense equipment manufacturing facilities across the region. India, another major defense spender in APAC, is heavily hit by the COVID-19 outbreak. The country’s manufacturing sector experienced standstill situation owing to the lockdown restrictions imposed by the government in the wake of containing the spread of the novel coronavirus. However, disordered supply chain has negatively influenced the procurement of defense equipment, including modular combat turret, since the late February 2021.                   

BAE Systems, Curtiss-Wright Corporation, Elbit System Ltd., Jenoptik AG, Leonardo S.P.A, Moog Inc., Otokar Otomotiv ve Savunma Sanayi A.S, and Rheinmetall AG are among the leading companies in the APAC modular combat turret market. The companies are focused on adopting organic growth strategies such as product launches and expansions to sustain their position in the dynamic market. For instance, in 2020, Curtiss-Wright Corporation announced that it has been awarded a contract by Rheinmetall Defense Australia to supply a turret drive stabilization system for the Australian Army's Project Land 400 Phase 2 Combat Reconnaissance Vehicle (CRV). Curtiss-Wright will supply 133 of its state-of-the-art Turret Drive Servo Systems (TDSS) and related hand controllers to Rheinmetall under the terms of the contract.
