By end user, the military segment is projected to account for the largest market share in 2026
In terms of end user, the military segment is expected to capture the largest share of the US ammunition market in 2026, owing to structured multi-year acquisition programs led by the US Army and Marine Corps for artillery rounds, armored vehicle ammunition, and air-delivered munitions. Extra funding under supplemental defense budgets and emergency replenishment packages also pushes large volume procurement. The expansion of government-owned ammunition plants and new investments in surge capacity also improve domestic production levels. In addition, higher ammunition usage at combat training centers keeps bulk demand steady and consistent.
Based on guidance, the guided segment is expected to register the highest CAGR from 2026 to 2031
By guidance, the guided segment is anticipated to record the highest growth rate during the forecast period. This growth is largely due to the steady shift toward precision strike concepts and the need to get better first-shot results in complex battle situations. There is a growing effort to add GPS, laser guidance, and advanced targeting systems to artillery and mortar rounds. This is gradually moving budgets toward smart ammunition. The US Department of Defense focuses more on limiting collateral damage and improving engagement range.
General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (US), CSG (US), Northrop Grumman (US), Winchester Ammunition (US), and Hornady Manufacturing (US) are among the major players in the US ammunition market.
