AESA RADAR MARKET: OVERVIEW

The AESA Radar Market Size was valued at USD 7.20 Billion in 2021, the market is projected to grow USD 16.30 Billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 5.60%.
 

The advantages of active electronically scanned arrays, such as their ability to create numerous beams simultaneously and use groups of TRMs for multiple functions concurrently are driving the global market. Due to their ability to operate independently, active electronically scanned array systems are more reliable than conventional passive electronically scanned array designs. Individual failures have little impact on the overall performance of the system. Furthermore, the modules run independently at low powers of between 40 and 60 watts, negating the requirement for a high voltage power source. Active electronically scanned arrays are quickly becoming the dominant segment and are being used for a variety of applications with airborne installations. This is expected to boost market growth during the forecast period.
 

COVID-19 ANALYSIS

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the worldwide aerospace and defense (A&D) manufacturing industry has been experiencing unprecedented upheaval. The defense industry is anticipated to remain steady and expand, nonetheless, as the majority of nations have not cut their defense spending and are still committed to maintaining their military prowess. Some of the most obvious consequences of the pandemic's influence on the defense industry are supply-side interruptions. Businesses in nations that have been severely hit by COVID-19 or those reliant on supply chains that are based in affected countries have been the pandemic's first casualties. Thus, some of the defense programs may experience temporary cost increases and delays as a result of the wider supply chain disruption.
 

AESA RADAR MARKET: TREND

Rising Demand of AESA Radars in New-Generation Fighter Aircraft Boost Market Growth

The majority of modern fighter aircraft are outfitted with AESA systems, which has led to an increase in the employment of AESA radars. Some of the most popular fighter jet models now on the market, including the F-22, F-35, Dassault Rafale, Eurofighter Typhoon, and Boeing F/A-18E/F, all include these radars. One of the largest AESA radar manufacturers in the world, Northrop Grumman, was given a request in February 2020 to upgrade 72 US Air Force F-16s with its APG-83 Scalable Agile Beam Radar to satisfy a joint emergent operational requirement for homeland defense put forth by the US Northern Command.  As a result, it is anticipated that there will be an increase in the deliveries of aircraft equipped with AESA radars.
 

AESA RADAR MARKET: DRIVERS

Increasing Application of AESA Radars in Defense Sector Propel Market Growth

The active phased array radar system enables ships and airplanes to emit potent radar signals while yet staying stealthy since it can disperse signal emissions across a larger frequency range, making them difficult to detect over background noise. The ESSM and SM-2 Block IIIA missiles are supported by the active phased array radar's missile guidance capability. Active phased array radar is the predominant type of radar employed in modern combat aircraft. As a result, the defense industry is a primary driver of the AESA radar market.

Based on Range, the market is categorized into Very Long (> 500 km), Long (200-500 km), Medium (50-200 km), Short (10-50 Km), and Very Short (< 10 Km). Based on Platform, the market is categorized into Airborne, Land-Based, and Ship-Borne. Based on the Region, the market is categorized into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. 
 

SEGMENTATION: BY REGION

Based on the Region, the Global AESA Radar Market is categorized into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa.
 

The North America region is expected to dominate the market share owing to the biggest defense spending by the United States and the purchase of cutting-edge military radars that are to blame for the growth. The market is expected to increase as a result of efforts and programs like the Air and Missile Defense Radar and Three-Dimensional Expeditionary Long-Range Radar. Important OEMs like Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and others also contribute to the market's expansion.
 

Europe is predicted to be the second-most prominent region in the market due to the expanding military modernization initiatives. Spain, Germany, and other countries where military spending has risen year over year are anticipated to make a demand. German defense electronics and Sensor Company HENSOLDT and Airbus Defense and Space agreed to a USD 1.70 billion contract in July 2020 to supply all new AESA Radars for the Eurofighter fleets of Germany and Spain. According to the contract, the business would provide 130 aircraft with fighter aircraft radar components such as digital multi-channel receivers, antenna receivers, and transmitter modules.
 

The Asia Pacific is expected to highest growth during the projection period. The demand for advanced threat detection systems is rising in the Asia-Pacific as a result of the region's developing cross-border problems and geopolitical tensions in nations like China-India and India-Pakistan. The Indian Defense Ministry and Mahindra Telephonic signed a contract in June 2021 to buy eleven airport surveillance radars for the Indian Coast Guard and Indian Navy.
