Radar Market - Forecast(2024 - 2030)

Radar Market Overview:

Global Radar Market generated $35821 Million in revenue in 2023, and the revenue is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.32% from 2024 to 2030. According to a research done by Ploughshares Fund, 13,850 nuclear weapons are possessed by different countries, with the U.S. and Russia accounting for 92% of the total number.^[1] This increasing number of nuclear weapons has given rise to high security concerns. Owing to the potential threats, during the Second World War, the US navy had developed a device named RADAR, which is an acronym for Radio Detection And Ranging. Radar, an electronic detection system that uses radio waves to sense and detect objects such as weapons, missiles, aircraft, ships, and vehicles within a specific range. It comprises antennas, emitters, transmitters, and receivers. Apart from military applications, there are several other capabilities and applications of radar in automotive, weather forecasting, air traffic control systems ocean surveillance, and other applications.

North America held the maximum market share, accounting for approximately 37.48% of the total demand.  Increasing emphasis on security concerns, increasing terrorist attacks, rising nuclear bombing threats, high investments by governments, and technological furtherance are some of the prominent factors driving the North America radar market.

High budgets are provided by governments for the military sector to automate all the security and defense systems. Sophisticated radar systems are being developed and deployed in the military sector. According to IndustryARC analysts, the application segment is poised to grow at a healthy CAGR of 5.75% through 2025.

Radar Market Growth Drivers:

Radar Market Trends –

Solid State Electronics

During the first couple of decades of radars, vacuum electronics devices played a major role in supplying power to the amplifiers. Over the years, solid-state transmitters are gaining traction over vacuum electronics due to their reliability, performance, and advantage.

GaN-based amplifiers

Amplifiers play a prominent role in radar systems. Gallium Nitride (GaN) based amplifiers are capable of working at high voltages; as a result, high efficiency is acquired when compared to traditional amplifiers, subsequently increasing the efficiency and range of radars.
