Radome Market Size

The global radome market is projected to grow from USD 1.6 billion in 2021 to USD 3.1 billion by 2026 at a CAGR value of 15.2% between 2021 to 2026. Radomes are used extensively in military applications and the aerospace industry. Radomes are used to protect people from fast-moving antennas. Hence, the growing number of antenna installments for surveillance and communication are expected to drive the market. Radomes are made of materials that have reduced or no signal loss while receiving and transmitting signals in order to protect the antennas from harsh weather conditions.

Advancements in the development of novel materials that are applicable for radome construction are expected to supplement the growth of the market. Governments across the globe are increasing their spending on the research and development of novel composite materials suitable for radomes. These composite materials offer low signal attenuation while offering flexibility and the necessary protection to antennas which makes them ideal for application in radomes.

Radomes are present on aircraft-mounted antennas, ground antennas, and antennas use in naval fleets. The growing aircraft construction in the APAC region as governments invest heavily in aircraft manufacturing and the growing number of private manufacturers in the region are expected to contribute to the growing demand for radomes. Growing incidences of territorial disputes, terrorism, and political conflicts are increasing the demand for modern warfare solutions with advanced communication technologies.

The growing adoption of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) for military and civilian applications is also expected to supplement the growing demand for radomes. Compact radomes are developed for application in unmanned aerial vehicles with the help of novel composite materials. The growing intensity of research and development of carbon fiber-based radomes are also expected to stimulate the development of the radome market.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused shutdowns and supply chain restrictions which has decreased the adoption and manufacturing of radomes and hence hampered the market to a great extent. Product launches and development of novel radomes have been delayed. The market is expected to mend itself and slowly return to pre-pandemic growth rates.

The market is restrained by the stringent regulations imposed on the aircraft industry for their parts. The development of novel radomes requires intensive testing and has to pass various regulatory requirements before they can be marketed which delays the launch of products. The development of radome alternatives like active electronically scanned arrays will restrain the growth of the market.

global radome market

Radome Market: By Offering

Based on the offering, the market is segmented into products and services. The products segment is expected to hold the dominant share of the revenues generated in the market and showcase better growth rates than the services segment. The growing demand for radomes from aircraft manufacturers and the development of novel compact radomes for use in unmanned aerial vehicles are two of the major driver of the products segment.

Radome Market: By Platform

Based on the various platforms, the market is segmented into airborne, ground, and naval. The ground segment held the largest share of the revenues generated in the market. The naval segment will become the largest segment during the forecast period owing to its greater growth rate. The high demand for radomes due to a growing number of commercial airports, the need to protect workers from fast-moving antennas, a growing number of communication bases in areas with harsh weather conditions have been the major contributors to the dominance of the ground segment. The growing development of radomes with hydrophobic coatings that can protect antennas from water is expected to supplement the growth of the naval segment.

Radome Market: By Application

Based on the application, the market is segmented into radar, sonar, and communication antennas. The radar segment is expected to clutch the lion’s share of the market. Radar communication antennas can be highly affected by direct contact with harsh weather conditions. They require a great degree of protection with minimal signal attenuation to work efficiently. These factors have resulted in the large demand for radomes in radar applications. The growing investment by governments into the development of novel electronic warfare and defense systems and the need for information dissemination is expected to further the growth of the radar segment.

Radome Market: By Frequency

Based on the various frequencies, the market is segmented into HF/UHF/VHF-band, L-band, S-band, C-band, X-band, Ku-band, Ka-band, and multi-band. The Multi-Band segment is expected to hold the largest share of the revenues generated in the radome market and is expected to continue to do so during the forecast period. Multi-bands are used for the detection of moving objects. The growing adoption of automation in aircraft and naval ships, as well as the growing application of radomes in UAVs, have been the major drivers of the growth of the multi-band segment.

Radome Market: By Region

Based on region, the market can be broken into various regions such as North America, Europe, Central and South America, Middle East and Africa, and Asia Pacific regions. The North American region is expected to hold the dominant share of the market. The heavy investment by the governments in the region on defense and military applications, extensive R&D efforts into covert surveillance vehicles, and growing adoption of drones and other unmanned aerial vehicles have been the major drivers of the market in the North American region.

The APAC region is anticipated to become the largest market during the forecast period. The region’s growing aircraft manufacturing industry, a growing number of commercial airports, and growing investment in military technology are expected to supplement the rapid growth of the APAC market.
