"Based on propulsion type, solid segment is estimated to capture the largest share in the market during the forecast period"
The solid segment leads the rocket and missile market due to its reliability and ease of storage. Solid propulsion rockets apply solid propellants for thrust and apply to military missiles, including tactical as well as artillery rockets. Modular designs allow for maintenance and upgradability, while improvements in solid propellant chemistry increase stability and performance. Compact designs enhance storage efficiency and long shelf life means that munitions remain viable without special maintenance.
"Based on speed, the hypersonic segment forecasted to grow at highest CAGR during forecast period "
The hypersonic segment is developing as the fastest-growing within the rocket and missile market. Hypersonic rockets and missiles are intended to fly over Mach 5, meaning 6,174 km/h, which gives them the ability to deliver missiles onto the target significantly faster than traditional missiles. This enables improved precision and evasion of existing missile defense systems. Besides, governments and defense companies are investing in overcoming the challenges of achieving and maintaining hypersonic speeds. Advances are realized in the scramjet engine, heat-resistant materials and targeting systems themselves. Further improvements in computational modeling and simulation are also improving the design and performance of hypersonic systems. As these technologies advance and become cheaper, the demand for hypersonic rockets and missiles will continue to grow thus ensuring this market segment continues to have the highest growth rate within the markets.
" The North America region is estimated to be the largest market during the forecast period"
The rocket and missile market in North America is expected to lead in 2024. The US is the largest market for rockets and missiles in North America. With increased military expenditure, defense contracts, and advanced rocket and missile programs, the region is leading the market. Many key players are present in this region, working on advanced rocket and missile technologies.
