Commercial radar systems are used for detecting aircraft, providing information about their presence, direction, distance, and speed. These systems consist of various components, including an array antenna front end, T/R (transmit/receive) modules, an array antenna backplane, a radar back end, a radar processor and display, and a radar scheduler.
The primary types of commercial radars include commercial aircraft radars, commercial helicopter radars, business jet radars, and UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) radars. Different technologies are deployed, including quantum radar, conventional radar, and software-defined radar (SDR). Additionally, radars are classified based on dimension types, which can be 2D (two-dimensional), 3D (three-dimensional), or 4D (four-dimensional). Quantum radar is a cutting-edge remote sensing technology that relies on quantum-mechanical effects, such as the uncertainty principle and quantum entanglement. Commercial radar systems have diverse applications, including surveillance radars, surface movement radars, precision approach radars, weather radars, and more.

The commercial radars market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5.81 billion in 2023 to $6.11 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2%. The growth observed during the historical period can be attributed to various factors, including the use of commercial radar in military and defense applications, aviation and air traffic control, maritime and ship navigation, weather forecasting, and security and surveillance.
The commercial radars market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.63 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including the integration of commercial radar systems in autonomous vehicles, the expansion of 5G networks, environmental monitoring, space debris tracking, and the management of drone and UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) traffic. Key trends expected in the forecast period encompass the adoption of phased array radars, radar fusion techniques, the development of compact and solid-state radar systems, the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning in radar technology, and the emergence of radar-as-a-service (RaaS) as a business model.
Increasing demand for drone detection systems (DDS) at airports is expected to drive the growth of the commercial radars market. Drones are dangerous for aircraft as they pose hazardous risks such as physical collision and radio frequency interference, which could lead to losing control over the plane, resulting in a crash. The cancellations, diversions, and delays of flights due to drones near airports pose a huge financial impact. In June 2022, Air Services Australia, an Australia-based government-owned organization, selected Thales as its primary system integrator for an Integrated Drone Surveillance System (IDSS) trial at Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport. ASEAN international airports are also utilising drone detection systems. Thus, the ever-increasing risks posed by drones to the aviation industry are increasing the demand for drone detection systems, which is expected to boost the growth of the commercial radars market.
The commercial radar market is expected to experience growth due to the increasing demand from the defense industry. The defense industry encompasses a wide array of entities involved in the development, production, and distribution of military equipment, technology, and services for armed forces. Commercial radar systems play a crucial role in the defense sector by offering advanced detection, tracking, and situational awareness capabilities. These systems enhance air and maritime security, support missile defense, and provide early warning capabilities vital for national defense and border surveillance. As an illustration, according to the UK government's Ministry of Defense (MOD) departmental resources 2022, defense spending for 2021-2022 reached $58.39 billion (£45.930 billion), reflecting an 8.4% increase from the previous year's $53.85 billion (£42.365 billion). Consequently, the growing demand from the defense industry is a significant driver of the commercial radar market's growth.
The safety of aircraft and individuals is challenged by runway incursions, which are expected to impede the commercial radar market during the forecast period. Runway incursions occur when aircraft, vehicles, personnel, or other objects are positioned incorrectly in areas where aircraft land or take off. To enhance safety and mitigate the risks associated with runway incursions, aviation authorities worldwide focus on preventing these incidents through infrastructure improvements, such as improved lighting, signage, markings, and configuration changes. In 2022, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), a US-based government transportation agency, reported 1,469 runway incursions at US airports in 2021. Notably, 86% of these incursions occurred at smaller airports, with only 14% taking place at the 28 busiest airports in the US. Among the incursions in 2021, 15 were classified as high risk, with 12 happening at airports outside the 28 busiest in the USA. Although most of the incursions were minor, they had significant implications. Furthermore, pilot errors were responsible for two-thirds of these incidents, and general aviation (GA) aircraft were involved in 81% of the cases. Hence, decreased safety and the increased damage caused by runway incursions are expected to hinder the growth of the commercial radar market during the forecast period.
One of the major opportunities for the commercial radar market within the aerospace sector lies in technological advancements and innovations in surface movement and air surveillance radars. Surface movement radars monitor the activities of aircraft and vehicles, providing guidance and support to ensure their safe and efficient movement in maneuvering areas. In November 2021, Thales, a France-based company specializing in electronic equipment and systems, introduced the Ground Master 400 Alpha, a long-range 3D surveillance radar. This radar boasts an extended range of up to 515 kilometers and incorporates advanced artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. It offers five times more processing power and enhances safety by identifying both short-range and long-range threats in real-time. Thus, technological advancements and innovations in surface movement and air surveillance radars, which monitor vehicular and human movements, represent significant opportunities for the commercial radar market.
Prominent companies in the commercial radar market are increasingly opting for strategic partnerships to launch advanced collision warning systems. Strategic partnerships involve the collaborative utilization of each company's strengths and resources to achieve mutually beneficial outcomes. As an example, Spartan Radar, a US-based radar software and hardware company, partnered with RiverPark Inc., a US-based commercial automotive industry company, in September 2023. Through this strategic partnership, both companies can deliver cutting-edge radar technology and have jointly introduced Hoplo, an advanced collision warning system revolutionizing fleet safety. Hoplo leverages robust 79 GHz technology to offer situational awareness, reliable detection, and reduced nuisance alerts.
In December 2021, Joby Aviation Inc., a US-based aircraft company, acquired Inras GmbH for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition enables Joby Aviation to develop purpose-built radar systems for onboard sensing and navigation. Inras GmbH, headquartered in Austria, is a commercial radar systems company engaged in radar system manufacturing and research activities.
