Military actuators are components utilized in military machinery and equipment to facilitate automation and movement. An actuator, within a machine or system, plays a role in generating mechanical force by converting energy, often in the form of electricity, air, or hydraulic power.
The primary types of military actuators include linear and rotary actuators. Linear actuators are devices that facilitate movement in a linear motion between two points. In the military, linear actuators are employed for tasks such as motion control, torque transmission, and equipment automation. They are integral components in various military vehicles, including artillery carriers, fighter planes, tanks, sailing ships, and others. The diverse components of military actuators encompass cylinders, drives, servo valves, manifolds, and others, forming systems such as hydraulic actuators, electrical actuators, pneumatic actuators, electromechanical actuators, and more. Military actuators find applications across the armed forces in land, air, and sea operations.

The military actuators market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.48 billion in 2023 to $1.64 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.0%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to investments in aerospace and defense, advancements in weapon systems, the integration of automation in military machinery, the integration of naval systems, and the expansion of unmanned systems.
The military actuators market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.43 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the modernization of defense systems, an increase in unmanned systems, a rise in cybersecurity concerns, a shift towards smart actuators, and advancements in robotics. Significant trends expected in the forecast period include adaptation to harsh environments, an increase in robotics and autonomous systems, an emphasis on stealth and low noise, increased reliability and redundancy, and the adoption of smart actuators.
The substantial increase in military spending globally is expected to be a significant driving force behind the growth of the military actuators market in the coming years. Military spending encompasses government expenditures on weapons, equipment, and personnel for military purposes. Military actuators play a crucial role in providing motion control, torque provision, and equipment automation essential for logistics, transport, weapon operation, and other critical applications in the military sector. The key catalyst for the military actuators market is the escalating military spending by various countries worldwide. As indicated by data released in April 2022 by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), global military expenditure witnessed a real-term increase of 0.7% in 2021, reaching $2,113 billion. Therefore, the upward trajectory of military spending is poised to propel the military actuators market.
The growing menace of cyberattacks is anticipated to drive the expansion of the military actuators market in the foreseeable future. Cyberattacks involve deliberate, malicious actions aimed at exploiting vulnerabilities in computer systems, networks, or digital devices to compromise data or gain unauthorized access. Military actuators incorporate cybersecurity measures to fortify defense systems against cyber threats, ensuring secure and resilient operation. For instance, data from January 2023 provided by Checkpoint, an Israel-based cybersecurity solutions provider, revealed a 38% increase in global cyberattacks in 2022 compared to 2021. Consequently, the escalating threat of cyberattacks is a significant factor fueling the growth of the military actuators market.
Major players in the military actuators market are strategically focusing on the development of precision motion controls, such as industrial electromechanical actuators, to drive market revenues. Industrial electromechanical actuators are devices that convert electrical energy into mechanical movement, commonly used in industrial applications for precision motion control and automation. For instance, in October 2021, Curtiss-Wright, a US-based provider of engineered products and services, introduced the Exlar SA-R080 rotary and SA-L080 linear actuator, representing the first frame size (80 mm) in its industrial electromechanical actuator series. Equipped with integral power and control electronics, a rear manual drive for emergency operation, a magnetic absolute encoder, and corrosion-resistant epoxy housing, the SA-080 series meets stringent environmental standards. Designed for defense, industrial, and commercial applications requiring precision motion control in harsh environments, it complies with MIL-STD-810G and incorporates communication protocols such as RS-232 and CANopen.
Major players in the military actuators market are also prioritizing the delivery of innovative systems, including control actuation systems, to gain a competitive advantage. Control actuation systems translate signals from a control system into physical action and are commonly employed in aerospace and defense applications for precise control. For instance, in May 2021, Marotta Controls, a US-based aerospace company, successfully completed a custom fin Control Actuation System (CAS) design project for Lockheed Martin. The CAS integrates actuators with a single electrical board to drive both motors for two actuator axes, showcasing technical achievements in compact design, performance, and cost-effectiveness.
In September 2021, Fairbanks Morse Defense (FMD), a US-based naval engine manufacturer, acquired Hunt Valve Company Inc. for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition expanded FMD's service offerings and capabilities for shipyard, defense, and industrial clients, reinforcing its support for the U.S. Nuclear Navy. Hunt Valve Company Inc., a US-based manufacturer, specializes in naval valves and electromechanical actuators.
