Electronic Warfare Systems Global Market Report 2024

Description

Electronic warfare systems comprise a suite of technologies and capabilities crafted to manipulate or exploit electromagnetic energy for military purposes, both offensive and defensive. These systems are integral to modern military operations, used to disrupt or deceive enemy communications, radar, and other electronic systems, thereby gaining a tactical advantage, enhancing situational awareness, and safeguarding friendly forces from electronic threats.

Key products within electronic warfare systems include jammers, countermeasure systems, decoys, directed-energy weapons, and others. Jammers are devices employed to disrupt or block communication signals, radar, or other electronic systems, causing interference and impeding enemy capabilities. These systems offer capabilities categorized as electronic support, electronic attack, and electronic protection, applicable across airborne, naval, and land-based operations.

The electronic warfare systems research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides electronic warfare systems market statistics, including the electronic warfare systems industry's global market size, regional shares, competitors with a electronic warfare systems market share, detailed electronic warfare systems market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the electronic warfare systems industry. This electronic warfare systems market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.

The electronic warfare systems market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $17.09 billion in 2023 to $18.01 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4%. The growth observed during the historical period can be attributed to various factors, including military modernization initiatives, heightened geopolitical tensions, expanded defense budgets, shifts in the threat landscape, and the proliferation of electronic warfare capabilities.

The electronic warfare systems market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $22.43 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several key drivers, including the increasing demand for spectrum dominance, the expansion of cyber warfare capabilities, a focus on network-centric warfare, an emphasis on counter-unmanned aircraft system (UAS) capabilities, and a growing demand for electronic warfare training and simulation. Major trends expected during this period encompass the adoption of cognitive electronic warfare systems, an emphasis on electronic warfare resilience and survivability, the development of multifunctional and software-defined systems, the rise of cognitive electronic attack techniques, and a heightened focus on spectrum management and electronic spectrum superiority.

The escalation of territorial disputes and geopolitical instability is poised to drive the expansion of the electronic warfare systems market in the foreseeable future. Territorial disputes entail conflicts between two or more states regarding the control or ownership of specific geographical areas, while geopolitical instability encompasses unpredictable and volatile conditions within and between nations, often stemming from shifts in power dynamics, regional conflicts, or geopolitical rivalries. In contexts marked by territorial disputes and geopolitical instability, electronic warfare systems play a crucial role by providing capabilities that can influence battlespace information, control the electromagnetic spectrum, and restrict adversaries' access to certain areas or airspace. For instance, data from the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP) revealed a significant rise in conflict-related deaths and drone attacks preceding Russia's invasion of Ukraine, with over 100,000 total deaths recorded in 2021 and a 40.8% increase in drone attacks in 2022. Hence, the prevalence of territorial disputes and geopolitical instability serves as a catalyst for the growth of the electronic warfare systems market.

Prominent companies in the electronic warfare systems market are intensifying their focus on developing technologically advanced solutions, such as the airborne self-protection EW suite, to enhance warfare capabilities and offer superior combat offerings. This suite comprises electronic countermeasure systems designed to safeguard aircraft from various threats, including radar-guided and infrared-guided missiles, and hostile electronic emissions. For instance, Elbit Systems Ltd., an Israel-based defense contractor and military technology company, unveiled a novel electronic warfare capability integrated into their established Airborne self-protection EW suite at the Paris Airshow in June 2023. This new capability, facilitated through digital radar warning receivers (RWR), enables drone detection, identification, and the localization of personal location beacons (PLB) for ground forces and pilots. The comprehensive EW suite, operational across numerous rotary-wing and fixed-wing aircraft, incorporates diverse components such as an EW controller, IR missile warning system (MWS), laser warning systems (LWS), and countermeasure dispenser system (CMDS) to bolster platform protection and aircrew survivability against advanced threats.

In July 2023, Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), an Israel-based aerospace and aviation manufacturer, acquired Hela Systems Private Limited, an India-based manufacturer specializing in radar and electronic warfare systems, communication systems, and microwave supercomponents. This strategic acquisition enables IAI to fortify its commitment to the Indian government's agenda by introducing enhanced maintenance, repair, overhaul support, and advanced testing services. Moreover, it provides IAI with a competitive edge in the electronic warfare systems market, bolstering its capabilities to address evolving defense requirements amid geopolitical uncertainties.
