Special Mission Aircraft Market Size Worth USD 23.98 Billion in 2032 | Emergen Research

Rising demand for special mission aircraft for aerial intelligence and surveillance and increasing use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in military operations are major factors driving Special Mission Aircraft Market revenue growth


Vancouver, Feb. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global special mission aircraft market size was USD 15.09 Billion in 2022 and is expected to register a rapid revenue CAGR of 6.7% during the forecast period. Rising demand for special mission aircraft for aerial intelligence and surveillance and increasing use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in military operations are major factors driving market revenue growth. Military and law enforcement organizations are extensively utilizing special mission aircraft for intricate military operations, encompassing electronic intelligence (ELINT), gathering, detection and tracking, Intelligent surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), Casualty Evacuation (CASEVAC), Search And Rescue (SAR), countering illegal activities such as drug trafficking, piracy, and smuggling, and safeguarding territorial waters.

In addition, Moreover, integration of special mission aircraft into maritime surveillance operations, Anti-Surface unit Warfare (AsuW), Over-The-Horizon Targeting (OTHT) is also expected to drive market revenue growth during the forecast period. Special mission aircraft utilizes various sensors, including search radar, Electro Optical/ Infrared (EO/IR) systems, and electronic surveillance measures, to detect and monitor maritime activities. For instance, in May 2023, Diamond Aircraft Industries delivered four Diamond DA62 MPP special mission aircraft to The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) for 24/7 aerial surveillance of oil pipelines.

Fluctuation of raw material prices and global supply chain issues in components delivery are significantly impacting on the manufacturing cost of special mission aircraft, which could restrain market revenue growth. Transport Association (IATA), global inflation reached 9.2% in 2022 which is almost double the rate in March 2021. Manufacturing special mission aircraft involves numerous sophisticated sensors, and components such as Radar Systems, Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) Systems, Avionics Systems, signal intelligence (SIGINT) receivers, Power, and Electrical Systems, and others. These components are primarily sourced from tier-1 and tier-2 parts manufacturing companies across the world as a result prices and supply of such components are highly affected by several macroeconomic factors including fuel prices, trade policies, tariffs, and regulatory changes, which could also restrain market revenue growth.
