The Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS), is an airborne radar system mounted on an aircraft and is a portable, long-range surveillance radar and control centre used for air defense. These systems' primary objective is to locate far-off targets, such as ships, missiles, and airplanes. By offering more effective look-ahead capability and thorough coverage of a wide volume of airspace, these airborne systems provide them an advantage over ground-based radar systems. They are used to determine ships, aircraft, and vehicles at long geographical regions ranging can up to 400 km or more.

This market has experienced growth due to rising geopolitical conflicts and the requirement to be well-equipped cutting-edge defense technologies. To handle battles and conduct aerial surveillance, these electronic radar-based control systems were invented. This market has gained attention due to the growing need for security, particularly for countries involved in a conflict. Collectively, application in long-range surveillance of airspace and use in military application is the main factor driving the market growth of AWACS.

Historic Market Outlook for Global Airborne Warning and Control System

The analysis of Airborne Warning and Control System demand from 2017 to 2021 showed a historical growth rate of less than 5.80% CAGR, with the adoption of the latest & improved security solutions and growing expansion & investments in defense sector for developing sophisticated technology in developing as well as developed countries has been driving the market growth.

The world economy was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The AWACS market was also no different, there were problems in the supply chain. Hence, the deliveries of the new systems were delayed, also countries were reluctant to give new order or delayed the order confirmation during that time period.

Thus, the AWACS market was impacted as well as benefit in the historic period. When the virus spread started decreasing at the beginning of 2021, the market of AWACS shows a V shape recovery in the global market. As a result, FMI’s Global Airborne Warning and Control System demand projection predict a CAGR of 9.10% by 2032.

What are the Various Factors Driving the Global Airborne Warning and Control System Market?

Factors like a growing concern for national safety, adoption of improved safe and secure solutions by countries worldwide, increasing geopolitical conflicts between countries, safety purpose of passenger aircraft, and increasing budgets regarding national security of several economies are responsible for growth in Airborne Warning and Control System market.

The growing international illicit activities and geopolitical conflicts between neighbouring countries enforced the countries defense authorities to install the AWACS system in their respective mission aircraft. Due to this growing tension between countries, defense technologies need to be well-equipped with the latest possible security solution to monitor enemy improper activities.

In times of political instability, the demand for airborne warning and control systems has been on the rise. These advanced electronic RADAR-based systems are designed to achieve battle management and carry out airborne surveillance.

Thus, technical advancement in security technology, the development of RADAR-based advanced systems, and security concerns of countries drive the market growth of airborne warning and control systems in the forecasted period.
