Electronically Scanned Array Market Size

ID: MRFR//5271-HCR | 100 Pages | Author: Sejal Akre| November 2024

Electronically Scanned Array (ESA) market landscape and growth trends are shaped by several variables. Growing need for sophisticated radar systems in military and aerospace applications drives it. Modern warfare requires advanced radar technology like ESA to improve situational awareness and danger identification. This need drives market growth, driving manufacturers to spend in R&D to produce cutting-edge ESA solutions that satisfy global military forces' changing needs.

Technological advances shape ESA market dynamics. As radar technology advance, ESA systems with improved performance, agility, and adaptability are sought. ESA is chosen for military and aerospace applications due to its quick beam steering, target tracking, and electronic beam shaping. Thus, market participants innovate to provide ESA systems with improved functionality and lower SWaP.

The Electronically Scanned Array (ESA) market is expected to reach USD 12.15 billion in 2021 and expand 7% from 2022 to 2030. The worldwide market may be hampered by the time needed to upgrade radar systems on a broad scale.

Geopolitical concerns affect the ESA market since governments engage in defense modernization. Advanced radar systems, notably ESA-equipped ones, are essential for national security. The geopolitical scenario and military modernization projects drive market expansion as defense companies seek cutting-edge ESA solutions to compete in a complicated and competitive environment.

Since defense budgets affect radar system purchases, economic factors drive the ESA market. Economic stability, government spending priorities, and regional geopolitical issues affect defense and security budget. Defense budget fluctuations affect the industry, thus manufacturers actively study global economic and geopolitical events to forecast demand swings and alter their tactics.

Commercializing ESA technology for non-defense uses including weather monitoring, air traffic control, and satellite communication is boosting the industry. The adaptability of ESA systems in meeting varied needs beyond the military sector makes them appealing to more end-users. This multiplicity of uses boosts the market, pushing producers to customize their products to other areas.

Regulations and compliance requirements also affect the ESA industry. Defense applications are delicate, hence strict requirements are necessary. To receive regulatory clearance, ESA system manufacturers must achieve particular requirements and certifications. This regulatory structure complicates development and marketing, affecting market competitiveness.

Global Electronically Scanned Array Market Overview:



Electronically Scanned Array Market Size Anticipated To Reach at a USD 12.15 Billion In 2021 with CAGR Of 7% by 2024-2032.



Electronically scanned array systems comprise of a compilation of antennas that can project the resultant radio beam in different directions without moving the antennas themselves. The signal produced by electronically scanned arrays can be produced in various shapes, effectively resulting in “maneuverability” for the beam. Radars using electronically scanned array systems present several advantages, including increased resistance to electronic jamming and improved reliability.


The benefits of electronically scanned arrays are coming to the fore with increasing research, which is leading to its increased adoption in military forces around the world. The active efforts taken by several governments around the world to create a smart and technologically advanced army rather than a numerous but technologically hampered one have led to increased adoption of electronically scanned array systems in aircraft around the world. Leading military spenders such as the U.S. are taking a pioneering role in eliminating the traditional baggage of a manual, human-powered army and creating a technologically powered, automated army. This has led to increased spending on technologies such as electronically assisted array systems and is likely to remain a major driver for the market over the forecast period.


On the other hand, the long time taken to replace radar systems en masse is likely to be a major restraint on the global market over the forecast period.
