Rockets Missiles Market Share

Global Rockets and Missiles Market Overview

Rockets and Missiles Market Size was valued at USD 58.9 Billion in 2022. The Rockets and Missiles market industry is projected to grow from USD 62.0 Billion in 2023 to USD 93.0 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.20% during the forecast period (2023 - 2032). The rise in territorial disputes, the requirement for more sophisticated rockets and missiles to combat contemporary border fighting, and the increased defence spending in emerging nations are all factors, are the key market drivers enhancing the market growth.

Rockets and Missiles Market Trends

• The increasing territorial conflicts is driving the market growth

The majority of territorial disputes arise as a result of a nation's domination or absolute sovereignty over natural resources such rich farmland, rivers, minerals, and oil reserves. For instance, a number of islands in the East China Sea are claimed by both China and Japan. They are referred to as the Senkaku Islands in Japan and the Diaoyu Islands in China. As a result, hostilities between the two nations have gotten worse. The ongoing struggle between Israelis and Palestinians is another significant source of strife in the Middle East. The conflict is centred on competing territorial claims between Jordan and the Mediterranean. Additionally, territorial disputes are a major contributor to wars and terrorism since states typically try to occupy territories in order to assert their authority over them, while non-state actors employ terrorism to try to sway the actions of governments. Additionally, several countries enhanced their border security and surveillance capacities with cutting-edge weaponry, missiles, and anti-missile systems, and they used missiles in civil wars to seize territory as a result of the growth in such incidents and territorial conflicts. For instance, in April 2022, in retaliation for Ukrainian forces' assaults or sabotage on Russian territory, Russia increased the scope of its missile strikes on Kyiv. The fight between Armenia and Azerbaijan over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh territory also made extensive use of missiles, drones, and rocket artillery in September 2020. During the projection period, it is anticipated that the increasing use of rocket and missile systems in territorial conflicts would fuel market expansion.

To establish dominance on the battlefield, governments of nations including Russia, the U.S., China, India, and others are boosting their spending on armed forces. The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) estimates that overall worldwide military spending increased by 2.6 percent from 2019 to $1981 billion in 2020. Additionally, as international wars and terrorist attacks in various locations develop, nations are forced to strengthen their militaries through improvements in weaponry, which raises the demand for self-guided missiles and rockets. Thus, driving the Rockets and Missiles market revenue.

Rockets and Missiles Market Segment Insights

Rockets and Missiles Speed Insights

The Rockets and Missiles Market segmentation, based on Speed, includes subsonic, supersonic, and hypersonic. Subsonic segment dominated the global market in 2022. A propulsion system is included in hypersonic rockets and missiles so they can travel at speeds of Mach 5 or greater, which is five times the speed of sound. Precision-guided weapons that travel at hypersonic speeds are challenging to block. These weapons are currently in the development stage and should become operational soon.

Rockets and Missiles Product Insights

The Rockets and Missiles Market segmentation, based on Product, includes cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, rockets, and torpedoes. Cruise missiles segment dominated the global market in 2022. Because they are chosen for striking land and sea targets, cruise missiles are more in demand than other missiles, which are more specialised and have a smaller application.

Rockets and Missiles Propulsion Type Insights

The Rockets and Missiles Market segmentation, based on Propulsion Type, includes solid, liquid, hybrid, ramjet, turbojet, and scramjet. Solid segment dominated the Rockets and Missiles Market in 2022. Due to the solid fuel's advantage in storage, ballistic systems have begun to employ it more frequently, which is responsible for the rise in usage. Solid fuel is capable of producing a considerable amount of thrust. Liquid fuels are made up of hydrocarbons.

Rockets and Missiles Guidance Mechanism Insights

The Rockets and Missiles Market segmentation, based on Guidance Mechanism, includes guided and unguided. Guided segment dominated the Rockets and Missiles Market in 2022. The rising need for guided rockets and missiles is to blame for this.

Rockets and Missiles Launch Mode Insights

The Rockets and Missiles Market segmentation, based on Launch Mode, includes surface to surface, surface to air, air to air, air to surface, and subsea to surface. Surface to surface segment dominated the Rockets and Missiles Market in 2022. From the water or the ground, surface-to-surface rockets and missiles are launched. They can be fired from permanent facilities, mobile platforms, or handheld weapons. These missiles are intended to strike targets on land or at sea and are utilised in land combat operations. They are also referred to as ground-to-ground rockets and missiles for this reason.
