Satellite Manufacturing And Launch Market Trends

• Rise in Demand for Satellite Aided Warfare to boost the market growth

Government agencies and defense forces are conducting multiple tests and demonstrations worldwide to build space warfare capabilities. Surface-to-space warfare, used for attacking satellites from the ground, space-to-space warfare, such as satellite attacks against satellites, and space-to-ground warfare, such as satellite attacks against Earth-based objects, are all distinct forms of space warfare. In addition, the military works with satellite manufacturers to design, develop and manufacture communications satellites for training officers. Thus driving the market CAGR.

For instance,In July 2022, the Indian Army wanted to use a small communications satellite to train students for the Communications Corps of the Army's College of Communications Engineering. The United States, Russia, India, and other major economies have developed specialized Space Force groups to build space defense infrastructure. For instance, the Government of India established the Defense Space Agency (DSA) in April 2019. This agency is responsible for India's space warfare and satellite intelligence services. Militaries globally are rapidly adopting satellite technology to supplement their defense capabilities.

The driving force behind advances in satellite mission technology is the demand for faster internet and telecommunications that bring accessibility to people worldwide. Satellites that produce high-resolution multispectral imagery and advanced geospatial analysis are driving new developments that make navigation easier, roads safer and vehicles more accessible. GPS is based on more detailed and accurate maps created by the ability of satellites to map a location's terrain and its spatial context in detail. Satellites also cover a much wider area and can return to a specific location daily for more detailed information.

However, interference in satellite data transmission hamper the growth of Satellite Manufacturing And Launch market revenue.

Satellite Manufacturing And Launch Market Segment Insights

Satellite Manufacturing And Launch Application Insights

The satellite manufacturing and launch market segmentation has been bifurcated by application into Commercial, Military, and Government. The military segment dominated the Satellite Manufacturing And Launch market data in 2022. It was mainly because the militaries worldwide are bolstering satellite networks to conduct more efficient intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions that inherently require secure and robust communication channels that militaries can access from anywhere. Armed forces demand more data bandwidth and reliable communications infrastructure to meet their growing demands for massive data transfers. Tactical communication systems, tactical data links, modern network-centric combat capabilities, and advanced SATCOM developments are important applications for military communications satellites. Improving the use of SATCOM will simplify C4ISR integration, improve UAV use, and enable higher levels of management, support, and personal welfare services. In addition, countries are emphasizing the launch of communications satellites for better data transmission capabilities.

For instance, November 2021 Three CERES satellites were launched onboard the Vega rocket. The military signals intelligence satellite was developed for the French armed forces with Airbus as the prime contractor and Thales in charge of the payload, user ground segment, and satellite platform. The satellite was developed for Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) applications. This initiative has further broadened the growth opportunity for the Satellite Manufacturing And Launch industry.
