The Increasing Adoption of Unmanned Vehicle for Military Application is Driving the Growth of 3D Radar Market

Globally, the 3D radar market is expected to grow with a CAGR of 18.2% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033, starting from US$ 1250.4 Mn in 2021. The market is driven by the increasing adoption of the unmanned aerial vehicles for military operations and advance surveillance application. As the political tension across the countries is rising and the terrorist activities are increasing, the governments are shifting towards advance UAVs for borderline surveillance and monitoring. This has resulted in the increasing procurement of UAVs for military application. Since 3D radar is widely used across UAVs for remote sensing, the growing adoption of UAVs are estimated to drive the adoption of 3D radar.

The rising significance of the air traffic management solutions is further estimated to drive the adoption of the 3D radar systems. 3D radars are widely used across the military and civil aircrafts for collision detection and remote sensing applications. Its superior properties make it an ideal solution for air traffic management applications hence, driving the growth of the 3D radar market. However, the high cost of the 3D radar systems is estimated to be the major inhibitor in the growth of the market.  

Short Range Radar is Estimated to Grow Significantly During the Forecast Period  

The 3D radar market is categorized based on the range into long range, medium range, and short range. The long range 3D radar segment accounted for more than 62% share in the revenue in 2020. The growth of the market is driven by the large scale adoption of the long range radar systems in weather monitoring applications. It is used for accurate prediction of natural disasters. On the other hand, short range radar market is estimated to gain traction during the forecast period due to its wide scale adoption across the UAVs.

North America is Leading the 3D Radar Market                                             

North America led the global 3D radar market in 2021 with a market share of more than 41%. The growth of the market is driven by high spending on military and defense applications in the region. The Increasing activities for the procurement of UAVs for military applications are also acting as a major driver for the growth of the market. Additionally, the increasing research activities for the UAVs are also supporting the market growth in the region.
