AIRBORNE WARNING AND CONTROL SYSTEM MARKET

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

Airborne Warning & Control Set (AW&C) is a collection of equipment for locating and monitoring hostile or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), as well as other enemies. Operators both aboard and on the ground are also able to recognize and evaluate the threat. The market for airborne warning and control systems is expanding as a result of the growing defense budget and increased research and development in defense technologies. For instance, SIPRI estimates that in 2020 US military spending increased to an estimated USD 778 billion, up 4.4% from 2019, and that China's military spending, the second-highest in the world, reached an estimated USD 252 billion. This implies a rise of 1.9% from 2019 and 76% over the years 2011 to 2020. Additionally, according to The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, in December 2021, Boeing and CSIRO, Australia's national science agency, initiated a new five-year, USD 41 million research program with strategic priorities incorporating boosting aviation sustainability, digital twin and model-based engineering, space, and using technologies to increase factory safety and productivity. Additionally, with the increased emphasis on security issues, the adoption and demand for Airborne Warning and Control systems are projected to boost market growth throughout the course of the forecast year. However, throughout the projection period of 2022–2030, the market's growth is hindered by high research costs and supply chain disruption brought on by the COVID 19 pandemic.

COVID-19 IMPACT ON THE AIRBORNE WARNING AND CONTROL SYSTEM MARKET

The COVID-19 pandemic hindered the growth of the airborne warning and control system market because of the significant interruption in supply chain and production operations as well as the ban on international trade. Government-imposed social restrictions meant to prevent the spread of SARS-CoV-2 severely interrupted supply chain operations and decreased production of a range of products and services. The pandemic's effects on the aviation sector's development in 2020 were further limited by a lack of innovations, component production, and aircraft acquisition. The lockdowns had a direct effect on the market for airborne warning and control systems by affecting the production of helicopters, commercial and military aircraft, and both. Additionally, throughout the pandemic and post-pandemic recovery phases, businesses in the aerospace & military sector had to make difficult choices about their supply chains. In important areas of aircraft manufacture, the pandemic temporarily halted operations. As a result, several significant technologies and component suppliers switched their attention to lowering costs and scaling back production. In 2020, these elements had a detrimental effect on the market participants for airborne fading systems. Major military sector companies saw a disturbance in the supply chain at the start of the COVID-19 outbreak as a result of the closure of manufacturing sites and limitations on international transportation. For instance, BAE Systems encountered delays in both industry-wide procurement and government calls for bids. However, several defense projects progressively became available as a result of the government’s urgent need to secure a powerful defense force. For instance, from the start of the epidemic and January 31, 2021, the US government invested $4.6 billion in the defense-industrial base. In addition, despite the rise in geopolitical tensions and the enhanced air defense assistance provided by airborne warning and control systems, the defense budgets of major countries were unaffected in 2021. Because of the interruptions in the worldwide supply chain caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the industry initially suffered, but in 2021 the market is beginning to recover as a result of governments' eagerness to fund crucial defense programs.

MARKET DRIVERS: 

Increasing defense spending will help the global market for airborne warning and control systems

The worldwide market for airborne warning and control systems has been driven by the rapid advancement of military technologies and the adoption of better security measures by both emerging and developed nations. The airborne warning and control systems are challenging to follow because of their increased movement, especially at higher altitudes. This industry has been under focus because of the growing necessity to monitor adversary activity to be prepared, particularly for nations involved in the conflict. Market expansion has recently been aided by rising defense spending and investments in the creation of advanced technology.

Successful Integration of IoT, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Machine Learning is a Vital Industry Trend that is promoting the market growth

Drones are an emerging trend in business that is attracting interest from a variety of industries for surveillance purposes. Technology upgrades to cameras, microcontrollers, sensors, CPUs, etc. have improved the drone product line. In-built measuring and annotation tools that can compute volume, area, and distance are being developed by the firms. The UAVs can store and analyze a significant quantity of data thanks to machine learning, IoT, and AI. Therefore, the integration of modern technology such as Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning is paving way for market growth

Growing Use of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) for Military Purposes Will Promote Growth

Traditionally, rotary- and fixed-wing aircraft have been used for aerial surveillance. These procedures cost money and take a lot of time. In comparison to conventional aircraft, drones operate more quickly and at a lower cost. As a consequence of their affordability and effective outcomes, drone purchases for surveillance purposes have increased. Additionally, the cost of producing drones has fallen due to the manufacturing sector's increased industrialization and automation. As a result, drones are widely available and inexpensive, which is anticipated to accelerate market expansion. With the use of their intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities, military drones collect data regarding combat missions in real-time. The expansion of the airborne warning and control system market is anticipated to be fueled by an increase in the purchase of UAVs to improve defense capabilities. Additionally, the market expansion is anticipated to be boosted by the rising defense budget due to the increased demand for improved intelligence collection and analysis capabilities.

MARKET RESTRAINTS:

Deploying an airborne warning and control system is expensive, which will restrain the growth

There are sensors, radars, cameras, and other parts that make up the aerial warning and control system. Accurate data can be provided by sophisticated sensors. But because of their intricate design, sensors are expensive to build. The design is complex since the components are subjected to harsh weather conditions, which drives up the cost. Due to its exceptional investigative capabilities, the light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensor is frequently used. The sensors, however, have a significant development cost. impedes market expansion as a result.
