Cruise Missile Market by Launch Platform (Air, Surface Combatants, Land and Submarine), Range (Short-range Missiles, Medium-range Missiles and Long-range Missiles), Application (Attack and Defensive) and Speed (Subsonic, Supersonic and Hypersonic): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2022-2029

Cruise Missile Market Outlook - 2027

Cruise missiles are unmanned, guided, and self-propelled missiles targeted to deliver warheads with high precision. Over the years, the influence and application of missiles in modern warfare strategies have increased, urging the military & defense segment of nations to maintain a significant amount of cruise missiles. In addition, upgrading of technology has enabled modern cruise missiles to self-navigate, fly on a non-ballistic and extremely low-altitude trajectory, and travel at hypersonic and supersonic speeds. Moreover, these missiles are widely used in the attacking segment of the military where missiles of different ranges are put to diverse uses.

Top impacting factors: Market scenario analysis, trends, drivers, and impact analysis

The strategic gains of procuring cruise missiles surge the demand and application of cruise missiles in the military & defense. In addition, the growing defense budget and increased governmental stress on bolstering the military assets increase the demand for the product. Moreover, with advancement of technologies, manufacturers were able to develop advanced missiles with longer ranges and high speeds, which, in turn, are anticipated to foster the application of cruise missiles. However, high manufacturing and maintenance costs, followed by budget constraints are expected to hamper market growth. 

The global cruise missile market trends are as follows:

Growing defense budget to boost the market potential

Cruise missiles play a major role in the defense strategies of all nations; therefore, a certain amount of budget is precisely allocated to the same. In addition, countries across the globe augment their military & defense segment by increasing their military budget. Moreover, growing political and territorial issues across the borders of nations are anticipated to rise the military budget, thereby propelling the demand for cruise missiles. Growth in the defense budget is anticipated to enhance the combat capabilities of nations, allowing proper execution of planned strategies supported by adequate funding. In addition, government organizations tend to improve security systems by bolstering the military base of one’s nation by upgrading the military base. Therefore, the market flourishes with optimum demand from the same. Furthermore, the growing threat of terrorism and anti-security activities fosters the market growth. 

Advancement in technology to proliferate the market growth 

Hypersonic missiles can travel five times more than the speed of sound. On encountering national security threats and perceiving the same for the future, the defense segment urges the need to deploy reliable hypersonic missiles. Moreover, one of the prominent reasons stressing the acquisition of hypersonic missiles is that no weapon can stand against the speed of hypersonic missiles, which makes them the strongest cruise missile among all others. In addition, their speed makes them formidable and developed nations seek to bolster their military warfare with integrating hypersonic technology into the existing missiles.
