Passive Radar Market

Passive Radar Market Outlook 2030 -

Passive radar is distinct from traditional forms of the radar in that it does not emit any electromagnetic radiation. Instead, it depends on reflections from other electromagnetic signals in the atmosphere in order to provide a radar picture. Passive radar offers several distinct advantages that will allow it to corner a significant portion of defense, civilian radar, and homeland security markets. The defense sector is expected to be the major market for the adoption of passive radar systems, to detect low flying aircraft and shape-dependent stealth aircraft, during the forecast period. The response speed of radar for the detected target and classifying it as a threat are likely to be the crucial factors, while the effects of noise and clutter can affect detection adversely.

COVID-19 Impact analysis

The overall effect of the COVID-19 outbreak is impacting the production process of several industries of passive radar market. As government of different provinces have already announced total lockdown and temporarily shutdown of industries, the overall production process being adversely affected; thus, hinder the overall passive radar market globally. The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting the society and overall economy across the global. The impact of this outbreak is growing day-by-day as well as affecting the supply chain. The crisis is creating uncertainty in the stock market, falling business confidence, massive slowing of supply chain, and increasing panic among the customer segments. The European countries under lockdowns have suffered major loss of business and revenue, due to the shutdown of manufacturing units in the region. The operations of the production and manufacturing industries have been heavily impacted by the outbreak of the COVID-19 disease; thereby, leading to slowdown in the growth of the radar market in 2020. Cancellation of several military exercises between nations and reduction in military activities worldwide due to COVID-19, has been impacting adversely to military radars market as demand of relevant spare parts is also low. Post COVID-19, military radars market can see a significant growth as several countries have either already ordered or planning to procure military drones for their forces.

Top Impacting Factors

• Growth in defense sector, rise in security concerns among countries, and demand for cost efficient technology are driving the growth of the market.  
• Lack of electromagnetic waves in the target area can render the passive radar systems useless is expected to hamper the growth of the market.
• Environment friendly can be seen as an opportunity for the market investments.

The passive radar market trends are as follows:

Rise in security concerns among countries

Growth in regional conflicts, border disputes, and growth in terrorist activities has raised the security concerns among countries. Such concerns have enabled countries to procure advance defense systems such as military radars. For instance, in October 2018, India signed a deal with Russia to procure S400 missile defense system for 5.43 million USD (S400 system is equipped with advance radars, which can detect multiple targets from a distance of 600 Kms). Hence, due to security concerns, countries are procuring advance military systems such as passive radars and thereby creating demand in global passive radar market.

Growth in defense sector

Currently, the defense segment has the largest market share in the passive radars market. The use of stealth technology in the design of newer generation fighter jets is widespread currently, and it plays a crucial role in military affairs. On the other hand, research on counter stealth threats has also gained considerable attention these days. Passive radar has advanced a long way over the past two decades, due to the advancements in technology and increased investment from the armed forces and research institutions. Few companies are developing advanced air defense systems with passive sensor systems that will offer the silent power of early warning and air situation picture without the use of active radars, to the air defense system. The recent advancements made by China and Russia in stealth fighter jets has raised concern for the United States that has, over the past, invested more on stealth technology rather than counter stealth systems. China’s J-20A and Russia’s Su-57 are expected to compel the countries in the region, to opt for defensive systems, like passive radars, in the coming years.
