Defense Drone Antenna Market Size, Industry Segments by 2028

According to the new research report published by The Insight Partners, titled “Defense Drone Antenna Market was valued at US$ 3,925.61 million in 2019 and is projected to reach US$ 6,505.28 million by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.0% during the forecast period from 2020 to 2025.

The production of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAVs) requires a substantial number of electronic components for the data recording and transmission applications as well as for avionic functions. The antennas are among the most vital electronic components of any UAV, as these antennas enable the vehicle to transmit data to and receive data from other systems, as well as the people on the ground. The antennas which are utilized on unmanned vehicles are, in general, flexible, rugged dipole, or blade antennas with omnidirectional coverage. Thus, as the demand for UAVs increases, the need for a broader range of antennas is rising for data communications systems, payloads, and command and control systems.

Military forces utilize unmanned technologies for purposes such as surveillance, communications, navigation, and signal intelligence (SIGINT). The military forces are continuously seeking advanced technologies with an objective to enhance the capabilities of the unmanned vehicles. The linear polarized omnidirectional antennas are among the preferred antenna technologies. However, the preference for circular polarized omnidirectional antennas is rising at an exponential rate. The modern-day military drones need to constantly move or maneuver to gather higher volumes of information; thus, sometimes they need to adopt acrobatic flying. The circular antennas are smaller, which offer added advantage for easy maneuverability. In addition to smaller antenna size, the ability to transmit the collected data at 360° is gathering interest of defense forces as well as the defense drone manufacturers. Moreover, the military forces demand exceptional quality of captured data and images among the military forces, and these antennas facilitate the transmission of high-quality images during the drone flight at close proximity of the target. Such benefits of circular omnidirectional antennas are contributing to the defense drone antenna market growth.

Based on industry, the communication segment dominated the global defense drone antenna market in 2019. The UAV manufacturers are continuously emphasizing, integrating state of the art communication system with an objective to facilitate the military personnel at the Base Station to communicate with the UAV. In order to integrate the best communication systems, the need for communication antenna is of supreme significance. Attributing to the fact that the importance of communication antenna on a UAV, the demand for the antenna is anticipated to remain high throughout the forecast period.

Based on technology, the linear polarized omnidirectional antenna segment dominated the global defense drone antenna market in 2019. The linear antennas project a wave along a singular plane, horizontal or vertical. This kind of polarization facilitates more energy to be transmitted, as the wave simply moves in one direction.

The recent COVID-19 outbreak has significantly affected the world and is continuing to shatter the economies of several countries. Until the outbreak of COVID-19, the defense industry was experiencing substantial growth in terms of production and services; however, the outbreak of the virus has severely disrupted the supply chain and manufacturing of defense equipment. However, the contractors are better positioned, as they are not expected to feel the adverse impact of COVID-19 in the short- to mid-term. While production is anticipated to slow down for the same reasons as in drone and its related components manufacturing, demand is unlikely to be affected over the next two years since the budget for these projects had been assigned prior to the pandemic and these projects are crucial to national defense. The recovery period of impact of COVID-19 on defense industry is foreseen to be quicker as compared to various other industries.
