Key Driver
Rising asymmetric warfare, an increasing number of terrorist activities, and rising demand for robust surveillance systems all over the globe are key factors expected to drive the airborne optronics market growth. Along with supplying weapons at long range, combat aircraft are also designed with systems that offer real-time intelligence gathering and close air support to ground forces. Furthermore, the rapid adoption of advanced technologies like Artificial Intelligence,next-generation thermal cameras, High Definition (HD) cameras, multispectral technology, and state-of-the-art laser sensors are allowing major success in diverse surveillance and combat missions. These airborne optronics systems are constructed to withstand harsh weather conditions and extreme vibration during operation. Hence, demand has been rising rapidly for military, commercial, and aerospace applications in the recent past.
The Airborne Optronics market size is expected to witness a strong growth over the upcoming years, such as the augmenting demand for optoelectronic devices in military applications and the rising investment in research and development. The advent of latest optoelectronic technologies and the miniaturization of optoelectronic devices have bolstered the market growth. Factors like the increase in the fleet of commercial and combat aircraft and rising application of electro-optics in unmanned vehicles are expected to propel the market growth. Increasing demand for optoelectronic devices in military applications such as target acquisition, night vision, and navigation has strengthened the market growth. Thus, the emerging need for improved situational awareness will offer enormous opportunities for the market. With the rising incidences of conflicts, the awareness about preventing the citizens from increasing the demand for advanced technologies, influencing the market growth.
Restraint in the Airborne Optronics Market
However, the increasing risk of collateral damage and fires due to inaccurate weapon systems in a combat zone is a major restraining factor that is hampering the airborne optronics industry. Moreover, the high cost of airborne optronics systems and the emerging need for specialized training and expertise to operate and maintain these systems will further hamper the market growth.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Airborne Optronics Market
The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted the end-use verticals adversely, resulting in a sudden decline in 2020 aircraft orders and deliveries. This is forecasted to negatively impact the aircraft industry market in the short term, with a slow recovery expected in the first quarter of 2021.

System – Segment Analysis
Based on the System, the Surveillance system is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the growing application of small UAVs in the military sector as well as long-range and high-altitude UAVs to assist with battlefield intelligence. Small UAVs helps in monitoring enemy forces or specific locations and send video feedback to base stations with the help of GPS. On the other hand, UAVs are used for ISR operations to record information of potential targets that are otherwise challenging to detect.
Application – Segment Analysis
Based on the Application, the Commercial segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to diverse commercial applications of airborne optronics. The use of drones is not limited to surveying applications and aerial imaging. UAVs are also coupled with artificial intelligence (AI) to carry out a wide range of commercial operations, including preventive maintenance, facility surveys, rapid emergency response, security, and land surveys. Moreover, the demand for drone services in different verticals is also increasing, with the rise in the use of UAVs.
