Radar System Market Report 2026

The Business Research Company's Radar System Market Report 2026 – Market Size, Trends, And Global Forecast 2026-2035

LONDON, GREATER LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, January 16, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- "The radar system market has experienced significant expansion in recent years, driven by advancements in technology and rising demand across multiple sectors. As radar technologies become increasingly sophisticated and integrated into diverse applications, the market is set to continue its upward trajectory. Let’s explore the current statistics, key growth drivers, regional outlook, and future trends shaping this dynamic industry.

Radar System Market Size and Growth Outlook Through 2026 and Beyond
The radar system market has demonstrated strong growth, with its size expected to increase from $37.4 billion in 2025 to $40.68 billion in 2026, marking a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. This historical expansion is mainly due to the wider adoption of continuous wave and pulsed radar technologies across defense and civilian sectors, rising air traffic management needs driving new radar installations, improvements in signal processing that enhance detection accuracy, and the growth of maritime surveillance and border control systems. Additionally, modernization efforts by defense forces to upgrade legacy radar infrastructure have contributed significantly to this growth.
Looking ahead, the market is projected to grow further, reaching $54.64 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 7.7%. This future growth is expected to be fueled by increasing demand for multifunction and software-defined radar architectures, greater integration of radar systems with unmanned and autonomous platforms, innovations in semiconductor technology that improve radar range and resolution, and a rise in the procurement of defensive radar systems for counter-UAS (unmanned aerial systems) and missile detection. The expanding use of compact, low-power radars in commercial and automotive fields also plays a major role. Prominent trends shaping the market include the miniaturization of radar components, development of multi-band and multi-mode systems, incorporation into autonomous vehicles, advanced signal processing, and real-time data analytics and fusion.

How Radar Systems Detect and Track Objects
Radar systems operate by transmitting electromagnetic signals into the environment and then analyzing the echoes reflected back from objects such as ships, vehicles, and aircraft. This process allows radar to detect and determine the location of various targets with precision. By interpreting the returned signals, radar can provide critical situational awareness for defense, navigation, and surveillance applications.

Military Spending as a Primary Driver of Radar Market Expansion
One of the main forces propelling the radar system market forward is the rising global military expenditure. Military spending refers to the funds allocated to maintain armed forces and defense operations, commonly included within a country's defense budget. Increasing investments in lightweight radar technologies, concerns over bolstering national defense capabilities, government initiatives, and technological advancements are all contributing factors. For example, in April 2024, the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, a US-based private organization, reported that U.S. defense spending increased by $55 billion between 2022 and 2023. This surge in military budgets is directly supporting the radar system market’s growth.
