Maritime Patrol Aircraft Market

Global Maritime Patrol Aircraft Market Size (2022 to 2027)

The global market for maritime-patrol aircraft is expected to rise dramatically by 2027. As per our report, the global market for maritime patrol aircraft is estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 6.41% from 2022 to 2027 and worth USD 26.77 billion by 2027 from USD 19.62 billion in 2022.

The maritime patrol is an actual aircraft for countries with vast coastlines. Maritime patrols in the current day have advanced capabilities. They are also an asset to the naval forces. It's a technology with many features, like sensors that can be used for anti-ship, anti-submarine, and idea monitoring applications. Due to high market demand, the cost of maritime patrol aircraft is rising. As a result, some countries incorporate maritime patrol aircraft elements into their existing fleets. Maritime patrol aircraft, on the other hand, are in high demand. Terrorism and border security worries are further estimated to promote the growth rate of the global maritime patrol aircraft market. The maritime patrol aircraft has a wide range of durable properties and uses. As a result, Casa maritime patrol planes are becoming increasingly common.

Impact of Covid-19 on the global maritime patrol aircraft market:

The covid-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the markets for maritime patrol aircraft around the globe. During the pandemic, many governments reduced their total defense budget. However, several governments are expected to impose budget cuts in reaction to the economic depression brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. Defense purchases have been delayed because of the economic downturn. It has an impact on the market for maritime patrols. Production has dropped in the maritime-patrol market. These factors may have an impact on plans to purchase large patrol aircraft. Moreover, the availability of surveillance drones as low-cost alternatives and a growing desire for such UAVs may hinder market expansion throughout the forecast period.

MARKET DRIVERS:

The demand for maritime patrol aircraft is growing because of regional conflicts. Recent border challenges and rising terrorism worries have prompted increased military expenditures. Many countries are deploying maritime patrol aircraft to their military bases. The number of international conflicts is likely to rise in the next few years. As a result, the maritime surveillance market is experiencing a surge in demand. The marine patrol market is being driven by the rise of global threats and terrorism. In the military, replacing existing aircraft is a typical practice. In this industry, upgrading the aircraft with new features is essential.

Furthermore, the global market for maritime patrol aircraft is estimated to be growing because of aircraft replacement due to deterioration. The maritime patrol is the Navy's newest high-end aircraft. Replacing old aircraft with the most up-to-date maritime patrol aircraft is a key demand driver. The replacement of U.K. maritime patrol aircraft has recently enhanced the market's profitability. The replacement of aircraft by large nations constantly increases the market's overall demand and profitability. Because maritime aircraft are efficient and high-capacity, most vendors prefer to buy them. Another important driver for this sector is the government's decision to outfit the navy base with powerful aircraft.

MARKET RESTRAINTS:

The cost of a maritime patrol aircraft is expensive. It is a massive investment for any country. The costly initial expenditure is a stumbling block to global maritime patrol aircraft market expansion. Demand for the product may decrease in the following years because of its high price. Some countries may decide on more cost-effective maritime patrol aircraft alternatives. The maritime patrol aircraft is also a significant piece of equipment. The high cost of participation and the dynamic nature of technology can restrict overall industry growth. This element may also impact the market's profitability over the forecast period.

REPORT COVERAGE:

This research report on the global maritime patrol aircraft market has been segmented and sub-segmented into the following categories.

Maritime Patrol Aircraft Market - By Type:

• Fixed-Wing
• Rotary-Wing

The fixed-wing segment is expected to dominate the maritime patrol aircraft market due to increased defense appropriations for combat aircraft and a rise in demand for expanding the air force fleet.

Maritime Patrol Aircraft Market - By Engine:

• Turbofan
• Turboprop

The turbofan segment is anticipated to have the highest growth maritime patrol aircraft market during the forecast period. Maritime Patrol Aircraft (MPAs) driven by turbofan engines have a longer endurance due to a reduced fuel burn rate. Hence, their engine efficiency is higher than that of their turboprop counterpart. Because current market demand for new-generation turbofan-powered MPAs is substantially smaller than that for turboprop MPAs, adoption is likely to increase during the forecast period as global rules on aviation carbon emissions increase. Moreover, various procurements and modernization programs are ongoing around the globe as states with maritime borders want to improve their maritime ISR capabilities. The manufacturer planned to deliver 111 P-8s to the U.S. Navy, 12 to the Royal Australian Air Force, nine to the Royal Air Force of the United Kingdom, five to Norway, and four to the Indian Navy as of January 2019.

Maritime Patrol Aircraft Market - By Region:

• North America 
• Asia-Pacific
• Europe
• Latin America
• Middle-East-America

Asia-Pacific is expected to have the highest growth in the global maritime patrol aircraft market during the forecast period. Increasing military spending, fuelled by ongoing tensions between Asia-Pacific countries, is expected to grow during the forecast period. Another reason for the governments in this region to purchase new aircraft is the aging fleet of maritime patrol aircraft. Japan has received 15 P-1s to replace its fleet of P-3C Orion's, which were developed in-house. The market for maritime patrol aircraft in this region is predicted to grow strongly throughout the forecast period, owing to orders and expected deliveries and ongoing territorial disputes.

North America is predicted to hold the largest maritime patrol aircraft market share in the global market during the forecast period. It's a well-known place for its well-equipped navy base. As a result, the usage of maritime patrol aircraft is increasing exponentially in North America. The market is mainly driven by government regulations that promote maritime operations. Furthermore, the United States' defense industry substantially contributes to the market. In 2026, North America will have the most considerable demand.

Moreover, profitability and market growth would be at their peak over the predicted period. This is because the major players are releasing a slew of new products. As a result, it will eventually boost the market's overall growth.

KEY MARKET PLAYERS:

The Boeing Company, Lockheed Martin Corporation, Airbus S.E., Textron Inc., Dassault Aviation SA, AVIC, RUAG, Textron Inc., Leonardo S.P.A., Saab AB, and Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd are a few of the notable players in the global maritime patrol aircraft market and profiled in this report.

RECENT MARKET DEVELOPMENTS:

• In October 2021, Boeing delivered the 11th P-8I maritime patrol aircraft to the Indian Navy. The MPA can be used for disaster relief and humanitarian operations and has anti-submarine warfare (ASW) capabilities. The U.S. Navy, the Royal Australian Air Force, and the Royal Air Force of the United Kingdom all use the P-8 series. Boeing also provides Indian Navy flight personnel with P-8I training, spare parts and field service representative assistance, and ground support equipment.
