Summary

Submarine Market Size and Trend Analysis by Segments (Nuclear-Powered Attack Submarine, Nuclear-Powered Ballistic Missile Submarine, Diesel Electric Submarine and Others), Key Programs, Competitive Landscape, Region and Forecast, 2023-2033 report provides a market size forecast and an estimated compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the next ten years. The report covers industry analysis, including the key market drivers, trends, emerging technologies, and major challenges faced by industry participants. It also offers insights regarding key factors and government programs that are expected to influence the demand for submarines over the forecast period.

Disputes over offshore territories and maritime boundaries, due to the need to exploit offshore resources, including unexplored oil and gas reserves and fertile fishing zones, are expected to be a major driver of the strengthening of submarine-based capabilities for many nations. For instance, the countries in the Asia-Pacific region have increased their military activities as a result of the rising geopolitical tensions surrounding the South China Sea. Significant investments are being made by nations like China, India, South Korea, and Australia to acquire advanced submarine classes. In addition, the need to maintain a credible sea-based deterrent by worldwide nuclear-armed countries is expected to further drive investment in the procurement of submarines over 2023–2033. With the evolution of sophisticated detection technologies, legacy fleets of submarines are gradually losing their relevance in terms of stealth. As a result, several navies around the world have begun programs to replace their aging submarine fleet, which will also influence the demand for submarines over the forecast period.

The nuclear-powered attack submarine (SSN) segment is expected to be the largest segment and account for 43.8% of the global submarine market over the forecast period. The SSN segment is expected to receive robust investment over the forecast period, owing to the advantages associated with SSNs compared to conventionally-powered submarines. These nuclear-powered submarines are designed to remain submerged and undetected for extended periods due to their stealth capability, which allows them to operate at high speeds with minimal noise, further enhancing their operational flexibility. Nuclear-powered submarines are expected to experience strong demand over the forecast period as countries with nuclear arms look to improve their submarine-based nuclear capability to support their military strategy of a nuclear triad. According to Kandlikar Venkatesh, Defense Analyst at GlobalData, Various countries around the world are enhancing their underwater warfare capabilities by commissioning advanced submarines, primarily to gain asymmetric advantages over their opponents, counter adversary forces, and protect territorial waters against any intrusion, which has resulted in the submarine market's growth.

North American region is expected to dominate the global submarine market between 2023 and 2033. The US accounts for the largest market for submarines in the North American region. The US’s dominance in the submarine market is influenced by the country’s affinity for advanced military platforms in order to maintain an edge over its adversaries. In line with this objective, the US has several ongoing high-value procurement programs aimed at acquiring the next generation of submarines. For instance, the Columbia-class submarine programme, which will replace the ageing Ohio-class submarines, is the US Navy’s top procurement priority. This program will seek to develop and deploy 12 SSBNs, which will significantly increase the country’s share in the global submarine market over the next decade.
