Global Radar Systems and Technology Market Growth (Status and Outlook) 2025-2031

The global Radar Systems and Technology market size is predicted to grow from US$ 23130 million in 2025 to US$ 28390 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.5% from 2025 to 2031.

Radar is an object-detection system that uses radio waves to determine the range, angle, or velocity of objects. It can be used to detect aircraft, ships, spacecraft, guided missiles, motor vehicles, weather formations, and terrain. A radar system consists of a transmitter producing electromagnetic waves in the radio or microwaves domain, a transmitting antenna, a receiving antenna (often the same antenna is used for transmitting and receiving) and a receiver and processor to determine properties of the objects. Radio waves (pulsed or continuous) from the transmitter reflect off the object and return to the receiver, giving information about the object's location and speed.

The global radar systems market is poised for steady growth, driven by rising defense budgets, increasing demand in the automotive sector, technological advancements, and expanding applications in aviation, weather monitoring, and industrial automation. North America and Asia-Pacific are expected to be key growth regions, while advancements in AI, 5G, and solid-state technologies will further propel the market in the coming years.

Increased Defense Budgets: Many countries, particularly in Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and Europe, are ramping up defense spending to enhance national security. Radar systems play a crucial role in modern military operations, including air defense, missile detection, and surveillance.

Technological Advancements in Military Radars: Nations are investing in advanced radar systems, such as phased-array radars, 3D radars, and multi-static radars that offer better accuracy, range, and the ability to track multiple targets simultaneously. There’s also a growing focus on counter-stealth radars to detect stealth aircraft.

Demand for Unmanned Systems: Military applications of radar technology are extending to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and drones, which use radars for navigation and target tracking.

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS): The adoption of millimeter-wave radars in vehicles is surging as part of ADAS. These radars are used for adaptive cruise control, lane departure warnings, and collision avoidance systems, playing a key role in improving vehicle safety.

Autonomous Vehicles: The push toward autonomous driving technology is accelerating the demand for radar systems that provide real-time environment sensing. Millimeter-wave radars, along with lidar and camera systems, form the backbone of sensors in self-driving cars.

Increasing Automotive Production: In emerging markets, automotive manufacturing is on the rise, fueling demand for automotive radars. Regulatory mandates for vehicle safety in regions like Europe and North America are further contributing to market growth.
