Electronic Warfare Market Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Global Industry Analysis: By Product Type (EW equipment and EW operational support) By Capability Type (Electronic Protection, Electronic Support, and Electronic Attack), By Equipment (Medical Imaging, Nuclear Medicine, Radioprotection, Oil Exploration, Process Industry, Life Sciences, and Others), By Platform (Jammer, Countermeasure system, Decoy, Directed-Energy Weapon, and Others), And Region Forecast 2020-2031

Electronic Warfare Market size was valued at US$ 17,792.2 million in 2023 and is poised to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2024-2030. Electronic warfare is used by the Department of Defense (DOD) for military actions that control the electromagnetic spectrum by utilizing electromagnetic energy and striking the enemy. Electronic warfare controls, commands, and support by permitting military commanders to contact the spectrum to connect with militaries while preventing potential challengers from retrieving the spectrum to create an operative image and interconnect with their forces. Electronic warfare has capabilities such as electronic support, electronic attack, and electronic protection. The increasing developments and innovations for novel warfare can lead to the growth of the market.

Moreover, increasing demand for intelligence, self-protection abilities, and surveillance and increasing adoption of electronic warfare products are some primary factors that can boost the global market. Apart from these, an increase in participation of tactical and strategic parts played by electronic warfare in contemporary warfare such as electronic attack, electronic support, and electronic protection can also accelerate the market in the future. However, some factors such as the increasing use of electronic warfare abilities on unmanned systems and the incapability to report diverse or multiple threats can restrain the growth of the market. The susceptibility of unmanned market that can be attacked by cyber-attackers can hinder the growth. Companies should focus on developing next-generation missile and air defense systems that can strengthen the armed forces further can create an opportunity for market growth.
