Global Surge In Demand For Advanced Search And Rescue Helicopters Drives Market Growth: A Key Factor Shaping the Future of the Search And Rescue Helicopter Market in 2025

What combination of drivers is leading to accelerated growth in the search and rescue helicopter market?
The expansion of the search and rescue helicopter market is predicted to be driven by various countries' growing needs for advanced search and rescue helicopters. The entirety of the civil world is covered by these helicopters as they are widely employed in search and rescue operations. They cater to the rapid and safe transport demands of the military, law enforcement, public safety, and other search and rescue applications. For instance, Bristow Helicopters Ltd., a civil helicopter operator based in the UK, entered into a £1.6 billion ($2.0 billion) agreement with the United Kingdom's Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) in July 2022. The agreement, which spans ten years, incorporates the supply of 18 helicopters, including existing Leonardo AW189s and Sikorsky S92As, and is bolstered by the addition of Leonardo AW139 helicopters and a mobile, deployable Schiebel S-100 drone system. Thus, the global surge in demand for advanced search and rescue helicopters is propelling the growth of this particular market.
