Airborne Fire Control Radar Market Outlook 2025-2035: Key Developments and Future Scope
Airborne Fire Control Radar Market
According to Future Market Insights (FMI), the market is valued at USD 3.5 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 6.2 billion by 2035, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%.
The FMI report, "Airborne Fire Control Radar Market Size, Share, and Forecast 2025-2035," indicates global revenues will grow by USD 2.7 billion over the decade, driven by the need for advanced threat detection, missile guidance, and multi-mode operations amid rising geopolitical tensions and asymmetric warfare.
A Decade of Growth Anchored by AESA Advancements and UAV Integration:
The shift toward compact, multifunctional AESA and electronically scanned array (ESA) radars is redefining aerial combat dynamics. Between 2025 and 2030, the airborne fire control radar market will expand by USD 1.2 billion-representing 44.4% of total growth-led by fighter jet modernizations and AI-enhanced threat assessment in North America and Europe.
Between 2030 and 2035, FMI forecasts an additional USD 1.5 billion in market growth (55.6% of total), reflecting deeper integration of frequency-agile systems, network-centric warfare, and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) platforms for surveillance and strikes.
"Advancements in miniaturized components and digital signal processing are enabling radars that deliver unprecedented resolution and rapid target acquisition," said an FMI research analyst. "These innovations are critical as militaries prioritize precision strikes to minimize collateral damage in complex battlefields."
