Leading Players in the Rocket Ground Support Systems Market
Several prominent companies are shaping the rocket ground support systems industry today. These include Raytheon Technologies Corporation, The Boeing Company, Lockheed Martin Corporation, Airbus, General Dynamics, Northrop Grumman Corporation, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd., Thales Group, Moog Inc., ArianeGroup, United Launch Alliance (ULA), OHB SE, Kratos Defense & Security Solutions Inc., Firefly Aerospace, Redwire Corporation, Swedish Space Corporation, Unimech Aerospace Pvt. Ltd., Dedienne Aerospace SAS, ColumbusJACK/Regent, and RST Rostock System-Technik GmbH.
A notable development occurred in July 2023 when L3Harris Technologies, a US-based defense technology firm, acquired Aerojet Rocketdyne for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition strengthens L3Harris's position as a key player in defense and space propulsion by incorporating Aerojet Rocketdyne's advanced rocket engines and hypersonic technologies into its product portfolio. Aerojet Rocketdyne is also a US-based manufacturer specializing in rocket ground systems.

Key Trends Positively Influencing Rocket Ground Support Systems Market Growth
Industry leaders are increasingly focusing on the development of advanced ground support products such as automated flame trench and diverter systems. These systems enhance the durability of launch infrastructure and enable faster launch turnarounds. Flame trenches and diverters are crucial for redirecting and cooling the intense rocket exhaust, using water-cooled steel structures to make liftoffs safer and more efficient.
For example, in May 2025, SpaceX launched the Orbital Launch Mount (OLM) for Pad B at its Starbase facility, incorporating an upgraded flame trench equipped with diverter buckets, integrated water cooling, and a reinforced mount design. These features improve heat management and protect ground assets while facilitating rapid reusability for frequent launches. The mount is specifically designed to support the Starship-Super Heavy system, marking a major upgrade that enhances pad durability and promotes quicker launch cycles at Starbase's second orbital launch pad.
