Sonar systems, typically the abbreviation for sound, navigation, and ranging systems, primarily work to remain in touch, navigate, and trace lost objects or threats in the water using sound waves. According to the research report issued by the MarkNtel Advisors, the Global Sonar System Market size was valued at approximately USD1.5 billion in 2022 and is assessed to rise at a CAGR of about 6.9% during the forecast period, i.e., 2023-28.
The increasing usage of sonars in Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) to enrich their capacities & the advancements, such as Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) in the systems to bring about images with high-resolutions are significant factors in heightening the growth of the Global Sonar System Market. Moreover, the geopolitical risks and the scenarios regarding terrorism have compelled many countries to escalate their budgets concerning defense & safety to deploy nuclear submarines and construct warships for precautionary purposes are further predicted to aid in the growth of the given market.
Furthermore, the research report also states that other notable factors likely to boost the Global Sonar System Market are the enhancements & developments in AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles) along with the rising necessity for UUVs (Unmanned Underwater Vehicles).
Global Sonar System Market Opportunity:
Growing Recognition of the Extensive Benefits Offered by Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs): Sonar, being a crucial component of unmanned underwater vehicles, has witnessed a surge in its demand, resulting in substantial market growth, i.e., swiftly pushed by the increasing popularity of UUVs, including remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROUVs) and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) across Military and defense, Oceanography, Oil and gas industry, Underwater archaeology and Search and rescue.
Glancing at the Top Players of the Global Sonar System Market
The major companies leading in the Global Sonar System Market include Reytheon, Thales, Lockheed Martin, L3, Ultra Electronics, Kongsberg Gruppen, Teledyne, Sonardyne, Atlas Elektronik, Furuno, etc. The companies are constantly evolving and strengthening their position to remain in the industry’s competition.
