Global Aerostat Systems Market Overview

An aerostat is a system that uses light gases such as hydrogen, helium and hot air gases as to lift the aerostat from the ground surface. Aerostat can rise up to 4600m from the ground surface. They are used for surveillance, intelligence and reconnaissance by military forces. Altitude, payload carrying capacity, operating temperature and wind speed are some of the parameters which are considered during the design and manufacturing of aerostat systems.Aerostats systems are lighter than air (LTA) aircraft and are cost effective and mobile. They are easier to deploy and assemble. The fuel consumption in aerostat systems is very less and they require less maintenance.

Market Size and Forecast

The aerostat systems market, in terms of value, is expected to grow rapidly during the forecasted period at a CAGR of 16.10%. Increasing need for accurate geospatial information is expected to augment the growth of aerostat systems market globally. It is also expected that the demand for aerostat systems will grow over the forecasted period due to the wide use of aerostat systems in aerial surveillance, border security, intelligence gathering, aerial advertising and scientific research.Growing ability of aerostat systems to provide persistent surveillance for a longer duration and increasing focus on using economical solutions for surveillance is also expected to augment the growth of aerostats systems over the forecasted period.

In terms of regional platform, North America holds the latest market share in aerostat systems market due to the acceptance and already existing usage of large amount of aerostats in homeland and border security. U.S. is one of the largest military spenders across the globe and has invested considerable amount of money in aerostat systems for the purpose of border security and surveillance. The US government has increased their defense budget which is also expected to augment the growth of aerostats systems market in this region.Asia Pacific is expected to be the fast growing market for aerostat systems in terms of revenue as the developing economies in this region such as China and India have increased their defense budget. These countries widely use aerostat systems in their military sector which is expected to grow the market of aerostat systems in this region.
