Global 3D Radar Market Research Report: Information By Platform (Ground, Airborne and Marine), Frequency Band (C/S/X Band, E/F Band, L Band and Others), Range (Long Range, Medium Range and Short Range) and Region (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Rest of the World) - Forecast till 2027

Market Scenario

Global 3D Radar Market is projected to register a CAGR of 19.12% during the forecast period, 2020 to 2026. 3D radar is used for weather monitoring, surveillance, and security purposes, mainly in the defense sector. 3D radar offers three-dimensional views in terms of range, bearing, and elevation. A 3D radar is used to measure all three space coordinators in the radar system.  For weather monitoring, a narrow pencil beam is used. The elevation of the antenna changes after scanning each rotation. 3D radars can be used for various applications and can be customized according to the end-use requirements, owing to their wide range of antenna arrays. 3D radars also assist in the detection and classification of the target based on their size and speed. Hence, such benefits offered by 3D radars are expected to drive the growth of the global market.

Market Synopsis

Global 3D Radar Market is expected to register significant growth during the forecast period owing to factors such as increasing demand for modern warfare techniques and the growth in deployment of air & missile defense systems. Additionally, the growing adoption of 3D radars at airports to offer enhanced surveillance to pilots is also expected to drive the growth of the market. Furthermore, the growing adoption of 3D radars by the armed forces to offer enhanced target acquisition capabilities to soldiers is also expected to drive the growth of the market.

However, issues related to the vulnerability of fully automated 3D radar and the high cost of development might hamper the growth of the global market.
