Maritime Missile Launch System Market Outlook, 2030
The global maritime missile launch system market size was valued at $280.7 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $458.7 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.8% Development of advanced maritime missile launch technologies has become critical, owing to exponential rise in illegal entry of submarines in restricted international waters. The need for maritime missile launch systems for checking illegal entry of submarines and ships is on the rise, owing to rise in conflicts between different nations worldwide. Maritime missile launch systems are becoming a critical element of security and are utilized in countering potential sea-based attacks. Several nations around the world have launched and implemented policies related to modernizing their naval forces.
There has been a dramatic rise in adoption of maritime missile launch systems for detection and destruction of ships and submarines that try to illegally enter restricted water zones across the globe. Lack of reliable security systems and modernization initiatives result into a tremendous rise in instances related to security breach at naval bases. Rise in demand for detection and destruction of illegal ships and submarines has become a key factor to ensure overall national security, which fuels the market growth.

By System
Vertical Launching System is projected as the most lucrative segments
Rise In Number Of Territorial Conflicts Throughout The World
Six countries lay overlapping rights to the South and East China Seas, which is an area that is abundant in natural gas and hydrocarbons, and via which trillions of dollars of international trade flow happen annually. As China enlarges its naval dominance and constructs military bases on man-made islands, it has been met by increasing forcefulness from other regional claimants such as Japan, Vietnam, and the Philippines.
Frequent standoffs in the disputed area happen in the area ranging from the Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands on eastern edge of China to the long stretch of archipelagos in the South China Sea that encompass hundreds of islands. U.S. has also built up its military activities and maritime presence in the seas, indicating its raised role in clashes, which, if not handled properly, might turn part of Asia’s naval regions from flourishing trade channels into grounds of continuous conflicts. Rise in conflicts across different parts of the world to gain dominance in commercial or defense arenas is expected to drive growth of the global maritime missile launch system market during the forecast period.
By Mode
On-Surface is projected as the most lucrative segments
Naval Modernization Programs
As maritime security is one of the most critical defense units, naval modernization initiatives can be witnessed throughout the world. Naval modernization program includes a wide range of ships, airplane, and missile procurement plans, in addition to enhancements in upkeep and logistics, personnel education, and training.
Navy modernization initiatives in China are aimed at increasing competencies for handling any unfortunate set of events or for achieving a greater degree of control over China’s near-seas region, protecting China’s commercial sea lines of communication (SLOCs), principally those connecting China to the Persian Gulf; for challenging impact of the U.S. in the Western Pacific; and for asserting position of China as a major world power.
In June 2021, the U.S. Navy publicized a long-duration Navy ship-building document that presents U.S. government’s evolving replacement to 355-ship force-level objective. Their planned 2022 financial year budget seeks purchase of 8 new vessels, including one Constellation (FFG-62) class frigate; one Arleigh Burke (DDG-51) class destroyer; and 2 Virginia-class attack submarines (SSNs). Rise in modernization programs in one of the largest navies in the world is expected to propel growth of the global maritime missile launch system market during the forecast period.
High Cost Of Maritime Missile Launch Systems
High costs associated with missile launch systems leads to adoption of such systems only by countries that have a high budget spending. In past years, world has witnessed closure of projects involving missile launch systems that incurred high costs.
For instance, in the 1970s, the U.S. Army successfully developed and deployed the Safeguard Program- a U.S. Army’s anti-ballistic missile system in the North Dakota region at a price of $23 billion, excluding cost of developing nuclear missiles. It was shut in just months and the Department of Defense shut it down as it was too costly to operate, and did not contribute much to ensure U.S. security. Hence, costs continues to play a vital role in success or failure of missile defense programs globally, which is expected to limit growth of the global maritime missile launch system market during the forecast period.
By Launch Type
Cold Launch is projected as the most lucrative segments
Rise In Demand For Reliable And Efficient Vertical Launch Maritime Missile Launch Systems
Vertical missile launching systems have changed naval warfare for past 30 years by giving an ever-growing launch ability to retaliate to a variety of theater-based threats. These systems have altered the way all naval forces think regarding deep-water-based missile launch systems, owing to their unmatched performance and adaptability. Vertical missile firing system has become a reliable defense system of fleets across the globe due to its ability to respond to various aerial, surface, and subsurface threats at the same time. Owing to high efficiency and reliability, use of vertical missile launching systems is expected to grow considerably in the future.
Recent advancements in ballistic missile defense technology have given the vertical launching system of the U.S. Navy a new and enlarged duty. With consistent fruitful intercepts of complex targets, the U.S.-made Aegis Weapon System that comprises VLS, a weapon control system, a radar, and different classes of missiles, has reformulated its naval strategy.
Many next-generation Aegis-armed vessels are being manufactured or modified with ballistic missile defense (BMD) capability, in addition to performing conventional navy-specific roles of air, surface, and subsurface defense. The Aegis BMD ability has proven quite successful and the U.S. Navy has adopted a gradual adaptive approach to BMD. These factors prove benefits of vertical launching systems, which is expected to propel growth of the global maritime missile launch system market during the forecast period.
