Self-Guided Torpedo Market - Trends Forecast Till 2028

Market Overview

The global Self-Guided Torpedo market size is expected to growth from USD 1134.6 million in 2020 to USD 1365.6 million by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.7% during 2021-2028.

Torpedo is the most preferred lethal underwater weapons for naval platforms such as submarines, surface vessels, aircraft, and helicopters. A modern torpedo contains intricate devices to control its depth and direction according to a pre-set plan or in response to signals received from an outside source, as well as a device that detonates the explosive-filled warhead when it strikes its target or comes close to it.

Increase in number of territorial conflicts throughout the world and rise in naval modernization programs drive the growth of the global self-guided torpedo market. However, increase in incorporation of anti-torpedo defense systems in combat vessels are some of the factors that have supported long-term expansion for Self-Guided Torpedo Market.

The rapid spread of COVID-19 had a significant impact on the global self-guided torpedo market in 2020, owing to the decline in financial growth across the world. COVID-19 pandemic led to several challenges for the self-guided torpedo industry such as disruption in the supply chain of raw materials, logistics challenges, and others. On the other hand, the self-guided torpedo equipment manufacturers had to reduce expansion and R&D investments to withstand the decline in revenue and operating performance of the defence industry.

Regional Analysis

Asia-Pacific accounted for the largest share in 2020, contributing to nearly one-third of the total share, and is estimated to maintain its dominance in terms of revenue. However, North America is expected to portray the fastest CAGR of 7.4% during the forecast period.
