SONAR System Market to Reach USD 3.76 Billion by 2029; Increasing Demand for Sonobuoy for Tactical Defense Operations will Aid the Market Growth

The SONAR system market size is predicted to reach USD 3.76 billion by 2029 and exhibit a CAGR of 7.96% during the forecast period. Fortune Business Insights^TM in its report titled “SONAR System Market Size, Share and Industry Analysis, Product Type (Hull-Mounted, Stern-Mounted, Sonobuoy, and DDS), By Application (Commercial and Defense), By Platform (Ship Type and Airborne), By Solution (Hardware (Transmitter, Receiver, Control Units, Displays, Sensors (Ultrasonic Diffuse Proximity Sensors, Ultrasonic Retro-Reflective Sensors, Ultrasonic Through-Beam Sensors, VME-ADC, and Others), and Others), and Software), By End-User (Line Fit and Retrofit), and Regional Forecast, 2022-2029”, observes that the market size stood at USD 2.09 billion in 2021 and USD 2.20 billion in 2022.

Russia–Ukraine War Impact

The main export destinations for crude oil, wheat, and corn are Russian and Ukrainian ports. The current conflict has halted cargo import and export by sea, resulting in slow growth in the marine sector. In response to NATO recommendations, several European countries have increased their defense budgets in 2022. NATO has advised countries to increase their defense spending to 2% of GDP. Officials in Poland, for example, have stated that the defense budget will be enhanced to 2% of GDP in 2022 and 3% of GDP in 2023. The increased defense spending is expected to boost naval vessel procurement, which will help the market to grow.

Aquaculture Farms are Increasing their Use of SONAR to Improve Productivity

A deep neural network is used in the SONAR system for fish monitoring. Demand for fish monitoring in aquaculture farms is expected to rise in response to the expansion of fish resources. The deep neural network SONAR is made up of a high-precision imaging SONAR and an underwater optical camera. The device enables nocturnal monitoring and contributes to the development of more efficient fish farming. As a result of the increased demand for the system in aquaculture farms, the SONAR system market growth will be evident.

Developing Advanced Technologies and Next-Generation SONAR is a Key Goal for Key Players

The SONAR system market share is fragmented as several companies are developing SONAR systems. Diver detection systems, dual-axis SONAR (DAS), surveillance network SONAR, and chirp technology are some of the most recent developments. The dominant factor responsible for these market players' dominance is a diverse product portfolio combined with R&D activity.
