Industry Overview

The Global Rocket and Missile Market growth are expected to register a 6% CAGR during the forecast period. It is anticipated to reach a market size of USD 80.5 billion by 2030 from USD 60 billion in 2021. The increased adoption of rockets and missiles globally due to uncertain geopolitical conditions and the modern nature of warfare will accelerate the market development of the rocket and missile industry. Rockets and missiles are used to destroy enemy helicopters, planes, tanks, incoming missiles or rockets, ships, armored vehicles, submarines, and artillery.  The market is additionally influenced by the continuous developments in the Surface-to-Surface (SSM), Surface-to-Air (SAM), Air-to-Surface (ASM), Air-to-Air (AAM), and Subsea-to-Surface (SSM) missiles as a result of breakthroughs in warfare technologies for reducing battlefield time. 

Rocket and Missile Market Highlights

Market Segmentation
Insight by Speed

Based on speed, the global rocket and missile market is segmented into Subsonic, Supersonic, and Hypersonic. The hypersonic segment is anticipated to have a high CAGR during the forecast period. A propulsion system is included in hypersonic rockets and missiles so they can travel at speeds of Mach 5 or greater, which is five times the speed of sound and is aerodynamic. Thus, hypersonic precision-guided weapons are challenging to block owing to their high speed. Many countries are developing and adopting hypersonic missile systems, thus creating market opportunities for industry players to develop hypersonic missile systems.

Insight by Propulsion Type

Based on Propulsion Type, the global rocket and missile market is segregated into Solid, Liquid, Hybrid, Scramjet, Turbojet, and Ramjet. Solid propulsion will be noticed to hold the largest market share in the global market during the forecast period owing to rising demand for cruise missiles, mounting use of solid fuel in ballistic systems, the surge in space programs, and increased defense budgets, which will drive the market growth. The aluminum powder used in making solid fuel is deployed in solid propulsion. This solid fuel can generate a substantial amount of thrust, thereby driving market growth.

Insight by Launch Mode

Based on Launch mode, the global rocket and missile market is classified into Surface to Surface, Surface to Air, Air to Air, Air to Surface, and Subsea to Surface. Surface to Surface is expected to hold the highest share in the global rocket and defense industry. The integration of modern digital technology in defense and military, rising demand for unmanned vehicles, and active technological phylogenies are some of the factors that drive market growth.

Insight by Product

Based on Product, the global rocket and missile market is categorized into Cruise Missiles, Ballistic Missiles, Rockets, and Torpedoes. Short-range ballistic missiles (SRBMs), medium-range ballistic missiles (MRBMs), intermediate-range ballistic missiles (IRBMs), and intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) are the four main categories of ballistic missiles. Ballistic missiles are expected to have significant growth during the forecast period. Only during their initial (boost) flight phase, do ballistic missiles use rocket power; thereafter, they follow an arcing trajectory to their target. Ballistic warheads travel at speeds several times faster than sound as they are pulled by gravity.
