Global and Regional Supersonic and Hypersonic Aircraft Market Report 2022: A $5.4 Billion Industry by 2032 - Growing Demand for Multirole Capable High-Speed Platforms


Dublin, Jan. 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Supersonic and Hypersonic Aircraft Market - A Global and Regional Analysis: Focus on Application, Subsystem, Speed Regime, and Country - Analysis and Forecast, 2022-2032" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global supersonic and hypersonic aircraft market was valued at $4,137.3 million in 2021, and it is expected to reach $5,400.4 million by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 2.73% during the forecast period 2022-2032.

The manufacturers of supersonic and hypersonic aircraft are witnessing a high demand from the defense industry as well as is expected to enter the commercial market by 2025 at the earliest. The ecosystem of the supersonic and hypersonic aircraft manufacturing market comprises aircraft manufacturers, subsystem manufacturers, and end users.

High Mach propulsion, unmanned systems, and efficient turbine-based engines have reached advanced development stages in the past decade. The growth and innovations were mostly driven by the requirements of defense arms of the involved nations. However, toward the end of the last decade, several startups and emerging players have entered the highly competitive market, intending to bring both hypersonic and supersonic platforms for both commercial and military end users.

The growth in private players is attributed in part to the proliferation of key design and testing methods in the emerging market, much like the sudden abundance of players in the launch vehicle market since the introduction of SpaceX. Both government agencies and established defense manufacturers are hoping to de-risk development costs and scale innovations in this market by supporting these emerging players throughout their development stages.

For instance, in July 2022, Northrop Grumman and Boom Supersonic signed a partnership agreement to develop military variants of the Overture Aircraft with special mission capabilities, which accelerated the adoption of the Boom Overture by prime market players in defense

The increasing number of emerging players in the supersonic and hypersonic aircraft market developing platforms for passenger flights, sub-orbital cargo flights, and LEO-based services, in addition to defense applications, has placed a high demand for the production of supersonic and hypersonic aircraft during the forecast period.

Furthermore, the increasing number of modernization programs to replace aging 4th generation fighters with newer platforms has contributed to the increasing demand for these aircraft by military end users.

Market Segmentation

Based on speed regime, the global supersonic and hypersonic aircraft market is expected to be dominated by the demand for supersonic aircraft during the forecast period. This is due to the long development timelines, subsystem integration challenges, and costs of development associated with the adoption of hypersonic aircraft. Since supersonic aircraft have an operational history in commercial as well as military aviation, the growth of such platforms is expected to be higher.

Based on application, the global supersonic and hypersonic aircraft market is expected to be dominated by demand from defense agencies during the forecast period. The adoption for the military application of supersonic and hypersonic aircraft is higher and is led by modernization programs to replace old fighters as well as the development of new hypersonic capabilities by defense forces.

Based on subsystem, the global supersonic and hypersonic aircraft market will witness the highest demand for the airframe subsystem, followed closely by the propulsion subsystem. Both subsystems are critical for supersonic and hypersonic flight, and manufacturers are adopting methods to increase innovations in both production and performance of these major subsystems.
