Global Sonar Systems Market

According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled "Sonar Systems Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2022-2027," the global sonar systems market reached a value of US$ 4.7 Billion in 2021. Sound navigation and ranging (SONAR) systems refer to devices that generally comprise a transducer, display, receiver and transmitter. They utilize acoustic noise waves that help in exploring and mapping the ocean. They function by sending an impulse sound from the transmitter, upon which an echo is generated that returns to the transducer, usually amplified by the receiver and the data are reflected over the display. As a result, it is widely adopted for marine and defense applications to create nautical charts, detect and determine the direction and distance of submerged objects and locate underwater hazards.  

We are regularly tracking the direct effect of COVID-19 on the market, along with the indirect influence of associated industries. These observations will be integrated into the report.

Global Sonar Systems Market Trends:

The global market is primarily driven by significant growth in the defense sector. Along with this, the rising incidences of border threats and geopolitical conflicts among various countries are providing a boost to the demand for sonar systems. Since sound waves travel farther than radar and light, there has been a considerable rise in the utilization of sonar systems for exploration and communication purposes across the globe. Moreover, the increasing utilization of sonar systems for research and development (R&D) activities conducted by key players for seabed mapping are creating a positive market outlook. Additionally, continual technological advancements, such as the introduction of synthetic aperture sonar systems that provide high-quality image resolution, are further strengthening the market. Other factors, including the rising expenditure to upgrade the overall defense infrastructure, continuous product innovations and the increasing demand for unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) for commercial oil and gas exploration activities, are also contributing to the market. On account of the aforementioned factors, the market is anticipated to reach a value of US$ 5.2 Billion by 2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 1.9% during 2022-2027.
