Anti-Submarine Warfare Helicopter Market Size, Share and COVID-19 Impact Analysis, By Type (Helicopters and Maritime Patrol Helicopters), By System (Electronic Support Measures, Sensors, and Armament), By Application (Defence and Commercial), By End User (Air force, Navy, and Army) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Anti-submarine warfare helicopter is a particular class of aircraft. Growing terrorism activities and increased defence budget of the major developing nations are expected to drive the growth of the special mission aircraft during the forecast period.

The main role of anti-submarine warfare (ASW) helicopters is to protect the fleet from enemy submarines. These helicopters are fitted with sophisticated sensors and are armed with missiles and torpedoes to track and hunt down enemy boats.

Successful ASW operations typically involve a combination of sensor and weapon technologies, along with effective deployment strategies and sufficiently trained personnel. Typically, sophisticated sonar equipment is used for first detecting, then classifying, locating, and tracking a target submarine. Sensors are therefore a key element of ASWH.

Anti-submarine warfare helicopter is also driven by the growth in the number of facilities being aware of trespassing and securing surfaces. Obtaining worldwide accreditation from defence ministries has encouraged manufacturers to embrace cutting-edge technologies and equipment, focus on offering higher accuracy standards, and provide greater operational safety.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Anti-Submarine Warfare Helicopter Market

National and international transportation has been delayed as a result of the lockdown, which has had a substantial impact on the anti-submarine warfare supply chain around the world, widening the supply–demand mismatch. As a result, insufficient raw material supply is predicted to slow down the manufacturing rate of these systems, reducing market growth. However, the situation is projected to improve as governments around the world begin to relax regulations to allow businesses to resume operations. Additionally, manufacturing processes for anti-submarine warfare have considerably decreased as a result of COVID-19 effects. This is due to production halts and interrupted supply chains, which have impacted the market's global operations and revenue.

Analysis by Anti-Submarine Warfare Helicopters

The progressing R&D toward the improvement of cutting-edge oceanic advances is creating the possible interests in creating countermeasures, such as upgraded extended sonar frameworks and sonobuoys/sonobuoys that can distinguish secrecy submarines and other drenched antagonistic art. The global anti-submarine market is witnessing trends featuring automated marine frameworks and covert submarines. These rapid innovations and their increasing application are likely to propel the demand for anti-submarine warfare in the global market.

Regional Analysis

Due to the growing emergence of the aircraft manufacturing sector in the area, emerging economies in the Asia-Pacific, such as China, India and Japan, are significantly fuelling the growth of the aerospace industry, which is likely to push demand for anti-submarine helicopters over the forecast period. China and India are likely to be among the world's largest aviation markets during the forecast period.

North America accounts for the largest market shares in the anti-submarine warfare helicopter market owing to highest defence spending amongst all nations across the world, strong, superior and advanced aircraft to tackle and handle every situation across the world. North America was followed by Europe and Asia-Pacific as second and third largest market for special mission aircraft market. Asia Pacific is projected to have the fastest growth, owing to rapidly increasing defence spending by major economies in the region like Indian and China to tackle and protect its territories from the unrest and terrorist activities in the region and also increase their contribution in the global peacekeeping activities.
