Airborne SATCOM Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034
Market Report I 2025-07-28 I 176 Pages I EMR Inc.
The global airborne SATCOM market stood at a value of around USD 5.00 Billion in 2024. The market is further expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.80% in the forecast period of 2025-2034 to attain a value of nearly USD 12.73 Billion by 2034.
The Government and Defence Sector to Account for a Significant Market Share of the Global Airborne SATCOM Industry
Based on application, the government and defence segment is predicted to hold a significant market share in the airborne SATCOM industry. The segment growth can be attributed to the increased expenditure by the governments across the globe in the improvement of the defence sector.
In addition, the growing aircraft fleet as well as the increased demand for on-the-move technologies to aid in defence surveillance and reconnaissance activities are anticipated to aid the market. These factors are expected to contribute to the overall market growth in the forecast period.
North America to Occupy a Significant Market Share in the Global Airborne SATCOM Industry
North America is predicted to possess a significant share of the airborne SATCOM industry in the forecast period. The market growth in the region can be attributed to the heightened demand for airborne SATCOM solutions in defence and commercial applications. In addition, the rising expenditure by the government in the development of military infrastructure, along with the presence of the leading market players in the region, is predicted to further propel the market growth. Meanwhile, the Asia Pacific region is also projected to witness an increased demand for airborne SATCOM solutions, owing to an increased air passenger traffic in the commercial sector. This is estimated to aid the market growth in the forecast period.

Growing Passenger Traffic Worldwide and the Rapid Technological Advancements to Augment the Global Airborne SATCOM Industry
The growing preference of consumers for air transportation is leading to increased passenger traffic. This is propelling the major airline corporations to expand their commercial fleets to meet this rising demand, which, in turn, is aiding the airborne SATCOM industry growth. Major factors influencing this trend include the rising disposable incomes, rapid urbanisation, along with the benefits of convenience and reduced journey time offered by air travel. In addition, the rapid technological advancements to aid in the development of efficient SATCOM solutions are also predicted to propel the market growth in the coming years. For instance, in April 2021, Inmarsat, a leading vendor of mobile satellite communication services, along with Orbit Communication Systems Ltd., a provider of airborne communication solutions, announced that the Orbit GX46 multi-purpose terminal (MPT) has received approval to be used across Inmarsat's Global Xpress (GX) network. This lightweight terminal offers worldwide connectivity, supporting the military, government, and commercial users worldwide. Such developments are predicted to aid the market growth in the forecast period.
