The advanced array antennas can support tracking and maintaining satellite links even when the vehicles are moving. There is a surging demand for advanced technologies to meet the ever-changing battlefield requirements. For instance, in October 2023, Keysight Technologies, Inc. launched the Phased Array Antenna Control and Calibration solution that facilitates satellite designers fabricating active electronically scanned arrays specifically for satellite communications applications to test their designs in time of validation. The solution increases signal-pointing accuracy by enhancing the frequency of active antenna array components. In 2019, SatixFy introduced a silicon-based electronically steered multi-beam array antenna. In 2021, L3Harris manufactured a multi-band, multi-mission phased array ground antenna system, which was integrated with the Space Force's Satellite Communication Network system to establish simultaneous satellite contacts. The proliferation of advanced technologies regarding meeting modern warfare situations is boosting the application of electronically steered array antennas in military equipment. Thus, the integration of electronically steered array antennas in military equipment positively fuels the military antenna market growth.

Growing adoption of UAVs, SATCOM communication, and expansion of naval and aircraft fleets are a few factors expected to fuel the military antenna market growth during the forecast period. Further, increasing government investments and product development activities are a few factors that have supported the military antenna market growth.

An aperture antenna has an opening at the end that transmits or receives electromagnetic waves. The size of this antenna is determined by the signal strength emitted in a single direction. The wider aperture has a high gain, whereas the narrower aperture has a low gain. These antennas are used in electronic warfare, communication, and surveillance. Factors such as new product launches and government spending are driving the demand for military antenna market. For instance, in 2022, Viasat announced the launch of its advanced class of large-aperture antennas for space-to-ground communications. In addition, the US space force is planning to invest US$ 2.5 billion to develop a protected tactical SATCOM and a Protected Tactical Enterprise Service ground system. Such initiatives are expected to create demand for aperture antennas in the coming years.
