The composite materials market in the global defense industry is expected to reach $670 million by 2023

Trends, opportunities and forecast for composites in the global defense industry to 2023 by market segments (military aircraft, naval systems, land vehicle, body armor, arms and ammunition and military hard wall shelter), by reinforcement (carbon composites, glass composites, aramid composites and ceramic matrix composites), by resin (thermoset composites, thermoplastic composites and ceramic matrix composites), and by region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World)

According to a new market report published by Lucintel, the future of the composite materials in the global defense industry looks good with opportunities in military aircraft, naval systems, land vehicle, body armor, arms & ammunition, and military hard wall shelter. The composite materials market in the global defense industry is expected to reach an estimated $670 million by 2023 and is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 1.8% from 2018 to 2023. Some of the applications of composites in the defense industry are helicopter rotor blade, ballistic protection plates, control surface, radome, doors, and fuselage. The major growth drivers for this market are increasing use of lightweight and high-performance materials in defense programs and growing need for lightweight materials in ballistic protection solutions.
