Passive Radar Market Analysis

The Passive Radar Market In North America Industry is expected to grow from USD 14.25 million in 2025 to USD 24.42 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 11.38% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

Armed forces, airports, and other high-value or high-risk entities largely drive demand for passive radar. These radars excel at detecting stealth aircraft and are designed with geometry-focused concealment. Without an active transmitter, the radar remains undetectable, thwarting any precise enemy attacks.

Despite their advantages, passive radars face significant operational and performance restrictions, making global adoption as a replacement for active radars unlikely. While adept at detecting stealth aircraft, passive radars may struggle with tracking and predicting future positions for countermeasures. The high computational power costs hinder the widespread commercial adoption of passive radars.

Nonetheless, the reduced pricing of passive radars compared to their active counterparts offers a glimmer of hope for adoption. This cost advantage appeals to budget-conscious organizations and governments. The lower operational and maintenance expenses also bolster the case for broader adoption across various sectors.
