Market Outlook

According to this report, the Saudi Arabia defence market is projected to further grow at a CAGR of 3.90% between 2024 and 2032. Aided by increasing demand for advanced military equipment and the growing focus on strengthening national security, the market is expected to significantly grow by 2032.

Saudi Arabia's defence sector is crucial for ensuring national security, safeguarding territorial integrity, and maintaining regional stability. The sector encompasses a wide range of activities, including the procurement of military equipment, research and development of defence technologies, and the training and maintenance of armed forces. The growing geopolitical tensions and security threats in the Middle East have heightened the importance of a robust defence system in Saudi Arabia.

The increasing demand for advanced military equipment is driving the Saudi Arabia defence market growth. As the country seeks to modernise its armed forces and enhance its defence capabilities, there is a significant focus on procuring state-of-the-art weaponry, surveillance systems, and defence technologies. This trend is further fuelled by the rising defence budget, which enables substantial investments in modernising the military infrastructure.

Moreover, the growing focus on strengthening national security is contributing significantly to the market growth. The Saudi government is investing heavily in defence to counter potential threats from regional conflicts, terrorism, and other security challenges. These investments are aimed at enhancing the operational readiness and combat capabilities of the Saudi armed forces.

The expanding applications of defence technologies in various sectors also play a significant role in propelling the market. In the aerospace sector, advanced defence systems are used for surveillance, reconnaissance, and air defence. The maritime sector utilises defence technologies for naval warfare, coastal surveillance, and securing maritime borders. Additionally, the land-based defence sector employs advanced military equipment for ground operations, logistics support, and training, consequently driving up the Saudi Arabia defence market share.

The growing emphasis on domestic defence production and technology transfer is another driving factor for the market. The Saudi government is focused on achieving self-reliance in defence production through initiatives such as Vision 2030, which aims to localise 50% of military spending by 2030. This emphasis on domestic production is expected to boost the development of the local defence industry and drive market growth.

The market is witnessing diverse applications across various sectors, further bolstering its growth. In the aerospace sector, advanced defence systems are essential for surveillance, reconnaissance, and air defence. The growing focus on enhancing air combat capabilities and securing airspace is driving the demand for advanced fighter jets, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and air defence systems.

As per the Saudi Arabia defence market analysis, in the maritime sector, defence technologies are crucial for naval warfare, coastal surveillance, and securing maritime borders. The increasing emphasis on securing critical maritime routes and protecting offshore assets is driving the demand for advanced naval vessels, submarines, and maritime surveillance systems.

The land-based defence sector also benefits significantly from advanced military equipment. Modern tanks, armoured vehicles, artillery systems, and infantry equipment are essential for ground operations and combat support. The growing focus on enhancing ground combat capabilities and ensuring the operational readiness of land forces is driving the adoption of advanced military equipment in this sector.

Additionally, defence technologies are used in the cyber defence sector to protect critical infrastructure and national assets from cyber threats. The increasing frequency and sophistication of cyber-attacks are driving the demand for advanced cybersecurity solutions and systems to ensure the integrity and security of defence networks.
