Aerostat Systems Market – Market Overview

An aerostat is a platform which utilizes lighter than air gases such as hydrogen, helium and hot air gases. These gases helps the aerostat to produce lift with the same overall as air. Aerostats include powered airships and unpowered balloons. These balloons are tethered to the ground. The components of aerostat include light weight skin which comprises of helium gas to provide payload, buoyancy and ground station. Aerostat are used for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance by military forces and also in civilian observation.

Aerostat has wide range of applications in the commercial and military forces. The operating cost associated with aerostat is low when compared with unmanned aerial systems which are expensive and have limited endurance. Aerostat requires less crew for its operation and also the maintenance is low because it has less mechanical parts. The versatility of applications provided by aerostat is producing the demand for persistent ISR and also for the homeland security which is driving the market.

The vendors are facing technical difficulties which are driving up the costs and also resulting in the delays in the schedule. Also, there are operational hazards associated with aerostats during the lightning and high wind speed. So, the operating the aerostat in those condition has become one of the major threat.

The demand for aerostat systems is continuously increasing due to its wide range of applications, cost effectiveness, low operational costs, easy to deploy and low personnel expertise. There is a strong demand from military and homeland security for surveillance, intelligence and reconnaissance, which has led new investments such as Lockheed Martin received a contract for Persistent Threat Detection aerostat systems from US Army worth USD 142 million. The main purpose of this investment is to detect the improvised explosive devices and the system can provide round the clock surveillance for long range areas.

Aerostat Systems Market – Competitive Analysis
The aerospace and defense industry value chain has evolved, moving from a traditional approach, where OEMs were involved in handling end-to-end manufacturing, to that of a design and systems integrator. The value chain consists of research and development (R&D), design, manufacturing, assembly, sales, and aftermarket services delivered to end customers.

With increasing aerospace activities, aerospace OEMs are moving from vertically integrated manufacturing to design and systems integration, and the industry structure has changed to a tier-based system of suppliers. Today, the majority of work is outsourced to partners with proven competencies across these areas. These partners invest in R&D activities and other processes together, sharing risks and revenues, which indicates that a larger share of manufacturing and assembly activities is available with Tier 2 and Tier 3 suppliers.
