Key Market Trends

The Air Force Segment Recorded the Highest Market Share in 2019

The Air Force segment is expected to experience the highest growth rate during the forecast period, owing to various ongoing procurement plans for replacing the aging combat aircraft and expanding fighter jet fleet. With the relaxation in Japan's strict arms export regulations, the Japanese Ministry of Defense (MoD) entered an agreement with the British government to develop, design, and procure a next-generation air-to-air missile. Moreover, to ensure the country's air dominance in the southwestern island chain, in December 2018, the country ordered 63 Lockheed Martin F-35A models, and, in August 2019, it ordered an additional 45 F-35B fighter aircraft. Similarly, in 2018, Japan received nine E-2D Advanced Hawkeye (AHE) Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) aircraft from the US. The country is also developing its own fighter jet codenamed as F-3. However, the high cost of military aircraft development may lead Japan to search for foreign partners, in order to collaborate on the project. Such developments are envisioned to contribute to the growth of the Air Force segment during the forecast period.

The Japanese Defense Market is Anticipated to Experience a Steady Growth During the forecast period

The defense budget of Japan for FY2020 is USD 48.8 billion. The country had also announced plans to spend around USD 242.7 billion on defense for the next five years. Additionally, the new National Defense Program Guidelines (NDPGs) and the associated Mid-term Defense Plan (MTDP) have also put a strong emphasis on three new defense domains in the country, namely, cyber, space, and electronic warfare (EW). In the defense budget of FY 2020, the Japanese government approved USD 459.2 million budget for space-related projects, which includes projects, like procurement of Space Situational Awareness (SSA) Satellite (Space-based Optical Telescope), enhancing resiliency of satellite communication system, etc. Similarly, the cyber-related budget was USD 240 million, which includes projects, like the procurement of Cyber Information Gathering System and designing of AI-enabled Systems to respond against cyber-attack. The government is also planning to develop Stand-off Electronic Warfare Aircraft at an estimated cost of USD 140 million and a Network Electronic Warfare System at an estimated cost of USD 93 million. Developments in such domains are expected to be a part of Japan's new multidimensional integrated defense force. Thus, such ongoing developments are expected to drive the Japanese defense market in the near future.
