Hypersonic Technologies Theme Analysis Report Overview

The increasing multi-polarity (and certainly the war in Ukraine) has driven intense investment by countries such as Russia, China, and the US in hypersonic technologies. These countries are all testing hypersonic technology, generating fears of escalating global competition for weaponry that has the potential to render current defenses inadequate. For instance, Russia’s use of hypersonic missiles in Ukraine has been confirmed, representing the first combat use of these weapons, and Ukraine has claimed the first successful interception of hypersonic missiles. This and the pace of development in China have raised concerns about the progress of the other nations’ programs.

The hypersonic technologies thematic intelligence report provides the key trends impacting the growth of the hypersonic technologies theme over the next 12 to 24 months. It also offers an analysis of M&A deals in this theme.

Hypersonic Technologies - Key Trends

The main trends shaping the hypersonic technology theme over the next 12 to 24 months are classified into three categories: technology trends, macroeconomic trends, and regulatory trends.

  • Technology trends: The increasing use of 3D printing, the development of new propulsion systems, and artificial intelligence among others are some of the technology trends impacting the hypersonic technologies theme.
  • Macroeconomic trends: The key macroeconomic trends explained in the report are the power competition between the US, China, and Russia, rising investment for hypersonic technologies, and the development of hypersonic weapons in the West among others.
  • Regulatory trends: The inclusion of hypersonic technology in the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR), the maturity of the Hypersonic program in the US, and the increase in military activity in the Arctic are part of the regulatory trends impacting the hypersonic technologies theme.

Hypersonic Technologies – Industry Analysis

Currently, the development and procurement of hypersonic missiles represent a relatively small portion of the missiles and missile defense market, and state investment dominates the field. The three major hypersonic developers (US, Russia, and China) dominate the market. In the next decade, the overall missiles market will be driven by multiple high-value procurement programs worldwide, including the AGM-181 Long Range Stand Off Weapon (LRSO), Next-Generation Interceptor (NGI), Ground-Based Strategic Deterrent (GBSD), and Patriot Advanced Capability 3 (PAC-3) by the US, Kh-95 and Kh-47M2 Khinzhal by Russia, Dong Feng-21 by China, and AGM-88 HARM by Saudi Arabia, among others. Several other nations, including Japan, Germany, India, and Brazil, have announced hypersonic missile development plans, but these are in the development stages.

Hypersonic Technologies – Value Chain

These are the key technologies to the development of hypersonic technology and will be critical in the coming years. As more countries join the hypersonic technology industry, there will be further demand increases. As this technology progresses through development, it will also require assistive technology such as space systems, launching capabilities, 3D printing, and AI. The major technological value chain components of hypersonics are testing systems, thermal technology, hypersonic engines, control systems, Warheads, and missile bodies.

Testing systems: It cover both the physical and virtual modeling and testing of proposed hypersonic aircraft and munitions. One of the foremost testing systems for the development of hypersonic aircraft and missiles is wind tunnels. There are relatively few hypersonic-capable wind tunnels in operation. In January 2022, China announced the construction of its JF-22 wind tunnel, developed by AVIC, which can simulate wind speeds of up to Mach 30. MHI offers the Hypersonic Wind Tunnel System, which can simulate the windspeeds of Mach 10. Israel Aerospace Industries has constructed the IAI Wind Tunnels Center with three wind tunnels: the Subsonic, the Trisonic, and the Hypersonic tunnels covering a velocity range from 0 to 12 Mach.

Business Intelligence & Marketing Manager, SAL Heavy Lift

“COVID-19 has caused significant interference to our business and the COVID-19 intelligence from GlobalData has helped us reach better decisions around strategy. These two highlights have helped enormously to understand the projections into the future concerning our business units, we also utilise the project database to source new projects for Liebherr-Werk to use as an additional source to pitch for new business.”

Market Analyst & Management, Liebherr-Werk

Your daily news has saved me a lot of time and keeps me up-to-date with what is happening in the market, I like that you almost always have a link to the source origin. We also use your market data in our Strategic Business Process to support our business decisions. By having everything in one place on the Intelligence Center it has saved me a lot of time versus looking on different sources, the alert function also helps with this.

Head of Key Accounts, Saab AB

Having used several other market research companies, I find that GlobalData manages to provide that ‘difficult-to-get’ market data that others can’t, as well as very diverse and complete consumer surveys.

Marketing Intelligence Manager, Portugal Foods

Our experience with GlobalData has been very good, from the platform itself to the people. I find that the analysts and the account team have a high level of customer focus and responsiveness and therefore I can always rely on. The platform is more holistic than other providers. It is convenient and almost like a one stop shop. The pricing suite is highly competitive and value for our organisation.

I like reports that inform new segments such as the analysis on generation Z, millennials, the impact of COVID 19 to our banking customers and their new channel habits. Secondly the specialist insight on affluent sector significantly increases our understanding about this group of customers. The combination of those give us depth and breadth of the evolving market.

I’m in the business of answering and helping people make decisions so with the intelligence center I can do that, effectively and efficiently. I can share quickly key insights that answer and satisfy our country stakeholders by giving them many quality studies and primary research about competitive landscape beyond the outlook of our bank. It helps me be seen as an advisory partner and that makes a big difference. A big benefit of our subscription is that no one holds the whole data and because it allows so many people, so many different parts of our organisation have access, it enables all teams to have the same level of knowledge and decision support.

Head of Customer Insight and Research, Standard Chartered

“I know that I can always rely on Globaldata’s work when I’m searching for the right consumer and market insights. I use Globaldata insights to understand the changing market & consumer landscape and help create better taste & wellbeing solutions for our customers in food, beverage and healthcare industries.

Globaldata has the right data and the reports are of very high quality compared to your competitors. Globaldata not only has overall market sizes & consumer insights on food & beverages but also provides insights at the ingredient & flavour level. That is key for B2B companies like Givaudan. This way we understand our customers’ business and also gain insight to our unique industry”

Head of Consumer Sensory Insights, Givaudan

GlobalData provides a great range of information and reports on various sectors that is highly relevant, timely, easy to access and utilise.  The reports and data dashboards help engagement with clients; they provide valuable industry and market insights that can enrich client conversations and can help in the shaping of value propositions. Moreover, using GlobalData products has helped increase my knowledge of the finance sector, the players within it, and the general threats and opportunities.

I find the consumer surveys that are carried out to be extremely beneficial and not something I have seen anywhere else. They provided an insightful view of why and which consumers take (or don’t) particular financial products. This can help shape conversations with clients to ensure they make the right strategic decisions for their business.

One of the challenges I have found is that data in the payments space is often piecemeal. With GD all of the data I need is in one place, but it also comes with additional market reports that provide useful extra context and information. Having the ability to set-up alerts on relevant movements in the industry, be it competitors or customers, and have them emailed directly to me, ensures I get early sight of industry activity and don’t have to search for news.
