What emerging drivers are expected to shape the future of the solid rocket motors market?
The increasing demand for defense systems is expected to propel the growth of the solid rocket motors market going forward. Defense systems refer to integrated technologies, equipment, and strategies to protect a nation or organization from threats such as military attacks, cyber intrusions, or missile strikes. The increasing demand for solid rocket motors in defense systems is primarily due to the rising need for advanced surveillance, as modern defense strategies rely heavily on real-time intelligence, monitoring, and situational awareness to ensure national security and military effectiveness. Solid rocket motors are integral to defense systems, offering high thrust, reliability, and versatility, enabling advanced missile technology for precise and rapid deployment in various combat scenarios. For instance, in December 2023, according to the UK Parliament's House of Commons Library, a UK-based government administration, in 2022, the UK secured defense contracts totaling £12.0 billion (approximately USD 15.0 billion) in real terms, marking an increase of £4.6 billion (approximately USD 5.8 billion) compared to the previous year. Therefore, the increasing demand for defense systems is driving the growth of the solid rocket motors market.

What are the top market trends driving innovation in the solid rocket motors industry?
Major companies operating in the solid rocket motors market are focusing on developing advanced propulsion systems with enhanced performance to support next-generation defense and space missions. Advanced propulsion systems refer to next-generation technologies designed to improve rocket engine thrust, efficiency, and structural performance. These systems help solid rocket motors by increasing payload capacity, reducing weight with composite materials, and enhancing reliability for defense and space applications. For instance, in March 2025, L3Harris Technologies Inc., a US-based defense contact company, introduced its advanced eSR-19 solid rocket motor with a lighter filament-wound composite case to enhance performance. During the missile defense agency's stellar banshee test, the motor powered the first and second stages of an air-launched medium-range ballistic Missile (MRBM). Launched from a C-17 aircraft, the USS Pinckney tracked the missile using an upgraded Standard Missile 6 system. This marked L3Harris' 39th launch in support of U.S. missile defense efforts. The development reflects a growing industry focus on next-generation propulsion systems to address evolving defense and space mission requirements.
