An aerostat system is a low-level airborne ground supervision system that lifts using a buoyant gas, lighter than air. It is widely used as a tactical airborne platform for radar systems, scientific equipment, and camera and communication equipment. It finds extensive applications in urban drone tracking operations to protect high-value assets in the United States.

The market is primarily driven by the increasing investments in the defense budget and military infrastructure in the United States. For instance, Bravura Information Technology Systems, Inc. recently signed a contract worth US$ 305.7 with the US army to support the maintenance and sustainment cost of Persistent Surveillance Systems-Tethered Aerostat (PSS-T). Furthermore, leading manufacturers are collaborating with telecommunication service providers to improve the telecommunication network quality, which is positively influencing the market growth. For instance, Altaeros launched the world’s first aerial cell tower SuperTower ST200 to enhance 4G LTE networks in the region. However, the sudden outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and the imposition of lockdown in several countries have disrupted operations at the production units of aerostat systems in the country. The market is anticipated to regain growth once the government introduces relaxations in lockdown.
