Summary

The South Korea electronic warfare market size reached USD 365.92 Million in?2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 526.25 Million by?2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.12% during?2025-2033. The market is driven by evolving geopolitical tensions, a heightened need for advanced surveillance and self-protection capabilities, and continuous military modernization efforts. Rapid technological advancements, particularly in AI and signal processing, also propel the South Korea electronic warfare market share.

South Korea Electronic Warfare Market Trends:
Integration of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
A significant trend in the South Korea electronic warfare market is the increasing integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) into EW systems. These advanced algorithms enable faster and more efficient decision-making by facilitating real-time threat analysis, signal identification, and adaptive jamming techniques. AI-driven EW systems can learn from evolving electronic threats, allowing for more precise and rapid responses in complex electromagnetic environments. This technological advancement is crucial for maintaining a competitive edge and enhancing situational awareness, thereby contributing significantly to the South Korea electronic warfare market growth. For instance, in January 2025, South Korea's LIG Nex1 signed a USD 10.5M deal with DRATRI to develop next-generation mobile ad hoc network (MANET) systems for the Republic of Korea Army (RoKA). The systems will equip drones, troops, and combat vehicles, supporting uncrewed operations. The project aligns with RoKA’s Army Tiger 4.0 modernization program, transforming soldiers into sensor nodes in an AI-driven network. Completion is expected by 2027, reinforcing South Korea's push for advanced, hyperconnected battlefield communications amid evolving defense strategies.
Focus on Self-Protection and Counter-Drone Capabilities
The escalating sophistication of electronic warfare threats, including the proliferation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and advanced cyber-physical attacks, is driving a strong focus on self-protection and counter-drone capabilities within the South Korean military. Modern EW systems are increasingly designed to detect, counter, and neutralize these emerging threats, ensuring the survivability of platforms and personnel. This involves investments in sophisticated electronic countermeasure pods, radar jamming systems, and signal spoofing technologies. The imperative to safeguard critical assets against diverse electronic attacks is a key factor driving the South Korea electronic warfare market growth. For instance, the recent partnership between Northrop Grumman and LIG Nex1 aims to develop airborne electronic warfare (EW) and targeting systems for South Korea. The collaboration includes advanced EW technologies like the ALQ-257 system and LITENING targeting pod, which enhance situational awareness, survivability, and precision targeting. This partnership leverages Northrop Grumman's global defense expertise and supports the Republic of Korea’s military modernization efforts, strengthening domestic EW capabilities through cutting-edge, mission-focused solutions for F-16s and other platforms.
