Description

The global Pilotage Radar Detectors market size is predicted to grow from US$ 579 million in 2025 to US$ 975 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.8% from 2026 to 2032.

In 2025, the global annual new installations of pilotage radar detectors are projected to be approximately 126,000 units. The majority of these installations will come from the replacement of existing equipment on commercial vessels, upgrades to fishing vessel radar systems, and new installations on port and offshore engineering vessels. The mainstream price for a single unit is around US$4,700, primarily for small to medium-power X-band pilotage radar detectors. For high-end commercial vessels, specialized engineering vessels, and military/police support vessels, radar detection systems with higher power, longer detection range, multi-target tracking, and redundant interfaces can cost between US$8,000 and US$15,000 per unit. Overall, the gross profit margin for these products is approximately 25%–40%. In terms of typical usage: a small to medium-sized commercial vessel or fishing vessel usually has one pilotage radar detector; large commercial vessels, oil tankers, or container ships generally have two units (X-band + S-band redundancy); and port tugs, engineering vessels, and pilot boats typically have one to two units, creating a continuous and stable replacement market.

The growth of the pilotage radar detector market is supported, on the one hand, by the stable renewal of the global commercial and fishing vessel fleet, and the continuous raising of minimum requirements for radar configuration and performance by the IMO and national maritime safety regulations, making radar detectors a mandatory configuration. On the other hand, the development of offshore wind power, offshore engineering, and intelligent shipping is driving the demand for higher performance and more intelligent radar detectors. Regionally, Europe and Japan maintain technological and regulatory leadership in the high-end merchant and engineering vessel markets, North America has stable demand in the special vessel and intelligent navigation sectors, while China and Southeast Asia, with their vast fleets of fishing vessels and offshore engineering vessels, are the main sources of global shipment growth. In terms of cost and competition, RF components and algorithmic capabilities remain core barriers to entry, with price wars primarily concentrated in the low-to-medium end market. Leading manufacturers, however, continue to consolidate their market share in the pilotage radar detector market through system integration, certification systems, and long-term service agreements.
