Global Fast Attack Craft Market is valued at approximately USD 4.5 billion in 2021 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 7.2% over the forecast period 2022-2029. Fast attack craft is a small, high speed warship carrying weapons with cruise missiles, rockets, anti-ship missiles, and guns. The main advantage of fast attack craft over other types of warships is their low cost. The Fast Attack Craft market is expanding because of factors such as increasing development of ship-based missile systems and growing maritime security among various countries.

FAC is very effective when combined with modern, high-tech warfare systems like the virtual barrier, underwater acoustic missiles, multi-static antisubmarine, and integrated protection systems. Its prevalence has progressively increased during the last few decades. According to Statista, in 2021, The global revenue of the hypersonic technology market was approximately USD 5.7 billion in 2016, and expected to increase to nearly USD 13 billion in 2031. Furthermore, in 2020, the US hypersonic tech market accounts for nearly 53% of the global market. Another important component driving space increase is maritime security. In the aerospace and defense manufacturing industry, with a revenue of around USD 67 billion , Lockheed Martin surpassed all competitors, including its biggest rivals like Raytheon, Boeing, and Airbus. In addition, in Jan 2023 Lockheed Martin announced the successful first flight of the F-16 Block 70 at its Greenville, South Carolina site. Total flight time was approximately 50 minutes and included airworthiness checks, such as engine, flight control, and fuel system, as well as basic aircraft handling. However, the high cost of Fast Attack Craft stifles market growth throughout the forecast period of 2022-2029.

The key regions considered for the Global Fast Attack Craft Market study include Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Rest of the World.
