SATCOM On The Move Market Growth, Trends and Report Highlights

According to a new report, published by KBV research, The Global SATCOM On The Move Market size is expected to reach USD 96.44 billion by 2032, rising at a market growth of 13.9% CAGR during the forecast period.

Satellite communications on the move (often abbreviated SATCOM On The Move, or SOTM) refers to systems where a moving platform (land vehicle, ship, aircraft, or other mobile node) maintains a stable link with one or more satellites through antennas and tracking systems, enabling data, voice, or video transfer while in motion. In military, government, and increasingly commercial settings, SOTM is essential to support operations in remote, contested, or infrastructure-poor environments.

The Land market dominated the Global SATCOM On The Move Market by Platform in 2024, and would continue to be a dominant market till 2032; thereby, achieving a market value of $42,484.5 million by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 13.5 % during the forecast period. The land segment garnered 45% revenue share in the SATCOM On The Move Market in 2024.  This dominance is attributed to the widespread use of mobile ground-based platforms across military, government, emergency services, and commercial sectors. Armored vehicles, command and control trucks, mobile headquarters, and tactical units rely on high-bandwidth satellite links to maintain real-time communications while in motion, even in remote or hostile areas.

The Ku-band market dominated the Global SATCOM On The Move Market by Frequency Band in 2024, and would continue to be a dominant market till 2032; thereby, achieving a market value of $31,030.8 million by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 13.1 % during the forecast period. The Ku-band segment acquired 34% revenue share in the SATCOM On The Move Market in 2024.  Its dominance is attributed to its balance between bandwidth availability, cost efficiency, and compatibility with a wide array of platforms. Ku-band frequencies are widely used for mobile satellite terminals due to their global coverage and mature ecosystem of geostationary satellites.

The Defense & Military market dominated the Global SATCOM On The Move Market by End Use in 2024, and would continue to be a dominant market till 2032; thereby, achieving a market value of $41,938.8 million by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 13.3 % during the forecast period. The defense & military segment garnered 45% revenue share in the SATCOM On the Move Market in 2024.  Armed forces across the globe—particularly in the U.S., Europe, China, India, and the Middle East—rely heavily on secure, high-throughput mobile connectivity for command and control, surveillance, and battlefield coordination. SOTM enables real-time communication for vehicles, aircraft, naval fleets, and unmanned systems even in denied or remote areas.
