Dublin, Jan. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Reusable Rocket Market Report 2026” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The global reusable rocket market is experiencing a notable growth trajectory, expanding from $3.3 billion in 2025 to an expected $6.94 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 16%. This surge is largely driven by the successful implementation of vertical takeoff and landing technology, a rise in commercial satellite demand, and governmental investments in space programs. Furthermore, cost reductions per launch due to rocket reusability contribute to the market expansion.
Geographically, North America maintains its position as a major hub in 2025, with Asia-Pacific poised for rapid growth.
Looking forward, the market is set to accelerate thanks to advances in liquid and solid-fueled reusable rockets, growing space tourism efforts, and international launch service collaborations. The demand for low-cost satellite constellations and the shift towards medium and heavy payload vehicles are significant drivers. Additionally, responsive and on-demand launches for defense missions are gaining traction, supported by an expanding global spaceport infrastructure.
Satellite launch numbers are rising, fueled by the pursuit of global internet coverage through vast satellite constellations. Reusable rockets, by cutting down costs per launch and fortifying reliability, are pivotal in this escalation. In 2024, the Space Foundation noted a record high of 223 launch attempts, with an evident uptick in commercial launches, enhancing the reusable rocket market landscape significantly.
Industry leaders such as Rocket Lab Corporation are making strides in infrastructure development to boost launch frequency and efficiency. Their recent unveiling of Launch Complex 3 at Virginia’s Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport illustrates a focus on accommodating medium-lift missions, notably for the reusable Neutron rocket, anticipated to debut in late 2025. This strategic development enhances the competitive edge in medium-lift launch capabilities.
The competitive landscape is dynamic, marked by significant mergers like the $400 million deal between Innovative Rocket Technologies and BPGC Acquisition Corp. This partnership aims to expedite the evolution of next-gen reusable technologies, fortifying launch efficiency and reducing costs.
Key players in the market include SpaceX, Blue Origin, Rocket Lab, and new entrants like iRocket, each contributing to innovations and advancements in reusable rocket technologies. The industry is also adapting to global trade and tariff challenges, which are affecting production costs and encouraging regional supply chain innovations. These dynamics could reshape how companies operate, favoring more localized and integrated manufacturing approaches.
