Oman’s defense budget demonstrated a CAGR of 1.9% over the period 2022-2026, rising from $7.62 billion to $8.22 billion in 2026. Defense expenditure is anticipated to increase from $8.77 billion in 2027 to $11.78 billion in 2031, reflecting a CAGR of 7.7%. This increase is expected to be driven by instability in the Middle East and the aftershocks of the US/Israel-Iran war.
Following Iran’s attacks on Oman’s critical economic infrastructure-including the ports of Duqm and Salalah-and damage to oil storage infrastructure, the country is anticipated to boost investment in strengthening its air defense capabilities. As such, Oman’s defense acquisition expenditure, valued at $1.7 billion in 2026 and which demonstrated a CAGR of just 1.3% over the historic period, is projected to grow at a CAGR of 13.6%, rising from $1.8 billion in 2027 to $3.0 billion in 2031.
