The Assessment of the Global SATCOM on the Move Market 2026 provides a strategic, qualitative assessment of the global market for satellite communications delivered to aircraft, ships, military platforms, emergency-response vehicles, trains, mobile command centres and other assets that require continuous connectivity while in motion. The report examines how SATCOM on the Move is evolving from a specialist terminal category into a broader mobility infrastructure market supporting passenger connectivity, fleet operations, tactical communications, public safety, remote enterprise activity and communications resilience.
The study covers aviation terminals, maritime stabilised antennas, electronically steered and flat-panel systems, vehicle-mounted terminals, portable field equipment, military SATCOM kits, modems, network-management platforms and managed mobility services. It assesses the market as an integrated systems ecosystem in which satellite capacity, antenna performance, certification, software, installation, cybersecurity and service operations must function together.
The report evaluates the growing importance of multi-orbit architectures. GEO, MEO and LEO networks offer different combinations of coverage, latency, capacity and resilience. Mobility users may increasingly rely on terminals and managed platforms capable of selecting or combining networks according to route, application, availability and service requirements. Multi-orbit capability is particularly relevant for aviation, maritime, government and defence customers that prioritise continuity over dependence on a single constellation.
