 Which Key Growth Contributors Will Drive the Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) Core Network Software Market in the Next Decade?
 The growing defense and aerospace communication needs are expected to propel the growth of the non-terrestrial network (NTN) core network software market going forward. Defense and aerospace communication refers to advanced communication systems and technologies used to exchange critical information across military, aviation, and space operations, ensuring secure and reliable data transmission in mission-critical environments. The increase in defense and aerospace communication needs is due to rising requirements for fast, resilient, and secure connectivity to support military operations, national security, and space exploration activities. Non-terrestrial network (NTN) core network software supports defense and aerospace communication by enabling seamless, secure, and continuous connectivity among satellites, aircraft, naval vessels, and ground stations, particularly in remote or hard-to-reach locations. For instance, in May 2025, according to EveryCRSReport, a US-based government body, the Department of Defense (DoD) requested $21.1 billion for command, control, communications, computers, and intelligence (C4I) system procurement and research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E), including $989.2 million allocated to specific programs. Therefore, the growing defense and aerospace communication needs are driving the growth of the non-terrestrial network (NTN) core network software market.
