They are an additional tool to help the search engines when they crawl a site. There is no requirement for any sitemap and your pages will get indexed without them if you pay close attention to navigation within your site.

Hi,
In my own experiences, sitemap submission would not guarantee for indexing purpose and having a well-structured site navigation system with your targeted keyword on points would be more helpful for not only indexing but also ranking purpose.
all the best,

Helps speed indexing. If you can get more pages indexed it may also help ranking (since you have more pages in the search engine index that can rank for terms)
