This Aerospace Support and Auxiliary Equipment market report provides a comprehensive analysis of the market’s characteristics, size, and growth, including segmentation, regional and country-level breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends, and strategies. It also tracks historical and forecasted market growth across various geographies.
The aerospace support and auxiliary equipment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $31.55 billion in 2024 to $33.39 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to global economic conditions, military expenditure, commercial aviation demand, space exploration.
The aerospace support and auxiliary equipment market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $40.07 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing air travel demand, environmental regulations, emerging markets, space commercialization, defense spending. Major trends in the forecast period include electrification and lightweighting, advanced materials, additive manufacturing, digitalization and connectivity, collaboration and partnerships.
The aerospace support and auxiliary equipment market is expected to experience significant growth due to the rising demand for air travel. Air travel encompasses the use of various flight-sustaining vehicles, including airplanes, jet aircraft, helicopters, and other aircraft capable of flight. It involves the process of boarding and disembarking from such aircraft for the purpose of traveling. This increased demand for air travel results in an upsurge in aircraft production and maintenance activities, leading to a greater need for air traffic control equipment, aircraft production equipment, safety gear, and associated products and services. For instance, in March 2023, a report released by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, a US government agency, revealed that in 2022, US airlines transported 194 million more passengers compared to the previous year, marking a substantial 30% year-on-year increase. Over the course of January to December 2022, US airlines served 853 million passengers (unadjusted), a significant jump from 658 million in 2021 and 388 million in 2020. This surge in air travel demand is a key driver behind the growth of the aerospace support and auxiliary equipment market.
The aerospace support and auxiliary equipment market is poised for substantial growth in the coming years, primarily fueled by the increasing demand for commercial aircraft. Commercial aircraft, designed for profitable passenger or cargo transportation, rely on essential aerospace support and auxiliary equipment, encompassing safety systems, navigation and communication devices, auxiliary power units, cargo handling tools, and ground support equipment. For instance, in January 2023, Airbus SE, a Netherlands-based aerospace company, disclosed that it had delivered 661 commercial aircraft to 84 customers in 2022, marking an 8% rise from the 611 units supplied in 2021. Airbus also reported 1,078 new orders in 2022, contributing to its substantial end-December 2022 backlog of 7,239 aircraft. Consequently, the increasing demand for commercial aircraft is a driving force behind the expansion of the aerospace support and auxiliary equipment market.
The defense market is anticipated to experience innovation-driven growth in the forecast period, primarily propelled by rapid advancements in wireless technology and miniaturization of equipment components. Additionally, manufacturing processes are benefitting from technologies like 3D printing, artificial intelligence, and big data analytics, resulting in increased productivity and reduced operating costs, ultimately leading to higher profit margins. These cost savings enable companies to expand their production capabilities and diversify their product portfolios, contributing to the growth of the aerospace support and auxiliary equipment market.
The Multi-Function Radio Frequency System (MFRFS) is seeing expanded usage, transitioning from operational radar frequency ranges to broader broadband applications.
