Abstract

"Military Fixed Wing Aircraft Market Size and Trend Analysis by Segment (Combat Aircraft, Transport Aircraft, ISR Aircraft, and Others), Key Programs, Competitive Landscape and Forecast, 2023-2033" report provides the market size forecast and the estimated Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) for the next ten years. The report covers industry analysis including the key market drivers, trends, emerging technologies, and major challenges faced by industry participants. It also offers insights regarding key factors and programs that are expected to influence the demand for military fixed wing aircraft market over the forecast period.

Over the decade, the military fixed wing aircraft market is bound to witness radical change due to increasing demand for fifth-generation Combat Aircraft. Countries have already initiated their modernization drives, with plans laid down to replace aging fleets with latest capabilities for relevance well into 2050s. Mid-cycle upgradations have been focusing on extending the life of the fleet by up to a decade. Countries are also enhancing their indigenous platform development expertise through technology transfer agreements. Aircraft procurement programs are being devised with emphasis on a lower operational cost over the life of the platform and an affordable acquisition cost, while also ensuring incorporation of recent developments in avenues of low observable technology and intelligence collection capabilities.

The combat aircraft segment is expected to be the largest segment accounting for 74.7% of the global military fixed wing aircraft market over the forecast period. The segment is expected to receive robust investment over the forecast period, owing to procurement of next-generation multi-role combat aircraft with advanced sensors, electronic warfare, communication, and weapon systems to improve their ground attack and air defense capabilities. Several countries have already initiated programs to replace their aging 3rd and 4th generation aircraft with 4.5 and 5th generation combat aircraft to maintain combat effectiveness and fleet size. According to Chandan Kumar Nayak, Defense Analyst at GlobalData, "Many countries are focusing on indigenous design and manufacturing, reducing their reliance on foreign suppliers of military weapons. Due to the exorbitant expenses of obtaining foreign aircraft, some emerging nations are also being driven to commence military aircraft production initiatives, which has resulted in the growth of the military fixed wing aircraft market."

North America region is expected to dominate the global military fixed wing aircraft market from 2023 to 2033, with the US accounting for the largest market share. The US's dominance in the military fixed wing aircraft market is influenced by the country's ambitious advanced military programs to ensure air superiority and maintain its global military edge over its adversaries. The US currently has several high-value programs for the procurement of next generation capability aircraft. Some of the major ongoing procurement programs include F-35, F-15EX, and the development of B-21 raider. Apart from combat aircraft the US is also expected to procure several ISR and tanker aircraft to support electronic warfare and expeditionary power projection capabilities.
