What Drivers Are Propelling the Growth of Airborne Optronics Market Forward?
The surging requirement to enlarge both commercial and military aircraft fleets is anticipated to boost the airborne optronics market's growth in the future. An aircraft fleet is a series of airplanes owned by an entity or a nation. To address potential threats from adjacent countries, nations are growing their aircraft fleet size. Airborne optronics are engineered to handle and provide support for airborne sensors and systems in manned and unmanned aircraft included in commercial and military aircraft fleets. For example, Ch Aviation, a Swiss airline intelligence provider, indicated a 13% uptick in the global aircraft fleet compared to 2021. Also, as of January 2022, the total number of aircraft stands at 28,289, with 22,799 in active use and 5,490 grounded. Among these, North America and Oceania have the largest active aircraft fleets, holding 86% and 85% respectively. Consequently, the escalating need to scale up commercial and military aircraft fleets is pushing forward the airborne optronics market growth.
