The increasing demand for commercial aircraft is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as cost pressure on ATC equipment manufacturers may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Key Air Traffic Control Equipment Market Driver
The increasing demand for commercial aircraft is notably driving market growth. The demand for air traffic control equipment is expected to grow with the corresponding growth in the new generation of aircraft. Commercial aircraft OEMs are actively developing a new generation of aircraft with lower fuel consumption, noise, and carbon dioxide emissions. The year-on-year (YOY) growth in air traffic has also made it important to introduce new aircraft to facilitate the growing demand. Aircraft manufacturers are also increasing their production capacity to ensure the timely delivery of new aircraft.
As demand for aircraft increases, aircraft OEMs are investing in capacity expansion, especially in the APAC region. Both Boeing Co. and Airbus SE have expanded their manufacturing and assembly operations in China to increase their domestic and regional customer base. In addition, innovative disruptions in the Chinese commercial aircraft engine segment are expected to bring significant changes to the aviation industry with the launch of a new commercial aircraft, the narrow-body COMAC C919. Growing demand for commercial aircraft is expected to augment the demand for air traffic equipment for proper navigation, communication, and control, which will fuel the growth of the global air traffic equipment market during the forecast period.
Significant Air Traffic Control Equipment Market Trend
The implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain is a major trend in the market. ATC management has increasingly used advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain. Artificial intelligence is a key factor in revolutionary air traffic control systems. To avoid dangerous situations, AI systems evaluate important information such as airspace traffic, local conditions, ground risks, flight restrictions, and weather forecasts.
Flight monitoring with artificial intelligence ensures safe operation and makes optimal routes possible. AI-powered air traffic control enables intelligent flight conflict resolution based on real-world variables, detecting and avoiding other aircraft and objects. Blockchain technology reduces the possibility of human error in aviation. Blockchain, enhanced with smart contracts, is the key to ensuring that unmanned flights comply with the laws and regulations governing the use of airspace. Thus, the increasing adoption of technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain in ATC equipment will boost the growth of the global ATC equipment market during the forecast period.
Major Air Traffic Control Equipment Market Challenge
Cost pressure on ATC equipment manufacturers is a major challenge impeding market growth. Currently, the challenge for airport components is to produce high-quality components at a low price. Therefore, ATC equipment manufacturers must create growth strategies to be profitable in this challenging but attractive market. Tough competition between manufacturers and growing consumer demand restrict cost parameters and profitability from OEMs. In addition, since the supply base is small due to concentration, suppliers diversify the different components in the product. This diversification is capital-intensive and entails new services such as the design and development of new parts. This makes it difficult for suppliers to keep costs down.
ATC equipment manufacturers must also limit production costs to meet demand requirements and deliver quality products, as they are responsible for product defects that can affect the bottom line. One such possibility is the outsourcing of production to low-cost countries. However, keeping production costs low becomes a challenge as labor costs increase in these countries. Therefore, such factors hinder the production of air traffic equipment, which is likely to restrain the growth of the global air traffic equipment market during the forecast period.
