Description

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Ram Air Turbine (RAT) market size was valued at US$ 396 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 595 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 6.1% during review period.

A ram air turbine (RAT) is an emergency power unit used in the event of an engine shutdown and a complete failure of the auxiliary power unit (APU). It provides essential hydraulic and electrical energy to the aircraft in an emergency, ensuring continued operation of critical systems.

When both primary and auxiliary power are lost, the RAT utilizes the relative ram pressure energy generated by the aircraft's taxiing speed, converting it into mechanical energy through a turbine and a speed regulator. This energy drives a hydraulic pump or generator, providing emergency hydraulic and electrical power to the aircraft. This allows the pilot to maintain basic control of the aircraft even if all conventional power sources fail.

In the event of an engine shutdown at high altitude, the RAT can serve as an emergency power source (sometimes in conjunction with the EPU), supporting aircraft control and enabling the pilot to safely descend to an altitude and speed where the onboard engines can be restarted. If an in-flight engine start fails, the RAT continues to provide the necessary power, ensuring a safe glide and landing.

On modern aircraft, the RAT is typically mounted on the nose, belly, or tail of the aircraft and deployed only in emergency situations. It can be activated automatically or manually by the pilot. The RAT's power output is closely related to aircraft speed—the higher the speed, the greater the power output. Some models also feature the RAT mounted inside the landing gear door for a more compact layout.

In 2024, global RAT production will be 1,210 units, with an average price range of around US$300,000.

The ram air turbine (RAT) market is currently dominated by a handful of leading global companies, including Collins Aerospace, Safran, and ATGI. As a critical emergency power unit in the event of an engine failure or complete failure of the auxiliary power system, RATs play a vital role in both civil and military aviation, providing essential hydraulic and electrical power to ensure the operation of critical systems and flight safety. Due to their high technical barriers to entry, specialized application scenarios, and extremely high reliability requirements in emergency situations, competition in this market is concentrated, with product innovation primarily focused on increasing power output, reducing structural size, and enhancing deployment reliability.
