Global GPS and GNSS Receivers in Aviation Market Growth 2026-2032
Description
The global GPS and GNSS Receivers in Aviation market size is predicted to grow from US$ 282 million in 2025 to US$ 425 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2026 to 2032.
GPS and GNSS Receivers in Aviation are specialized navigation and positioning devices installed on aircraft, helicopters, and other aerial platforms. By receiving signals from global navigation satellite systems such as GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and Galileo—often augmented with SBAS/GBAS services—these receivers provide precise position, velocity, and timing data. Designed for high reliability and resistance to interference, aviation receivers meet stringent certification requirements and integrate with avionics suites such as Flight Management Systems (FMS), autopilots, and ADS‑B position sources to support flight navigation, precision approaches, and air traffic services. In 2025, global GPS and GNSS Receivers in Aviation sales reached approximately 40 K Units, with an average price of 7,200 US$/Unit.
The GPS/GNSS receivers in aviation market is driven by global growth in air transportation and aircraft fleet modernization. Increasing demand for civil and general aviation services, along with regulatory requirements for improved navigational performance, encourages airlines and aircraft operators to procure more precise and reliable satellite navigation equipment. Implementation of ADS‑B for aircraft position reporting and modernization of air traffic management systems further accelerates adoption of advanced aviation GNSS receivers. Additionally, military and special aviation platforms demand high availability and anti‑spoofing capabilities, driving technology upgrades and replacement cycles.
