Description

Definition and Scope:

The avionic systems include equipment for communication, cockpit display, control and monitoring, and navigation and other electromechanical systems. Avionics systems play a major role in the efficient movement of helicopters. Specifically, they provide pilots with critical data such as aircraft altitude, airstream incidence, and air speed with the help of air data sensors, accelerometers, pilots control stick sensor assembly, rate gyros, and other systems. Additionally, some helicopters are also employing synthetic vision systems (SVS), which allows the pilot to have a clear view even under low-visibility conditions. Similar technological developments like ERAM, H-TWAS, auto ground collision avoidance system (Auto-GCAS) expand aircraft operational capability and enable cost savings.

The global Helicopter Avionics market was valued at USD 3224.44 million in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 4994.44 million by the end of 2028, growing at a CAGR of 6.53% between 2022 and 2028. The growing number of innovations in technology have raised the demand for modern avionics as they offer improved reliability and enhanced functioning. Such advances in technology in avionics are a major driving force for global helicopter avionics market. Another main factor that will likely drive the demand of helicopter avionics is growing need in military. The armed forces of various countries require the use of more advanced helicopter avionics systems to meet the needs of modern warfare. Meanwhile, civil demand of helicopter is also an important driver for the helicopter avionics market. The avionics system ensures that the aircraft flies more safely and efficiently, and its performance directly determines the comprehensive performance of modern civil helicopter. As part of the midstream of the helicopter industry chain, the expansion of the helicopter market is bound to promote helicopter avionics development.

However, the market also faces some challenges, among which is the uncertainty of market demand. There are many factors influencing the needs of the helicopters, and there may be sudden increases in orders or cancellations. Moreover, the quality requirements in the military supply chain system are strict, and the user's inspection and acceptance time for products may be relatively long. All these may result in fluctuations in revenue in different months and different years. These require companies to have keen market insight and quick response capabilities.

There are other factors that will restrain the market growth. First, insufficient testing and validation to guarantee that such systems satisfy all criteria when they are implemented will restrain the market growth. Second, many countries have introduced strict emission standards, rules and operator laws in the industry, which will limit the use of helicopters and inhibit the expansion of the market. Finally, high cost of helicopter avionics will also restrict the market growth.

Segment by Type, the Helicopter Avionics can be split into Flight Control Systems, Communication and Navigation Systems, etc. In 2021, Flight Control Systems had the highest market share at 38.15%, followed by Communication and Navigation Systems (25.72%). In the forecast period of 2022-2028, the market size of Flight Control Systems will continue to be the highest, but slightly decreasing to 37.98% in 2022. Flight Control Systems, Communication and Navigation Systems all experienced a negative growth rate in 2021, but it is predicted that they will have a growth rate at around 6% in 2022.

From the perspective of application scenarios, the global helicopter avionics market can be divided into Civil Helicopter, Military Helicopter. The Civil Helicopter segment currently occupies a higher market share, accounting for 56.11% in 2021. It is expected that the market share of Civil Helicopter will increase slightly to 56.26% in 2022. The market share of military aircraft was 43.89%. It can be seen that civil helicopters do not have a great market advantage.

On the basis of geography, the global helicopter avionics market can be segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and Middle East & Africa. The North America region dominates and will continue to lead the market in sales, accounting for 52.35% in 2021. North America has the second largest market share, with a sales market share of 25.47% in 2021. The region's aerospace industry has matured and is strongly supported by a strong aviation base. The helicopter avionics market of North America benefits from the growing demand for helicopters in commercial applications and the defense sector. At the same time, the market in Asia Pacific is expected to grow at a considerable rate in the coming period. This is due to the presence of companies developing helicopter avionics and the increased interest in expanding other related systems in developing countries such as China, India and Japan.

In 2021, according to our calculations, the two indicators used to measure market concentration, CR5 and HHI, will be 42.71% and 3.67% respectively. This shows that the helicopter avionics market is currently concentrated. As a result, it will be difficult for new competitors to enter the market. The key players in the market include L3Harris Technologies, Inc., Collins Aerospace, Honeywell Aerospace, Thales, Garmin, Meggitt, HENSOLDT Avionics, BAE Systems, General Electric, Safran, FLIR Systems, Avidyne Corporation, Universal Avionics (UA), Aspen Avionics, ForeFlight, etc.
