Airborne Optronics Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Technology (Multispectral and Hyperspectral), System, Aircraft Type (Fixed Wing, Rotary Wing, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, and Urban Air Mobility), Application and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Airborne Optronics Market is accounted for $1.40 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach $4.08 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 14.3% during the forecast period. Some of the factors such as modernization and technological advancements and a growing fleet of commercial and combat aircraft are propelling the market growth. However, incapability in extreme weather conditions is hampering the market growth.
Airborne optronic products are widely utilized by armed forces and safety personnel for observation, recognition, evaluation, highly precise measurement, and defense applications. Such optronic products are majorly deployed on platforms such as submarines, manned and unmanned aircraft, armored vehicles, and satellites, among others.
Based on the end user, the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) segment is estimated to have lucrative growth during the forecast period. OEMs are responsible for the installation of optronics in an aircraft during the assembly stage and are then made available for delivery to aircraft manufacturers and space agencies.
By geography, North America is going to have lucrative growth due to the rapid development of technologically advanced optronics systems; rising investment in defense and aerospace R&D, and a growing number of aircraft orders and delivers. In addition, the robust presence of key manufacturers and rising adoption of airborne optronics in the United States are also expected to contribute to revenue growth of the market in the region.
Some of the key players profiled in the Airborne Optronics Market include Collins Aerospace, Elbit Systems Ltd., Excelitas Technologies Corporation, Flir Systems, Inc., Hensoldt AG, Israel Aerospace Industries, Kappa Optronics GmbH, L3Harris Technologies Inc., Leonardo Spa, Lockheed Martin Corporation, Northrop Grumman Corporation, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd., Safran, Stark Aerospace, Inc., Thales SA, Bae Systems plc, Aselsan A.a., Intevac, Inc., Ximea GmbH, Headwall Photonics, Inc., Cubert GmbH, Resonon Inc., Osi Optoelectronics, Inc., Leidos Holdings, Inc., and Ii-Vi, Inc.
