IoT in Aerospace and Defence Market Size

The global IoT in aerospace and defence market is projected to grow from USD 40.94 billion in 2021 to USD 70.55 billion by 2026 at a CAGR value of 11.5% from 2021 to 2026.

The Internet of Things (IoT) in today’s world offers a variety of technologies and services that help the aerospace and defence industry run more efficiently. Mobility planning, health management, inventory control, repair and maintenance, analytic tools, and other operations are some of the applications of IoT.

The growing need to implement Industry 4.0 technologies (i.e. the trend of automation and data exchange in manufacturing technologies) by transforming mobility, production and sales of products and services of the aerospace industry, and the rising need for data privacy and storage are some of the driving factors supporting the market’s growth throughout the forecast period.

The market is primarily driven by the advantages offered by IoT in terms of high connectivity, improved security, and quick decision-making capabilities. In addition, the market for IoT in the aircraft and defence sector is being driven by rising need for innovative and reliable aerospace services.

As more number of manufacturers integrate sensor technologies into their equipment, military and commercial airlines are generating gigabytes of data every day. Hence, with the rising need to store huge amount of data, the market for IoT in aerospace and defence will increase rapidly.

Some of the parameters that aircraft makers are benefiting from IoT integration are increased engine fuel economy and noise performance improvement and emission cancellation. Hence, these IoT solutions provide OEMs, engine makers, and airline operators with new revenue sources.

Satellite communication, ISR, and GPS, in particular, can boost situational awareness on the battlefield in the defence sector. Improved reporting also allows facilities to automatically contact medical teams based on a soldier's health status. They also benefit from predictive maintenance, which uses sensors to determine how long a piece of equipment will endure and when a replacement or repair is necessary or possible.

The COVID-19 outbreak had a significant impact on the IoT in aerospace and defence market. As many industries were forced to halt operations owing to the lockout, demand for IoT in Aerospace and Defence fell, limiting market growth and reduced the revenue of the IoT in aerospace and defence market in 2020. It also caused a supply chain disturbance, resulting in lower demand for the market.

Nonetheless, not only is technology a major cost to consider, but the expertise required to enable the technology to be implemented is a major challenge that will stymie market growth, and the shift to digitally connected systems has increased the demand for highly skilled labor, which may unintentionally reduce the demand for low-skill labor.
