Aircraft Lightning Protection Market

Aircraft Lightning Protection Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Type (Fixed Wing, Rotary Wing, and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAVs)), by Fit (Line-Fit and Retrofit), by Application (Test service, Lightning Detection & Warning, and Lightning protection), and by End-user (Civil and Military) Forecast, 2022-2028

Published: Jul 2022 | Report Code: OMR2026906 | Category : Aerospace and Defense | Delivery Format: /

Aircraft lightning Protection market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period (2022-2028). One of the major factors contributing to the growth of the global aircraft lightning protection market is the increasing number of R&D activities to develop new polymers and innovative theories that would increase the market penetration in the upcoming forecast year. For instance, the growing use of composite body airframes has grown due to the developments in transit voltage suppressors provide large plastic area devices that are up to the RTCA DO-160E multi-strike lightning standard. These industrial values are supported by the strict safety norms enforced by many regulatory bodies to improve the integration of protective materials in fuel efficiency and aircraft infrastructure. The aircraft lightning protection norms are continuously developed by regulatory bodies such as European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and Federal Aviation Administration. 

Another driver for the growth of the global aircraft lightning protection market is the increased aircraft production due to the rising air passenger traffic and the necessity to replace old aircraft fleets would significantly increase the market growth of the global aircraft lightning protection industry. The number of air passengers is expected to be nearly eight billion in the year 2036, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), which is double passengers traveling by air in 2018. For instance, in January 2019, Bombardier Inc. received an order of 120 new aircraft by JetBlue, displaying the growth in aircraft manufacturing which will propel the growth of the global aircraft lightning protection market.      

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Global Aircraft Lightning Protection Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has hindered the growth of the global aircraft lightning protection market. Due to the lockdowns imposed by governments across the globe, the aviation industry came to a complete halt. During the pandemic governments banned all commercial international flights to curb the spread of the COVID-19 virus, a limited number of domestic flights were operational with only 50% capacity on a priority basis. Due to these restrictions and ban on commercial flights, the aviation industry lost a huge amount of monetary value and failed to generate revenue causing several aviation companies to file bankruptcy. To accommodate these losses aviation companies are now operating on thin margins to revive the market. The aviation industry is expected to make a recovery after the end of the COVID-19 pandemic and market growth in the future.

Global Aircraft Lightning Protection Market Share by Fit, 2021 (%)

Global Aircraft Lightning Protection Market Share by Fit

The Line-fit Segment Holds the Major Share in the Global Aircraft Lightning Protection Market.

Based on the fit segment, the line-fit segment holds the majority of the shares in the global aircraft lightning protection market. This majority can be contributed to the major use of line-fit solutions which utilizes conductive material installation in the aircraft structure to safeguard the airplane from lightning strikes. Aircraft manufacturers are developing new components and design systems that include expanded metal that can disperse and withstand electrical discharge strikes while also reducing the weight of the lightning protection components. New developments in products like static wicks, transitive voltage suppressors, and expanded metal foils would help in overcoming the limitations of composite materials.

Regional Outlooks

The global aircraft lightning protection market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).  The market can be analyzed for a particular region or country level as per the requirement.
