Air Traffic Control Equipment Market to Reach $11.7B by 2025 with 8.6% CAGR

Global air traffic control equipment market was valued at $11.7 billion in 2025 and is growing at a CAGR of 8.6% during the forecast period (2026-2035). Modern aircraft, with lightweight airframes and electric motors, require precise air traffic monitoring and navigation, resulting in market growth fueled by the rising use of radar and surveillance systems. This shift toward advanced, electrically powered aircraft is illustrated by recent developments in production-ready eVTOL models. For instance, in December 2025, AIR introduced its production-ready eVTOL aircraft, moving to commercial manufacturing with an inaugural flight planned in Southern Israel. Future models will be used in the US for demonstrations and certifications. The aircraft boasts a 550 lbs payload capacity and features a new airframe by EDAG, electric motors, and upgraded avionics for GPS-denied navigation. Design improvements for operational efficiency include optimized battery integration, an expanded cargo bay, and foldable wings for compact storage, enhancing flight efficiency, range, and stability through an advanced flight control system.

• In January 2026, Airbus UpNext introduced the Airbus UpNext SpaceRAN, a demonstrator focused on enabling standardized global connectivity through advanced 5G Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) capabilities. The initiative aims to offer secure, cost-effective solutions for various applications, including commercial, defense, and governmental uses, confirming the feasibility of universal connectivity that is interoperable and globally accessible. Utilizing Airbus' software-defined satellites, SpaceRAN will manage and optimize 5G signals in orbit, processing data in space to reduce latency, maximize data throughput, and enhance network efficiency, facilitating direct user connectivity.
• In May 2025, ZeroAvia partnered with RVL Aviation to use the ZA600-equipped Cessna Caravan for the UK's initial domestic flights, marking potentially the first hydrogen-electric commercial operations globally. RVL will retrofit Cessna Grand Caravan aircraft with ZeroAvia's zero-emission ZA600 powertrain. Operations will start upon receiving necessary certifications and completing retrofitting and training. Analysis indicates that these aircraft will meet operational needs while significantly reducing environmental impact, with nearly 1,000 cargo aircraft worldwide that could be converted to ZA600 powertrains in the future.
