Military Airlift Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2022-2030)
Emphasis on Type (Rotary-Wing Aircraft, Autonomous Delivery Vehicle); Application (Transporting Military Personnel, Transporting Military Supplies, Humanitarian Relief Operations, and Others); and Region/Country
Military Airlift Market was valued at USD 4.5 Billion in 2021 & is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2% from 2022-2030 owing to the growing demand for advanced freight and arms transport systems. Military airlift refers to the transportation of personnel, equipment, vehicles, weapons, and medical and food supplies by air to remote locations. It involves the use of various aircraft, such as transport planes, cargo planes, and helicopters, which are designed and equipped to carry a large amount of cargo during challenging conditions like combat zones or adverse weather conditions. It generally runs for tactical purposes while relying on smaller and more agile aircraft that are more capable of landing or taking off from shorter and paved runways. It helps evacuate wounded or injured soldiers from combat zones to facilities. It also assists in enhancing force protection by minimizing exposure to ground threats.
Some of the major players operating in the market include Airbus; Embraer S.A.; Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd; Lockheed Martin Corporation; ANTONOV COMPANY; Boeing; Leonardo S.p.A; NHIndustries; Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL); United Aircraft Corporation. Several M&As along with partnerships have been undertaken by these players to facilitate customers with hi-tech and innovative products/technologies.
Insights Presented in the Report
“Based on the application, the market has been categorized as transporting military personnel, transporting military supplies, humanitarian relief operations, and others. Among them, the diesel segment held a considerable share of the market in 2021.”
Based on the application, the market has been categorized as transporting military personnel, transporting military supplies, humanitarian relief operations, and others. Among them, the humanitarian relief operations segment held a considerable share of the market in 2021. The urgency and time sensitivity of humanitarian aid delivery make airlift a crucial option. Airlift allows for the rapid transportation of emergency relief supplies, including food, water, medical equipment, and temporary shelter, to affected areas. This timely response is essential for saving lives and providing immediate assistance to affected populations. In addition, the ability of airlift to overcome logistical challenges and access remote or disaster-stricken regions is a significant driver. Often, infrastructure and transportation networks are severely damaged or non-existent in such areas, making traditional ground transportation difficult or impossible. Airlift provides a reliable and efficient means of delivering aid directly to affected populations, bypassing road or sea transportation limitations. Additionally, the versatility of airlift allows for the evacuation of vulnerable populations, including the wounded, displaced civilians, or foreign nationals, from dangerous or inhospitable areas, ensuring their safety and well-being.
“Based on the type, the market has been categorized into rotary-wing aircraft and fixed-wing aircraft. Among them, the rotary-wing aircraft segment held a considerable share of the market in 2021.”
Based on the type, the market has been categorized into rotary-wing aircraft and fixed-wing aircraft. Among them, the rotary-wing aircraft segment held a considerable share of the market in 2021. Rotary-wing platforms offer unique advantages, such as vertical takeoff and landing capabilities, maneuverability in complex environments, and the ability to conduct close air support and medical evacuation operations. This has led to increased investments in rotary-wing airlift capabilities. For instance, the U.S. Army’s Future Vertical Lift (FVL) program, launched in 2011, aims to develop next-generation rotary-wing aircraft with improved speed, range, and performance. The FVL program represents a substantial investment in advancing rotary-wing airlift technology to meet evolving mission requirements. Additionally, countries invest in specialized rotary-wing platforms, such as combat search and rescue helicopters or heavy-lift helicopters, to enhance their military’s operational capabilities. The growth of rotary-wing airlift is also driven by the increasing need for rapid response and support in remote or rugged terrains, where helicopters excel in delivering troops, supplies, and providing close air support.
“Asia-Pacific holds the highest share of the military airlift market in 2021.”
The need for rapid response and deployment of forces in today’s dynamic security environment drives the demand for military airlift capabilities. Nations invest in advanced transport aircraft and infrastructure to enhance their strategic mobility and ability to project power and the rising demand for humanitarian assistance and disaster relief operations necessitates effective military airlift capabilities. Instances such as the delivery of relief supplies, medical assistance, and evacuation of affected populations in response to natural disasters or humanitarian crises underline the importance of robust airlift capabilities.
