The Global Augmented and Virtual Reality in Aviation Market was valued at USD 527.55 million in 2023 and is expected to grow at a strong CAGR of around 49.04% during the forecast period (2024-2032). One of the key factors that has remarkably supported the integration of the AR and VR solutions market in aviation is the integration of digital cockpits and head-up displays. These displays are integrated with the new generation of aircraft to overlay critical flight information such as navigation data, airspeed, engine temperature, fuel, and altitude directly in the pilot’s view. Many of the aviation companies have started integrating the head-Up displays to offer such functionality to provide a compressive field of view to the pilot and offer better situational awareness. For instance, in 2024, the government of Singapore announced its plans to purchase 8 new F35 aircraft. This purchase would be on top of an earlier 12 F35A aircraft purchase signed by the government of Singapore.
In another instance, in 2024, the government of Germany announced its plans to purchase 20 additional Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft (4.5 generation) by the end of 2025.
Global Augmented and Virtual Reality in Aviation Market Trends
This section discusses the key market trends that are influencing the various segments of the Global Augmented and Virtual Reality in Aviation Market as identified by our team of research experts.
