Growing demand for pilot training resulting from increasing procurement of newer aircraft is expected to propel the growth of the Military Training Aircraft Market during the forecast period. The global militaries are focused on procuring new-generation aircraft because their plants operate a smaller yet capable aircraft fleet. Due to this, many military aircraft are procured to replace older airframes. In June 2021, the U.S. Air Force (USAF) asked the U.S. government to retire 201 aircraft in the fiscal year 2022, to reinvest savings from maintaining and not operating these aircraft into R&D.
Furthermore, the rise in the development of newer generation trainer aircraft is also expected to augment the growth of the Military Training Aircraft Market over the forecast period. Many countries are using trainer aircraft that were procured years ago. Recently many of these older training aircraft are facing accidents worldwide, due to which militaries are procuring newer training aircraft. Thus, to cater to the increasing demand for replacing older fighter trainers with new data-centric aircraft, the development of newer training aircraft is growing globally, driving market CAGR growth.
Additionally, companies operating in the military flight training schools industry are increasing their focus on improving the accessibility to immersive training devices, which can help accelerate the pilot training process. These factors are fueling market growth. Moreover, the military flight training schools market is prognosticated to expand due to an increase in the use of low-cost simulation programs across the industry. Several nations across the globe are growing the use of next-gen technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and virtual reality (VR) to address various security issues as well as challenges occurring due to violent extremist organizations and terrorist attacks. This factor is estimated to drive growth opportunities in the military flight training schools market in the upcoming years. Innovations like Google Cloud are gaining traction in the military flight training schools industry owing to several advantages, including their cost-efficiency and scalable cloud-based training interface, which supports various plane simulation types. Increased awareness among student pilots about using Google Cloud to gain a secure and consistent user experience boosts the Military Training Aircraft market revenue.
Based on Type, the Military Training Aircraft Market segmentation includes basic jet trainers, intermediate jet trainers, and advanced jet trainers. The basic jet trainers segment dominated the market due to the growing adoption of military training aircraft by developed countries such as the US and the UK is driving the segment growth.
February 2021 Boeing started the production of the T-7A Red Hawk jet trainer at its St. Louis, Missouri production facility. The aircraft was developed under the partnership between Boeing and Saab, and it will deliver 351 aircraft to the U.S. Air Force under a US$ 9.2 billion contract made in September 2018.
Based on seat type, the Military Training Aircraft Market segmentation includes single & twin. The single segment dominated the market, owing to the increasing modernization of old military training aircraft.
September 2020 In September 2020, Textron Aviation Defense LLC announced that it had won a USD 162 million contract from the Royal Thai Air Force for military training aircraft. The deal includes 12 Wichita-built Beechcraft T-6C Texan II aircraft and related training systems, spare parts, and ground support equipment.
