Several types of military aircraft are being offered by the company. Its broad geographical presence is responsible for its growth, making it the second-largest market player.
Increasing demand for multi-mission aircraft is driving the segment growth
- The multi-role aircraft segment accounts for a major share in terms of revenue and volume as all regions are investing heavily in the modernization of their aging military fixed-wing aircraft fleet and procuring next-generation aircraft. In 2022, the multi-role aircraft segment accounted for 72% of the overall deliveries.
- The training and transport aircraft segments may also show healthy growth between 2022 and 2030, as countries are looking to procure newer generation aircraft to replace some of the old aircraft models that have been operational for several decades. The other fixed-wing aircraft segment includes special mission platforms that serve as “force multipliers” and constitute a respectable segment in the military aviation market. Business jets or regional transport aircraft are being converted for special missions due to lower acquisition and operating costs. North America is expected to drive the growth of this segment majorly.
- The multi-role aircraft segment accounts for a major share in terms of revenue and volume, primarily due to the high cost of fighter jets and the large-scale ongoing procurement of F-35 jets by the United States. As of December 2022, the US had outstanding deliveries for approximately 1,943 F-35 aircraft. Some of the major ongoing and future procurements of military fixed-wing aircraft include Germany's procurement of the F-35 from Lockheed Martin, which is likely to be delivered in 2026. The company also anticipates further orders for the aircraft in Europe, with Greece and the Czech Republic showing strong interest in the technologically advanced F-35. During 2023-30, around 5,469 fixed-wing aircraft are expected to be delivered.

The market is booming due to the growing need for modern warfare and defense budgets
- The fixed-wing aircraft segment accounted for around 60% of the global military aircraft fleet in 2021. The international security horizon in the second half of 2021 was marked by escalating conflicts and geopolitical and border issues, with major confrontations such as between Russia and Ukraine, India and China, and other nations in Asia-Pacific. The armed conflicts and internal security helped increase defense expenditures globally, with nations strengthening their armed forces with new procurements of fixed-wing aircraft.
- The world defense expenditure crossed over USD 2 trillion in 2021, with major military powers such as the United States increasing their defense budget by 3%, from USD 778 billion in 2020 to over USD 800 billion in 2021. Because of this, the North American region recorded the highest defense expenditure worldwide. The United States was followed by China, India, Russia, and the United Kingdom, which also increased their defense expenditure by 14%, 5%, 6.8%, and 13%, respectively.
- In 2022, the war between Russia and Ukraine further fueled the need to reassess the global operational readiness of the armed forces. NATO nations are undergoing fleet modernization and expansion programs with the procurement of new fixed-wing aircraft. Asia-Pacific and the Middle East are the major regions with a 7% and 5% growth, respectively, in their active fixed-wing aircraft fleet. As the aircraft fleet continues to grow, the fixed-wing global aircraft market is anticipated to experience 5,469 deliveries from 2023 to 2030.
Global Military Fixed-wing Aircraft Market Trends
Increased border tensions and the need for new aircraft has led to a surge in defense expenditure
- Asia-Pacific spent a total of USD 569 billion on military expenditures. Geopolitical conflicts such as border issues between China and India, internal security challenges, maritime surveillance, and counter-terrorism operations are some of the factors aiding the growth of the fixed-wing aircraft fleet of the countries in this region. The rise in military spending in China and India was the main cause of the increase in 2022. The combined military spending of the two nations in the region in 2022 was 66%. The increase in defense spending of the nations over the past ten years was driven by economic growth and territorial disputes.
- Major military powers, including India, China, Japan, and South Korea, are present in the Asia-Pacific region and are yearly growing their defense budgets. This budget includes a significant portion for the improvement and expansion of air superiority, which is driving the growth of military aviation in the region. For instance, in the budget of FY 2023, the Indian government allocated about 10% more for the Indian Air Force compared to the previous budget, including payments for the new Rafale fighters and the manufacturing of Sukhoi-30MKIs and Tejas fighters.
- The increased military spending in the Asia-Pacific region is intended to gain an advantage in several political and border conflicts, such as the tension in the South China Sea with many regional sovereign entities and border conflicts between India-China and India-Pakistan. The defense spending of major countries in China is expected to cross over USD 400 billion by 2030.

Fleet modernization and new procurements are projected to improve the APAC's military active fleet
- By the end of 2022, there were 15,543 active aircraft in the Asia-Pacific region, of which fixed-wing aircraft accounted for 60% while rotorcraft accounted for the remaining fleet. China, India, Japan, and South Korea together accounted for 55% of the total active fleet in the region.
- In 2020, the average aircraft fleet age in Asia-Pacific amounted to 9.5 years, which was projected to increase by 2030, when the average aircraft fleet age across the region was expected to be 10.7 years. The older aircraft, some of which date back to the 1960s, have been slowly phased out by the Indian Air Force. The MiG 21 and MiG 27 have been the backbone of the Indian Air Force (IAF). The average age of these aircraft is around 45 years. Australia’s two fighter aircraft, FA-18 and F-35, have been in service for the last 16 years and 8 years, respectively.
- Countries such as China, India, and South Korea are expanding their aircraft fleet size to fulfill the demands of modern warfare. They may continue to produce and acquire next-generation aircraft during the forecast period. The regional armed forces are also enhancing the capabilities of helicopters with cutting-edge technology to obtain military superiority over the external threat.
- Asia Pacific's active fleet increased by 3% in 2022 compared to 2017. Indonesia and Thailand accounted for 63% of the total fleet in Southeast Asia. In the coming years, the aircraft fleet may increase as major countries like Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and the Philippines plan to procure over 135 aircraft. The active fleet of the region is expected to expand at a healthy rate during the forecast period.

Military Fixed-wing Aircraft Industry Segmentation
Multi-Role Aircraft, Training Aircraft, Transport Aircraft, Others are covered as segments by Body Type. Asia-Pacific, Europe, Middle East and Africa, North America, South America are covered as segments by Region.
- The multi-role aircraft segment accounts for a major share in terms of revenue and volume as all regions are investing heavily in the modernization of their aging military fixed-wing aircraft fleet and procuring next-generation aircraft. In 2022, the multi-role aircraft segment accounted for 72% of the overall deliveries.
- The training and transport aircraft segments may also show healthy growth between 2022 and 2030, as countries are looking to procure newer generation aircraft to replace some of the old aircraft models that have been operational for several decades. The other fixed-wing aircraft segment includes special mission platforms that serve as “force multipliers” and constitute a respectable segment in the military aviation market. Business jets or regional transport aircraft are being converted for special missions due to lower acquisition and operating costs. North America is expected to drive the growth of this segment majorly.
- The multi-role aircraft segment accounts for a major share in terms of revenue and volume, primarily due to the high cost of fighter jets and the large-scale ongoing procurement of F-35 jets by the United States. As of December 2022, the US had outstanding deliveries for approximately 1,943 F-35 aircraft. Some of the major ongoing and future procurements of military fixed-wing aircraft include Germany's procurement of the F-35 from Lockheed Martin, which is likely to be delivered in 2026. The company also anticipates further orders for the aircraft in Europe, with Greece and the Czech Republic showing strong interest in the technologically advanced F-35. During 2023-30, around 5,469 fixed-wing aircraft are expected to be delivered.
