Market Share of Navigation System Industry
The competitive rivalry in the navigation systems market is high owing to some key players like Garmin Ltd, Honeywell International Inc., Collins Aerospace Inc., Safran Electronics & Defense Inc., and many more. Their ability to continually innovate their products through significant research and development investments has helped them achieve a competitive advantage over other players.
- In February 2023, Raytheon Company Ltd. announced that it had won USD 8.6 million contract to provide F-35 JPALS for Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF). JPALS is a software-based differential Global Positioning System navigation and precision landing system. The contract was awarded by U.S. Navy. JPALS is integrated with the F-35 fighter, capable of operating, approaching, and landing on naval vessels at sea in all weather conditions.
- In January 2022, African countries joined part of the satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) because of ASECNA (Agency for Aerial Navigation Safety in Africa and Madagascar) efforts. SBAS is a precise and robust Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) system that eliminates the need for regional ground-based navigation aids and airport landing systems. Africa Aviation, led by ASECNA, can develop its own SBAS system to assist the airlines or aviation stakeholders.
