# Aircraft Landing Gear Market to Grow at 11.78% CAGR till 2027; Promising Advancements in Aircraft Electronics to Open New Growth Avenues for the Market: Fortune Business Insights™ The global aircraft landing gear market size is projected to reach USD 20.15 billion by 2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 11.78% during the forecast period. Next-gen aircraft development plans by major economies will accelerate the progress of this market, observes Fortune Business Insights™ in its report, titled “Aircraft Landing Gear Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Nose Landing Gear and Main Landing Gear), By Platform (Fixed-Wing, Rotary Wing), By Arrangement (Tail Wheel, Tandem, and Tri-Cycle), By Component (Retraction System, Breaks & Wheels, Steering, and Others), By End-User (OEM and Aftermarket), and Regional Forecast, 2020-2027”. With a view to strengthen their air defense and offense capabilities, major world economies are putting in place plans to steadily augment, expand, and modernize their existing military aircraft fleets. For example, in October 2020, the US revealed its ‘Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD)’ program that will require private aircraft manufacturers to develop and produce a new fighter jet within five years or less. India, which has been making massive investments in defense technologies, unveiled its plans in October 2020 to engineer and produce the fifth generation Advanced Multi-role Combat Aircraft (AMCA), which will be developed by the state-owned Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. Aircraft landing gear systems will be a critical component in these advanced aircrafts as they will facilitate safe and secure take-off and landing as well as ensure the safety of the pilot. As per the report, the value of the market stood at USD 11.55 billion in 2019.

Restraining Factor Dramatic Contraction in Air Travel Demand amid COVID-19 to Hurt the Market The COVID-19 pandemic has proven to be catastrophic for the aviation sector, with travel restrictions, lockdowns, and fears of getting infected keeping travelers away from airports and airplanes. According to the latest data released by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), for the whole of 2020, there has been a 51% reduction in the number of seats offered by airlines. Furthermore, the number of air passengers has shrunk between 2,874 million and 2,886 million in 2020, leading to an unprecedented loss of 389 billion to 391 billion in operating revenues to airlines. In large domestic markets, air travel demand has slumped by staggering levels. For example, the International Air Travel Association (IATA) estimates passenger demand for air travel in India will fall by 49% in 2020. In addition, aerospace manufacturing activities have also taken a hit due to the pandemic as lockdowns and social distancing have reduced labor presence in production plants, while trade restrictions have severely damaged global supply chains. Together, these circumstances created by the coronavirus are likely to affect the aircraft landing gear market growth in 2020 and 2021.
