Aviation Test Equipment Market Size, Share, and COVID-19 Impact Analysis, By System (Electrical, Hydraulic, Pneumatic, and Others), By Aircraft (Fixed Wing, Rotary Wing, and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle), By Point of Sale (Original Equipment Manufacturers and Aftermarket), By End User (Civil and Military), and Regional Forecast, 2025-2032

The Aviation Test Equipment Market is expanding rapidly, driven by the growing demand for advanced aircraft. Aviation test equipment consists of devices used for the maintenance of aircrafts. These equipment are majorly used for the electrical, hydraulic and pneumatic sub-systems of the aircraft. Aviation test equipment is used for the calibration, inspection, and testing of the aircraft systems.

The global aviation test equipment market is driven by the constant evolution in technology in aviation. Apart from this, increased passenger traffic is leading to airlines expanding their fleets. This leads to an increase in the air traffic and hence in requirement for aviation test equipment.

Aviation test equipment is used before and after an aircraft’s flight. Various sub-systems such as hydraulics, pneumatics and electricals need to be checked for any possible damages after a flight, and need to be repaired. The equipment consists of software drivers, an operating system, instrumentation hardware, and a controller platform. The software uses a test language to check the systems after repair.

A restraint for the growth of the aviation test equipment industry is the development of new aircrafts, which are more robust and require less maintenance after each flight. This in turn is increasing the technological advancements of the test equipment, but decreasing the overall demand. Other restraints include the regulations imposed by aviation bodies, adhering to which the test equipment has to be designed.

Impact of the COVID-19 on Global Aviation Test Equipment Industry:

The aviation industry was one of the hardest hit industries during COVID-19. Worldwide lockdowns and supply chain disruptions forced the aircrafts to be grounded. With the production of new aircrafts seeing a sharp decline, and the older aircraft being grounded, there was a decrease in the demand for aviation test equipment. Aircraft did not require repairs or testing, and this negatively impacted the market.

The global aviation test equipment market is divided into four broad categories-by system, by aircraft, by point of sale, by end user, and by region.

Based on system, the market is divided into electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and others.

Based on the type of aircraft, the market is segmented into fixed wing, rotary wing, and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV).

Based on the point of sale, the market is divided into Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and aftermarket.

Based on the end user, the market is bifurcated into Civil and Military. Based on the region, the market is divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and Latin America.
