Aircraft Braking System Market was valued at USD 6.8 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of over 4% between 2023 and 2032.
The global surge in air travel, driven by rising disposable incomes, urbanization, and a growing middle-class population, has led to a higher demand for new commercial aircraft. This, in turn, necessitates advanced braking systems to ensure safety during landing and ground operations. Furthermore, airlines frequently expand their fleets to meet this heightened demand, creating a substantial market for braking system manufacturers. As aircraft fleets expand, older aircraft are phased out or retrofitted, requiring the installation of modern braking systems to meet evolving safety and efficiency standards.
