Segment Forecast Highlights

By display type, the Multi-Function Display segment is forecast to deliver the fastest growth through 2031, driven by the expanding range of functions and data sources that operators seek to integrate into their cockpit display environments. Primary Flight Displays will maintain the largest absolute revenue contribution, reflecting their mandatory presence in every certified aircraft and the consistent replacement demand generated by the large global installed base. Mission Displays are forecast to grow strongly, supported by expanding military procurement programs globally. Backup Displays will grow steadily as regulatory requirements ensure consistent replacement demand.

By application, Military Aircrafts are forecast to deliver above-average revenue growth, driven by premium display specifications, expanding defence budgets, and the ambitious aircraft modernisation programs being pursued by major military powers. Commercial Aircrafts will maintain the largest absolute revenue contribution through sustained new aircraft production and MRO activity. By aircraft type, General Aviation is forecast to be the fastest-growing segment on a percentage basis, as affordable glass cockpit retrofit solutions bring digital avionics to a rapidly expanding proportion of the global light aircraft fleet.

Market Drivers

Commercial Aircraft Production Backlog Providing Revenue Visibility

The multi-year production backlogs maintained by Airbus and Boeing provide exceptional revenue visibility for glass cockpit suppliers through the full 2025 to 2031 forecast window. Aircraft positions already confirmed in OEM order books translate directly into glass cockpit procurement commitments, making the commercial aviation production driver one of the most reliable revenue predictors in the avionics market. This production visibility supports a confident positive forecast for the commercial aircraft glass cockpit segment.

MRO Retrofit Programs Sustaining Aftermarket Revenues

MRO-driven retrofit activity is expected to sustain consistent revenue contributions throughout the forecast period. Airlines balancing the cost of new aircraft acquisition against the benefits of fleet life extension are finding cockpit modernisation programs to be a commercially attractive middle path, and the volume of retrofit activity is expected to grow as the global fleet of aircraft with older analogue cockpits ages and the cost differential between retrofit and replacement becomes more pronounced.

Military Procurement Programs Providing Stable Defence Revenue

Defence glass cockpit procurement provides a stable and growing revenue stream that is largely independent of commercial aviation market conditions. Government defence budgets in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific are sustaining consistent procurement of advanced display systems for fighter, transport, and trainer aircraft programmes throughout the forecast period. The premium pricing of military-specification displays means that defence procurement contributes disproportionately to market value growth relative to volume.

Asia Pacific Aviation Growth Creating Volume Demand

Asia Pacific commercial aviation growth is the primary geographic driver of forecast volume expansion in the glass cockpit market. China's fleet expansion, India's airline sector growth, and the continued maturation of Southeast Asian aviation markets are collectively creating a large and rapidly growing demand pool for glass cockpit systems in new aircraft deliveries and fleet modernisation programs.
