Report: Helicopters Market Worth $37.4 Billion By 2025

Represents Annual Growth Of 2.8 Percent

According to the new market research report "Helicopters Market by Point Of Sale (OEM, Aftermarket), OEM Type (Light, Medium, Heavy), OEM Application (Military, Civil & Commercial), OEM Component & System, Aftermarket by Component & System, and Region - Global Forecast to 2025", published by MarketsandMarkets, the Helicopters Market size is expected to reach $37.4 billion by 2025 from $31.7 billion in 2019, registering a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 2.8% from 2019 to 2025. Increased demand for military helicopters is a significant growth driver for the helicopters market. Increased demand for light weight and emergency medical services (EMS) helicopters are other drivers for the market.

More than 50% of the global civil & commercial helicopter deliveries in 2018 were light helicopters, mainly due to their operational efficiency and easy maneuverability, which are essential for civil & commercial applications such as transport, civil utility, and offshore, among others. High demand for civil & commercial applications such as short distance air transport and a rise in the number of offshore rigs have also fueled the demand for light helicopters.

The transport helicopters segment is projected to lead the application market during the forecast period due to the increasing demand for helicopters as a mode of inter- and intra-city transport. The vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) capabilities of helicopters, along with the lower space requirements for helipads as compared to airports, are the main factors fueling this demand. Travel by helicopter also saves time as compared to other modes of transport, which is another factor contributing to the demand for light and medium transport helicopters.

North America is estimated to account for the largest share of the helicopters in 2019. The U.S. was the highest military spender in 2018, with a large chunk of the investment focused on the procurement of various military helicopters. The U.S. is a lucrative market for helicopter OEMs in the North American region as the government is investing increasingly to enhance the quality and effectiveness of helicopters and their systems. For instance, in September 2018, Boeing (U.S.) won a $2.4 billion helicopter contract from the US Air Force for the procurement of 84 Boeing MH-139 helicopters.

Along with this, the demand for civil & commercial helicopters is continually increasing. Civil usage of helicopters for transport and emergency services has also generated a demand for helicopters for civil applications in the US. As per the University of Chicago Aeromedical Network, in 2018, approximately 900 helicopters undertook 300,000 flights as air ambulances.
