Market Overview:
The global helicopter simulator market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market was valued at US$ 1,362.8 million in 2018 and is projected to reach US$ 2,023.7 million by 2030. The growth of the global helicopter simulator market can be attributed to the increasing demand for helicopters for civil aviation and military use applications across the globe. The type segment of the global helicopter simulator market is divided into fixed-based simulators (FFSs) and flight training devices (FTDs), with ATD type being the dominant type which occupied above 64% of sales in 2018 . FFSs are used for pilot training on a full-scale replica cockpit while FTDs are used for basic familiarization with aircraft controls and systems before pilots fly an actual aircraft . Civil aviation accounted for majority share in terms of application in 2017 , owing to increase in air travel across different geographies .
Product Definition:
A helicopter simulator is a software or hardware tool used to simulate the experience of flying a helicopter. This can be used for training purposes, or for entertainment.
FFS and FTD:
Feedback and Testimonial (FFS/FTD) are the positive or negative indications received by a product, service or an individual after using it. It is used to express gratitude for the value that a product has added to people’s lives. In case of any defects in products, manufacturers usually seek feedback from customers so that they can fix them in future editions.
ATD:
Automatic Terrain Descending (ATD) is a technology that enables helicopters to land on any surface, even if it's not flat. It helps in improving the landing and take-off capabilities of helicopters by decreasing the ground impact. The system consists of sensors, control units and motors which work together to provide enhanced safety during landing and taking off from short distances.
Application Insights:
The civil aviation segment is expected to witness the highest growth over the forecast period. The increasing need for training and evaluation of crew in helicopters, which has resulted in growing demand for flight simulators among several operators. Furthermore Civil Helicopter Simulator (HLS) provides a realistic environment that helps pilots train as per actual conditions, thereby resulting in increased adoption across various operators globally.
Civil application of flight simulators has been gaining traction since past few years owing to its ability to provide an accurate simulation experience with high-fidelity 3D graphics and advanced systems such as navigation, communication & information technology (NCIT). Moreover civil helicopter simulator also known as full motion simulator or Flight Data System (FDS) is used by several operators globally including Augusta Westland Ltd., British Airways, Cathay Pacific Airways Limited., Cobham Training & Simulation America Inc., Endress+Hauser Management AG et al. These aforementioned factors are projected to fuel market growth over the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2018 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The U.S., being a developed economy, has well-established civil aviation infrastructure, which enables easy access to Helicopter simulators for maintenance training programs and refresher flights.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be one of the fastest growing regions over the forecast period owing to increasing demand from countries such as China and India. These countries are developing their domestic aviation industry by encouraging tourists opting for helicopter ride services across various tourist destinations such as Agra fort, Taj Mahal etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for helicopter simulator from the aviation sector to train pilots
- Growing popularity of helicopter simulation games among gamers
- Proliferation of VR and AR technology in the market
- Rising number of flight schools and training institutes across the globe
- Increasing adoption of helicopter simulators by militaries for training purposes
