The simulator is a device, system or computer program artificially created to provide a realistic imitation of the controls of a vehicle, aircraft or the complex system. These are particularly used in training people such as pilots, astronauts, and military people.

Market Dynamics

The market is gaining pace owing to the growing demand for pilots in the aviation industry and the acceptance of virtual pilot training to ensure aviation safety. The rising need for cost-cutting in pilot training in some economies is driving the market value. Reduction in military budgets of developed economies as well as low budget in some developing and underdeveloped economies is further supporting the market value. The favorable support from regulatory bodies to use the simulators for initial training, as the Simulators provide a realistic experience and safe training is further propelling the market value. Furthermore, the development of simulators for unmanned aerial systems, and for air accident investigation is projected to create potential opportunities over the forecast timeframe.

On the other side, longer product lifecycle and lack of interoperability associated with the simulator is likely to hamper the growth over the estimated period from 2020 to 2027.

By Platform, Airborne segment accounted for the major share in the market

In 2019, the airborne segment accounted for the major share in the stimulators market. The segment is also projected to experience the fastest growth over the forecast period. The complexity and risk involved in aircraft operation before training is supporting the market value. The increasing demand and usage of new aircraft in the military is further supporting the growth over the forecast period.

By type, driving simulators are expected to register fastest growth over the estimated period

The driving simulators segment is expected to experience major CAGR over the forecast period from 2020 to 2027. The driving simulators can be used in cars, trucks, buses, trains & trams, and armored vehicles. The increasing demand for commercial vehicles across the globe is projected to create demand over the estimated period.
