The air traffic management market witnessed a sluggish growth during the first two quarters of 2020 due to the escalating spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. Strict measures undertaken for the containment of the virus have impacted the industry statistics of ATM systems on a large-scale. Market factors including a shortage of labor and raw materials have resulted in several problems in the development and design of new air traffic management solutions. This has created a wide gap in supply and demand, impacting industry statistics. Restrictions imposed on domestic and international travel have also impacted the air traffic management industry during the first two quarters of 2020.
The software segment is projected to witness high growth of around 3.5% CAGR through 2026 owing to rising technological innovation in air traffic management solutions. Technology providers are focusing on offering innovative solutions to enhance airport efficiency and allow smooth operations of the airlines, contributing to the growing market penetration.
In August 2019, Northrop Grumman received an assignment to deliver T6 radio to Airservices Australia. The radio is Internet Protocol (IP) capable Very High Frequency (VHF) ground to air equipment, which will be delivered to the region over the next five years. This assignment assisted the company to enhance its business operations.

The North America air traffic management market was around USD 2 billion in 2020 and is forecast to register high growth rate through 2027. Significant initiatives undertaken by the governments and airport authorities are supporting the regional market trends. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) with other regulatory bodies in the North American countries are responsible for supervising the operations of air traffic management across the region. These authorities focus on providing customers with improved facilities on account of increased air passenger demand.
The rapid increase in the frequency of flights offered by the airlines to cater to the rising demand for domestic and international passenger movement has increased the demand for air traffic management solutions at the airports. For instance, in 2018, FAA in the U.S. operated over 21 air route traffic centers and around 518 air traffic control towers, extending services to over 150 airliners. Air traffic administrations are investing in refining the infrastructure, proliferating the market representation in the country.
Manufacturers are primarily focusing on entering into partnerships and contracts to enhance their presence and provide enhanced services to end-users in the market. For example, in December 2020, Leonardo S.p.A. received a USD 224.7 million financing from the European Investment Bank to fund investments in technological development. This assisted the company to enhance its technological competency, proliferating the market outlook in 2020. Similarly, in September 2020, BAE Systems signed a contract with Aerion Supersonic to offer the flight control system for the company’s new AS2 supersonic jet. BAE Systems will plan, develop, and integrate the fly-by-wire flight control system, accelerating the market revenues.
Prominent players in this air traffic management market include Lockheed Martin Corporation, Raytheon Company, BAE Systems, Thales Group, Northrop Grumman Corporation, Honeywell International, Inc., and Leonardo S.p.A.
