Connected Aircraft Market Drivers

Growth of Big Data Analytics:

With the adoption of big data analytics, manufacturing intelligence software can monitor the ground control in the aircraft infrastructure, which enables the users to better understand the proper working condition of machines and also help in improving the overall resource effectiveness and efficiency. The integration of Big Data with the help in identifying, analyzing, and mitigating the issues and faults in the aircraft unit that could decrease the aircraft downtime. Furthermore the emergence of Big Data is projected to play a major role in the development of the connected aircrafts that can help in maintenance crew spot issues and repair proactively.

Advancement of the military sector:

The defense industry demands ever increasing functionality in space-based equipment such as satellites, probes, and military weaponry. Also, as high altitude and low earth orbit aircraft become increasingly reliant on sophisticated electronics, the demand for connected aircraft increase. The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) is planning to invest up to $170 million in foundry company SkyWater Technology for a multi-phase project to enhance microelectronics capabilities for the DoD. This is set to drive the adoption of advanced connected aircrafts. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) of America has started the research on the implementation and designing of connected aircrafts for determining the test methods for system-specific problems.

Connected Aircraft Market Challenges:

Cyber Threats in Aviation Industry challenges

Generally the emergence of IoT and connected technologies had lead to the increase in cyber attacks resulting in the massive number of flight delays and terrorist attacks.
