Military aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul market worth nearly $50 billion

Aug. 7, 2014
LONDON, 7 Aug. 2014. Competition in the maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) market is increasing dramatically, as companies are hard pressed to make profits in a market ever more focused on performance and efficiencies, according to visiongain analysts. At the same, they say, aerospace technology is growing much more sophisticated, requiring MRO providers to make larger investments in the equipment and skills required to service next-generation aerospace platforms and components.

LONDON, 7 Aug. 2014. Competition in the maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) market is increasing dramatically, as companies are hard pressed to make profits in a market ever more focused on performance and efficiencies, according to visiongain analysts. At the same, they say, aerospace technology is growing much more sophisticated, requiring MRO providers to make larger investments in the equipment and skills required to service next-generation aerospace platforms and components.

The military aircraft MRO market exhibits robust and resilient market dynamics, which are tied to a greater extent to less volatile factors such as overall military aircraft fleet size, structure (the mix of aircraft types/classes operated), and flight hours; yet, as nations retire old models and acquire new replacements (or even expand their overall numbers), and as security threat levels change with consequent effects on readiness requirements, MRO spending can be significantly affected, visiongain analysts add.

Global military MRO spending, valued at $48.27 billion this year, is facing a turbulent and complex but positive decade ahead, in which quite a few MRO providers may unable to keep up, while more competent counterparts gain a greater share of this growing market, according to Visiongain.
