Simulators Market Scenario


Simulators Market is projected to reach USD 29,100 Million by 2030 and register a CAGR of 4.31% during the forecast period. A simulator is a device that artificially recreates the controls and operation of a vehicle, aircraft, or other complex systems, and is used for training purposes. The growing demand for pilots across the globe and the need to reduce pilot training costs are expected to drive the growth of the market.


Market Synopsis


The Simulators Market is expected to register significant growth during the projected period owing to factors such as the growing adoption of virtual pilot training to ensure aviation safety and the development of simulators for air accident investigations. Additionally, increasing product launches by prominent companies are also expected to drive the growth of the market. For example, in 2017, Lockheed Martin Corporation launched a version of the flagship simulation software Prepar3D v4 that consisted of 64-bit systems to provide unparalleled realism. The Prepar3D features developments in a fully reformed user interface, which is used to train pilots for air, land, underwater, and space missions.


However, issues related to the lack of interoperability and long product lifecycle might hamper the growth of the Simulators Market.
