Segment Analysis
United States Industry Overview
Projected the next five years into 2021, industry revenue is forecast to rise at an annualized rate of 2.8% to $243.5 billion. Global and domestic demand for commercial aircraft will continue to drive revenue growth. Moreover, the defense industry is anticipated to pick up as production of key industry platforms such as the F-35 pick up.
Demand from Air Transportation
When demand for air transport increases, so does the need for more aircraft. Additionally, air transport operators may wish to increase their competitive edge by purchasing newer, more fuel-efficient models: a strategy that also increases demand for manufacturers.
Federal Funding for Defense
A significant portion of the industry’s aircraft, engines, and parts are used for military purposes. Therefore, public expenditure on defense and military vehicles indicates demand for these products. When military spending rises, a portion of that increase typically goes toward industry products.
