Digital Glass Military Aircraft Cockpit Systems Market CAGR | 3.6% |
Digital Glass Military Aircraft Cockpit Systems Market Size (2022) | US$ 524.41 million |
Digital Glass Military Aircraft Cockpit Systems Market Size (2032) | US$ 746.91 million |
A digital glass cockpit, also known as electronic flight information systems (EFIS) and cockpit display system (CDS), is an aircraft cockpit that consist digital flight instrument displays, generally large LCD screens, instead of conventional analog dials and gauges. A digital glass cockpit simplifies aircraft operations and navigation by enabling the usage of several displays driven by flight management systems, that can be adjusted (multi-function display) to display flight information as needed.
Advanced digital glass cockpit systems utilize LCD screens to display crucial flight information. Digital glass cockpit displays systems are based around primary flight displays (PFDs), engine indications and crew alerting system (EICAS) and multifunction displays (MFDs). This enables the replacement of mechanical flight instrument gauges with graphical representations of information from onboard and external sensors and navigation systems.
The digital glass cockpits are being increasingly adopted by military and defense along with airline companies, as they eliminate the need for a flight engineer, in turn reducing costs. In recent past, this digital glass cockpit has become widely available in small aircrafts too.

Since the glass cockpits use digital technology and present the readings in digits rather than on a traditional display, they are more accurate than their predecessors. The glass cockpit displays have small, energy- and space-efficient designs that make better use of many characteristics. This boosts the digital glass military aircraft cockpit systems market adoption trends.
The digital glass military aircraft cockpit systems produce a lot of data, which may be needed for regulatory purposes as well as the improvement of safety and operationally. As a result, digital cockpits are now required since so many systems interact with glass cockpit displays.
These elements played a part in the rise in demand for digital glass military aircraft cockpit systems upgrades for the fleet of current military aircraft, which escalates the sales of digital glass military aircraft cockpit systems on the whole.
As digitization increases and technology advances quickly, aircraft are developing futuristic designs and ergonomics. Glass displays have decreased clutter in the cockpit by precisely displaying digital values.
Traditional analog cockpits are more prone to display inaccuracies; however, glass displays have addressed this by providing accurate reading values. This strengthens digital glass military aircraft cockpit systems market trends.
Currently, the market for digital glass military aircraft cockpit systems is dominated by North America. Nevertheless, the region is anticipated to lose digital glass military aircraft cockpit systems market share to the Asia Pacific region throughout the projected period, mostly as a result of declining North American defense spending.
India, China, and Japan are anticipated to drive digital glass military aircraft cockpit systems market growth in the APAC region over the projection period. The market for digital glass military aircraft cockpit systems in Europe is expanding steadily, and several significant aircraft manufacturers are there.
The increased number of cockpit improvements to the current fleet of military aircraft and rising military spending have both contributed to considerable growth in the global digital glass military aircraft cockpit systems market throughout the forecast period.
Astronautics upgraded the L-100 in February 2022 with its Badger integrated flight display system, which offers an integrated glass cockpit with digital interfaces and displays, enhanced functionality, and additional safety features that provide information such as traffic, terrain, and weather. This system is designed to maximize crew situational awareness. Depending on customer needs, the Astronautics Badger integrated flight display system can enable its Night Vision Imaging System (NVIS)/Night Vision Goggles (NVG) functionality.

Digital glass cockpit systems, which were prevalent in the civil aviation sector, are being increasingly adopted among military aircraft operators, in order to add capabilities to their fleets. Along with facilitating reduction in information management workload for pilots coordinating large networks of sensors and platforms, digital glass cockpits offer advantages such as weight and power savings, enabling easier interaction with air traffic control, and enable faster training for new pilots.
The cockpits of both fixed and rotary-wing military aircraft are going digital. These glass cockpits facilitate the pilot's tasks throughout the flight, especially under difficult conditions, by improving access to vital information. The global market of digital glass military aircraft cockpit systems is mainly driven by the advantages offered by these systems over traditional cockpit systems. These advantages include the enhanced accuracy and precision of automation systems, and more ergonomic display of the data. These glass cockpits also comprise feedback loops and self-checking capabilities to alert the pilot about threats before they become emergencies. Additionally, these advanced system offers checklist of issues, the pilot can utilize to troubleshoot a problem and correct it immediately.
However, as the aircraft operations become increasingly dependent on digital glass cockpit systems, flight crews must be trained to deal with possible failures. In recent years, several incidents involving glass-cockpit blackout have occurred. Therefore, proper training is considered as one of the key components for reducing miss happenings of aircrafts equipped with digital glass cockpit systems.
To counter these blackouts, aircrafts with digital glass cockpit systems are provided with backup analogue displays for key flight instruments including airspeed indicator and altimeter.
Presently, North America is holds the majority share in the digital glass cockpit systems market. However, the region is expected to lose its share to Asia Pacific region during the forecast period, mainly due to falling defense expenditure in North America. In the APAC region, India, China and Japan are expected to lead the growth in the forecast period.
The major players active in the Global digital glass cockpit systems market include Honeywell Aerospace, GE Aviation, Garmin Ltd., Avidyne Corporation, MGL Avionics, Lockheed Martin, Elbit Systems Ltd., Esterline Technologies Corporation, Airbus Group SE and Rockwell Collins, Inc.
