Semiconductor shortages reduce projected avionics CAGR by 1.2% through 2034

Aircraft Avionics Market 2025 to 2032: Semiconductor Supply Chains, Platform Recapitalisation and the Global Race for Certified Avionics →

What Changed

Long semiconductor qualification cycles and persistent supply shortages are actively dragging down aircraft avionics market growth projections. High-performance microprocessors, SoCs, and wide-bandgap semiconductors remain major supply chain choke points. Consequently, the anticipated medium-term industry CAGR has been lowered by an estimated 1.2%.
