Future Engine Orders to Propel Ignition System Demand is Driving the Middle East & Africa Aircraft Ignition System Market

With the surge in passenger traffic, aircraft production is likely to receive notable orders from major airliners. According to CAPA – Centre for Aviation, Airbus and Boeing are expected to deliver thousands of commercial aircraft by the end of 2022. Some of the major contracts and developments have taken place in recent years. For instance, in July 2021, Pratt & Whitney, a Raytheon Technologies business, announced to have received an order of more than 800 units of GTF engines from different customers. Out of these, AerCap had ordered GTF Engines for 80 Airbus A320neo Family Aircraft. Thus, the rising orders for aircraft engines and increasing in-service engine volume due to expanding fleet of aircraft are speculated to generate an opportunity for aftermarket overhaul replacement in the aircraft ignition system market across the region, thereby driving the Middle East & Africa aircraft ignition system market .
