In 2023, Italy imported approximately 20.8 thousand kilograms of aircraft launching gear, deck-arrestor for civil use. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady decline in import volume, decreasing from 20.38 to 18.78 thousand kilograms. This indicates a yearly negative variation of around 1-2%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year period is expected to be approximately -1.6%, suggesting a consistent downward trend in imports.
Future trends to watch for:
- Technological advancements in alternative launching and arrestor systems.
- Change in aviation industry regulations impacting demand.
