Steady Expansion of the Commercial Helicopters Market Value

It is projected to increase from $39.51 billion in 2025 to $40.9 billion in 2026, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.5%. This upward trend during the historic period has been driven by rising demand for passenger and cargo transportation via helicopters, growing utility operations such as patrol, forestry, and aerial photography, and the broader adoption of helicopters for accessibility in urban and remote areas.
