The non-destructive testing (NDT) in the aerospace and defense market size is expected to expand at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to increased investments in the aerospace and defense sector, increasing complexity of machines and structures that require continuous evaluation for structural integrity, and government safety regulations mandating the use of NDT techniques for gaining clearances.
Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a very effective method of detecting even the tiniest flaws or damage in aerospace materials or components during their operating life without compromising the integrity of the object being evaluated. Non-destructive testing in the aerospace industry can be used to identify flaws such as material thickness, welding flaws, bondline flaws, delamination, wrinkles, porosity, dry regions, foreign objects, fractures, and corrosion.
In the aerospace industry, NDT testing is crucial since the goods produced actually put lives on the line every day; high precision quality is essential. X-R-I Testing frequently delivers quick and dependable non-destructive testing and inspection services throughout the aerospace sector. As aerospace components are designed to be as light as feasible while fulfilling their function, NDT testing is an important element of the process. These components' responsibilities are frequently connected with large loads, and even a little defect can lead to full failure if not detected, putting lives at risk.
The COVID-19 pandemic affected the demand and supply of non-destructive testing (NDT) in the aerospace and defense market. Lockdown across the globe, supply chain disorders, and oscillating supply of raw materials forced manufacturers to shut down production leading to unfortunate decline in market growth. Launch of vaccines to combat the Covid-19 pandemic is expected to contribute to the market growth over the forecast period.
Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities
- Increasing investments in aerospace and defense sector is anticipated to propel the market during the forecast period.
- Government safety rules requiring the use of NDT techniques for acquiring clearances, as well as the increasing complexity of equipment and structures that require continuous examination for structural integrity are estimated to fuel the market.
- High cost of product is projected to hamper the market growth.
- Lack of skilled labor act as main challenge that can hinder the market expansion in the coming years.
- Large-scale aerospace projects in the Asia-Pacific and European regions, as well as a rising demand for sophisticated and automated NDT solutions are estimated to create lucrative opportunities for the market players.

Non-destructive Testing (NDT) in the Aerospace and Defense Market Segment Insights
The radiography testing is projected to hold a major market share
Based on technology, the market is bifurcated into rradiography ttesting and uultrasonic ttesting. The radiography segment is expected to represent a key share of the market during the forecast period. Radiography is one of the many non-destructive testing procedures that may be used to identify surface and subsurface characteristics in welded components and castings.
Radiography uses penetrating X-rays from an X-ray tube, gamma rays from a radioactive isotope, and other kinds of radiation to test products without harming them.
It is used for corrosion mapping, detecting blockages within sealed equipment, inspecting semiconductor devices for cracks, broken wires, and unsoldered connections, detecting reinforcing material in concrete slabs, and determining bulk density. When compared to alternative testing methods, computed radiography delivers considerable cost savings in the aerospace and defense industries since it removes external expenditures.
The service segment is expected to expand at a rapid pace
In terms of types, the non-destructive testing (NDT) in the aerospace and defense market is bifurcated into service and equipment. The service segment is expected to represent a key share of the market during the forecast period. End-users are increasingly outsourcing their non-destructive testing activities to third-party service providers as a result of stringent government restrictions regulating workplace safety.
Factor restricting new non-destructive testing equipment installations throughout the world is a scarcity of experienced workers who can do non-destructive testing.
Europe is expected to dominate the market
On the basis of geography, the market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. The market of Europe is anticipated to dominate the market during the forecast period. The Europe is anticipated to dominate the market. In 2016, the aerospace industrial output in the United Kingdom increased by 39% from 2011, with an annual turnover of almost USD 43 billion.
Exports of over USD 37.41 billion were reached in 2016, and the sector aimed for success in global markets to fuel additional growth, with few uncertainties predicted with the UK's withdrawal from the European Union. The United Kingdom is investing in the new Joint Force 2025, which is anticipated to include a land force of 112,000 troops equipped with digital armored vehicles.
