Carbon disc brakes are efficient light weight alternative to traditional steel brakes as they provide significant saving in weight of the aircraft, thereby decreasing the fuel costs. One of the advantage of the carbon brakes are that they enable the feature of push backing without the use of aircraft engines. Moreover, these brakes have almost 50% higher tolerance to high temperature, as compared to traditional steel brakes. Additionally, these brakes helps in lowering the environmental pollution as they are designed to considerably reduce the greenhouse gas emission. Presently, key players are working with airlines and defense organizations to simplify retrofitting carbon brakes to existing aircraft through advanced manufacturing and engineering technologies.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON AIRCRAFT CARBON DISC BRAKE MARKET
The COVID-19 pandemic led to a huge decline in the growth of the global aviation industry due to the halt in aircraft production by major aircraft manufacturers. Furthermore, hindrances in the global supply chain decreased the demand for aircraft carbon disc brake. Notably, in 2020, prominent aircraft manufacturers, such as Boeing and Airbus, reduced their production forecasts by 50%. However, various key players in the aerospace industry started taking stringent measures to mitigate the steep fall in revenues and demand. For instance, Airbus has confirmed an average A320 Family production rate of 45 aircraft per month in Q4 2021 and has created a demand from suppliers to anticipate a firm rate of 64 by Q2 2023. Expecting a continued recovering market, Airbus is also asking suppliers to allow a rate of 70 by Q1 2024. Additionally, the requirement of Aircraft Carbon Disc Brake in the military aviation sector creates a stable demand in the market and is expected to stabilize the position of major players. Therefore, after bearing a drastic short-term negative impact, the global Aircraft Carbon Disc Brake market is expected to regain momentum owing to the retrofitting of brakes in existing aircraft and measures taken by manufacturers to curb the impact of the pandemic.
