Provided is a pneumatic radial tire for an aircraft including a bead core, a radial carcass and a stiffener, the radial carcass including one or more turn-up plies and one or more down plies, wherein in tire axial direction cross-sectional view, when an intersection point of a virtual circle with a ply closest to a tire axial direction inner side of the stiffener among the plies intersecting with the virtual circle having a radius that is twice as large as a diameter D of the bead core from a center O of the bead core is a point A, an intersection point of the virtual circle with a ply closest to a tire axial direction outer side of the stiffener is a point B, and a midpoint between the point A and the point B is a reference point C, then a line segment OC connecting the center O of the bead core to the reference point C has an inclination angle θ of 17° or less to a tire radial direction line passing the center O of the bead core on the tire axial direction outer side.
