The military aircraft rubber tanks market was valued at US$ 376.12 million in 2019 and is projected to reach US$ 564.67 million by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2020 to 2027.
Military and defense sectors are heavily investing in advanced technologies to strengthen their capabilities with advanced war aircraft. Companies in countries such as Russia, the US, and France are developing advanced aircraft for the global market. New military aircraft such as Dassault Rafale, F-35, and Saab Gripen are dominating the fixed-wing aircraft demand. Rising trade agreements between major countries such as Russia-India, Russia-China, and US-UAE regarding advanced military aircraft are supporting the market growth. Developing nations such as India, China, and Indonesia are strengthening their military aircraft stock due to rising border clash with neighboring countries. The rubber-based self-sealing fuel tanks are necessary components in advanced military aircraft. Advancements in army machines such as increased bullet size have the importance using rubber in fuel tanks as it quickly prevents the leakages. Further, the growing need of flexible fuel tanks to enhance fuel storage capacity and utilize spaces in wings, pylons, etc., is augmenting the market growth. The manufacturing companies such Magam Safety Ltd and Fuel Safe Systems are introducing advanced solutions for end users; the new products provide protection against 30mm bullet penetration.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Military Aircraft Rubber Tanks Market
The COVID-19 pandemic situation has hampered the economic growth of almost every country. It has severely impacted the international transportation, which has had deeper effects on the commercial aircraft market. However, military aircraft industry has witnessed low impact of this downturn. Moreover, the hampered economic growth of countries has led to several months delay in the process of purchasing military aircraft. The military aerospace industry continued their operations with certain preventions set by the nation’s government but at slower speed. The lowered capacity of military aircraft manufacturers for a certain period hampered the production targets owing to lower staff availability on floor and restrictions such as physical distancing. In October 2020, Boeing, in its Q3 delivery report, stated decline in military aircraft deliveries by the count of 54 in September. Lower production rate of aircraft lowers the sale of associated components and technologies. This has hampered the military aircraft rubber tank market.
