Defense Aircraft Materials Market Size & Share Analysis - Growth Trends & Forecasts (2024 - 2029)

Defense Aircraft Materials Industry Overview

AMG Advanced Metallurgical Group N.V., Solvay SA, Constellium SE, Hexcel Corporation, and Toray Industries Inc., are some of the major players offering aircraft materials to defense aircraft manufacturers across the world. The rapidly evolving aerospace industry calls for a solid supply chain, where transparency and traceability are of paramount importance, especially since the aircraft OEMs face mounting market pressures to increase production rates through continuous improvement and automation while keeping an eye on sustainability and energy/cost efficiency. Thus, a reliable, standardized production process and consistent data capture throughout the production cycle are crucial to ensure repeatability, while ensuring the quality of the finished materials. However, the regional market is consolidated, as strategic collaborations have become frequent. The stringent safety and regulatory policies in the defense sector are expected to restrict the entry of new players. Nevertheless, the growth in the focus on indigenous production of aircraft and localization of supply chains is expected to increase the number of players in the market.
