The global demand for Firefighting Aircraft Market is presumed to reach the market size of nearly USD 798.41 MN by 2030 from USD 474.91 MN in 2022 with a CAGR of 6.71% under the study period 2023 - 2030.
Firefighting aircraft are specifically constructed aircraft that utilise water bombing and water sprinklers to extinguish unmanageable fires. These planes are meant to hold a large volume of water containing a fire retardant chemical during flight and disperse it at certain spots to keep the fire from spreading. These planes carry chemical or fire retardants that are delivered at specific locations at the touch of a button to put out wildfires.
Market Dynamics
Increased forest and industrial fire events in various regions have prompted aircraft manufacturers to design and introduce improved firefighting aircraft to combat such incidents, resulting in market expansion worldwide. Furthermore, as technology advances and the demand for more efficient aircraft grows, firefighter aircraft manufacturers have designed and altered existing aeroplanes and helicopters to be used as firefighting aircraft, bolstering the market growth. Moreover, factors such as the employment of general aviation aircraft to extinguish wildfires and an increase in fire-related accidents in the oil and gas industry contribute to market growth by raising demand for efficient firefighting aircraft. Additionally, contracting and agreeing to long-term business prospects, and using new technologies to put out fires, are likely to provide substantial growth prospects for the market. However, the market's expansion is hampered by delayed aircraft deliveries and expensive capital requirements.
