The rising production of aircraft is expected to drive growth in the aerospace and defense fluid conveyance systems market in the coming years. Aircraft include any flying vehicles such as airplanes, helicopters, drones, and gliders. The increase in aircraft production is fueled by growing global demand for air travel, supported by expanding middle-class populations and tourism. Aerospace and defense fluid conveyance systems play a vital role by transporting and managing essential fluids like fuel, hydraulics, and coolant, which are critical for propulsion, control, and environmental functions of aircraft. For example, in January 2024, Aircraft Interiors International, a UK-based media company, reported that aircraft orders surged by 91% in 2023 compared to 2022, driven by a 78% increase in single-aisle aircraft orders and a 169% rise in widebody aircraft orders. Additionally, new aircraft deliveries reached 1,265 units in 2023, reflecting an 11% year-over-year increase. Thus, the growing production of aircraft is contributing to the expansion of the aerospace and defense fluid conveyance systems market.

The increase in defense spending is also expected to propel growth in the aerospace and defense fluid conveyance systems market going forward. Defense expenditure represents the total financial resources that governments allocate annually for maintaining and developing their armed forces. Rising geopolitical tensions have prompted nations to invest more heavily in strengthening military capabilities and readiness. This increased defense budget fuels demand for advanced aerospace and defense fluid conveyance systems by supporting the production and modernization of military aircraft, missiles, and space systems that depend on precise fluid transfer for optimal performance and reliability. For instance, in April 2024, the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), a Sweden-based research institute, reported that global military spending totaled $2.44 trillion in 2023, representing a 6.8% real-term increase compared to 2022. Therefore, higher defense expenditure is driving growth in the aerospace and defense fluid conveyance systems market.
