What Will the Military Engine Infrared Suppression Industry Market Size Be by 2025?
The market size of military engine infrared suppression has experienced substantial growth lately. It is projected to increase from $1.31 billion in 2024 to about $1.42 billion in 2025, recording a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The significant growth during the past period is linked to several factors such as the escalating risks associated with asymmetrical warfare and insurgency threats, the growing trend of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) usage, augmented demand for multi-purpose combat aircraft, increased attention to decrease aircraft detection in enemy territories, and increased governmental initiatives encouraging domestic defense production.

What's the Long-Term Growth Forecast for the Military Engine Infrared Suppression Market Size Through 2029?
Anticipated robust growth in the military engine infrared suppression market size in the forthcoming years will see it expand to a value of $1.93 billion by 2029, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The significant growth during the projected period can be credited to a rising need for stealth capabilities, an escalating adoption of advanced military fighter jets and helicopters, intensified focus on survivability and operational safety, increased modernization of armed forces, and an expanding defense budget. Foreseen trends within the predicted duration include progress in artificial intelligence-driven target recognition, the creation of lightweight high-resolution infrared sensors, advancements in multispectral and hyperspectral imaging, development in the integration of infrared suppression with autonomous vehicles, and the formulation of eco-friendly and low-power infrared materials.

What Are the Key Growth Drivers Fueling the Military Engine Infrared Suppression Market Expansion?
The growth of the military engine infrared suppression market is predicted to be fueled by the escalating use of military unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). These UAVs, guided by remote control or autonomous systems and void of human pilots on board, are often utilized in high-risk tasks where human involvement is minimal or dangerous. Infrared suppression of military engines enhances the survival of UAVs by lowering their engine heat signatures, rendering them less noticeable to thermal sensors and infrared-guided missiles. For example, the International Trade Administration, a US government agency, forecasted in May 2024 that the worldwide quantity of commercially employed drones would see an ascent of 40% between 2022 and 2030. Hence, the increasing usage of military UAVs is propelling the expansion of the military engine infrared suppression market. The military engine infrared suppression (IRSS) market is also expected to get a boost due to the growing global defense budgets and subsequent funding for the development and deployment of sophisticated IRSS. This comes in response to increased geopolitical unrest, leading countries to allot more money to enhance their military aptitude and ensure national safety against regional disputes or global menaces. Increased defense budgets enable governments to invest in cutting-edge technology, thus modernizing military vehicles and aircraft with systems that lower engine heat signatures and maximize defense against infrared-guided risks. Rising geopolitical tensions and regional clashes have instigated several countries to direct more finances towards the research, development, and deployment of IRSS solutions. In April 2024, as per the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), an independent global security resource based in Sweden, the total worldwide military spending amounted to $2,443 billion in 2023, marking a real term increase of 6.8% from 2022. Hence, the growing defense budgets are fostering the expansion of the military engine infrared suppression market.

What Are the Key Trends Driving Military Engine Infrared Suppression Market Growth?
Leading firms in the military engine infrared suppression market are concentrating on the creation of novel solutions such as infrared signature suppression to bolster aircraft survival and minimize exposure to heat-detecting threats. Infrared signature suppression involves the use of technologies and systems designed to diminish the heat emissions of a military engine or vehicle, thereby making it less noticeable to infrared sensors and heat-seeking missiles. For example, in July 2025, the first flight of the UK Chinook Mk 6, a heavy-lift, tandem-rotor helicopter based in the UK, was completed with a sophisticated infrared suppression system (IRSS) installed. This system was designed to lower the helicopter's infrared signature and improve its resilience to heat-seeking missiles. By using extended exhaust mounts to cool and scatter engine heat, the system drastically reduces the thermal footprint detected by these missiles. This greatly improves the survival chances of the helicopter and the safety of its crew in hostile situations. This upgrade guarantees that the Chinook remains an efficient and sturdy resource for transport and tactical missions in modern, high-risk combat zones.
