About Military Aerial Refueling Tanker
Military aerial refueling (also called air-to-air refueling) is the process of pumping aviation fuel from a military tanker to another military air platform during the flight. This process allows the receiving aircraft to remain airborne for a longer duration, supplementing the mission effectiveness. Owing to the growing investments in developing long-range aircraft, the importance of maintaining sturdy fleets of aerial refueling tankers has revived its importance among the defense ministries of many countries across the globe.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global military aerial refueling tanker market to grow at a CAGR of 7.83% during the period 2017-2021.
