Firetrace Aerospace is a leader in fire suppression systems for military vehicles and aircraft. Firetrace Aerospace is the sole provider of the innovative FIRE Panel fuel tank fire suppression systems to the US military. This patented technology is the only solution to pass RPG, IED and EFP live fire testing for the U.S. Military, including MRAP, and is currently fielded on thousands of in-theatre vehicles.
Firetrace Aerospace also produces an innovative line of automatic non-electric fire suppression systems utilizing our proprietary pneumatic tubing. These systems are ideal for tire and engine fire protection. These field-proven systems are optimal for providing reliable fire detection in the harshest conditions.
Firetrace Aerospace was formed to make the commercially developed products invented and produced by its sister companies, Firetrace and FIRE Panel, available to the defense and aerospace industries. With more than 40,000 square feet of production, along with a full staff of design engineers and a dedicated production team, Firetrace Aerospace is capable of meeting and exceeding your critical requirements.
