The Lightweight Advantage in Defense Applications

Lightweighting:
Significant weight savings, ~36% less than aluminum standard
Fuel/Range Efficiency:
In aircraft and missiles, lighter weight means lower fuel consumption and increased operational range or payload capacity
Performance:
Enables design of next-generation aircraft & missiles requiring advanced materials systems to meet stringent performance & safety standards
Vibration Damping:
Exceptional capacity to absorb vibrations, crucial for reducing noise and wear in military vehicle systems and aircraft/helicopter components
Thermal Management:
High thermal conductivity is vital for heat dissipation in engine components and sensitive electronic enclosures

Magnesium Volume by Platform (lbs)

Magnesium is a critical strategic material for U.S., Canadian, and allied defense forces — the lightest of all commonly used structural metals, delivering a superior strength-to-weight ratio that outperforms both aluminum and steel.

From the 1,500 lbs required in a single C-17 heavy transport aircraft to the precision components in F-35 fighters and Stryker armored vehicles, magnesium is indispensable for maximizing platform performance, fuel efficiency, and operational range across every tier of modern military capability.
