JENSEN BEACH, Fla. (November 13, 2025) — Tank Tigers, an STS Aviation Group Company (STS), has been selected by Jetaire Group as the preferred global installer of INVICTA™, the FAA-certified alternative to OEM nitrogen-generating systems for late-life Airbus and Boeing aircraft.
INVICTA™ employs a proprietary reticulated polyurethane foam technology that disrupts the fire triangle, mitigating the risk of fuel tank ignition. This solution provides operators and lessors with a proven, cost-effective method of compliance ahead of the 2026 global deadline under the Fuel Tank Flammability Reduction (FTFR) rule.
Through its partnership with Jetaire Group, Tank Tigers has already completed nearly 50 INVICTA™ installations across Airbus and Boeing single and twin-aisle aircraft. The expanded commercial agreement between Jetaire Group and STS strengthens both companies’ ability to meet rising demand and ensure operators achieve compliance efficiently and on schedule.
“As the mandatory modification deadline approaches, our priority is ensuring that operators and lessors have a proven, certified alternative to nitrogen-generating systems,” said Michael Williams, CEO of Jetaire Group. “STS Aviation Group and the Tank Tigers team have been instrumental in executing installations with precision and efficiency, giving customers the confidence that their aircraft will achieve compliance on time.”
“Our expanded relationship with Jetaire underscores the success and reliability of the INVICTA™ program,” said Craig Rose, Vice President & General Manager for Tank Tigers, an STS Aviation Group Company. “Together, we’re providing operators with a streamlined path to compliance that minimizes downtime and delivers lasting safety and performance benefits.”
Certified by the FAA, EASA, ANAC, and AFAC, INVICTA™ delivers a maintenance-free, installation-efficient, and cost-effective solution for compliance with FAR 25.981 and FAR 121.1117 requirements.
Approved Aircraft Platforms Include:
- Airbus A320 and A330 families
- Boeing 737, 757, and 767 series
