An inner wall for a self-sealing fuel tank in which the inner wall is provided with a plurality of fronds bonded at one end to the wall, the fronds facing towards the inside of the tank such that on penetration of the wall of the tank by a projectile the fronds are carried by the surge of escaping fuel through the wall to become entangled in the hole and choke off escaping fuel.
