AIRBUS SPACE AND DEFENCE

The development of the UAV Launcher project has been performed in a non-traditional way in only half a year in a close cooperation between Airbus, DLR, Geradts GmbH and SFL GmbH. It included concept, development and production of a UAV Launcher prototype for the A400M. #FCAS #A400M #UAV

As part of the Non-Traditional-Player Initiative Airbus has cooperated with “Smart Mobile Labs” to demonstrate the next generation of smart real-time video including interactive augmentation. For that purpose, Smart Mobile Labs has fully integrated its EVO video solution into the Airbus Taira framework and the corresponding Tactilon® Unified Subscriber Management solution. #Airbus

As part of the Non-Traditional-Player Initiative Airbus has partnered with “Cloud Ararat” and “Augmentaio” to develop a cloud-based drone operations management platform and Augmented Reality solution being able to simulate future FCAS elements not yet available physically. The combination of both approaches could in the future enable commanding and monitoring of real-life drone operations remotely, within an AR environment. #FCAS #Defence #Airbus

Defence Site Monitoring automatically monitors hundreds of sites worldwide and produces automatic detection reports. Learn more at oneatlas.airbus.com #Airbus #Space #OneAtlas

Now that 2020 is drawing to a close let's have a look back at our highlights during this unprecedented year. #Airbus #Defence #Space

The Belgian Air Force has taken delivery of its first of seven Airbus A400M military transport aircraft. The aircraft was handed over to the customer at the A400M Final Assembly Line in Seville (Spain) and subsequently performed its ferry flight to the 15 th Wing Air Transport in Melsbroek (Belgium), where the aircraft will be based. #A400M #Belgium #Aviation

The Non-Traditional-Player initiative consists of 14 projects across Germany and is specifically designed to support the FCAS ambition and execution of Airbus Defence and Space. By connecting internal capabilities with selected external technologies, partners and funds, we aim at “disrupting rather than evolving”, to overcome the limitations of traditional development processes in the defense business.

The SMART MRTT programme is developing, certifying and implementing Automatic Air-to-Air refuelling (A3R) capability as well as enhanced maintenance solutions for the A330 MRTT. The A3R system requires no additional equipment on the receiver and is intended to reduce air refuelling operator (ARO) workload, improve safety and optimise the rate of air-to-air refuelling (AAR) transfer in operational conditions to maximise aerial superiority. Once the A3R system is activated by the ARO, the Boom Flight Control System becomes fully automated and progresses to transfer fuel upon contact with the receiver. During this process, the ARO simply monitors the operation. In the event of an anomaly due to receiver stability deviations or malfunctions on the tanker, the A3R system is able to disconnect and/or clear the Boom away from the receiver safely. On the receiver end, pilots closing in to the tanker take visual cues from the automated Pilot Director Lights (PDL). This feature allows for more efficient operations, with smoother transitions and minimises time during the coupled state. The A3R development paves the way towards a fully autonomous aerial refuelling operation. https://www.airbus.com/defence/a330mrtt.html #Refuelling #A330MRTT #Airbus

The Multi-Domain Combat Cloud enables seamless collaboration across all domains. Future warfighting will require a far higher degree of automation for information management and integration of military services and branches throughout the whole Mission Cycle. The Multi-Domain Combat Cloud (MDCC) with its System of Systems design will be the strategic game- changer of future warfighting. It will enable collaborative combat between manned and unmanned assets as well as within and across all domains (Maritime, Air, Land, Space and Cyber). It will make military operations more efficient by faster and higher effectiveness, through data collection from multiple sources, from active and passive sensors. Actionable intelligence is reached through merging data utilising artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Steve est responsable d’exploitation en Alsace à Geudertheim. Farmstar lui permet de moduler sa dose d’azote dans sa parcelle. « Farmstar m’avait préconisé une impasse en azote sur le troisième apport, j’ai comparé avec une bande témoin et j’ai remarqué qu’il n’y avait pas différence de rendement ». « J’ai économisé environ 5 tonnes de nitrate sur mon exploitation ». Un grand merci à Steve Conrad pour nous avoir raconté son histoire avec Farmstar. Nous remercions également @ComptoirAgricole pour la réalisation de cette vidéo.

The Spanish National Institute for Aerospace Technology (INTA) has granted the Voyager Air-to-Air Refuelling (AAR) clearance for the A400M using the centreline hose and drogue system, known as the Fuselage Refuelling Unit (FRU). The Royal Air Force (RAF) is the only MRTT customer to make use of this system, which is used to refuel large probe-equipped aircraft such as the A400M or C295.

Whereas satellite imagery focuses on the “big picture”, providing models with a global coverage, airborne photography enables higher accuracy at centimetre level, generated locally. The geo-referenced 3D Models are captured with optical or thermal sensors by the Airbus airship. Watch the video to see the 3D Models and the valuable insights that are being generated with data processing capabilities.
