The German Federal Ministry of Defence | Bundesministerium der Verteidigung has submitted a request for 652 million euros ($697.18 million) to the parliament's budget committee to finance a hypersonic weapons development project with Norway. In mid-May, Norway's defence group KONGSBERG announced a partnership with Germany's Diehl Aviation and MBDA to develop a super-sonic missile known as 3SM Tyrfing. The HYPERMissile (TM) can reach Mach 25 and comes in 3 models. Further, HYPERMissile (TM) can be launched from air, land or sea and can be navigated using AI thereby optimizing precision targeting while delivering maximum payload. HYPERMissile (TM) is available and ready to go. #hyperfast #HYPERIANAerospace #airsupremacy https://hyperianaero.com/ #NGAD #hypersonic #airforce #usarmy #spaceforce #HYPERJet #HYPERMissile #HYPERBomber #HYPERLiner #hydrogen #aerospace #spaceflight #airsuperiority #NASA #BLACKSTAR

👏 Congrats to Lufthansa Group for the completion of the #SESAR #deployment project related to the 'Provision of EFPL data and initial FF-ICE/1 readiness'. The FF-ICE functionality was deployed allowing the filing of the eFPL (Extended Flight Plan) by the airline.     🛫 This implementation project contributes to the deployment of the #SESAR Deployment Programme Family 5.6.1 'Flight Information Exchange' by airspace users.    📈 This project is part of a bundle of projects and is expected to bring performance benefits in the areas of Predictability and Interoperability.    🌍 As Lufthansa Group airlines operate throughout the globe, the implementation of especially the FF-ICE eFPL is of paramount importance for the interoperability. Only the flight planning system is able to consider requirements and constraints globally and can therefore ensure that the effects of them are correctly reflected in the flight plan.      🎤 Lufthansa Group stated:  "With this project, we have taken a relevant step within the #digitalization of flight plan management. The update of the flight planning system to include among others 4D trajectory information and flight-specific performance data in the submission of eFPLs, enhances the planning and management of air traffic. This helps to increase operational efficiency – with positive effects on flight time and fuel consumption."     #SESARdelivers #AsOne #aviation #ATM #CP1 #EU      CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency     European Commission

At ILA Berlin - Pioneering Aerospace with Lucas Hässelbarth this week. very interesting review of the state of the industry in both aerospace and defense. it became clear yesterday that the industry struggles with a peak of high demand that is difficult to satisfy along with resources issues. almost all booths in defense and aerospace had a #weAreHiring corner giving access to direct talks about carrier in the industry. while the digital transformation is going full speed l, we could find out that critical qualified person is very hard to fine. There some companies are going very aggressively pursuing in house training and education, other are strongly reliant on external “people” suppliers. Another recurring theme , as Pression on tier one supplier , is increased efficiency in production, even if the most parts are produced with lot of one piece. In the space area, more education and political discussions ongoing. There we saw Alexander Gerst participating to an interesting discussion @space for earth and international collaboration. The ILA trade show is definitely worth visiting for all industry enthusiasts

Space Safety Industry Days at ESOC/ESA in Darmstadt, 28.11.2024. It felt like a family meeting, a quickly growing family... In my opinion, within ESA's Space Safety Program (#S2P) are one of the most useful/helpful missions - for mindkind (warning and protection from asteroids, e.g. #HERA, #RAMSES) - for the resilience of its economy and defence capabilities (non-dependent warning from hazardous sun outbursts which could damage or infrastructure in Earth and in space, e.g. #VIGIL) - all around #SpaceDebris (mitigation, removal, space traffic management, up to in-orbit measurement of small debris particles <1mm, e.g. via #SAILOR) and others within the #COSMIC program, - including managing its measures complying -> to the ESA regulation "maximum 5 years deorbit time" and -> to the - meanwhile international - #ZeroDebrisCharter. Not respecting the space debris issue means soon "GAME OVER" for us space industry and for mankind by no more daily use of space infrastructure. For the next CMin2025 a total budget of - in my view - 1 billion Euro for 3 years (should be 5-7% of total) would be well invested money...for European sovereignty and global mankind. Thank you very much, dear ESA Space Safety Office within the ESA Operations, Engineering & Space Safety Directorate for this very efficient event.

At AERO Drones in Friedrichshafen, a separate focus area up to and including Friday (19.04.), embedded into the AERO Friedrichshafen aviation trade show, everything is centered around #drones in public safety operations. UAV DACH is represented on site by board members Markus Rossol, Michael Wieland and Jan Schönberg. In line with the philosophy to "Inform | Network | Shape", they will be available as contacts for technical questions relating to commercial #UAS operations in general and the Association for #Unmanned #Aviation in particular and will be actively involved in the extensive conference program in Hall A2. This year's AERO Drones will once again be a meeting place for a wide variety of stakeholders from the drone economy. Current and future challenges for the UAS industry will be the subject of lively discussions in the aisles, in panel discussions and at the exhibitors' stands. The common interest: Finding solutions to the industry's most pressing problems in order to jointly shape a successful future for unmanned aviation.

Collaboration drives innovation in aviation: As part of a project lead by Airbus, we developed a high-performance hexapod that provides highly dynamic kinematic compensation technology for the aircraft construction. The focus of this new development is the contour processing of “Wing of Tomorrow” single-aisle wing shells by milling and deburring as well as their subsequent sealing and the insertion of drill holes. Combined with an articulated arm robot from MABI Robotic AG for rough positioning, PI's hexapod is used for fine positioning of machining and sealing tools. The hexapod can accelerate a payload of up to 40 kg in the X-Y plane at up to 12,000 mm/s² and is able to dynamically compensate for high-frequency path deviations under the influence of forces during milling. It is specifically optimized for time-critical production processes that meet the stringent tolerances required by the aviation industry. In addition to this high dynamic performance, the hexapod system offers fiber optic data transmission between the hexapod controller and driver electronics, a very short latency time when using the EtherCAT® interface and IP54-sealed components. 📌 https://lnkd.in/eBVHFaCS A project sponsored by Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, under the supervision of Projektträger Luftfahrtforschung. #kinematics #hexapod #aerospace

HENSOLDT, in collaboration with several key partners, has developed a compact and interference-resistant MIMO radar system for monitoring uncontrolled airspace. The German Aerospace Center (DLR) recently conducted flight tests using drones and a research helicopter to validate the system’s capabilities, marking the conclusion of the 'MIMO Air' project. This innovative radar system, designed to monitor urban airspace safely, leverages multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) technology, enhancing signal reception without increasing the radar sensor's physical size. The system serves as a navigation and landing aid while also warning of obstacles in real time, using artificial intelligence (AI) to adapt to changing environmental conditions. Maurice Tennigkeit, Project Manager for Airborne & Space Radars at HENSOLDT, emphasized the significance of this project as a milestone for the future integration of air taxis into German airspace. Key partners in the development and testing include the DLR, Fraunhofer FHR, Humatects - The Human-Machine Architects, and DFS Deutsche Flugsicherung GmbH.
