Come visit CAE’s booth (Hall C, Booth #C7) at Aero India 2011 to learn more about our comprehensive portfolio of simulation products and services. cae.com Word from the Editor Eight and ever exciting, Aero India this year hopefully echoes the metamorphic change of an economically resurgent Asia and the Indian subcontinent. The upsurge in the Indian defence spending continues unabated with the Indian Air Force (IAF) leading from the front. Be it the massive $80 billion (`3,60,000 crore) for its fighter aircraft programmes or tens of billions of dollars for each of its pro- grammes for helicopters, transports, weapon systems or force-multipliers et al, there is a huge market potential for the foreign vendors, as well as domestic suppliers—public and private. With a track record of seven successful air shows, Aero India is fast moving to don the mantle as the third largest air show in the world—after Farnborough and Paris Air Show—bringing together players in the global aerospace industry, big and small, to showcase their products and capabilities and to explore new opportunities for collaboration. February 9 to 13 holds promise of unravelling many significant and far-reaching deals and memoranda of understanding for the Indian defence establishment. With an over- all market potential running into over $100 billion (`4,50,000) in the next 10 years, cynosure of defence manufacturers across the globe, India plays host to more than 600 companies showcasing their products and services. At the forefront would be companies from the US and the UK, Russia, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Australia—to name a few. Led by none other than the ubiquitous Hindustan Aeronautics Limited, there is likely to be an upsurge in the Indian companies as well. One is likely to see the latest in military and civil aircraft, weapons and related equipment/systems and UAVs. For us at SP Guide Publications, as the official media partner of Aero India 2011, it is a matter of great pride to be associated with an aerospace event of this magnitude. The entire SP Guide team heartily congratulates the event organisers for their immense effort to make this show a resounding success and an unforgettable experience. Let the curtain be raised!

Costel GAVRILA Ministry of National Defense /Romania Abstract The Strategic airlift has been a long-standing critical shortfall for the NATO Alliance. At the Riga summit, NATO Heads of State and Governments noted the need for “forces that are fully deployable, sustainable and interoperable and the means to deploy them.” They also endorsed several initiatives to increase strategic airlift, including the SAC, the Strategic Airlift Interim Solution (SALIS), and offers to coordinate support structures for A-400M strategic airlift, which seven allies are planning to acquire beginning in 2010.

Introduction The Strategic airlift has been a long-standing critical shortfall for the NATO Alliance. At the Riga summit, NATO Heads of State and Governments noted the need for “forces that are fully deployable, sustainable and interoperable and the means to deploy them.” They also endorsed several initiatives to increase strategic airlift, including the SAC, the Strategic Airlift Interim Solution (SALIS), and offers to coordinate support structures for A-400M strategic airlift, which seven allies are planning to acquire beginning in 2010. All these initiatives are now encompassed by a new concept developed at Chicago Summit in May 2012 – Smart Defence. The term Smart Defence was coined by the current NATO Secretary General, and he has invested a lot of personnel and political capital to developing it.

  • Safran's Philippe Petitcolin. Safran Is Easily Europe Rsquo
    50SKYSHADESImage not found or type unknown- aviation news SAFRAN'S PHILIPPE PETITCOLIN News / Personalities Image not found or type unknown © 2015-2021 50SKYSHADES.COM — Reproduction, copying, or redistribution for commercial purposes is prohibited. 1 Safran is easily Europe’s most diversified aerospace company, with a range of businesses covering airliner, helicopter and space rocket engines to security detection systems, and landing gear to unmanned air vehicles. However a year into the top job, chief executive Philippe Petitcolin is keen to slim down the partially state-owned group’s sprawling portfolio, divesting non-core subsidiaries in security, and using the proceeds – as well as revenues from Safran’s stake in the booming CFM International – to invest in enterprises in aerospace equipment that “fit our DNA”. At the same time – a decade after Safran came into existence with the merger of French household names Snecma and Sagem – he wants to create a group identity by rebranding its many operating companies. This will see some of the biggest names in aerospace, such as Snecma, Turbomeca, Labinal and Messier-Bugatti-Dowty, begin to disappear later this year. “We are 10 years old as a company and it is time to act and think as one Safran,” says Petitcolin, a 28- year veteran of the group, who previously ran engine maker Snecma and wiring specialist Labinal. Relentless demand for commercial aircraft means Safran’s aerospace propulsion business continues to dominate its revenues. Safran and General Electric each own 50% of 40-year-old joint venture CFM International, whose CFM56 has a roughly three-quarter share of the narrowbody market, powering Boeing 737s and its 737 Max successor, and about half of all Airbus A320 and A320neo family jets.
