    Farnborough, July 14, 2014 ATR: 144 firm orders, new sales record for the first half of the year The aircraft manufacturer has also taken options for 112 additional aircraft At the Farnborough Airshow, the turboprop aircraft manufacturer ATR this morning announced that it has taken firm orders for 144 aircraft (119 ATR 72-600 and 25 ATR 42-600), with options for 112 additional aircraft, since the beginning of the year. This year's contracts, of which many will be revealed during the week of the show, represent a total value of over US$3.45 billion (US$6 billion including options). These sales represent 150% compared to the total sales for the year 2013. They will allow ATR to further strengthen its leading position on the market for regional aviation, and thus confirm the predominance of turboprop aircraft, and particularly those of ATR, over short distances. Sales for the first half of the year highlight the appeal of the ATR '-600's for regional companies and the leasing company community, attracted by the economic and environmental performance of the aircraft, their technical reliability and their high standard of comfort. This year, the ATR '-600's have also passed the symbolic mark of 500 firm orders since their launch at the end of 2007. ATR's backlog currently stands at 325 aircraft to be delivered in the coming years, a new record, representing a value of US$8 billion. On the back of this sales performance in the first half the year, ATR has increased its end of 2013 backlog by around 45%, seeing production ensured for almost 4 years.

Analysis of Models Applicable to USAN* Eduardo Munhoz Svartman Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil Anderson Matos Teixeira Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil The creation of the Union of South American Nations (USAN) aroused expectations about joint development and production of military aircraft in South America. However, political divergences, technological asymmetries and budgetary problems made projects canceled. Faced with the impasse, this article approaches features of two military aircraft development experiences and their links with the regionalization processes to extract elements that help to account for the problems faced by USAN. The processes of adoption of the F-104 and the Tornado in the 1950s and 1970s by countries that later joined the European Union are analyzed in a comparative perspective. The two projects are compared about the political and diplomatic implications (mutual trust, military capabilities and regionalization) and the economic implications (scale of production, value chains and industrial parks).

M-346 ITS design and development have been built around an innovative training paradigm where the Aircraft, the Ground Based Training Systems and the Interoperability functionality are strictly connected. Based on a number of developments and experiences, the user community is seeking to blur the boundaries to get more training value from an Interoperable System. Furthermore, the introduction of advanced Fighters (4th and 5th generation) implies a new Concept of Operations (CONOPS) of level of interoperability during training joint events. 1 M-346 Advanced Trainer Aircraft and LVC is definitively a System-of-System made by the Interoperability most modern system integration technologies and it is one of the core components of the ITS that includes real aircraft, simulators and additional training aids and The M-346 Advanced Trainer Aircraft has been ground/support stations. designed around the concept of interoperability, as a key factor in order to provide improved Teaching Besides, the M-346 ITS platform has been involved in Effectiveness capabilities compared to the other existing international Red Air missions achieving considerable trainer aircrafts, with the final aim to achieve the most success. cost effective training by downloading training tasks from 4th/5th generation combat aircraft. 2 M-346 ITS “Networked architecture design” starting from an advanced TNA Since the first design phases the Aermacchi M-346 has been considered not only as an aircraft but as a M-346 ITS was conceived around specific networked element of the Leonardo’s Integrated Requirements derived from a Training Need Analysis Training System (ITS); this also includes Ground Based (TNA) to fill the gap generated by new generation Training System (GBTS) and Mission Support Station combat aircraft.

    Aviation, Aerospace & Defense CHALLENGES FOR EUROPEAN AEROSPACE SUPPLIERS CONTENTS INTRODUCTION 3 MANAGING GROWTH AND NEW CHALLENGES 4 European aerospace suppliers’ challenges 5 DEVELOPING A ROBUST AND AGILE SUPPLY CHAIN 6 What should OEMs and suppliers do? 8 DEVELOPING THE FOOTPRINT 9 Extending the footprint to new geographies 9 Managing the footprint extension 9 BOOSTING INNOVATION 11 Development of composite materials 11 Toward 100 percent electric aircraft 12 Improving innovation and development performance 15 CONCLUSIONS 15 INTRODUCTION Airlines around the world are ordering new planes and demanding new technology. As a result, the global aerospace industry is growing and aerospace suppliers must become more innovative and flexible to keep up. The industry faces three main challenges in the next decade, according to a study conducted by Oliver Wyman of the European aerospace industry. Suppliers must: • Design and develop more complex parts and systems, with higher technology content, shorter lead times, and at a competitive cost • Extend their supply chain footprint to emerging markets • Upgrade production capabilities and share more financial and operational risks with original equipment manufacturers These challenges will have a direct impact on supply chain management, which thus must become more robust and agile. They also come at a time when the industry must deal with a number of exogenous issues. Market demand is growing continuously for both original equipment and spare parts, while airlines are asking for increasing diversity in aircraft models. The industry faces new competition from emerging countries, OEMs are creating an international supply base, and regulators are writing stronger environmental and noise rules for aircraft.
