Why settle for 1 when you can have 2! Thanks to Armée de l’air et de l’espace and the Royal Air Force (RAF) for showcasing the #A400M at Dubai Airshow 2025. #DAS25

Our commitment to continuous capability enhancement for the #A400M is crucial for global flexibility. 🛠️ In our latest flight test campaign in Altengrabow, Germany, together with the German Armed Forces, the A400M proved its ability to land extended payloads on challenging, soft grass runways. Once certified, this enhancement will significantly strengthen the aircraft’s mission flexibility, from critical special operations to vital humanitarian missions. 🎯 This will enable the rapid delivery of aid closer to the point of need — a necessity that is absolutely vital in disaster relief scenarios. 📦 Learn about the precision, collaboration with the German Armed Forces 🤝, and advanced technology —including the "PlayStation-like" flight control system— that made this testing a success: https://lnkd.in/dy4rhN2W

The #Airbus International Training Centre (ITC), the largest private military training centre in Europe, is celebrating its 15th anniversary! 🥳 Located in Seville 🇪🇸, the ITC has achieved a major milestone, reinforcing its global leadership in defence crew training 💻. Over the past 15 years, more than 20,000 professionals, including all types of profiles involved in the operation and maintenance of military aircraft ✈️, have been trained for the strategic and tactical fleets: #A400M, #A330MRTT, #C295, and #CN235. The centre has provided instruction for 90 international operators 🌍 , with around 2,500 people trained each year 🧑✈️. The ITC operates five Full Flight Simulators (FFS), where the maximum level of realism ensures that one hour of flight time in a FFS is equivalent to one hour in a real aircraft.

The Airbus-built Sentinel-6B climate satellite has taken to the skies, launching from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.🚀 This is the second of two identical Copernicus satellites 🛰️ built to continue monitoring our oceans until at least 2030. For the first year in orbit, Sentinel-6B will work with its predecessor Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich. Both radar satellites will collaborate to collect highly accurate data on global sea levels.🌊 Data continuity is vital for insights supporting climate action. Sea level monitoring is fundamental for ocean weather forecasting so that coastal countries can be warned of potential dangers. Find out more here: https://lnkd.in/eFcbdaXQ

#InformationWarfare is not merely about spreading false content — it's a coordinated, strategic campaign that requires a united, technological response. We at Airbus Defence and Space are proud to be coordinating the #EUCINF project (European Cyber and INFormation warfare toolbox), an initiative funded by the #EUDefenceFund (EDF). This project brings together the digital expertise of 22 companies from 12 countries, laying the groundwork for a powerful, flexible, and interoperable defence framework for the EU. The goal is clear: provide next-generation capabilities to defend us against disinformation and safeguard democratic institutions.

🇪🇸 A major milestone for Spain's Search and Rescue (SAR) capabilities as the first of 8 Airbus #C295 SAR aircraft for the Ejército del Aire y del Espacio completed its industrial first flight in Seville! ✈️ The initial test focused on flight systems, paving the way for further trials, including mission system checks, before the final delivery is planned for 2026. The new C295 SAR, which will replace the CN235 VIGMA fleet, will be operated by the 46th Wing at Gando Air Base in the Canary Islands. Assembled in Seville, the C295 is the undisputed leader in its segment with more than 310 orders from all over the world.
