We are at a historic turning point for global security. As Europe strengthens its strategic autonomy, the first Airbus Defence Summit in Manching, Germany, set out a plan for a safer future. Given the transformation of warfare, Europe will require the full range of its air defence capabilities, including fighter jets, transport aircraft, helicopters, uncrewed aerial systems, cyber technology and satellites.
The Airbus Defence Summit brought together political representatives, academics, journalists and content creators to explore how defence is evolving through groundbreaking technology, scale and cooperation. The event included live demonstrations of state-of-the-art connectivity.
