Airbus Defence and Space’s Post

Innovating with Suppliers – aiming at new solutions for Connectivity, Maritime and Critical communications. On Sept 21st, Airbus Defence and Space hosted its first Co-Innovation challenge event, 3 challenges were set with a clear aim: to come up with concrete and world-changing solutions that will serve our customers and market needs.  More than 50 new suppliers per challenge were screened and, following a thorough assessment, we are pleased to announce two successful challengers, Artic Space (category “Secure Communications”) and GSTS (category “Maritime”), as well as a special kudo to Plextek (category “Secure Land Communications”) for their expertise and capability.  Congratulations and many thanks to all who took part in this powerful initiative to get impressive and high quality solutions from new players. You all showed the power of innovating together! Airbus Defence and Space - Intelligence Airbus Secure Communications Airbus / Secure Land Communications

How about sticking a tesla motor on the backend of a TP400-D6 prop gearbox? Free torque for little weight and could be powered by already installed generator! Make the blade smaller and it may fit other roles too.
