JUNE- 2020AEROSPACEDEFENSEREVIEW.COM6EditorialInspired by the innumerable possibilities laid out by emerging technologies, aerospace and defense (A&D) organisations have decided to explore the expanses for harboring resources to eradicate potential threats. To this end, A&D companies are stepping into 2020 with the motto of harnessing technologies such as AI, IoT, automation, 3D printing, and more to improve their operations and reduce costs. Today, a majority of the aerospace industry is witnessing an increased use of smart materials like carbon nanotubes and graphene, which prove to have several benefits and are cost-effective. Planes built using such materials are more efficient, lesser in weight, and also consume less fuel. Moreover, one of the issues that have long prevailed in the aerospace industry is fuel costs associated with maintaining operations. A&D manufacturers are looking to address this challenge by moving toward more fuel-efficient aircraft, with More-Electric Aircraft (MEA) being the first step.Alongside, scientists and leaders are also looking to reduce the complexities surrounding most aerospace processes. In light of this, the sector is witnessing an influx of investment in research and development (R&D) to come up with better and innovative technologies.Highlighting these new developments, this edition of Aerospace and Defense Review features a list of prime vendors that are at the top of their game, along with insightful articles from several thought leaders. We hope the valuable information and the innovative solutions from leading companies help you in effectively making informed decisions for your future endeavours.Let us know your thoughts!Fostering a New Era of A&D InnovationJonathan AllredManaging Editorjonathan@aerospacedefensereview.comCopyright © 2020 ValleyMedia Inc., All rights reserved.
