Research infrastructure
Harnessing our expertise, we advance new systems, components and propulsion technologies. We develop and operate large-scale, world-class research facilities – including realistic infrastructures for validating solutions developed virtually and in living labs. Our research fleet, ground infrastructure and know-how benefit organisations in Germany and around the world. Together with industry, policymakers and other research institutions, we develop solutions to make aviation safe, competitive and sustainable.
