Have you ever wondered how a Eurofighter is built? It takes a total of 14 steps to finish a EurofighterTyphoon. The Eurofighter is European through and through with different parts coming from the partner companies that make up the so called Eurofighter consortium: Airbus in Germany and Spain, BAE Systems in the UK, and Leonardo in Italy. Depending on the the customer, the figher jets are then assembled at the Final Assembly Line in the respective country before undergoing rigorous testing to ensure that they are safe, and ready for the most demanding missions.

Rolls-Royce Defence sits at the centre of the UK's defence, aviation and aerospace ecosystem, at the forefront of cutting-edge technological innovation, requiring access to the newest and best research partners and suppliers from across the world. Bringing new technologies into this highly regulated environment was previously very complex and required the highest levels of quality and safety. Adding to this complexity were the existing innovation scouting processes, which were time-consuming and carried a heavy administrative strain for innovation staff. Our platform's unique ability to search over 357m businesses, by capability, allowed us to help Rolls-Royce easily explore, filter and qualify suitable sectors and suppliers.

The flexibility of the combination of our Core Fuselage design, coupled with Digital Enterprise and Open System Avionics (AERSYSTEM™) and our on-demand Flexible Aircraft As A Service (AERFLEX™) business model resonated well with audiences who clearly shared concerns about the affordability of essential future air force capabilities. Interestingly, questions focused on the degree to which customers could tailor and modify the AERALIS system – to their preference of sovereign mission systems and engines for instance. The way in which our digital design and open system avionics can accommodate such flexibility very much impressed. “Once visitors understood the AERALIS concept, I was surprised at the sense of relief I could perceive in them; that future defence aviation could and can be affordable, capable and flexible. It made them impatient for our first flight!” #wds2024 #defence

How does defence support the UK supply chain? The JEDHub Annual Economic Report 2024 showed for every £1 spent by the surveyed companies, 70p was spent with UK suppliers to produce defence goods and services reinforcing a robust supply chain that powers innovation. ✳ The JEDHub Survey 2024 is now live, and invited defence companies can take part in the conversation to shape the 2025 report. Airbus Defence and Space, Atkins, Babcock International Group, Boeing, General Dynamics, GKN Aerospace, Leonardo, MBDA, Parker Meggitt, QinetiQ, Raytheon, Rolls-Royce, Spirit AeroSystems, Thales and Ultra Dynamics.

With product innovation flourishing in the aerospace and defence sector, manufacturers could be forgiven for innovating first and thinking about whether their value chain is capable of bringing it to market later. Yet taking this approach could be selling themselves short and repeating mistakes of the past. In our latest insight, Director Paul Adams discusses the risks and challenges involved in taking innovative aerospace and defence products to market.
