Technology Profile:

Incorporated in July 2000, EADS results from the merger of Aerospatiale (France), DASA (Germany) and CASA (Spain). It is the largest European aerospace manufacturer and a recognized leader in almost every sector of its operations.

AIRCRAFT: EADS is a major participant in the design and production of many of the worlds best and most advanced commercial and military aircraft.

AIRLIFT: The A400M is the only aircraft that provides both tactical and strategic capabilities. Current military aircraft are either too small or too costly and limited in operational versatility. The A400M delivers all CF Armoured vehicles ready for action. It can take two Griffon helicopters. It delivers big humanitarian (DART) loads fast, over intercontinental distances. It is designed for autonomous operation on unprepared landing strips. It is equipped, as standard, as an air-to-air refueller for both fast jets and helicopters. It delivers twice the payload or twice the range of todays tactical airlifters, for similar cost of ownership. The A400M is the airlifter for the future, not the transporter of the past. A400M is the versatile airlifter.

SPACE: EADS is one of the few aerospace companies having a substantial presence in all major segments of the space industry, from launch systems to satellite and mission systems.

MISSILES: EADS is Europes largest and the worlds second largest provider of tactical missiles

TELECOMMUNICATIONS AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS: EADS is a major provider of telecommunications equipment.
