Growing Demand For Low-Cost Jet-Powered Systems In Europe
GKN Aerospace is finalizing the architecture for a military uncrewed aircraft systems demonstrator for Sweden, as the company sees rapidly growing European interest in low-cost, jet-powered UAS. The company announced it had been contracted by Sweden’s defense materiel agency last November. GKN’s development of autonomous collaborative platforms may be a key area of growth for the company, as reported by Aviation Week.
