Government Funded Institute Outlines Technology Roadmap For Growth
The Aerospace Technology Institute (ATI) has unveiled a new technology roadmap, outlining a $41 billion opportunity for the UK aerospace industry by 2050. The strategy, called Engineering Growth, identifies four key areas for investment focus, including ultra-efficient and zero-carbon technologies. The UK’s traditional strengths in wings and engines will be crucial for next-generation narrowbody aircraft, with proposed technologies needing to reach technology readiness level 6 within the next few years. According to the ATI, this strategy could deliver sustained economic growth and support high-value jobs across the UK, as reported by FlightGlobal.
