BAE Systems and Bombardier Agree Framework for Cooperation on Next-Generation Combat Air
BAE Systems brings decades of combat air experience spanning aircraft design, systems integration, manufacturing and support. This agreement marks an important step in our ambition to strengthen international partnerships that support the future of combat air.
We’re excited by the opportunity to collaborate with Bombardier to help deliver the strategic aims of Canada’s Defence Industrial Strategy.
Bombardier has a proud history of designing, building and supporting world-class aircraft while advancing aerospace technology. We are well positioned to bring together and develop the talent and expertise needed for programmes that can carry a generational impact on the worldwide defence industry.
This MOU with BAE Systems provides a clear framework to explore how these capabilities can support next-generation defence programmes, while strengthening industrial capacity, high-value jobs and long-term aerospace leadership.
The companies share an ambition to develop an enduring set of capabilities that support the delivery of next-generation combat air solutions, creating value across the entire lifecycle – from early-stage design and digital development through systems integration, manufacturing and in-service support.
Bombardier’s MOU with BAE Systems is a way of bringing together mutual capabilities in aerospace and defence to develop long term sovereign combat air capabilities in Canada and for international markets.
