The aerospace and defence industry continues to be a hotbed of innovation, with activity driven by the uptake of advanced technology, and growing importance of technologies such as hypersonics and advanced materials. In the last three years alone, there have been over 174,000 patents filed and granted in the aerospace and defence industry, according to GlobalData’s report on Innovation in Aerospace, Defence & Security: Turbo engine dampeners.
However, not all innovations are equal and nor do they follow a constant upward trend.

Ukrainian officials are downplaying the idea that Russia is gathering combat aircraft near the border for a major operation across their country.
There is no accumulation of enemy aircraft on the borders of Ukraine, Ukrainian Air Force spokesman Col. Yuri Ignat told reporters Monday at the Ukrainian Media Center.
“It is impossible to bring aviation to the borders, because aviation requires airfields,” Ignat said. “Where they were, there they are.

The trip, the President’s first since Russian troops flooded into Ukraine last year and during which he announced a new military aid package, has been in the works for months due to security concerns.

The latest tranche of U.S. military aid to Ukraine includes four Bradley Fire Support Team (BFIST) variants, which have a laser range finder/designator, computers, and communications systems designed to coordinate fire from multiple platforms onto multiple targets. As such, they could be a major force multiplier on a battlefield that is dominated by artillery.
French Defense Minister Sebastien Lecornu declared on Sunday that French armored vehicles could arrive in Ukraine next week.
The AMX-10 is a wheeled armored vehicle with a powerful gun, and is sometimes described as a light tank. The move comes more than a month after Paris said it would send some 30 of these vehicles as part of a new aid package after sending anti-aircraft weapons and mobile artillery systems.
But the AMX-10, being lightly armored, doesn’t measure up to the kind of vehicles Ukraine insists it needs to win the conflict with Russia.
