AIRCRAFT AND SPACE CLUSTER

The main objective of the cooperation agreement titled “Technological Support of Innovative Aircraft Projects” is to stimulate innovation-oriented activities in the aviation and space industries and to facilitate access to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) ad research institutes to a modern research base. In particular, the aim of the cluster activities is to develop ad share a research base for the joint implementation of projects, mainly in the field of robotics and manufactured aircraft structures, aerodynamics of applied research and rocket piston engines, for both general aviation unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

The “Technological Support of Innovative Aircraft Projects” is open to all and any interested firms and institutions may join the Cluster.
