ILO – the Finnish Aerospace Program
•
Ilmailuteollisuuden ja lentotekniikan
ohjelma (ILO) – Program for Aviation
Industry and Technology. A joint study
by the industry, Finnish Air Force and
research establishments
•
Focus on three areas
1.
2.
3.
Networking between actors (both
domestic and international)
Education and research to
guarantee future competence
UAS systems

NRA Flyg 2010 – the Swedish Aerospace Research
Program
•
•
•
•
•
NRA Flyg 2010 gives 9 areas for
Swedish focusing, including:
Roadmap, structure for better
synergies

15
Country-by-country Focuses?
•
Sweden is seen as focused on being a
forefront high-level systems provider
(military and dual use) in international
context
•
Finland is deeply involved in life-cycle
and structural integrity management
•
Sweden and Finland are into UAS
development
•
Norway and Denmark have an interest
in selected systems (missiles, EW)
•
All are working on aerostructures
2010
16
Joint interest areas?
•
Life-cycle management of new
concepts – such as stealth, bonded
structures etc.
•
Ensuring competent personnel through
education and research
•
Cooperation in structures within EDA
(GEM) and EU (Framework) programs
•
UAS technologies and utilisation
concepts

Way Forward and Challenges
•
Firstly, we should know more about
each others’ competencies, ambitions
and focuses.
•
Secondly, we would need to be ready
to give up something to be done by
others.
•
Thirdly, we would need to agree on
financing, organising and exploitation
of results.
•
The rest is just work!
