INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
At the start of the Paris Air Show 2025, Quantum Systems and Airbus Defence and Space have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to
deepen their tactical cooperation
Both companies are working together on options to effortlessly integrate tactical aerial reconnaissance in particular into modern-day
command and information systems.The focus of these efforts is on rapidly and effectively reinforcing the abilities of the armed forces while
at the very same time making sure European technological sovereignty
In view of increasing geopolitical unpredictabilities and accelerated development cycles in the defence sector, resilient, interoperable and
ready-to-use air-borne security and information systems are to be deployed in the short and medium term.In contrast to other companies with
closed system architectures, Quantum Systems and Airbus are deliberately concentrating on openness and interface openness for their
AI-supported reconnaissance and effect network
The European user must have complete control over the technology, data and further advancement of the systems.In addition, existing
initiatives relating to open user interfaces, digital battlefields and forward-looking simulation environments are to be jointly established
The user-centred method is a direct lesson from the advancements on the battlefield in Ukraine
Quantum Systems has its own production center and R&D hub there.Quantum Systems will collaborate closely with the Airbus business areas Air
Power and Connected Intelligence
Together both business form a vibrant and effective alliance to advance European defence abilities through their development, dexterity,
worldwide reach and deep AI expertise.This partnership is a strong signal for the European defence market
Together with Airbus, we are creating a networked, self-governing and sovereign community for unmanned systems functional, interoperable and
To this end, we will link the Quantum Systems MOSAIC architecture below the Airbus CombatCloud
This will develop a reconnaissance network from high elevations down to the lowest level on the battlefield.Florian Seibel, co-CEO and
co-founder, Quantum SystemsThe partnership remains in line with Airbus tactical vision of shaping a European community in military air
In concrete terms, this is about guaranteeing Europes sovereignty in AI-supported objective systems and crewed-uncrewed teaming
Together, we are regularly thinking software application initially
This will make it possible for military missions to be carried out more efficiently and efficiently in future, while at the same time
ensuring the adaptability of the systems.Michael Schllhorn, CEO, Airbus Defence and SpaceSource: Quantum Systems
