Participated In The Balt Military Expo And Natcon Conference

The long-term partnership between Poland and Airbus Helicopters – built on the dual strengths of cooperation and the application of innovation – was spotlighted during the company’s participation at the Balt Military Expo and Natcon Conference in Gdansk.

During Balt Military Expo 2014, the company unveiled a new cooperation with three Polish Universities: Lodz University of Technology, Gdansk University of Technology and Kazimierz Pulaski University of Technology and Humanities of Radom. At the Natcon Conference held during this exhibition, Jean-Brice Dumont, Airbus Helicopters’ Executive Vice President Engineering, is to speak about “Future vertical lift solutions in defense and homeland security based on the X3 experience”.
 
“By strengthening our cooperation, Airbus Helicopters is ready to help develop the future of Poland’s helicopter sector, while also benefitting from the country’s intellectual and industrial resources,” Dumont explained.

He added that the Lodz University of Technology’s contribution to Airbus Helicopters’ X3 program was a factor in this hybrid demonstrator’s successful flight test campaign, which culminated in surpassing previous high-speed flights by a helicopter. “Our collaboration demonstrated that Lodz University of Technology is an excellent and reliable partner, capable of following a rigorous and ambitious schedule,” Dumont stated. “Together, we opened the horizons of flight with the X3.”
