After lunch the delegates will depart by coach for a visit to the premises of Airbus Defence and Space, Europe’s No. 1 Defence and Space Company. Sights will include some of the products including the swing-role combat aircraft Eurofighter Typhoon, the multi-role military airlifter A400M and the multi-role transport and tanker aircraft A330 MRTT.
