At the Paris Air Show Leonardo and Bombardier Defense announced they’re entering into a collaboration phase to explore new opportunities in the Maritime MMA (Multi-Mission Aircraft) capability market. The parties signed a non-exclusive Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) intended to evaluate the possibility to respond to the growing demand for this wide range of airborne capabilities by integrating selected Leonardo systems into the Bombardier Global 6500 twin-engine jet platform. This would allow the parties to transform the aircraft into a next-generation Maritime MMA system targeting stringent market requirements.
 
The value proposition thus stems from a fusion of Leonardo’s top-tier ATOS mission system with multi-mission versatility, integrating Leonardo’s customizable mission sensors, and installed upon Bombardier’s platform delivering a comprehensive, integrated Surveillance solution. This might lead to the crafting of a specialized product offering, leveraging the integration of state-of-the-art acoustic, mission systems, and sensors for the task.
