Looking forward Leonardo’s approach in Canada is focused on creating skilled job opportunities, investing in new technologies across aerospace defence and security and contributing to Canada’s economy as it pursues major business opportunities such as the Cormorant Mid-Life Upgrade (CMLU) and the Future Aircrew Training (FAcT) program. Leonardo Canada, with its headquarters in Ottawa, has recently been established to coordinate the Company’s activities, to act as the focal point for Canadian customers and stakeholders and support ongoing business development, in line with Leonardo’s industrial plan.
Following the recent selection of Leonardo Canada as one of the qualified suppliers for the FAcT program the Company aims to propose a cost effective solution based on its extensive experience as a training services provider for both fixed and rotary wing aircrew.
Leonardo is also leading a team of Canadian industrial partners, under the Team Cormorant banner, to meet the requirements of the Cormorant Mid Life Update (CMLU) program. Visitors will be able to find out more at the Leonardo stand in the main hall.
In the space sector, Leonardo has a stake in Northstar Earth and Space through the Space Alliance (formed by Telespazio and Thales Alenia Space) to support Canada’s future space activities. Based in Montreal, it is an information services company developing a 40 satellites constellation for Space Situational Awareness and Geo Information services.
At CANSEC Leonardo will be showing the M-345 jet trainer in a Canadian Snowbirds aerobatic team paint scheme and the TH-119 helicopter.
