Airbus

Airbus is a leading global aerospace company that develops, manufactures, and services commercial aircraft, helicopters, and defense and space products. The company’s origins trace back to the merger of several European aerospace entities.

Well-known current commercial aircraft products include the efficient A220 Family, the highly popular A320 Family (the world’s most popular single-aisle aircraft), the versatile A330neo Family, and the long-range, fuel-efficient A350 Family.

Historical commercial products include the A300 (the company’s first airliner and the world’s first wide-body twinjet aircraft), the A310, and the A340. The A380, the world’s largest passenger aircraft, is an iconic historical product as production has ceased, although many remain in operation. Airbus is also a major player in the helicopter, military transport, and space and defense sectors.
