At the ongoing Farnborough International Airshow, Italian conglomerate Leonardo is showcasing a portfolio of systems designed to operate across multiple domains.
The Group is presenting a broad portfolio of products and solutions designed to address the full spectrum of operational scenarios, increasingly characterised by hybrid threats. Among the key capabilities it is showcasing at the event are crewed and uncrewed aircraft and helicopters, counter-Unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS), advanced sensors, cybersecurity solutions, space technologies, as well as command and control capabilities that are essential for coordinating network-enabled operations and so-called tactical bubbles.
Land, Sea, Air, and Space
In the air domain, Leonardo is presenting one of the industry's most comprehensive portfolios, From the Eurofighter Typhoon and the next-generation Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP) to the M-346 Block 20 and M-345 trainers, from the AW149 multi-role helicopter to the Proteus fully autonomous helicopter demonstrator, and through its partnership with Turkish aerospace company Baykar via the LBA Systems joint venture, Leonardo has integrated crewed and uncrewed platforms alongside new Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) solutions within a fully integrated operational ecosystem.
In the land domain, Leonardo is strengthening its industrial footprint through the Leonardo Rheinmetall Military Vehicles joint venture and the recent acquisition of IDV. The Group's land portfolio includes armoured vehicles, artillery systems, radar systems, helicopters, and command, control and communications systems designed to operate as a single integrated system, ensuring interoperability across platforms and operational capabilities.
In the maritime domain, Leonardo contributes to naval superiority through next-generation sensors and Combat Management Systems. The Group's capabilities combine unmanned systems, embarked helicopters, naval guns and guided munitions, radar, and command and control systems, providing persistent surveillance and operational superiority at sea.
In the Space domain, Leonardo's ambition extends to space surveillance and in-orbit services within a fully multi-domain framework. The Group is committed to strengthening European leadership through integrated solutions and new industrial partnerships, while accelerating the development of its proprietary Earth observation constellation.
Multi-domain Vision
Leonardo's multi-domain vision is embodied by the “Michelangelo Dome”, an integrated architecture that connects sensors, command and control systems, and effectors within a single ecosystem. The system integrates air and missile defence capabilities into a scalable and unified architecture, enabling coordinated operations across all operational domains and significantly enhancing the effectiveness of responses to evolving threats.
