There's an increasing need for military aircraft to be more durable in the future

Nick Colosimo, a Futurist and Engineering Manager within the R&D team said: "Of course, we don't know exactly what sorts of aircraft technologies will be used in 2040 with any certainty, but it's great to be able to show the public some concepts that might be possible through projecting where today's technology could get to. BAE Systems has a rich heritage in research and development, and our team builds on literally decades of previous R&D work by thousands of scientists and engineers."

Research and development has always played a key role in BAE Systems' defence, aerospace and security business, with the company investing £117 million of its own capital in research and development during 2013.
