Product & System Engineering

Enhancing Safety and Optimising Performance

Developing complex aerospace systems requires engineering excellence at every step, from initial architecture to integration, stress analysis, and scheduled maintenance. Whether it’s ensuring robust design, optimising aircraft maturity, or supporting seamless integration of equipment and systems, Product & System Engineering activities are foundational to safe and high-performance operations.

At Airbus Protect, we support major aerospace players across aircraft, helicopters, and space domains. Our multidisciplinary teams bring end-to-end engineering capabilities to help you define, develop, and validate products in line with technical, operational, certification and safety expectations.

Why Airbus Protect?

At Airbus Protect, we combine deep engineering know-how, cross-domain expertise and a hands-on systems approach to support your product and system development challenges.

From architecture and design to V&V, stress analysis, and scheduled maintenance planning, we collaborate closely with your teams to improve system maturity, ensure integration efficiency, and optimise performance, all while maintaining the highest safety standards.
