Overview Of The South African Aerospace Industry Landscape
Overview of the South African Aerospace Industry LandscapeThe South African aerospace industry is active and vibrant and can demonstrate a long and proud history ofaerospace innovation, research, development and manufacturing. The industry, which was alreadymanufacturing full aircraft in the late 1920’s has turned that early step and many subsequent innovationsinto long standing partnerships with many of the world's leading aerospace original equipmentmanufacturers.Many South African aerospace companies are single source suppliers of components and assemblies to thelikes of Saab, Boeing and Airbus to name a few. In addition South Africa also has a long track record ofproducing full aircraft and complex aircraft systems from for instance the Rooivalk helicopter all the way togeneral aviation aircraft such as the Sling, to building aircraft under licence, such as the Dassault Mirageetc. South Africa also has a very mature research and development agenda through which the country hasbecome a globally recognised leader in key technological offerings such as titanium beneficiation, air trafficmanagement, avionics and electronic warfare systems and UAV’s, to name a few.The sector in South Africa consists of a range of stakeholders in general aviation, commercial, aviation,military aviation, air traffic management, aircraft part and system manufacturing, integration, propulsionavionics, sensors, ICT systems, and advanced manufacturing, including university and science council basedfundamental research into new materials (titanium and natural composites).Given the increased overlap between products intended for defence and civilian use, the aerospaceindustry includes companies that produce defence equipment or products by making use of civiliantechnologies, or which manufacture dual-use products that are saleable in both defence and non-defencemarkets. The technological intensity of the aerospace and defence sector acts as a driver for newtechnologies and technical skills to be developed in the country, that are diffused to other sectors therebyintensifying industrialisation and contributing to the evolution towards a knowledge economy.The industry consists of 120 well established local companies and state owned entities employing over5000 specialist, scientists, engineers, artisan and technicians, with an approximate turnover of R5B/annum.POSSIBLE COLLABORATIONFour main types of collaboration could be offered in the aerospace sector:a. Business matchingb. Business Supporting Organizations Collaborationsc. Tertiary education and research exchanged. Local and National Government interaction1
