Airbus to recruit 500 engineers in India this year
BENGALURU: Airbus’s engineers in India are playing a crucial role in building what will be the world’s first zero-emission commercial aircraft, called ZEROe. Airbus plans to launch it by 2035.
The teams in India are supporting other global tech hubs by developing simulations and models to support performance calculations, cooling systems for fuel cell design, and conducting safety analysis. “We are preparing the future for sustainable aviation, and tech and engineering are at the heart of it,” said chief technical officer Sabine Klauke. “We are looking at three different configurations. One is a turbofan design with 200 passengers powered by hydrogen rather than jet fuel with a range of 2,000 nautical miles.
