Rheinmetall will be exhibiting across approximately 840 square metres at the International Aerospace Exhibition, ILA Berlin 2026. The Düsseldorf-based technology group is one of the major exhibitors at this long-established trade fair, which will take place from 10 to 14 June 2026 at the exhibition grounds at the capital’s BER airport in Schöne­feld. Following the motto “strong and clear. Across all domains.”, Rheinmetall is positioning itself at the ILA as a comprehensive systems provider for all operational domains – as a reliable ‘One-Stop-Shop’. With this, the company is taking on responsibility for Germany, NATO and its partners. Rheinmetall’s ‘sensor-to-shooter’ approach is an innovative solution that ensures maximum transparency in the operational theatre, minimising response times and thereby securing a decisive advantage in protecting friendly forces – from the first signal in space to the impact on the ground. Highlights of Rheinmetall’s exhibition presence in 2026 include: MQ-28 Ghost Bat: Boeing’s MQ-28 Ghost Bat is a proven, autonomous ‘Collaborative Combat Aircraft’ (CCA) designed for manned-unmanned teaming operations in highly embattled airspace. The system has a modular design, has already completed over 150 flights and can be flexibly deployed for reconnaissance, electronic warfare and the integration of weapon systems. Boeing is bringing this sophisticated solution into a strategic partnership with Rheinmetall to realise the Bundeswehr’s planned CCA procurement by 2029. In this cooperation, Rheinmetall will be the system manager for the MQ-28 in Germany and is responsible for adapting the system to national requirements. Furthermore, thanks to its strong industrial base and expertise in unmanned systems, Rheinmetall will provide all operational, maintenance and logistical support. Read more... https://lnkd.in/d-FUcHSY
