The Quantum Quest for the Aerospace Sector
summary
Airbus participates in the EU-funded EQUALITY project targeting near- and mid-term quantum gains for CFD, battery and materials design, multidisciplinary optimization and satellite tasking optimization. Work runs on quantum simulators (no production hardware yet); teams implement physics‑informed neural networks and quantum‑ML pipelines to process radar SAR stacks. Results: successful demos on advection and Burgers equations, inability so far to solve Navier–Stokes, and promising combinatorial gains for satellite scheduling that remain at toy scale.
