EADS (European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company) - A Leading Aerospace Corporation

EADS (European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company) was a multinational aerospace corporation based in Europe. It was formed in 2001 through the merger of several European aerospace companies, including Airbus, DaimlerChrysler Aerospace, and Construcciones Aeronáuticas SA (CASA). EADS was one of the largest aerospace companies in the world, with operations in more than 40 countries and a workforce of over 130,000 people.

EADS was involved in a wide range of activities, including commercial aircraft production (through Airbus), military aircraft production, space systems, and security solutions. The company was headquartered in Toulouse, France, and had major facilities in Germany, Spain, and the UK.

In 2014, EADS underwent a significant rebranding effort and changed its name to Airbus Group. This change reflected the company's focus on commercial aviation and its desire to distance itself from the military and defense-related activities that had been a significant part of EADS's business. Today, Airbus Group is one of the largest and most successful aerospace companies in the world, with a global presence and a diverse portfolio of products and services.
