Europe's aerospace and defence industries grew sharply in 2024, with turnover up 10.1% to 325.7 billion euros ($378.04 billion) and direct employment hitting a record 1.1 million, Camille Grand, secretary general of industry group ASD said on Tuesday.
Defence led the surge with turnover up 13.8% to 183.4 billion euros, driven by higher spending and efforts to bolster security driven by the war in Ukraine, Grand told reporters.
