Altair to Spotlight AI-Driven Engineering and Defense Tech at DSEI 2025

Altair, a global leader in computational intelligence and simulation technologies, is set to showcase its latest AI-powered engineering, smart manufacturing, and connected defense solutions at DSEI 2025 in London. The company’s presence at the event underscores its growing influence in aerospace and defense, where digital engineering and data fusion are rapidly reshaping mission readiness and operational agility.

Engineering Intelligence for the Modern Battlespace

At the heart of Altair’s exhibit is its suite of AI-driven tools designed to accelerate research, development, and testing (RD&T) across defense domains. By integrating knowledge graphs and advanced simulation, Altair enables secure communications, rapid threat detection, and real-time decision-making. These capabilities are increasingly vital as defense agencies seek to unify data across platforms and respond to evolving threats with speed and precision.

Dr. Pietro Cervellera, Altair’s senior vice president for aerospace and defense, emphasized that “AI, data, and connectivity are today’s competitive advantages,” positioning Altair as a catalyst for next-generation defense innovation.

Smart Manufacturing and Lifecycle Optimization

Altair’s solutions extend beyond the design phase into manufacturing, sustainment, and modernization. With demand for military assets surging, the company’s fused data models help manage production machines, maintenance databases, and mission planning tools. This holistic approach supports predictive maintenance, flexible production, and automated operations, key priorities for aerospace manufacturers facing compressed timelines and complex supply chains.

Supporting Startups and Cyber Defense

Altair is also spotlighting its Aerospace Startup Acceleration Program (ASAP), which equips emerging companies and research institutions with enterprise-grade tools to develop advanced technologies at speed and scale. This initiative reflects a broader industry trend toward democratizing access to high-performance computing and simulation.

In parallel, Altair’s cybersecurity solutions are designed to detect and prevent sophisticated attacks across aerospace and defense networks. By enabling high-speed data monitoring and reducing false positives, the platform empowers non-experts to identify and prioritize real threats, an increasingly critical capability as cyber warfare becomes a central concern in aerospace operations.

A Digital Backbone for Aerospace Resilience

Altair’s presence at DSEI 2025 highlights the convergence of simulation, AI, and connectivity as foundational elements of aerospace resilience. As defense agencies and contractors seek to modernize legacy systems and integrate emerging technologies, platforms like Altair’s offer a digital backbone for innovation.

For aerospace stakeholders, the company’s emphasis on lifecycle integration and startup enablement signals a shift toward more agile, data-centric development models. Whether optimizing hypersonic vehicle design or securing satellite communications, Altair’s tools are helping reshape how the industry approaches complexity and scale.

Altair will be located at Booth N7-163 in the ADS Pavilion at DSEI 2025. More details are available on Altair’s aerospace solutions page.
