Fuselage & airframe
Shape fuselage sections, wings and tails around the configuration. Compare geometry revisions as requirements evolve.
Aircraft concept design
REAH Shape
Develop the aircraft around its requirements.
Move from a packaging constraint to an aircraft concept. Shape brings fuselage geometry, lifting surfaces and equipment envelopes into the same design conversation.
Concept
Portfolio preview. Product definition. Discuss your design workflow and evaluation requirements.
The engineering question
Can the equipment fit without compromising the aircraft?
Start with the payload. Find the aircraft around it.
Packaging & balance
Explore equipment envelopes, usable volume and mass-property estimates alongside the outer shape.
Geometry handoff
Define the geometry and configuration handoff into aerodynamic analysis and detailed engineering.
A focused evaluation
From your inputs to a useful engineering review.
- Bring
- Mission requirements, configuration constraints, equipment envelopes and mass assumptions.
- Work towards
- A concept geometry, packaging assessment and configuration baseline for the next design review.
- Designed for
- Aircraft designers, configuration engineers and research teams.
Concept
Evaluation access, supported functions and delivery milestones are agreed for your programme. The portfolio describes product direction; it does not establish general availability.
Connected engineering
Carry the decision into the next discipline.
REAH Shape
Bring the case your team needs to solve.
Tell us about the workflow, the available evidence and your next engineering milestone. Let’s define a useful starting point.
