What is the future of the Airbus fleet? In the next twenty years, what new aircraft can we expect from Europe's defacto aerospace giant? Today we will go over what we predict will be the new three aircraft we will see from Airbus, what they will be like to fly and how they will impact the world of aviation.

For the last fourty years, Airbus has been a major influence on the aerospace landscape, especially with the commercial line of aircraft. Since entering the market, the company has come up with various models of all capabilities to fill nearly every niche. However, since then the firm has slowed down with aircraft releases and new aircraft announcements have been few and far between.

The most recent new aircraft to come from Airbus is the A321xlr, a long-range narrowbody aircraft that has won orders left and right and will make a point to point travel as breeze like never before - which we will cover in a future video.

But what happens next? What is the new game-changing aircraft we expect from Airbus?

The first new aircraft that will enter the market will be more familiar than you realize, and that will be the Airbus A350neo. That's right, after bringing the neo series to both the A320 and A330, Airbus will next bring its neo concept to the popular A350 program. Naturally, the A380neo was also considered, but as that aircraft series is concluded, it is almost impossible that we will see it.

So what will the A350neo be like? As with the A330neo series, there will be a slight adjustment to the criteria, with the two versions of the A350neo focusing on either capacity or range. we will see an increase in passenger capacity to match the capacity of the Boeing 777X, 20-40 passengers more than the A350-1000, and fill in the void left in the market from the departure of both the 747 and A380, - of around 400 passengers.

You may recall that both Qantas and Singapore operate or plan to operate an A350 for ultra-long-haul routes, such as Sydney to London or Singapore to New York. A new NEO A350 will likely take this market into account and have a range well beyond the current A350-900ULR. This long-range version will have a range of over 10,000 nautical miles and fly for 21 hours or longer.

The second aircraft that is on airbus' future plan is a new narrowbody.

Here is what we predict, the new narrowbody will fill in the A321neo market segment, with an Airbus A220 moving up to a -500 series to help cover the A319 and A320 market. This narrowbody platform could very well be shrunk to fill in existing A320 demand and stretched to upward fill into a proposed A322 space. This space would be the middle of the market of 250 passengers to a range of 5000 nautical miles.

Well, no, Airbus has actually started hiring for two new production lines and we have an excellent idea of what they are - hence the animations that you have already seen.

As for the third aircraft, there are a few different directions Airbus could go. They could enter the turboprop market with a hydrogen or electric aircraft for short-range, 70 seaters 2,000 nautical mile routes, one that is zero emissions to meet the requirements of the increased funding. T

Alternatively, there is that regional middle of the market segment. Cheap widebodies that are designed for shuttle routes.

So what is airbus waiting for?

The first is the ultra-high-bypass jet engines. These engines, like the GE9X on the Boeing 777X have so much power to weight ratio that planes can fly further and on less fuel. Airbus needs these new engines before they enter the market to ensure that their aircraft can remain competitive to rivals Boeing and Embraer. T
Rolls-Royce, Safran, and Pratt & Whitney have all said they’re pursuing such designs. London-based Rolls-Royce has earmarked service entry in 2025 for its Ultrafan model, while France’s Safran is working on a demonstrator that will be ready for ground tests by 2021.

The other task that Airbus is working on is digitizing its production lines, and planning to build another two production lines for the A350neo and the new narrowbody - the latter of which will likely be at the old A380 production line.

A final question would be if these aircraft will actually be built.

For a fact, we know that part of a multi-billion dollar bail out given to Airbus this year includes a commitment to research and develop a new cleansheet aircraft, using a new fuel source, by 2035.

A counterpoint is that Airbus is very confident in its A320neo program and it seems unlikely it would want to throw away all its progress so far with a new narrowbody clean sheet.

When asked about the new aircraft, Airbus replied to Bloomberg that “As a leading aircraft manufacturer, we are looking at many ways to advance our product line,” it said. “There are many studies, but not all see the light of day." But you know what, i have a good feeling for these three.
