Safrans aerospace business covers the entire life cycle
of engines, propulsion systems and equipment for
both civil and military airplanes and helicopters: design,
production, sales, testing, maintenance, repair and
overhaul (MRO). Our systems and equipment are an
integral part of todays leading aircraft, whether produced
in Europe, North America, Brazil, China, India or Russia.
Through CFM International, for example, an equal joint
venture with GE, Safran powers nearly all single-aisle
commercial jets, including the Airbus A320 and Boeing
737 families with the best-selling CFM56. We are also
one of the worlds leading manufacturers of rocket
propulsion systems for launchers and missiles.

GEARING UP FOR THE
FUTURE OF AVIATION
LEAP,
THE LATEST FROM CFM INTERNATIONAL
With nearly 23,000 delivered to date, the CFM56 is the best selling engine
in the history of aviation. A CFM56-powered aircraft takes of somewhere
in the world every two seconds. The size of the maintenance market,
spanning an installed base of engines on 9,500 aircraft, consolidates
Safrans business model by giving it a recurring income stream.
The new LEAP engine, slated for certifcation in 2015, has already been
selected to power the next generation of commercial jets Airbus A320neo,
Boeing 737 MAX, Comac C919 thus echoing the success of the CFM56.
While the LEAP features a number of technological innovations, it is
still based on a proven architecture to
guarantee operational reliability as
well as optimized and predictable
maintenance costs.
GREEN TAXIING AND
MORE ELECTRIC AIRCRAFT
THE REVOLUTION IS UNDER WAY
Safran plays a pivotal role in the revolution in aircraft energy sources,
with the traditional hydraulic and pneumatic systems being replaced by
electrical systems in the upcoming generations of commercial jets. Safran
masters the key technologies in airborne electrical systems needed to
ensure this energy transition, as shown by the electric Green Taxiing
System (eGTS).
The electric Green Taxiing System, produced in partnership with Honeywell,
uses electrical power generated by the planes auxiliary power unit (APU)
to drive electric motors located in the wheels, allowing airplanes to taxi on
the ground without using their jet engines. This is a major innovation that
reduces operating costs and pollution, thereby considerably improving
airlines operational and environmental performance. Safran has even
acquired an Airbus A320 fying testbed to give us an unrivaled develop-
ment platform for this program.
Already the worlds leading supplier of aircraft engines
with the CFM56, Safran and GE are well positioned to
duplicate this impressive success with the new LEAP,
which will make its market entry in 2016. Safran is also
playing a pivotal role in the development of more electric
aircraft, through its advanced electrical systems and the
electric green taxiing system.

Safrans defense business spans optronics, avionics,
navigation, electronics and safety-critical software for both
civil and military applications. In the defense sector,
we offer advanced solutions for the digital battlefield,
including the FELIN

soldier modernization program,
for which we are prime contractor.
Safran also offers custom-tailored modular solutions
for infantry forces, plus tactical drone systems. Our
technologies are featured on guided weapon systems,
leading to the development of the AASM, a new-
generation smart guided air-to-ground weapon. The
AASM adds a guidance kit and a range augmentation
kit to a standard bomb, transforming it into a fre & forget
missile.

Safrans security business covers three main markets:
identifcation, e-documents and detection. We are a world
leader in multibiometric identifcation technologies (fnger-
print, iris, facial and vein recognition), and a major player
in smart cards and the detection of dangerous and illicit
substances using computed tomography technology.
These capabilities mean that Safran can meet the
fast-evolving security needs of people, businesses and
countries.
Deployed in over 100 countries, our secure ID documents,
devices and integrated systems enhance the security of
transportation and high-value sites around the world.
In India, we are playing a key role in the Aadhaar program,
which will assign a unique identifcation number to each
resident, providing doubly secure access (fngerprint and
iris recognition) to a wide range of social services and
benefts.

PHILANTHROPY AND SPONSORSHIPS
REFLECT SAFRANS CORE VALUES
Since 2005, Safran has supported more than 250 projects through
our corporate philanthropy and social responsibility policy. All of
these initiatives aim to meet two major challenges, namely social
solidarity and equal opportunity, implemented either through
Safrans two foundations, or directly with the association involved.
We also sponsor a major ocean racing team, and this program
again refects our corporate values and identity. In particular, the
Safran Open 60 ocean racer illustrates our high-tech expertise and
ability to build long-term partnerships. Skipper Marc Guillemot,
the naval architects, shipyard and suppliers have established
a long-term partnership centered on high performance. From
the outset, this exciting project was enthusiastically supported
by Safran employees, who contributed technologies, processes
and methods to achieve a breakthrough in the history of boat
sponsorships.
SAFRAN IN 2012 I 19
PERFORMANCE AND
RESPONSIBILITY
Cultural diversity, a
natural component of
a global corporation,
takes on a special
dimension at Safran
because of our inter-
national partnerships
and external growth
operations.
At the same time,
our diversity-oriented human resources policy is consistent with our
commitment to corporate citizenship. Actions refecting this policy focus
on young people, women, seniors and the disabled
Safran has made a strong commitment to equal opportunity
and diversity, considered an essential performance driver
that spurs emulation and innovation. We seek to set an
example in our relations with both employees and the
companies that are the Groups operating arms.

A MEMBER OF THE
SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY
As a major research player, Safran directs its eforts in this
area based on recommendations from our Scientifc Council,
comprising eminent scientists from outside the Group. We have
also established major partnerships with the French national
scientifc research agency CNRS, the French aerospace research
agency Onera, and a number of research labs and organizations
around the world, including Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech and the
University of Michigan in the United States, A*STAR (Agency
for Science, Technology and Research) in Singapore, etc. At the
same time, we enjoy regular and enriching contacts with other
leading manufacturers carrying out research in related areas.
Within these partnerships, intellectual property is an instrument
for greater competitiveness as well as a strategic asset to foster
technological breakthroughs. Safran fles for hundreds of patents
every year, and in 2011 it was ranked No. 2 in France. Our portfolio
now includes more than 16,000 patents.
TOMORROWS CHALLENGES
Our Research & Technology eforts have to address a number of issues,
including the rising cost of energy and raw materials, growing air trafc
and the resulting airport congestion, an increased need for smoother and
more secure travel and transactions, and the interoperability of defense
systems. Another imperative is environmental
protection, which must go hand in hand
with the need to reduce operating costs
for our customers. Our R&T objectives
include the reduction of fuel consumption,
greenhouse gases and noise, along with
the development of greener operations
and integrating the entire life cycle right
from product design.
Research is strategic in any high-tech enterprise, and plays
a critical role in building strong foundations for the future.
To maintain our leadership, Safran applies a strategy of
continuous innovation, investing some 11% of our annual
revenues in R&D.
