Dubai Airshow 2021 will showcase the critical role that aviation, aerospace, space and defence continue to play at a global level.

Based on the number of new participant countries and exhibitors, it's set to be bigger and better than the 2019 edition.

He added that the show will be futuristic, modern, forward-looking, and creative, showcasing the future of mobility, space exploration and defence as well as AI, digital transformation and more.

The global aerospace event will take place at Dubai World Central from November 14-18.
