No, globalisation rather helps an industrial great power take control of interests of other nations. Earlier, countries were self-suffcient even if austere and poor from inside. US, Japan, China, Germany, India and Vietnam etc. benefited from it. Spain and Latin America are casualties of it since they failed to compete against superior production and became dependent on others.
Globalisation made them dependent on great powers. Countries like Spain, UK, Italy and Japan turning into remote controlled toys of USA, China taking over politics of nations like Zimbabwe, DRI Lanka, Pakistan and Ethiopia through debt traps, trade wars, Huawei Scandal, Jack Ma, Laural satellite scam, China blackmailing US, India and Japan due to their consumer dependency, everything is a part of it globalisation.
It allows advanced nations to use their might without military power.
Humans of all races are intelligent creatures. Nobody said anything against that.
What we said lack of resources, economic issues and weak political systems and their own choices didn't allow Spain and Latin America to invest in technology as much as US, Eueope and Asia-Pacific states did.
European Union is essentially piggybacked on financial, technological and military feats of Germany+France+UK and to some extent Italy. Like 70-80% of contributions. These are truly European great powers which even independently would be quite powerful. Every other European country is an underdog.
It's enough that world gets to know about what Germany or UK or France thinks but not Spain.
Spain is their follower, not leader.
Spain's aviation industry dates back to 1923 when José Ortiz-Echagüe founded Construcciones Aeronáuticas, SA. The company, known by the initials CASA, went on to design and manufacture aircraft and become a pioneering presence in European aviation cooperation. Having worked successfully on earlier Airbus projects, CASA became part of Airbus in 2000.
Airbus operations in Spain, employing approximately
3,400 employees, produces the horizontal stabilisers for the entire range of Airbus commercial aircraft at its facilities in Getafe, Illescas, and Puerto Real, among other components.
Getafe (in the Madrid region) is responsible for designing, engineering and manufacturing of components for all Airbus aircraft. They include the horizontal stabiliser for the double-deck A380 jetliner; the assembly and testing of the horizontal stabilisers for the wide-body A350 and A330, as well as for the single-aisle A320 Family. This site also is responsible for producing the two sections that comprise the A380’s tail cone, as well as the A350’s tail cone (Section 19).
The site of Illescas (Toledo) has maintained Airbus at the forefront of aviation composites, contributing to the success of the different Airbus programmes. Illescas is responsible for manufacturing the components of the empennage and aft fuselage for all Airbus aircraft versions and for the Eurofighter combat aircraft. The A350 wing’s lower cover – the largest carbon fibre single component on this aircraft – also is produced at the site.
Final assembly and functional testing of the A380 horizontal stabiliser is completed at Puerto Real (in the Cádiz region); the plant also produces the horizontal stabiliser’s lateral boxes for the A350 and A330 families, and elevators for the A320 family, among components.
Airbus Helicopters employs more than
500 people in the cities of
Albacete and
Getafe, where rotary-wing aircraft are designed, developed and integrated, as well as flight tested and certified.
Final assembly of Tiger attack helicopter and multi-role NH90 military rotorcraft are performed in Spain, along with sub-assembly production for tailbooms on the Tiger and H135 light utility helicopter, and the NH90’s forward fuselage. In addition, the country is home to extensive fleet support facilities that cater to both civil and military helicopters
Spain is a key industrial base for Airbus, with production facilities for commercial and military aircraft, helicopters and space activities located in the country.
