The article analyzes Brazil's positioning in relation to nanotechnology applied to the aerospace sector, highlighting the importance of this emerging technology for innovation and competitiveness. Nanotechnology, which involves the manipulation of materials at the nanoscale, has significant applications in the aerospace industry, such as the development of lighter and stronger materials, improvements in electronic systems and sensors, and fuel efficiency. The study mentions that, despite the potential, Brazil still faces challenges in its approach compared to more advanced countries like the United States and Germany. The research was conducted through an analysis of scientific literature and patents, as well as a survey of nanotechnology activities in the country. The article concludes that it is crucial for Brazil to invest in research and development in this area to accelerate the exploration of the opportunities that nanotechnology offers, both for the Air Force and for the national aerospace industry.
