Aerospace & Defense Data: Airspace Performance, Safety Records, Defense Economics and Orbit Catalogs

Thirty-three primary datasets in five layers: airspace operations (roughly 975,000 airport-traffic rows and 25 million-plus 4D trajectories across the two EUROCONTROL records, the 316,086-active-N-number FAA registry, 85,900 airports), safety (NTSB cases from 1962, Aviation Safety Network occurrences from 1919, 17,366 EASA airworthiness directives), defense economics (SIPRI spending from 1949, NATO's 32-country compendium, EDA's EU-27 series, arms transfers from 1950, SAM.gov awards from FY2007), space (about 51,500 tracked objects, 138 million-plus element sets, 7,900-plus launches) and market shape (Airbus and Boeing 20-year forecasts, BryceTech investment tracking). Ten adjacent records pool in from neighboring industries.

To 1949. SIPRI's database carries annual observations for 170-plus countries across six measures - current and constant USD, local currency, share of GDP, per capita and share of government spending - with world totals beginning in 1988 once Soviet-era data survives. The World Bank record republishes the series from 1960 with 17,490 observations on the share-of-GDP measure alone, NATO's compendium covers all 32 members with archived editions to 1963, and the European Defence Agency's EU-27 collection starts in 2005.

SIPRI's Arms Transfers Database: international transfers of major conventional arms from 1950 to 2025, recorded per weapon-system order with supplier, recipient, trend-indicator value and annual delivery breakdowns. Roughly 260 supplier and recipient entities appear, including non-state armed groups and international organizations - tens of thousands of orders in one joinable table.

The Aviation Safety Network - airliner, corporate-jet and military-transport occurrences from 1919, with a 258,000-record WikiBase extending to 1905 and 15,000-plus drone-sighting reports. For US civil aviation specifically, the NTSB database carries hundreds of thousands of cases from 1962, each with aircraft-level detail: make, model, injuries by severity, phase of flight and purpose of flight.

Two complementary EUROCONTROL records. ANS Performance publishes en-route ATFM delay and IFR-flights series from January 2011 by state, ANSP, functional airspace block and airport - the airport-traffic workbook alone runs to roughly 975,000 rows - while the Aviation Data & Dashboard adds daily-grain traffic, delay and efficiency series, state-level CO2 from January 2010, and an ADRR archive of 25 million-plus flights of 4D trajectory data.
