'''DASA''' (officially '''Deutsche AeroSpace AG''', later '''Daimler-Benz AeroSpace AG''', then '''DaimlerChrysler AeroSpace AG''') was a German aerospace manufacturer.

It was created during 1989 as the aerospace subsidiary arm of [[Daimler-Benz|Daimler-Benz AG]] (later [[DaimlerChrysler]]) from 1989. The company acquired rival manufacturer [[Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm]] (MBB) that same year, integrating it along with its other aerospace interests, [[MTU Aero Engines|MTU München]], and [[Dornier Flugzeugwerke]], by 1992.

The company's existence was relatively brief due to the [[peace dividend]] of the 1990s having motivated industry-wide consolidation. During July 2000, DASA merged with [[Aérospatiale-Matra]] of [[France]] and [[CASA (aircraft manufacturer)|Construcciones Aeronáuticas SA]] (CASA) of [[Spain]] to form [[Airbus|EADS]], which has since rebranded itself as ''Airbus Group''.
