Graham leads Aviation Week's coverage of technology, focusing on engineering and technology across the aerospace industry, with a special focus on identifying technologies of strategic importance to aviation, aerospace and defense.
Born and educated in Scotland, he graduated in aeronautical engineering and worked in advanced design at Hawker Siddeley Aviation in the U.K. before becoming an aerospace journalist. Before joining Aviation Week in April 2008, he spent almost 30 years with weekly aerospace news magazine Flight International, most recently as Americas Editor based in the U.S.
Graham is a winner of the Decade of Excellence award for aviation journalism, and a Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society. He was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2018 Aerospace Media Awards.
In 2013 the Jesse H. Neal award for Best Technical Content was awarded to Graham Warwick and Guy Norris for their Advanced Propulsion feature.
Startup Eta Space is to demonstrate technologies for propellant depots in space under a NASA contract to build a test payload for launch into low Earth orbit in late 2023 on a Rocket Lab Photon satellite.
Scottish fuel-cell specialist Hy-Hybrid Energy is working with an undisclosed partner on a hybrid-electric propulsion system for aircraft that combines a gas turbine with a battery and a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) that operates on jet fuel.
As aircraft and propulsion developers look to electrical systems operating at kilovolt levels, Safran has teamed with a pyrotechnics specialist to develop an ultrafast method of shutting down high-power networks before electric arcing can cause potentially catastrophic damage.
