The National Aerospace Science and Technology Park (NASTP) is an undertaking within Aviation City Pakistan led by the Pakistan Air Force. Its primary objective is to enhance the nation's capabilities in the Aerospace Industry by establishing clusters and innovation hubs throughout the country. NASTP aims to create an ecosystem that fosters design, research, development, and innovation, including aviation, space, IT, and cyber sectors.[1][2]
