1840 ET [Dow Jones]--AeroVironment is seeing more demand for its defense systems internationally, particularly in Europe and also in Asia Pacific, CEO Wahid Nawabi says during a call with analysts. "The world, unfortunately, is not a safer place than we all wish," Nawabi says, adding recent conflicts have emphasized a need to rapidly boost defense capabilities and led to a seismic shift in demand. The company plans to grow its presence in Europe as a result, he says. (kelly.cloonan@wsj.com)
