What this shows BAE's Innovation Score is 41.5/100 (top 33% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Where BAE's grants concentrate

BAE Systems Land & Armaments L.P. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 24 CPC subclasses with 39.3% of grants classified under F41H (ARMOUR; Armoured TURRETS; Armoured OR Armed VEHICLES; Means OF Attack OR Defence, e.g. Camouflage, IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (10 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, BAE sits between Atos Medical AB and Baicells Technologies Co. Ltd..

BAE's three-year grant acceleration

BAE Systems Land & Armaments L.P. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
