Avio Aero isn't an Italian company. It's a subsidiary of General Electric, meaning its products are ITAR restricted. The French wanted a 100% ITAR-free bill of materials.

AvioAero is an italian company that was bought by General Electric, they have IPs that are not owned by GE, which they used to make the Catalyst 1300-ED1 Engine for the Eurodrone which is 100% ITAR free.
Once again, Frogniggers sperg out without knowing anything. No wonder FCAS died with you in the mix.

>>65224940
Why do you call us trannies when the highest concentration both in numbers and per capita of trannies is the US? Not to mention how how the mentality and political movement to make everyone a tranny and to export such perversions was born and has been developed as a core US facet of life. Nothing can summarize the US better than a black tranny doing a fent lean in the parking lot of a goyslop fastfood restaurant.
If you've gotta insult us, at least come up with something that actually fits, instead of just slapping your own faults unto us.

False. It is Germany and Sweden.

It appears they are influenced a lot from Turkish Aksungur. But 40 hours endurance is not good, as Turkish one's endurance is 60+ hours with TEI turbodiesels
>>
>>65224919
The french just want to use European projects so other people can pay for them while they reap all the benefits. They demanded that FCAS should have been 80% french jobs and tech while germany pays for it. No wonder the Germans backed out

Seeing how those drones are shot down by literal sandniggers to the point that US is running out of them (having to buy parts from storage), I doubt it's worse

yup. France can pursue the Aarok, Germany can pursue the Aeroforce X. These politically forced projects should all be canned, same for MGCS. Germany and France can still collaborate where it actually makes sense, e.g. ballistic missiles.

You keep spreading this lie. Germany wanted to turn 50/50 with lead in 4 out of 5 pillars into 33/33/33 with lead in all 5 because they added Airbus Spain (which doesn't have aerospace worth a damn). It's basically the same stunt that Germany pulled with the Eurofighter.
>>
>>65227538
wrong. Germany did not demand lead in all pillars, and Dassault demanded absolute authority in the main pillar, the NGF. The French government backed them. The failure of the project is France's fault.
>>
>>65223315
I think recent conflicts have proven cheaper OWA munitions to be the more effective than million-dolllar UAVs.
>>
>>65223315
The company I work for is developing AI drone swarm on the side that can navigate the tightest tunnels. Currently they're looking for monetization options and retards refuse any kind of mil application. So they're mostly talking to construction and mining companies instead, like absolute mongoloids.

Are giant, million dollar drones, even the meta anymore?
>>
>>65227687
no. what are you talking about? are you trying to do this embarrassing gaslighting tactic again about how the NGF pillar which France got the lead on was somehow not the main pillar? and yet the lead wasn't enough for them, they wanted absolute authority, which is why the project failed.
>>
>>65227701
>here Germany, you can have all 4 other pillars, that are less important, you and your Spanish subsidiary. We'll take the main pillar since we have more experience regardless. What ? You want decision over the most important pillar, the only one i control, and therefore have control over all pillars ? No, i'm out.

Somehow ends up being the fault of the Frenchoids. Typical Germans as always
>>
>>65227712
Germany got the lead on 2 pillars, France on 2, Spain on 2. France got the two most important, NGF and engine.
Note, lead doesn't mean absolute control, because it was still meant as a joint project. Decisions should be made jointly. France demanded full control over the most important pillar, relegating the German side to a sub-contractor.
That is what France doesn't understand about cooperation and that is why the project failed.
>>
>>65227723
Look I know Germans are disingenuous, but your picture is wrong. EUMET GmbH is German based and Airbus Spain has serious roots in Airbus Germany. Your little picture is outdated (2020)
>>
>>65227753
>EUMET GmbH is German based
where a company is registered doesn't matter, Safran was the most important player in the Eumet Joint venture. But they got along fine with MTU and ITP because their CEO isn't a cocksucker like Eric Trappier
>and Airbus Spain has serious roots in Airbus Germany
no, it's rooted in Spanish CASA while the German Airbus branch is rooted in German DASA

Dassault deliberately made unacceptable demands and French politicians backed them, that is why the project failed.
>>
>>65227764
>where the company is registered doesn't matter
oh yeah i'm sure whoever is paying taxes to what government doesn't fucking matter hahaahha
Since where the company is based doesn't matter, offshoring is okay now ? I mean mauybe in the mind of a German. DEUTSCHLAND UBER ALLES IN DER VELT !

Also

CASA --> EADS --> Airbus Defence and space. That is based in germany, again.

I think i'm done arguing.
Dassault might be a bunch of faggots, but you Germans are so fucking annoying to work and have the gall to lie straight to someone's face.
>>
>>65227772
Eumet is just a joint venture, what really matters behind is the companies behind that joint venture, namely safran, mtu, itp. Who have facilities in france, germany, spain. And those facilities employ people, do work and pay their taxes in the respective host countries.
and no, the Spanish sector wasn't somehow magically sent to Germany.
you don't know what you are talking about.
>>
>>65227764
>their CEO isn't a cocksucker like Eric Trappier

Trappier was the only one at Dassault that was in favor of doing the FCAS with the germans. He went against his whole board, and then got fucked by airbus.

Dassault is also working on their Vortex (spaceplane project) in parallel, and they teamed up with OHB (german) and Arkadia space (spanish), and they don't seems to have any problems...
>>
>>65227779
>Trappier was the only one at Dassault that was in favor of doing the FCAS with the germans.

>1 company of the project is based in france
>1 company of the project is based in spain
>3 companies of the project is based in germany

>germans don't have the control of the program, what are you talking about, it's the fault of the frenchies !!!

You have been proven to lie, manipulate, obuscate facts.

Go enjoy your Eurofighter 2.0 (without the british that are better than you at making warplanes) that will be 20 years too late and obsolete in another 20.

Airbus is based in the Netherlands, ADS is merely a subsidiary. So by your childish logic, FCAS was primarily a Dutch project. But again, you don't know what you are talking about.

and regarding the alternatives, hopefully Germany will join GCAP, get some junior participation. Probably about the same workshare it would've got in FCAS if Dassault got its way, but for a lower price and with a better fighter in the end.

fact remains is that Dassault and the French gov provoked this outcome and you are denying objective facts.

no, as I said I'd prefer a participation in GCAP for the long-term Eurofighter replacement. But for the intermediate term an additional order of F-35A would be sensible. Not sure the pilots are that concerned about where the fighter was built when they go up against Su-35s and MiG-31s, I think they rather go in a stealthy F-35 than a non-stealthy Eurofighter or Rafale.

the thing is, dassault&france wanted to relegate the German side to sub-contractor or almost customer status while demanding equal funding which is ridiculous. Especially since the anglo/american alternatives are more capable.
>>
>>65227844
looks like your own government is more interested in an airbus based project. So a project paid by Airbus civil aviation, so money made by the french. LMAO.

You'll never get into GCAP.
>>
>>65227844
that desire to be someone bitch just to stick it to your neighbour, ensuring that you'll never be free, has to be genetic
>>
>>65227854
no, German gov hasn't made a statement on that so far + the work would be done by military ADS. You can just stop posting now, it's ok.
>>65227856
I'm merely recognizing the fact Germany likely can't design a capable fighter jet on its own in a reasonable timeframe. GCAP and F-35 are the next best options. Do you disagree with this or are you just here to talk shit?
>>
>>65227856
btw the desire not to be a bitch is why FCAS was terminated.
