1. Why Research and Industrial Cooperation ?
2. Economical aspects of Cooperation in Europe
3. Strategic autonomy and technological excellence
4. Development of combat aircraft : a comprehensive process
7
In which cases is the cooperation justified?
Critical Mass :
Investments are too high to be borne by a single country ;
Needs of several countries for the same equipment,
Important series ;
Complex environment :
Various stakeholders, multiple funding sources, deferent legal jurisdictions, procurement processes;
Efficient Cooperation :
Golden rules : simple organization of the cooperation, lean processes, single point of leadership, single set of
specifications;
Experience, Skills and Know-How :
A single contractor responsible for the execution of the main contract;
Selection of partners in order to derive the greatest benefit from existing technological niches and Know- How's;
Competitiveness :
Identification of new ways to reduce costs while coping within a given budget ;
Ambition of expending the market outside the first circle of cooperation ;
Finance :
Any country with the ambition to participate in the program must be willing to contribute to its financing;

Scientific cooperation - Clean Sky
A large European aeronautical research programme for greener aviation
Equally shared between European Commission and
aeronautical industry
Clean Sky I over the period 2008 – 2016
Clean Sky II over the period 2014 – 2024
Develop and mature cutting-edge “clean” technologies for
air transport tested on Integrated Technology Demonstrators
and Innovative Aircraft Demonstration Programmes
14
Scientific cooperation - MMT
Man Machine Teaming:
the future of combat air systems
• Man Machine Teaming is a research project initiated and financed by
the French defense procurement agency (DGA) and led by Dassault
Aviation and Thales.
• This study seeks to implement artificial intelligence into aeronautic
systems for new man-machine relationships.
• Its specificity is to gather startups and SMEs into an ecosystem missioned to
develop technological innovations and open new perspectives for the
future of Combat Air Systems.
• The project was launched in March 2018.

Industrial cooperation
MALE RPAS
(Medium Altitude Long Endurance
Remotely Piloted Aircraft System)
Airbus Defense & Space, Leonardo and Dassault
Aviation are conducting a 2-year definition study to
develop a MALE drone.
This study was notified in 2016 by the OCCAR
(Organisation for Joint Armament Co-operation), in
conjuction with the French, German, Italian and Spanish
Ministries of Defense.
Development programme to be launched in 2019.
A full-scale model of the Euro-MALE RPAS was unveiled
at the ILA Berlin airshow on April 26, 2018.

Industrial cooperation - FCAS
June 2018 : a Franco-German
Letter of Intent signed on a
Future Combat Air System
(FCAS) / Système de Combat
Aérien du Futur (SCAF)
November 2018 : Franco-
German decision to start a
Joint Concept Study and to
launch demonstrators
programmes mid-2019
• DASSAULT AVIATION Prime
Contractor for the Next
Generation Fighter
• High level agreement
signed in April 2018 between
Dassault Aviation and Airbus
• Demonstrators programmes

Conclusion
Cooperation in Defence Aeronautics is a fact
Best interest for European countries :
Operational sovereignty;
Autonomous operations for the armed forces;
Better operational cooperation between Air Forces;
Economical returns.
Industrial Cooperation in Europe is a reality
Should be based on “best expertise and Know-How” criteria;
Research and Development is Key;
Should be the obvious first choice for European Countries procurement.
