Airbus may join the UK, Japan, and Italy in developing a next-generation fighter jet after the failure of the Franco-German project. CEO Guillaume Faury mentioned that Germany is exploring partnerships with other nations. The Global Combat Air Programme has already secured over $5.5 billion in funding, aiming for a 2035 service entry. Faury emphasized the importance of a sixth-generation fighter for Europe and expressed Airbus's commitment to cooperation in this endeavor. The Franco-German project collapsed due to design disagreements, leading Dassault Aviation to pursue its own path with France.
