The Italian government fully supports Germany's participation in the Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP), countering claims of opposition. Italy labeled reports as misleading, asserting its long-standing position favoring Germany's involvement. Rome had initially suggested observer status for Germany to facilitate integration without disrupting project timelines. This stance was reiterated during a recent videoconference with partners. Italy views Germany's participation as a positive opportunity for the international military aviation project, which aims to develop a next-generation fighter jet by 2035, involving key industrial partners from Italy, the UK, and Japan.
