#Airbus says Europe and UK should work together on future fighter jet
Britain and Europe should work together on a future combat air system, or risk further fragmenting the European defence market, Airbus (AIR.PA) defence chief Dirk Hoke said on Monday (16 July), after Britain pushed forward with its own new fighter jet programme.
Airbus and France’s Dassault Aviation (AVMD.PA) have partnered to work on a separate Franco-German future fighter programme first launched by those two countries in 2017.
Hoke, chief executive of Airbus Defence and Space, told Reuters that European industry executives backed joining forces to proceed with a combined fighter programme, once the details of Britain’s exit from the European Union had been worked out.
