This article describes how EADS is moving forward on a development contract for UAV for Germany, Spain, and France. They have finished the study phase and are now working on risk reduction. Ultimately, if all things go well they will move into production of a UAV for all three nations. There is no discussion as to how they will integrate the requirements of the different countries, or perhaps they will all accept the same solution. As in most programs EADS will have to produce a certain number of aircraft to make back some of the money sunk into the development.
