Dassault NEUROn - Program Goals

Program Goals

The program has three stated goals:

  1. To maintain and develop the skills of the participating European aerospace companies' design offices, which will not see any other new fighter programs before 2030 now that the Rafale, Eurofighter and Gripen projects are all complete or well underway.
  2. To investigate and validate technologies that will be needed by 2015 to design next-generation combat aircraft.
  3. To validate an innovative cooperation process by establishing a European industry team responsible for developing next-generation combat aircraft.
