France has announced a thrilling plan to create a new uncrewed combat air vehicle (UCAV), a type of drone that will work alongside the upcoming Rafale F5 fighter jet. This is part of a new vision for the French Air and Space Force. The project will be led by Dassault Aviation, a company known for its innovative aircraft, including the previous nEUROn UCAV, which has already been tested alongside crewed fighter jets.
The announcement came from France’s Minister of the Armed Forces, Sébastien Lecornu, during a special ceremony celebrating 60 years of the French Strategic Air Forces (FAS) at the Saint-Dizier Air Base. This marks an important moment in France’s military aviation history.
