The Bundeswehr plans to purchase non-occupied combat aircraft, so-called »Loyal Wingman«. These fighter bomber drones are to operate with the Eurofighter. Three German consortia are in position for this.
One of the lessons from the Russian war of aggression: The Bundeswehr has considerable catching-up needs in the field of drones. After Helsing and Stark Defence, an agreement with another armament giant is now to be concluded for the procurement of unmanned flying objects.
Boeing wants a contract from the Bundeswehr for its combat drone. For this, the US aviation company has now sought Rheinmetall as a partner, but its CEO Papperger is struck by strange omissions.
Helsing had bought the aircraft builder Grob for the Bundeswehr tender. But now Rheinmetall could be preferred - at a time when Chef Papperger provides criticism.
According to Spiegel: contract worth almost 300 million euros in prospect.
