Future multirole light aircraft
Research actions implemented via actual cost grants · EDF-RA
What this call funds
This call funds research and design work for a new low-cost, single-engine light military aircraft that can perform ground support, surveillance, light attack, and anti-drone missions. It aims to build on existing European technologies rather than duplicating them, reducing development risk while filling a gap left by ageing light aircraft fleets. Funded activities are studies and design work, not full-scale production.
