Eurodrone is the most important UAV Defence programme of the future for Europe, the key to European and national sovereignty and independence in the management of information and intelligence as well as European Industrial independence. Airbusuniquely combines the experience, capabilities and footprint to drive with our industrial partners this strategic defence programme.

New doctrines, processes and skills need to be gradually developed in alignment with the planned arrival of Eurodrone capabilities and meeting the related technological challenges.
