  Dassault dévoile le remplaçant du Rafale

  Le salon Euronaval (Le Bourget, 23 au 26 octobre 2018), est l'occasion pour l'avionneur de Saint-Cloud de lever un coin de voile sur son concept de « New Generation Fighter ». Ce NGF est destiné à occuper une place essentielle dans le projet franco-allemand SCAF (Système de Combat Aérien Futur) développé par Airbus et Dassault, et dont la France (comprendre Dassault) aura la maitrise d'oeuvre. La maquette présentée sur le stand Dassault à Euronaval montre un avion piloté, sans dérive, sans canard, avec des entrées d'air trapézoïdales à la mode du F-22. L'accent est mis sur la furtivité et l'appareil disposerait en bonne logique d'une soute pour emporter son armement. Les équations qui dictent la furtivité aux ondes électromagnétiques étant les mêmes pour tout le monde, il n'est pas étonnant que les avions existant ou en projet reprennent les mêmes solutions. La maquette de Dassault se distingue par l'absence de dérive : l'avionneur français maîtrise le sujet depuis qu'il fait voler le Neuron. Le démonstrateur de drone de combat lui a également mis le pied à l'étrier en matière de furtivité. Le NGF ayant vocation à succéder au Rafale, il devrait logiquement exister en deux versions : terrestre et embarquée. Ce qui explique sa présence au salon Euronaval...
