    Accord franco-germano-espagnol sur le Système de Combat Aérien du Futur (SCAF)

    Les trois pays seraient parvenus à un accord général sur les prochaines étapes de développement du futur avion de combat européen, le développement et la conception d'un démonstrateur (prévu pour 2026-2027). Selon l'agence Reuters, ils devraient établir une liste des droits de propriété intellectuelle indiquant les droits ouverts à tous et ceux qui resteront au sein des entreprises concernées comme l'a confirmé la ministre des Armées, Florence Parly, auditionnée par la commission de la Défense nationale et des forces armées de l'Assemblée nationale mardi 4 mai : « aujourd'hui, les discussions se poursuivent essentiellement sur les clauses de protection et de partage de la propriété industrielle. (...) L'objectif, c'est de pouvoir notifier dans le courant de l'année 2021 l'ensemble de ces travaux, en tenant compte du fait qu'il y a une vacance parlementaire en Allemagne du fait des élections fédérales, et que donc si nous voulons être à l'heure en 2026 et en 2040, il nous faut aussi être à l'heure dans les prochaines semaines (...) nous avons évidemment tous l'espoir d'aboutir extrêmement vite, ce sont des clauses qui sont très importantes donc vous comprendrez que nous y passions le temps nécessaires ».
