  L'Allemagne commande 38 avions de chasse Eurofighter à Airbus

  Le parlement allemand a donné son feu vert à un investissement de 5,4 milliards d'euros pour 38 avions de chasse de quatrième génération pour la Luftwaffe. Airbus salue une commande qui représente 100.000 emplois en Europe. Par Anne Bauer Publié le 5 nov. 2020 à 21:13Mis à jour le 5 nov. 2020 à 21:14 La commission budgétaire du Parlement allemand a approuvé un contrat d'achat de 38 avions de combat Eurofighter à Airbus pour un montant évalué à 5,4 milliards d'euros. Un contrat très attendu par le constructeur aéronautique, éprouvé par la crise du covid. Pour la Luftwaffe, l'armée de l'air allemande, il s'agit d'une première tranche sur un objectif de commandes à long terme de 93 Eurofighter ainsi que de 45 F-18 auprès de Boeing. 5,4 milliards d'euros Le président d'Airbus Defense and Space, Dirk Hoke, s'est réjoui de cette décision. « La décision du Bundestag d'acheter 38 Eurofighters de dernière génération est une bonne décision pour l'armée allemande mais aussi pour l'Europe et l'industrie de défense européenne », a-t-il déclaré, en soulignant que plus de 100.000 emplois dépendent d'une telle commande. Il a aussi déclaré que ce soutien affirmé de l'Allemagne au programme Eurofighter était un bon signal pour la crédibilité des campagnes à l'exportation en cours, notamment en Finlande et en Suisse. De son côté, le groupe britannique BAE Systems, partenaire de l'Eurofighter, a aussi salué cette décision : « l'engagement pris aujourd'hui par la Luftwaffe d'acheter 38 avions Eurofighter renforce le rôle de Typhoon au coeur de la défense européenne pour les décennies à venir. Notre équipe au Royaume-Uni est prête à travailler aux côtés de nos partenaires à travers l'Europe pour honorer nos engagements ». Une confirmation européenne La commande allemande est importante car elle grave dans le marbre l'abandon de la tentation d'acheter le F-35, l'avion de chasse de Lockheed Martin, que les Etats-Unis voulaient à tout prix vendre à Berlin. Par ailleurs, les 38 appareils seront d'une quatrième génération et vont embarquer de nombreuses nouvelles technologies, lesquelles vont préparer la route vers le Futur système de combat aérien franco-allemand qui doit prendre la relève vers 2040. Gr'ce au feu vert du Parlement allemand, le contrat Quadriga sera signé en novembre. L'arrivée des 38 nouveaux appareils devrait intervenir entre 2025 et 2030, en remplacement d'Eurofighters de première génération. Pour l'avionneur et ses partenaires européens, la commande tombe à pic alors que 570 appareils ont été livrés, dont 143 à l'Allemagne, sur 623 exemplaires commandés. https://www.lesechos.fr/industrie-services/air-defense/lallemagne-commande-38-avions-de-chasse-eurofighter-a-airbus-1262506
