Germany has advanced the program to build its own sixth generation stealth jet fighter from concept to the initial working stage.<\/p>\n

FCAS will replace the Luftwaffe\u2019s aging fleet of Panavia Tornado fighter bombers and complement the Luftwaffe\u2019s Eurofighter Typhoon air superiority fighters.<\/p>\n

FCAS will likely be a twin-engine, twin-tail aircraft piloted by two crewmen. The Bundeswehr (federal German armed forces) plans for FCAS to be operational between 2030 to 2040.<\/p>\n

FCAS will be a \u201csystem of systems\u201d that combines manned and unmanned aircraft into one operational unit.<\/p>\n
