Acting on behalf of the three nations, the French DGA procurement agency awarded an Indra-led consortium to develop sensors for the New Generation Fighter (NGF) and the Remote Carrier (RC) ‘loyal wingman’ that, along with the Air Combat Cloud (ACC) network, make up the NGWS element of the FCAS/SCAF system of systems. Spain’s Indra will be joined in the endeavour by France’s Thales and Germany’s Future Combat Mission System (FCMS) consortium of Hensoldt, Diehl Defence, ESG, and Rohde & Schwarz.
