The MBDA-led HYpersonic Defence Interceptor Study (HYDIS2) consortium’s proposal for an examination of hypersonic defence concepts has been proposed for funding by the European Commission.

Air, naval and space-based early warning projects are among the most high-profile efforts to receive funding.

Airbus is to lead a consortium of 33 companies to study the potential development of a future European airlifter to operate alongside the A400M.
