THE HUMAN MACHINE INTERFACE

Refreshed cockpit displays and controls which will enable more demanding missions in the future, whilst ensuring full interoperability with cooperating assets in the air and over land and sea.

ELECTRONIC WARFARE Mission System development will maintain Eurofighter’s leading-edge capability by ensuring it has the Electronic Warfare capability that will be required in the highly contested and congested future operating environment.

MISSION SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

This will support the generation, transmission and utilisation of ever increasing amounts of digital data, both on-board (via advanced multi-spectral sensors) and off-board (via high performance tactical datalinks), whilst remaining resilient to anticipated cyber threats.

ENGINE PERFORMANCE

In terms of the EJ200 engine, the focus is on four key areas: thrust growth; range and persistence with increased parts life; survivability as well as control system enhancements.

OPERATIONAL FLEXIBILITY

Applying new adaptive power and cooling techniques and facilitating the agile integration of advanced weapons, thereby enabling more flexible store confi-gurations to be flown.
