PARIS (Reuters) - Airbus, Dassault Aviation, Indra and the Eumet joint venture between Safran and MTU Aero Engines said on Friday they had won a 3.2 billion euros ($3.4 billion) contract for the next phase of the FCAS European fighter jet programme.

The Future Combat Air System (FCAS), first announced in 2017 by French President Emmanuel Macron and then German Chancellor Angela Merkel, is designed to replace the Eurofighter and Dassault's Rafale with a combination of manned and unmanned aircraft from 2040.
