Germany confident Eurofighter supplier issue can be resolved soon
Germany said on Wednesday it hoped to resolve the restricted supply of certain components for its fleet of 129 Eurofighter jets in coming weeks, and the issue should not derail its plans to resume air policing in the Baltic region from September. Defence Ministry spokesman Colonel Holger Neumann told reporters the German air force was able to meet its military requirements despite the issue with components needed for the warplane's self-protection system. The component issue, first reported by Spiegel Online on Tuesday, centres on a so-called "grease nipple" that is part of the system that cools the wingtip pods that house elements of the self-protection system, which was designed by BAE Systems.

Eurofighter urges U.S. not use nuclear certification to "leverage" German jets bid
The head of Eurofighter on Wednesday said he did not expect the United States to slow certification of the European fighter's ability to carry nuclear weapons as a way to influence a competition to replace Germany's aging 90 Tornado jets. The Eurofighter is a joint project between British defence group BAE, European airplane maker Airbus and Italy's Leonardo. Airbus and Eurofighter on Tuesday submitted six binders of information to the German defence ministry, which has said it will prioritize a European fighter, but has also asked for information about the Lockheed Martin F-35 fighter jet and Boeing Co (NYSE: BA - news) 's F-15E and F/A-18E/F jets.

German defence ministry gets bids for Tornado fighter jet replacement
The German defence ministry on Tuesday received bids from Airbus and the U.S. government - representing Lockheed Martin (Swiss: LMT.SW - news) and Boeing (Swiss: BA-USD.SW - news) - for the replacement of its fleet of 90 ageing Tornado fighter jets that were developed in the 1960s. The competition, worth billions of euros to the winning bidder, could have consequences for a separate, fledgling Franco-German programme to develop a next generation Eurofighter that will eventually replace the Eurofighter Typhoon. Airbus is pitching the Eurofighter, a joint programme with Britain's BAE Systems (LSE: BA.L - news) and Italy's Leonardo, and says it could take over the Tornado missions when that aircraft is phased out starting in 2025.
