Europe's most ambitious €100B sixth-generation fighter program just officially imploded.

Well, it wasn't a lack of engineering talent. It was a clash of egos... national egos and industrial intellectual property control, to be exact. Dassault absolutely refused to compromise on the lead development role, while Airbus fought fiercely for an equal technology transfer split. 1/2
