Although Sweden's Saab AB is not a party to the trio's declaration, "we support the idea of a MALE program in Europe, as long as it's a large aircraft" Lennart Sindahl, Saab's Executive Vice-President, told defense-aerospace.com June 16
"EuroHawk GmbH, Northrop Grumman and EADS remain fully committed to the Euro Hawk program of record, and the critical capabilities the system will provide the German armed forces and its allies."
This bureaucratic obstacle was not expected. Three years ago the "Eurohawk” RQ-4 UAV made its maiden flight in the United States and then the problems began. This first Euro Hawk was delayed (by over a year) flying to Europe because European aviation authorities became alarmed at the danger of UAVs flying in the same air space with manned aircraft. The aviation regulators had to be convinced that the RQ-4 could be brought safely through U S , British and German air space. It was delivered to Germany in 2011 but has been grounded because of local aviation authorities concerns over flight safety."
