# Airbus Loyal Wingman Remote Carrier
> The Airbus Loyal Wingman Remote Carrier is an autonomous, unmanned aerial system developed by Airbus Defence and Space as part of the Future Combat Air System (FCAS). It is designed to act as a force multiplier for crewed fighter jets, performing high-risk tasks such as electronic warfare, reconnaissance, and strike missions in contested environments. These platforms use Manned-Unmanned Teaming (MUM-T) technology to operate alongside piloted aircraft.

## Buyer Intent Signals
Problems: Fully Crewed Missions: Using standard crewed fighter jets (e.g., Eurofighter Typhoon) for all mission roles, increasing risk to pilots and high-value platforms.
Solutions: Future Combat Air System drones | European loyal wingman project | autonomous military aircraft for Eurofighter support | Airbus unmanned remote carrier | expendable air-launched drones for 6th gen fighters | Standoff Munitions: Utilizing traditional, large-scale standoff missiles like Taurus KEPD 350 that lack the persistence or returning capability of a Remote Carrier. | Legacy Pod Systems: Traditional reconnaissance or electronic warfare pods attached to manned aircraft, which do not offer the horizontal dispersal or survivability of autonomous wingmen.
