Según Defense News,EADS necesita respuesta de Francia, Alemania y España, para saber si sigue con el desarrollo del programa de UAV Talarion.
EADS está financiando el proyecto con sus propios medios, pero solo puede hacerlo hasta mitad de 2010, por lo que necesita una respuesta, según el presidente de EADS. El año pasado ya se produjo un vuelo con éxito del demostrador UAV Barracuda, de propulsión jet. EADS remitió una propuesta a Francia, Alemania y España para el desarrollo del UAV Talarion. Este costaría unos 1,4 billones de euros, 380 millones de desarrollo hasta 2014. EADS piensa que este UAV es una buena oportunidad para que Europa consiga autonomía en este campo, que actualmente lideran sees the Advanced UAV project as a means of acquiring an autonomous European capability in the next generation of medium altitude long endurance (MALE) drones, which would break a virtual lock on the market held by Israeli and U.S. industry.
