With this new management structure in place, will Europe be able to put its defense industry in order with this new management structure?
The current management structure in Europe’s defense industry is indeed complex, with various countries operating independently or in joint ventures like Airbus.
However, the success of these collaborations has been inconsistent, especially evident in the lack of a successful European tank project.
The new approach to creating a pan-European tank by the 2030s shows promise, but the fragmented nature of management within national entities poses challenges for timely and effective project execution.
It remains to be seen how this new management structure will impact the overall coordination and success of Europe’s defense industry.
