German minister lauds progress on FCAS fighter jet project with France

Germany and France have come a long way on the FCAS fighter jet programme and MGCS tank system, and will decide who does what for the European defence projects by the end of the year, German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius said in Berlin on Tuesday.

"We will present it in January. We'll be very far along by then," said Pistorius about the projects.
