The Future Combat Air System (FCAS) is one of the largest, most exciting and challenging programmes within Defence - to design and deliver a Future Combat Air Programme for the RAF in record time. The key cornerstone of FCAS is the Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP), which sees the UK working with international partners in Italy and Japan to deliver a future combat air platform.
