European Future Advanced Rotorcraft (EuroFAR) was a proposed tiltrotor aircraft that was pursued during the 1980s and 1990s. It was a collaborative programme undertaken by the EuroFAR consortium, which comprised Aerospatiale, Agusta, Aeritalia, Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm, Westland, and Construcciones Aeronáuticas SA (CASA). Work on EuroFAR started during the mid 1980s in response to the innovative Bell-Boeing V-22 Osprey, a military-orientated tiltrotor. A distinct difference of EuroFAR was the primary pursuit of the civilian market, although some considerations were made towards its potential military operation as well. The programme was officially launched in late 1987, sponsored by the European technological research programme Eureka. Work progressed to the second phase in early 1994. By this point, the consortium was aware of the competing Bell BA609 as well as the V-22; interest in other platforms, such as compound helicopters, drew attention away from EuroFAR. During the late 1990s, work was abandoned in favour of other initiatives. (en) |
