Each EU-member has a limited budget controlled by some national bureaucrats. If those are much better than those in another country is questionable at least. Such multinational institution can set up in a EU country elected from the participants. Such was done with good success many times before. I remember about the European space activities, Ariane, Galileo a.s.o. Out of range for most European-countries to do it alone.
The Netherlands alone will never have the money to develop stealth technology, despite capable heads there. None will throw money in without a true chance of success or customers for that in the end. If Europe is in need of 3+ different MBTs, FFs or SSs to be competitive on the world market becomes more and more questionable. Participants on such products will get the expertise related to that and a fair production-share related to the procured numbers including exports. Those members are “shareholders” too to some degree.
But, Sure! I agree with that! And I was also agreeing with what Aurel was saying: “it only finances administration instead of research.”
I’m afraid that a “common fund” won’t be capable of being efficient. In your case you expect that this fund will be efficient. I don’t.
But otherwise, I agree that ACTUALLY putting workable capacities in common is a good move…
And I like well the idea of a “sharholders” concept…
