Dassault's later NGF concept, seen here flanked by a Rafale and a Falcon 10X cabin mock-up, remains a relatively small aircraft - significantly smaller than Airbus' version of NGF, much smaller than the US NGAD is likely to be, and dwarfed by the rival Anglo-Italian-Japanese GCAP concept

When the second Dassault NGF concept was unveiled at the 2019 Paris Air Salon, the full-scale mock-up was displayed next to models of the Airbus recoverable remote carrier, and MBDA's expendable remote carrier

Airbus’s FCAS concept is very different from the NGF concept shown by Dassault. As things stand, the French company has design leadership for the manned fighter
This Hensoldt impression of the Airbus NGF concept is a two-seater, with conventional, non-stealth engine nozzles and relatively closely spaced engines, leaving little space for internal weapons bays. The nose contours leave space for a large AESA radar antenna

LAUNCHING THE demonstrator phase for the Systeme de Combat Aerien du Futur (SCAF; Future Combat Air System), the French, German and Spanish governments have awarded the initial framework contracts (Phase 1A) to a consortium comprising programme leaders Dassault Aviation and Airbus, along with project partners MBDA, MTU Aero Engines, Safran and Thales.
Dassault's NGF concept has widely spaced, highly canted tailfins, and arrow wing, and forward-swept intakes like those on the F-35. The aircraft is the smallest and most distinctive of the sixth-generation fighter concepts we have seen so far on

Competition to develop a sixth-generation fighter is seeing many designs being proposed. European nations are keen not to get left behind with their own programmes

The NGWS fighter is a 'system of systems' approach that will incorporate swarming Remote Carrier loyal wingman drones
Recoverable remote carriers surround the Airbus NGF concept. The Airbus concept is larger than those shown by Dassault, better optimised for long-range and larger payloads

Dassault's original NGF concept was notably a small and radical design, tailless, packed with LO features, and sized to be carrier compatible. Six years later, the NGWS partners still use CGIs and illustrations of different NGF configurations!
