Pabrikan pesawat asal Prancis, Dassault Aviation menyatakan telah memperlihatkan pesawat tempur tak berawak rancangan asli Eropa, Neuron, kepada para mitra industrinya dari enam negara Eropa di Paris, Jumat (20/1/2012). Drone ini akan mulai menjalani uji terbang pada bulan Juni mendatang.[7][8][9]
Kendaraan Udara Tempur Tak Berawak (UCAV) seberat lima ton, dengan desain sayap delta itu, dirancang untuk melengkapi negara-negara Eropa dengan armada drone yang setara dengan milik Amerika Serikat yang telah terbukti efektif di berbagai medan pertempuran.[10][11][12]
Dassault memimpin program pembuatan Neuron ini, yang dilakukan bersama dengan produsen pesawat Saab dari Swedia, Alenia dari Italia, RUAG dari Swiss, Hellenic Aerospace Industry dari Yunani, dan raksasa industri dirgantara Eropa, EADS.[13][14][15][16][17][18]
Menurut Dassault, uji terbang akan dilakukan mulai pertengahan tahun ini selama dua tahun. Baru setelah itu akan diputuskan apakah pesawat ini akan diproduksi massal untuk memenuhi kebutuhan militer regional. Sekilas, bentuk Neuron mengingatkan pada pesawat pengebom B-2 Spirit buatan AS.[19][20][21][22][23]

- Dassault Aviation - Logiduc program. The precursor to the nEUROn. The Petit Duc ("European Scops Owl"), codenamed AVE-D, was the first stealth unmanned aircraft to fly in Europe on July 18, 2000. It was followed by the AVE-C Moyen Duc ("Long-eared Owl") in 2001. The third and final version Grand Duc ("Eurasian Eagle Owl") would become the multinational nEUROn.
