It can be seen that differences repeatedly surface in multinational programs, whether in the GCAP (to a lesser extent) or in the FCAS (to the point that the project may be called off).

Japan invited India to join the GCAP program, and I am sure France would have, though unofficially, pitched the FCAS dream.

These multinational programs sound interesting on paper, but can cause significant friction and delays, as we are seeing in the FCAS.

日本 社交儀礼でなく声かけたのかな？
