European Defence Fund

The European Defence Fund (EDF) is an initiative by the European Union to boost the defense capabilities of member states. It aims to enhance collaboration in military research and technology development, funding projects that promote innovation and efficiency in defense. By pooling resources and expertise, the EDF seeks to increase Europe’s defense autonomy and strengthen its ability to respond to security challenges. The fund supports both national and joint defense projects, ultimately fostering a more integrated and capable European defense industry. This initiative emphasizes strategic cooperation among EU nations to ensure a safer and more secure Europe.
