Rheinmetall has officially partnered with Boeing to offer the MQ-28 Ghost Bat uncrewed aircraft to the German Armed Forces, the Bundeswehr. This proposal aims to meet Germany's requirements for a future loyal wingman platform. The advanced drone is designed to operate in tandem with crewed fighter jets, enhancing their sensor range and mission capabilities. If selected, the partnership would leverage Rheinmetall's German facilities for production and logistical support. The offer positions the MQ-28 as a significant contender for Germany's future combat air system.
