They should replace the Technical Platforms, offering more autonomy and flexibility. ò Traditional RTD projects (Critical Technologies) and CRAFT projects will remain (with some adaptations). ò SMEs, as usually in aeronautics, should not concentrate on CRAFT projects, but should set up specific targeted project and participate to integrated projects.
