The process of selecting a software development environment for the embedded software of a large, complex military aircraft project can be long and costly. The process adopted on the European Fighter Aircraft (EFA) project by British Aerospace (BAe) is described, from the initial research and prototyping exercises performed in the seventies to the demonstration of the technology on the experimental aircraft project and finally leading to the collaboration with the Eurofighter partner companies (EPC's), building on European software experience to specify, procure, and release the EFA software development environment (EFA SDE). Issues arising within the EF forum that could influence the development of SDE's for future military aircraft projects are described.
