Before they do this they need to get a handle on their nomenclature.

ACF (Avion de combat du futur) will replace the NGF (New Generation Fighter). What do they do then? Replace the ACF with the ENGF (Even Newer Generation Fighter)?

They need to implement a proper versioning scheme.

Who cares? It's just a program name.
