Which is why BAE bailed out of EADS - BAE is going to be getting stuff from Lockheed that they wouldn't get as part of EADS.

It's about a cooperation to build some single aile Airliners.

BTW who says russian engineers couldn't contribute to the benefit of Airbus ?

Well, the dangers associated with a Russian bank buying a minority stake are limited compared to outsourcing the production of the wings to Japan, aren't they?

It appears you are not aware that large elements of the 787 and 747 Advanced are being designed in Boeing's Moscow Design Center. Likewise, elements of the 777 were designed there.

Boeing Design Center. This facility in Moscow is devoted to designing key parts and structures of commercial airplanes.
Boeing Technical Research Center. Also in Moscow, this site works with Russia's top aerospace research institutes on aerodynamics, computational fluid dynamics, prototyping, and other technologies.

Well, EADS owns 10% of Russian biggest military aircraft producer "Irkut" (producer of SU-27).
