Abstract
For the fatigue design of Eurofighter the participating European A/C industry has not adopted a complete damage tolerance procedure as used by the US industry. The design principles are based on the conventional safe life concept but supplemented with some damage tolerance aspects. This brief overview contains information about the Eurofighter history and industrial organisations. The general fatigue requirements, the fatigue design philosophy as well as the fatigue justification will be described.
