The US Marine Corps has conducted successful operational tests of a single precision approach and landing system (JPALS), reports Flot.com.

In the United States tested a new system for landing on aircraft carriers


For testing was chosen universal landing ship (UDC) "Wasp". Testing of the JPALS system was carried out in the Pacific Ocean at sea state up to 5 points. The system guided the landing of F-35B fighters with a shortened take-off and vertical landing, which will soon form the basis of the airborne groups of amphibious ships that have a shorter flight deck in comparison with aircraft carriers.

The tests are fully successful.

JPALS is being developed since the second half of the 2000s. It consists of global (GPS) and local positioning systems, as well as automatic data exchange equipment with landing planes.

According to military experts, the new equipment on aircraft carriers and UDC in the future will allow to abandon the radar, which are now used for the air situation. In addition, the use of the JPALS system will reduce the time between aircraft landings due to the refusal to negotiate with dispatchers.

Serial production of the system is scheduled to begin next year.

    We have something to learn from them, and not ask stupid questions, especially when it comes to the fleet as such and not to the collection of tugboats mixed with a pair of missile yachts!

            It is unlikely that the Americans completely abandon the giant aircraft carriers. “Flying radars” and “tankers” can only take off from such.
            But small aircraft carriers can complement the fleet. And it will be a very effective AUG, because there will be able to launch several aircraft at the same time, unlike a single super-aircraft carrier. And the group itself, if necessary, can be divided into several small fleets.
            We need to take similar small aircraft carriers into service.

    JPALS is being developed since the second half of the 2000s. It consists of global (GPS) and local positioning systems, as well as automatic data exchange equipment with landing planes.

    Preliminary experiments with F / a - 18A of the U.S. Navy, a joint precision approach and landing system (JPAARS) on an aircraft carrier, were completed in 2000. Ground-based flight experiments have also been completed, and this is also the first GPS-based JPARS automatic landing test. These experiments show that accuracy achieved landing on the ship within the required 1 meter. The landing system is based on land and on ships, and Raytheon is the main Contractor. The ground-based system is comparable to the civilian one (LANAS), which uses one side of the VHF data channel to send differential GS data to correct errors of an approaching aircraft, while shipborne JPARS use a two-way VHF data communication that determines the position of the vessel and transmits it GPS data aboard the aircraft along with its yaw, pitch, yaw, yaw and angular velocity, while the aircraft also transmits GPS data to the ship. 13. 07

    Landing on GPS is cool, technologically advanced and very good from all sides. With all but one. If tomorrow the war is not exactly tomorrow, then the Americans will immediately begin to blame both our GLONASS and the Chinese Baida (Beidou, as you like). And we will probably start to throw down their GPS. And everything will depend on the decision of the Chinese. In any case, after the start of a really big Armageddian, and not a local mess like “Persian Glass Storm”, it’s unlikely to land on GPS. So this product is for small, i.e. not only with us wars, but with the Papuans cosmically horseless. But from the old fully self-sufficient drive systems is hardly worth refusing.
    I think so...

      Firstly, global war is still a rare occurrence in our world. And it is unlikely, and the next war against the Papuans is a very probable and frequent occurrence.
      Secondly, they can prepare a large number of spare GPS satellites in order to replenish the grouping.

        In a global war, launch sites will also be destroyed. And the Papuans ... in short, they will not touch the companions. laughing hi

          The USA has an air launch system. You can let it go from anywhere. Of course, satellites will need to be made special. But you can crank it up

      How to bring down satellites? They are at a great height, 20-25 km. About drones, too, thought so and that the output. Everything that was supposedly supposed to work will not work, just as evil works best.

          If you take down the satellites and the debris from them, they will bring out all the others located in one orbit.

      It is possible with the help of ZhPS to land their aircraft in our Arkhangelsk.

      we will surely start dropping their GPS.

      I wonder what way? In the course at what altitude do navigation satellites fly?

        Naturally not kinetic way. For example, with the help of signal suppression (it is known that it was already working) or disabling satellites with the help of directional electromagnetic radiation (which was probably already tried).

    Well, when the drones bring to mind, then they may recall a system in which the runway is not needed at all - the plane clings to the crane's manipulators and is carried out overboard the ship on an arrow. Conversely - according to the same pattern - it hung, picked up on the deck. Unfortunately with live pilots - the number did not go through.

      I somehow drove a network to Murmansk .. a deck, for a helipad .. In Karelia my gazelle (then still) traffic cop stops .. asks .. what are you carrying? I told him the net ... He perked up ... he caught the poacher ... Helicopter ... How's that - asking? I answer .. Well ... the weather is bad, the helicopter can’t land on the deck, it flies up with its net and it is lowered onto the deck .., he mumbled something knowingly, gave the docks and I rushed off to Murmansk ..

    Realists set real goals and achieve them. Everyone else, in an attempt to at least somehow catch / contrast themselves, is trying to pretend! But the reality is ... What in the USSR, what in the Russian Federation, carrier-based aviation, one can say from the word at all, is absent. Even "kuzya" is no more than just an attempt to "appear". There are real pilots capable of taking off and landing planes on a ship, which is in the USSR, which, especially in Russia, is practically non-existent. You can say a little more than astronauts ...

      Usa is a sea power. It has never really fought on earth. Our fleet is not as far behind as their military base, tactics and strategy for conducting ground battles. In short .. without a fleet they are zero, against a strong enemy. You can argue with me stubbornly with me about this .., but the story says just that.
      So, you can build iron .. buy .., and the ability to get skills without practice is not possible.

    Nevertheless, such news suggests that they are actively preparing for war. And I even know why, even as you say, they do not know how to fight on earth very well.
