The United States Department of State approved the delivery of the fifth generation F-35 fighter to Poland. This was reported by the US Department of Defense Agency for Security and Defense Cooperation.

US State Department Approves F-35 Fifth Generation Fighter Sale to Poland




The US State Department has decided to approve the sale to Poland of 32 of the latest fifth-generation F-35 fighters, associated equipment and 33 F-135 turbojet engines developed by Pratt & Whitney. The total amount of the deal is $ 6,5 billion. This notice went to the US Congress, where it must be considered within 30 days with a final verdict on the sale. The beginning and timing of the proposed delivery are not given.

As the US administration said, the proposed sale of F-35 fighters to Poland "will help the goals of US foreign policy and national security and NATO allies."

The proposed sale of F-35 will give Poland significant defense potential to repel aggression in the region and ensure the principle of interoperability with the US military
- The Pentagon said in a statement.

As previously stated in the Ministry of National Defense of Poland, the latest American F-35 fighters should replace the MiG-29 and Su-22 countries that are already in service with the Soviet-built. At the same time, the Pentagon suggests that Warsaw will not have difficulties with the integration of American aircraft into the Polish armed forces.

              It's right. For 2019, they increased the defense budget to $ 11.44 billion. Moreover, this implies a serious increase in costs in subsequent years. No matter how "funny" it is, it's sad, but their economies are showing stable growth. Why not buy if you have something. Last year the contract for the Patriot PAC-3, this one for the F-35.

      Where did the money come from psheks ??! They rose at the expense of Europe in the 90 years, are not producing anything at the moment (not counting agricultural products). Or will they give a loan for them? Again, 35 spare parts, operation and armament are very cheap.

        Poland has developed very well all these years after joining the EU. The main merit is of course here in loans. But they were not plundered, as is often the case, but invested in the development of infrastructure. Now there are no worse roads than in Germany. A huge role in the development of Poland was played by investments. Many industries were transported from Western Europe to Poland. The standard of living and incomes of citizens have become higher than in Russia. Therefore, the Poles allow themselves to invest such a lot of money in defense.

              They are not here. Maybe they will, or maybe not. But even if they are, what are you proud of? That you were allowed to buy a squadron of US-made aircraft? Maybe try to be proud of something that you know how to do yourself? Once Poland knew how to make good planes herself, what can she do now, besides the war with monuments?
              Even if we have problems with the production of the Su-57 - these are our problems with the production of our aircraft. But what can the Poles do themselves? Clean the toilet in England? Demolish a monument to Soviet soldiers? To expose oneself without being shamed for universal ridicule once again?

              Your opponent has the right to ask the question "where does the money come from?" But your scream resembles the cry "himself durak". Or in the common people it is called to throw the arrows.

          > About the economy of Ukraine. https://echo.msk.ru/blog/v_inozemcev/2499311-echo/ The Ukrainian economy was challenged by a serious rupture of economic ties with Russia. Trade turnover fell from $ 39,6 billion in 2013 to $ 15,0 billion in 2018. Ukraine stopped buying gas from Gazprom in November 2015 and faced the loss of a significant part of its industrial potential (in the temporarily occupied territories in 2013, about a quarter of industrial production was produced). And also with the need to divert huge resources to confront the aggressor (the defense budget grew from 14,8 billion hryvnia in 2013 to 163 billion in 2018). Despite all this, according to the results of the second quarter, Ukraine this year recorded the highest GDP growth over the past three years at 4,6% compared to the same period last year; at the same time, salaries increased by 10%, investments in fixed assets - by 17,8%, and the volume of work performed in construction - by 21,2%.

          the increase in GDP is only an increase in migrant workers' translations ... salaries have grown - so it’s understandable, there’s no one to work on, so they are raised so that the last horses do not scatter across Russia and Europe ... investment in fixed assets is a sale of shares, the same Sich motor for example ... and the construction)))) so finished construction 2-5 years ago and that's it, growth ... so there’s nothing to rejoice about)))) and the fact that the military expenses were raised so this guano is complete ... raised due to the devaluation of the hryvnia, in bucks it turns out many times less, and raised due to what? social programs and loans, rather than the growth of domestic production. that’s all the approaches. read on the echo and not surprise you by playing numbers and blurring your eyes

                  what really pricked?

                  Yes, no, there was such a collision. Just not as stupid as in the picture. Alexey Isaev:
                  A regiment of Pomeranian lancers met on the border of the morning of September 1 of September 1939 and in the first half of the day led a completely traditional defensive battle. In the afternoon, the cavalrymen were ordered to launch a counterattack and, taking advantage of the enemy’s transition as a result of this blow to defense, retreat. A maneuverable detachment was allocated for the counterattack (the 1 and 2 squadrons and two platoons of the 3 and 4 squadrons), he had to go to the 19.00 behind the rear of the German infantry, attack it, and then retreat to the line of fortifications in the area Rytel, occupied by Polish infantry.

                  However, a workaround led to unexpected results for both sides. The head outpost of the detachment discovered a battalion of German infantry, located on a halt at 300 – 400 m from the edge of the forest. The Poles decided to attack this enemy on horseback, using the effect of surprise.

                  Lancers swiftly rushed to the enemy. The calculation of the surprise of the attack turned out to be true: the Germans who did not expect the attack rushed in a panic all over the field. Cavalry mercilessly chopped running infantrymen with sabers. Interrupted the triumph of the cavalry hitherto hidden in the forest armored vehicles. Having left behind the trees, these armored vehicles opened machine-gun fire. In addition to the armored car, one gun of the Germans also opened fire. Now the Poles swept across the field under deadly fire.

                  Suffering heavy losses, the cavalry retreated behind the nearest wooded ridge, where barely half of the riders participating in the attack gathered. However, the losses in the cavalry attack were much less than you could imagine from the description of the battle. Three officers were killed (including the commander of the regiment, Colonel Mastalezh) and 23 lancers, one officer and about 50 lancers were seriously injured.

                  Polish cavalrymen did not attack the tanks, but themselves were attacked by armored vehicles in the process of cutting a gaping battalion. In a similar situation, ordinary infantry or dismounted cavalry would have suffered quite comparable losses.

                    Poland also had it in 1939.

                    And it is not.
                    Of course, we went in battle in a hurry, like ours, horses were used as transport, no one with peaks at the tanks did not rush. But the equipment of the Poles, including armored vehicles, was low.

            You did not understand. Penguins will only have to be intercepted. when someone in Poland gives them orders to strike Russia. But the threat of a missile strike on Poland with the use of nuclear weapons will keep from such an order of any Pole. Nothing is weirder than intercepting bullets or arrows. It’s easier and more reliable to kill the shooter. The doctrine of nuclear deterrence is based on that.

In addition to stationary radars, almost all AWACS are located there. In short, all the most modern air defense systems in service. No other country in the world has such a complex of air defense measures and capabilities. Stop chopping off more than one "hand".

                    The second part of your comment contradicts the first. That's why I explain that stealth is "invisible" while it is far from the radar. It is contraindicated for him to appear next to air defense radars, like the same F-16, but from afar it is safer to launch the same HARM or planning bomb on the radar. To fly over air defense positions and throw uncontrollable poop with impunity, as the US military-industrial complex and individual commentators assure, this is an advertising slogan and not a real tactic of use.

      That's why they stopped flying in Syria when the S-300 was brought up. Even the message was how the S-300 took the F-35 four for escort and they screwed. In Yandex, enter and read it yourself, if such is not gullible.

      yeah, stopped, so big, but you believe in fairy tales ...

      If you do not know, then let it be fairy tales for you.
