Only a third of the American F-35 fighters are ready for combat missions

73

The United States' most expensive military program is in jeopardy. This was reported at a recent hearing in the House Armed Forces Committee. American lawmakers were forced to state that only a part of F-35 fighters are capable of performing all those combat missions for which they were intended.

Ellen Lord, Head of Pentagon Arms Purchasing Department, Admitted Service Information Systems fleet the latest fighters do not fully meet the requirements. Lockheed Martin and the Pentagon are still arguing over who owns the F-35 program codes, and these divisions may cast doubt on the future of the program.



Some lawmakers criticized the deal between the corporation and the state, saying that overly generous concessions in intellectual property issues threaten to lock Locked Martin as a profit-making office, but with limited liability for its mistakes.

As a result, the program has problems maintaining the combat readiness of the F-35, which looks unusual for a completely new machine, according to the United States. Only a third of the fleet of these fighters was capable of fulfilling all the tasks assigned, and such a situation could cast doubt on the ability of the military to respond to threats. Two-thirds of the fleet of F-35 fighters experience problems with financing software updates, with the supply of components, or with logistics for use in long-distance operations in connection with the repair of aircraft carriers.

        Something you are not in the opera is not in the collective farm ...
        The head of the British defense department in this regard said that the UK is doubling the fleet of F-35 fighters, purchasing 17 new fighters and thus bringing the total number of fifth generation "stealth aircraft" to 35. He added that the ordered 17 aircraft will come from the United States during 2020-2022 and will complement the 16 F-35Bs already based at Marham Air Force Base in the UK and the US.
        Earlier it was reported that all of Great Britain plans to purchase 138 aircraft of the Lockheed Martin F-35V Lightning II family. Until 2021, the kingdom government will spend more than £ 12 billion on fighter jets. At the moment, procurement has been disrupted, and new procurement dates and dates are being discussed.

      Lockheed is fine. Aircraft are delivered to customers on schedule. And they fly, they fight, they don’t fall.
      500 will be soon.
      But the Pentagon got confused with its own bureaucratic procedures.
      The hull-systems for the general check of the aircraft software in a "complex environment" have not been completed. They argue who owns the system of introspection of aircraft systems: the Pentagon, Lockheed or the customer countries.

            she does not slow down. And it ensures compliance with the requirements, the need for which is laid down in flight safety. Such programs have always been described by so many regulations that it is clear to some speed grips that seem redundant. But all the regulations were written by disasters, lives and billions that burned in seconds

          Almost everything is combat-ready. There are those who are waiting for spare parts in the squadrons. Most of those who are considered "unreadable" can fly, take bombs, missiles and fight.
          But on paper, according to "safety measures" they are considered "untested after a software upgrade", etc.

          Let me explain: the Israeli Air Force has 18 F-35 aircraft. They all fly on assignments, take part in exercises. But in the American Air Force they would be listed as "non-ready", because they did not pass any bureaucratic checks according to their regulations.

                And there is no need. It's just that sometimes posts pop up among users, "as if" talking about the presence of a secret report in front of the author's eyes.
                As for the F-35, it sometimes gives up the impression that this "super-expensive" invisibility is more than covered by the creators of the S-400 in order to calm some people in the United States. But in reality, experts stopped taking into account the skills and skill of the pilot.

                  A non-peacefully flying F35 with its small image intensifier at a large distance in the passive mode will soon detect the radiation from the station! And then it's a matter of choice: turn around or try to destroy! One cannot succeed, although it is possible to launch an anti-radar missile with a low probability of success ... Or you can use prepared tactics ... Use several aircraft, UAVs and false targets, as well as electronic warfare equipment ... And now it is up to us: but we have answers to their preparations ... I think not quite. What do you think? So it’s not so simple ... But the advantage lies with the attacking side, and it can only be leveled by competent, pre-prepared and well-developed actions and preparation ...

            Do you serve aviation? Or served? I served, and what combat readiness is, I remember. And I also remember how the pilots wrote a remark (if the PNK was rejected on flights) and did not fly. Although the route to the landfill was known by heart. And I don’t need noodles that your "heroic" flyers will agree to fly without a working complex (yes, without any working equipment). I'm not talking about amers. A combat-ready aircraft is a fully serviceable, fueled aircraft, ready to perform any combat mission intended for this type

              You have apparently forgotten a lot, even if you knew, although you don’t believe much in the latter!
              PNA systems provide information to the PNA, and the latter without this information either does not shoot at all, or switches to simplified algorithms that provide lower accuracy. And the route here is secondarily ..
              Pilots do not write failures of sighting systems, this affects the combat readiness ... All these failures are hidden and not taken into account, although they are eliminated as quickly as possible ... The military will never show that the aircraft is not really combat ready ...

        We'll take your word for it.

        In the Beaufort County, South Carolina, near the US Marine Corps Aviation Station, a fifth-generation F-35B American multi-role fighter crashed. This is with reference to an unnamed military official reports CNN. CBS News clarifies that this was the first crash of "the newest and most expensive US aircraft."

        https://www.rbc.ru/society/28/09/2018/5bae6ace9a7947679f3e7562

        On the evening of April 9, 2019, a fifth-generation Lockheed Martin F-35A Lightning II fighter from the 302nd Tactical Fighter Squadron (302 Hikotai) of the 3rd Wing (3 Koukuudan) of the Japanese Air Force was crashed over the Pacific Ocean.

        https://bmpd.livejournal.com/3603739.html

        The day before, September 8, the press service of the Nellis Air Force Base in the State of Nevada reported that Lt. Col. Eric Schulz had died in a plane crash. At the same time, the press release did not indicate which airplane the pilot flew in his last flight. This nuance violates certain rules that all US military must adhere to when covering emergency situations. Such laconicism is typical for cases when classified technology samples are tested.
        However, in the case of the Nellis base, there is no need to talk about secrecy. She is known for the fact that all foreign pilots who have to fly on American fighters are trained there. In a sense, the base resembles a courtyard and is weak for testing secret aircraft. Currently, it mainly trains F-35 pilots, which the Pentagon is actively selling to its allies around the world. With a high degree of probability, we can say that this type of fighter crashed in the desert regions of Nevada. This version is also supported by the fact that Lieutenant Colonel Schulz was one of the first pilots to master the F-35 and had vast experience in managing this aircraft, in connection with which his task was to train new pilots for the latest aircraft.

              1) F-35B marines in exercises at the US military base.
              Engine fire due to frayed fuel supply pipe.
              2) Japanese F-35A in exercises over the sea.
              Version: the pilot lost consciousness during a sharp change in altitude down.

              provided links to 2 accidents.
              Specialized media are filled with reports that Schultz was piloting a Soviet or Russian fighter, so everyone was classified.
              It is known that it was not F-35
              “I can tell you for sure that it was not an F-35 fighter,” General David Goldfein, chief of staff of the United States Air Force, told Military Times.

            You write something. We discuss. Got a topic?
            Yes, that sea, just write laziness.

            Well yes. Grumbling is not laziness. I agree.

            Well, for example:

      In the same way, you can always discuss the problems of Fu-35 and the problems of Ukraine. As long as all this exists, topics on VO will not run out.

    United States most expensive military program is in jeopardy

    The question is, what difference does it make to us? Let the partners of the minke whales have a headache ....

        This "psis" has been taken apart more than once! Are you hoping to hear / read something new?
        By the way, the topic is not for the plane, but the problems of those services, upgrades, upgrades, i.e. all related services. Nobody will offer anything fundamentally new either ... moreover, all this is subjective.

          The fact of the matter is that the Americans tried to create the first, fully integrated, universal, network-centric aircraft. Therefore, everything that concerns him causes such an interest. What would we then, do not dance on the same rake.

            This is true, therefore I am not discussing the plane as such, I consider it as an advanced experiment to test / test the concept of future "network wars". Only so far there is nothing special to watch, because the necessary infrastructure has not been created!
            So far, individual elements are being worked out ... there is nothing much to discuss.
            We have to go the same way ... we had to start yesterday. The path is not close, not particularly tested by anyone.

              No need to flaunt primeval ignorance and stupid judgments. Only we had the task to create such systems was received in 2000, the program was designed until the end of 2020. The goal of the presidential program is to equip the army with similar systems. Successfully failed. ESU TK decays on army garbage dumps from complete uselessness and inconsistency with the tasks set .. And there were several such systems, with the same result ... All of them were transformed into useless ACS of troop control ala Gerasimov ... We are in a deep ass according to ability wage a modern war, again all the holes will be plugged by people, and plugged already, as in Syria ... There are good results in air defense, but they have been traditional and laid down for a long time ... and do not relate to ground operations, but only they are won non-nuclear wars and conflicts are resolved ... successfully !!!

            And in my opinion - to cram mountains of modern electronics in a small fuselage, which is more expensive. And almost the main problem of the F-35 is the on-board equipment cooling system, which, it turns out, also requires power and space. And the further, the more.

    It makes sense to discuss the topic of the general availability of software on modern models of military equipment, its cost and license rights, the need for updates, as well as vulnerability to hacker attacks and electronic warfare. About 30 years ago, no one bothered about this, but now we must take into account that without software, an airplane is a pile of flightless iron. The experience of the Second World War shows the correctness of tactics for simplifying samples in favor of quantity.
    Whether we will return to the mass production of equipment of the sample of the 70s in the event of a major war, that is the question.

      Indeed, "about a third of finished aircraft" this year is the second or third article. Another opus from the series "not good for us, but bad for them." And when the stealth coating and the necessary engine for the SU-57 are ready, then it is a "military secret".

    The most expensive United States military program has been threatened.

    The paradox is that the most expensive US military program does not reduce the standard of living of the population, it is enough to compare the cost of health care per capita:
    Russia - 524 dollars
    USA - 9 536 dollars

    Bullshit.
    Previously, they calculated how many aircraft would be needed to destroy an air defense system, with the advent of stealth they calculated how many air defense systems would be needed to destroy an aircraft.
    No matter how much they write about the sky-ready F35s at VO, and the Japanese have once bought hundreds of F35s.
