Australian Defense Ministry confirms intention to purchase F-100 Fighter X-NUMX Fighter X-NUMX from the USA

148

The Australian Department of Defense announced its intention to acquire all 100 units previously planned for the purchase of fifth-generation F-35 fighter Lightning-2 from Lockheed Martin.

According to Reuters, citing a statement by Secretary of Defense Stephen Smith, the Australian Air Force will soon order a second batch of F-35 Lightning 2, in addition to the acquisition of 2011 aircraft approved in 14.

In addition, according to him, in the near future the conversion of the 12 from the F / A-24 Super Hornet 18 fighters acquired earlier to the EW version of the EA-18G will be completed.

According to the schedule, the first two of the Australian F-14 35 must be manufactured and tested in the US in the 2014-2015.

In just a few batches, 75 aircraft will be ordered (three squadrons), the first of which will be introduced into the Australian Air Force in 2020 year.

The mixed fleet of F / A-18 / EA-18G and F-35 will be operated for at least the 2030 year.

After this date, the X-NUMX F-25 will be purchased to replace the Super Hornet aircraft that have developed a service life. As a result, the total number of F-35 fighters purchased will be 35 units.

            Pimply, sure, not a problem. But here the ball is ruled by specialists from a different school. Unit cost / efficiency / operation is not about this aircraft. another question Hornet / Navy / Air Force, there is still something to admit. But Pingiven .... Fire it. At the moment, the only thing he really proved is the miscalculations in costs. Into the flesh to the brake hook. If we say that negative experience is the path "through the thorns to the stars", then we are not like a bae not at the dawn of the era of aviation ... We could have made a glider. And dviglo to debug, BEFORE the series. I understand if the only question for "windows" was ... (joke, I'm talking about the brains of the plane) In fact, so far he is aiming to acquire the laurels of the F-117Nighthawk ... (the same Night will become, to justify stealth wassat )

      Lockheed Martin and its partners hold a huge PR company to promote the F-35 and Americans are able to promote their goods in all available ways.

        The banter of the unsubscribes, of course, is ridiculous, and the F-35, obviously, is not worth the money for which it is sold. Kosyakov has it, too, in order, but: this aircraft, undoubtedly, is up-to-date, with a bunch of innovations, maybe not as revolutionary as it is positioned, but still. Another thing is worrying, zadripilnaya Australia orders 100 pieces of these aircraft, and we are our newest? Now compare the points of tension between ours and the Australians ... what Sadly.

      Indonesia is not the Australian Armed Forces' biggest headache. Although China is far away, it causes more concern. in the event of a conflict with the United States, he, China, may well cut the sea routes from Singapore to Australia, and Singapore is currently the main supplier of bezin and diesel fuel to Australia. And to the United States, Australia is fastened firmly by relevant treaties in the military sphere. So if China and the United States do not understand, Australia will have to fight on the side of the United States. And for such a war, crocodiles with kangaroos will not be enough, even taking into account the high fighting qualities of kangaroos. But Indonesia is unlikely to want to shove a horn on such allies. Because the horns can break off. Moreover, New Zealand will immediately set its natives with war paint and kiwi birds against Indonesia. This bird is terribly dangerous. Small, but strongly gonoshasty. Will bite nafig.
      And the last thing about. Rumors about "impotence" F35 are greatly exaggerated. Yes, there are problems there, especially with the vertical take-off and landing option, But this option is basically demanded by the US Navy, so let them suffer with it. and most other buyers of F35, including Australia, are quite satisfied with the normal version of this aircraft. Of course, the terms of its commissioning have already been disrupted, but this has not yet led to the collapse of the Air Force of any of the countries. They are bypassed by other types, For example, the modernized F18, F16 and F15. And there the F35 will mature to a standard. So far, time suffers and a couple of three years does not solve anything.

    The whole f-35 epic resembles the story of the F-105 starfighter. There’s a lot of screaming, advertising, saying the most powerful aircraft in the world, but in fact the Americans bought it themselves in a limited batch, and the rest vparival their allies. It was not a plane but a flying coffin . Judging by what they write about the f-35, he may have the same fate.

They criticized the F-35 to the nines, saying that the SU-35 could easily lose although the older generation announced a refusal to purchase and now consent. Interesting girls are dancing, the amers should specifically put pressure on them. And this ax will never fly as it was intended during its development.

          Can I try to answer, instead of Eugene, especially since he left Israel and personally does not destroy Assad. However, you must understand that the world is a complex thing. For Russia, Assad is a friend and comrade (albeit a disgusting one) For Israel, he is a clear evil. For many years he supported Hezbollah and supplied it with rockets - a weapon of terror. The north of Israel was constantly bombarded and terrorized. And thanks to Assad for that. Now about the adequacy. Israel is vitally interested in the fall of Assad for a number of reasons. The first and obvious one: it is better to meet an evil hare in the forest than a good wolf. Deranged gangs are not a problem for the army. Borders locked. Minor skirmishes are possible, but this cannot be compared to the dormant threat posed by the regular Syrian army armed with missiles and weapons of mass destruction capable of reaching Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Ao second. Zombie Salafis are a creature of the Saudis, and are ruled by the hand of the monarchy. The next target has already been declared - Hezbollah (not Israel) And you know why? Because the Saudis are forced to act in the interests of Israel (Not out of great love, of course). Because only Israel can solve the problem of Iran, which the Arabian monarchies hate and fear much more than Israel. In this situation, Israel is the only hope for the Arabians. Don't worry about Syria. It looks like we agreed with Russia. Russia was tough and bargained for whatever it wanted. Turn on the news. Such a powerful blow to Syria, and the silence. Neither Lavrov's formidable statements (later he will make mild condemnation) nor hysteria, which was the last time. In short, Syria is no longer Russia's vital interest. It was sold, and apparently the offered price was satisfied this time. It is right. For Russia has only one priority - national interests. For a long time Israel did not intervene in the situation in Syria, proceeding from the position - "A plague on both your houses." And since he fit in on the side of the Arabs in this conflict, it means the Arabs (Arabians) offered an acceptable price. Precisely - WORLD. Moving towards a real WORLD, with trade relations, technology export and political dialogue. peace with the Arabs is the most coveted reward and prize for Israel which is not higher. (Do not forget in this Persian-Arab confrontation, Syria opposes the entire consolidated Arab world in the person of the League of Arab States. This is a sober and correct step of Israel. It is worth intervening. And how funny. The League even condemned the Israeli aggression (although the condemnation sounds feigned tenderly.) But you are a big boy. The Arab League nevertheless put forward for the first time real demands for peace, and declared its readiness to go for rapprochement. Peace with the entire Arab world and the fall of the vile sworn enemy - the ruling house of Assads. Moreover, it is possible to destroy Hezbollah by hand jihadists So what's not clear?

              Everything is simple and commonplace. if you take a sober look, you will find that Russia is not the enemy of America. And America has no interest in blaming Russia. Russia is developing smoothly, but not explosively. Fulfills all obligations undertaken. Exports oil and does not threaten American hegimony. In reality, the Russia-USA confrontation is a game. What is not a game and what threatens US hegemony is China. And the answer to where the Salafis will be sent is simple and banal. They will direct to tear to pieces the closest ally and fortress of China, the window of China to the Middle East - Pakistan. But dealing with packs is difficult. They will need to be torn so as to gently grab the nuclear weapon falling out of the hands. This is a difficult task. I don’t know how the intelligence community will decide it. But apparently they have considerations. This can also be gently understood from the turn that the United States made from Pakistan to India. (Or rather they just mix it up, because now Afghanistan is still relevant and the packs are needed, but they are more naughty, more and more subject to the influence of China, and very soon this friendship between the USA and Pakistan will come to a final end. And think about the fact that it’s not terrorists, and sucked from the Caucasus to other regions.

                        I do not think that the Partnership between Russia and China is a screen. But the United States will drive a wedge. Not out of malice to Russia, but to deprive China of cheap resources. But Russia is not the first goal. Amer very concentrated on the goal of the people. Now the forces are limited and they will focus on China. Therefore, for the time being, They will not hit the customs union. (If China does not request there. And if it is requested now, then it cannot be allowed in yet, because it is too large economically and will gobble up the alliance within the alliance. Forks. But in the future, if the Customs Union with Russia at the head grows stronger and begins to pose a threat, then and aim. Although there is a threat to Russia.

How can we help ordinary people? Maybe this was a small point in trade with Syria. (I don't know, but I want to think so) That Russia has received guarantees of a presence in Syria without Assad and participation in new infrastructure and business projects that will serve to restore the country and prosperity. and as soon as Assad falls and the alien Salafis disappear, they will be urgently moved to a new goal. time is gone, full time notes. Assad will not be, and everything will be over the next day. This will be the first peaceful morning. And what Russia bargained for is not obvious to me. We will see it. One thing is clear, this time the bargaining was serious, and Russia refused to sacrifice its interests just like that, declaring an ironclad position.

She was neither the first target nor the last. And she did not participate in the geopolitical situation (although there is some interest in robbing the country and pumping Libyan oil, but this is not the goal at all) Gaddafi fell under the distribution, because he was the personal and blood enemy of the Emir of Qatar, Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani. Gaddafi, in his usual laid-back and witty manner, had the imprudence to joke and humiliate the Emir in public at the LAS meetings. The Emir gritted his teeth and spent a long time preparing his revenge. Besides, if you remember, we started from Tunisia, not from Libya. he is also on the outskirts. But it was necessary to roll back and test the revolutionary technology. Then Libya. This is personal revenge, plus a convenient foothold for crushing Mubarak in Egypt and pushing the Muslim brothers under the control, led by Mursi, to power. But Gaddafi could have survived, if at one time he had not so "lowered" (by the way, very witty) the powerful emir of a tiny but influential country.

                  When the jihadists burst into Damascus, they will make fun of it. But they won't be given much time to relax. It simply does not exist, this time. We urgently need to end with Hezbollah. Syria is not Libya. There, of course, they will bustle after all the Majahideen leave, but they calm down pretty quickly. The culture of the country is higher, and although there are many contradictions, they are not as brutal as between the tribes in Libya. There is no way to establish a severe Shori'a in Syria. Look at Egypt, it doesn't work. For example, today the secular population in Egypt lynched the unbelted son of a high-ranking Islamist in Egypt. And I said, I don't know, but I really want to believe that Russia has designated its place in Syria after Assad. And the question "why break?" sometimes when the forest is cut down - the chips fly. And this forest disturbed many people. He could not help but be cut down. The fact that the woodcutters would come to Syria was clear even when Tunisia was burning. But Assad was not prepared. Why? I dont know. did not have time, did not have enough resources, or missed.

I just analyze what is happening from the outside, if possible without unnecessary emotions. Assad's war will be lost when we get other confirmation that Israel and the Arabs have made an alliance against Syria. If so ("If", note this is still an assumption) Then Syria is a kerdyk, because it can do nothing to oppose Israel's military might. (especially in the Air Force component. Neither the Scuds nor the Iskanders (if any) will help. But even if Israel joins the sabotage war and does not begin to deliver further air strikes, the war is still lost. Because special forces groups will go there (rather all of the selected Bedouins, Druze and Circassians (all of them serve in the IDF)) with modern ATGM systems, and even with the support or coordination of actions with groups of Qatar special forces. Remember how Tripoli fell. (Not the regime, but the capital of Libya. The capital fell before The opposition and the jihadists were already in complete despair, they almost started shooting each other in hopelessness in Benghazi, and suddenly, literally overnight, a message comes: “The opposition has taken Tripoli.” It was the work of the Qataris. not finally decided. Gaddafi and the loyalists were still strong, and the Qataris did not want to fight for the zombies. It's one thing to help with a separate assault on the capital, it's another to lose elite soldiers in the training and education of which millions of and each, in constant battles for many days. Qatar took a different path. I asked Sarko to return part of the money invested in it, so to speak, as a military-political service. And Sarkozy did not refuse the emir. France took the lead in the operation. With Syria, the stakes are higher. If Qatar gets Israel's help, then Assad is doomed. Such losses will begin in armored vehicles (there will still be expendable jihodists on the front line) that the army will not be able to continue the offensive. We must face the truth. If the jihadists are reinforced by elite special forces armed with modern anti-tank systems that receive satellite (and maybe from UAVs) intelligence and operational information from AMAN (Israel's military intelligence) and the Mossad, then Assad will not be able to withstand such pressure. In addition, “on the other side” have already realized that the monkeys cannot cope. The most capable monkeys were selected and trained (amerovskie instructors) for many months at special bases in Jordan. (in open sources you can find a figure of 2000 thousand. There is no evidence of this figure) This group of trained jihadists is waiting for the go-ahead in Jordan. There is no information yet that they began to be thrown into Syria. Apparently they are preparing for a consolidated strike. You can drink a glass of beer and emotionally clench your fists for Assad. But if we discard emotions, sympathies and soberly assess the balance of power, then everything becomes very sad for Bashar Hafezovich Assad. You need to think about where to evacuate your family.

      The lack of logic in the actions of the Australians is surprising. They criticized the F-35 to the nines, saying that the SU-35 can easily lose even though the older generation, announced the rejection of the purchase and now the consent.

      There is no lack of logic. Australia is one of the "junior allies" of the United States, that is, it has the right at least to its own opinion. Some Australian analysts and the military believe that if you buy a 5-generation aircraft, then the best is the F-22. .But Amer's F-22s don't sell.
      In this regard, there was informational noise. Some comrades in Australia wanted to promote the United States on the F-22.

    And a couple of cents about the plane. It should be remembered that Lockheed won a contract for this aircraft from Boeing in the fiercest competition. And the technical solutions incorporated in the design of the F35 are really promising. At the same time, the tie to the financing of the project of many countries played a cruel joke with the plane, because pressure from politicians forced the developers to start flight tests of a "raw" aircraft that was not yet ready for such tests. Those. there is premature birth. And premature birth often comes at a price with the health of the baby. But on the other hand, these same politicians will not let the baby die quietly and will try to keep up with the condition no matter what the cost. And they will hold out. By the way, similar tricks occurred with many samples of weapons and military equipment of the USSR. Remember at least MIG23. After all, it got to the point that serial MIGs were delivered to the military unit disassembled, and the mechanics of the military unit, together with the brigades of factory workers, had to assemble and debug these aircraft in conditions completely unsuitable for this. And all because these planes "made very fast" and did so that they could not fly after factory assembly in principle. Therefore, the exploiter had no choice but to take on the refinement of the aircraft at home. And they brought nothing. Where to go. And then the factories were put in order. This "litak" will also be delivered. The States have enough potential for this. And the grandmother? Why should we count their grandmothers? They should learn and count and use their own.

    It looks like this:

    F-35 aircraft is excellent. Yes, it is still problematic, and VTOL finally killed him with LTX - now they are not circus, which is not necessary. BUT the very fact of an attempt to create, and successful whoever clucks whatever, a SINGLE multi-purpose platform with wide capabilities is expensive. The Americans created a really modern aircraft, with the best avionics in the world, excellent radar (AFAR in Russia has not even been mastered on serial numbers yet), stealth. They demanded to combine the incompatible - and so they made the F-35. It’s naive stupidity to beat yourself in the chest and assure that supposedly Sukhoi Design Bureau would do better because it is impossible to do something cooler than Lightning with such conflicting JSF requirements. The United States today is a full-fledged leader in the aerospace industry, as if the haters would not yell. It is a fact.

    Yes, F-35 has childhood diseases, there are also congenital disadvantages in LTH (it’s not trained in circus cobras, but it doesn’t need anywhere except an air show, and those who quote it should pay attention to the Su-35 and F-22) . Nevertheless, this is quite the fifth generation, which no country in the world has not yet mastered. Combine in one platform what was combined in the F-35 was not able to any country in the world. Well, except for Sweden, which initially washed down some kind of JSF program - JAS-Gripen.

And when the T-50 goes into production, the United States will stop building its F-35s, as happened with the F-117, which is too expensive for a target. And they will come to grips with the aircraft of the sixth generation.

              But in war, not beauty wins, but fighting efficiency.

              And where are the examples of any victories (not even military ones) that are "combat-ready"?

        Definitely, but add: the corpses of enemies! But whose territory is the third question, therefore I recommend: in order not to become the first, do not become the second. The choice is yours.

                Did you have a "why" deficit as a child and now decided to catch up? Or do you now have a lack of communication among the girls?
                Relax and have fun, the questions above are rhetorical.
                Types like you "spinning spinning ball blue" are of no interest to me.

    Whatever it was, but F35 5th generation aircraft with appropriate avionics - that's why they take it. If something goes wrong, the service company will answer, i.e. USA. Plus, what else can Australia buy? Our drying with considerable investments in Ф35 - this is nonsense. So I think no one put "cancer" on anyone. F22 is not given to them, so they buy what they have. And in the event of conflicts, the United States will be with them and the integration of joint technology is always beneficial.
    Yes, and what do we think of Australia? !!! We need to think about ourselves, about our T50 and its future, maybe about future developments of such a smaller aircraft.
