Azerbaijan buys Typhoon fighters from Britain


According to the publication, last year, the UK took 4-e place in the world for the sale of fighter "Eurofighter Typhoon" to the Persian Gulf. These fighters are considered among the most modern and powerful in the world. According to the rating of arms exporters, last year, the UK was ahead of Germany even by several positions and exported weapons worth 3.9 billion dollars. It is not only about sold military products on the basis of contracts, but about the sale of weapons to all interested consumers.

Only one Saudi Arabia exported 72 fighter worth 2 billion dollars. However, the contract for the sale of fighters in the United Arab Emirates was unexpectedly foiled. And now the British manufacturer Typhoon - the company ”BAE Systems is negotiating with Azerbaijan, Kuwait and Qatar to sell its fighters to these countries.

Recall that the Typhoon fighter, a fourth-generation multipurpose fighter, was developed and produced by Eurofighter GmbH, created in 1986 by the consortium Alenia Aeronautica, BAE Systems and EADS.

Currently being mass production of the fighter. The aircraft was commissioned by the Air Forces of Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria and the United Kingdom.

Recall that the Air Force of Azerbaijan is currently provided with Russian fighters - “MIG” and “Su”. If the deal goes through and Azerbaijan purchases these fighters, our country will be the first in the post-Soviet space, possessing the most powerful and advanced military aircraft. And it will further strengthen its military superiority over Armenia.

        It goes without saying. We do not need Turkey's strengthening, therefore Armenia is our long-term ally. As the saying goes "only business, nothing personal".
        I do not understand the other in the article. Here is this phrase which means:

        "last year Great Britain took 4th place in the world for the sale of Eurofighter Typhoon fighters to Gulf countries"

        That is, there are WHOLE THREE countries that sell more Gulf Typhoons to the Gulf countries than Great Britain? Once last in 4th place? What kind of countries are these?
        Or was it something else?

        And why the title of the article contradicts its content? The headline says that Azerbaijan buys "typhoons". From the article, it turns out that he does NOT buy - some negotiations are just going on.
        Why in the illustration of F-16 instead of Typhoons? Does the author see the difference?
        It is strange to see such unprofessional material on this site.

          Hello, Phase. Probably, it was meant that Eurofighter is the joint brainchild of Europeans (England, Germany, Italy, Spain) and that others are also supplying.
          In general, it’s very expensive. Then Rafal (he already has AFAR) should be considered. In general, it is surprising how successful the MiG-21 wing was - all Europeans create similar ones (Grip, Raf, Tai). And this is the front wing for all Europeans. At Typhoon, an engine with OVT is being made. The front wings + ATS is what will he have maneuverability ?! hi

            Hello! And the explanation is as simple as the corner of a house.
            1. Two months ago, the Emirates refused to supply Typhoon fighters without giving any reasons:
            http://warfiles.ru/show-44673-emiraty-otkazalis-ot-istrebiteley-typhoon.html

            2. Week Nazal Germany also refused the last batch of Typhoon fighters:
            http://warfiles.ru/show-48917-germaniya-otkazalas-ot-37-istrebiteley-typhoon.htm
            l

            (the reason is called a reduction, but they always say so so as not to harm the brand).

            So the guys want to sell at least to someone - Zimbabwe, Azerbaijan, and even Euromaidan. But Azerbaijan will not buy them. We remember how he bought Chinese "Thunder". If they were not pulled, then you can forget about typhoons. wink

              They didn’t pull it up as loudly said. The country has 50 billion in foreign exchange reserves. Only 5 billion dollars in cash has been set aside to strengthen the Air Force. They turned to Russia, were denied the Su-30s. They haven’t taken so far because they don’t correspond to those the necessary standards of modern combat aviation.

              If you don’t want to sell, you don’t have to. Sell for loans to others.% Billion will go to others. Money doesn’t smell. It could be that this money would go to your treasury. You don’t want to.

                And what is 50 billion? Funny pennies. We won Ukraine 15 and are ready to give 35 more. For small expenses. With such income, you cannot afford modern aviation. Even the "Thunder" is Chinese.

                No, we do not need to strengthen Turkey. We have much more to sell gas to Europe than to sell a small batch of fighters to Azerbaijan. You won’t buy big - you are not India. wink

            , You are in the subject that Russia cannot sell planes to either Kazakhstan or Azerbaijan. We laid eyes on the MiG-35, but it is not there yet.

            Good evening, Russia appears to have refused to modernize the Kazakhstan SU-27, so Belarus was modernized.
            But the possibility of turning the Su-27 into a multi-functional fighter (after the Russians refused to perform this kind of work) became interested in Kazakhstan. In 2007, a contract was signed between Astana and Minsk to finalize 10 Su-27 and Su-27UB fighters to the Su-27M2 and Su-27UBM2 versions.

            The first modernized Su were transferred to Kazakhstan in December 2009 goals, the last at the moment - in December 2013. Advanced vehicles were included in the squadron of “Barca Zhetisu” 604th air base in Taldy-Kurgan.

            Currently, the Kazakh Air Force has 34 Su-27S and Su-27UB fighters. Information on whether they will all be upgraded to version M2 is not yet available.

            According to Jane's International Defense Review, Kazakh fighters upgraded to the Su-27UBM2 version received an upgraded H001 airborne radar station, as well as a container targeting system for high-precision weapons Lightning-3 manufactured by the Israeli company Rafael.

            This made it possible to significantly expand the range of airborne weapons. Now it includes air-to-air missiles R-27ER, R-27ET, R-73 and RVV-AE. In addition, the aircraft can launch air-to-ground missiles Kh-25ML, Kh-29T, Kh-29L, Kh-31A and Kh-31R.

            The Su-27UBM2 can also carry laser-guided aerial bombs KAB-500L and KAB-1500L weighing 500 and 1 kg, respectively, as well as KAB-500Kr and KAB-500Kr with a television guidance system. Also, this fighter can use unguided bombs weighing up to 1500 kilograms and unguided missiles S-500, S-8 and S-13.

            If we talk about other major innovations, the accuracy of the navigation system was improved. The Su-27 also got the opportunity to transmit information about ground and air targets to other aircraft of the group, as well as to ground stations and control centers. The Su-27UBM2 engines received a new control and diagnostic system that is capable of transmitting and writing to flash cards information about the status of power plants.

            And I'm not a nationalist, I just treat all of you very carefully and incredulously now, to the Kazakhs, after my uncle was forced to leave Almaat in 91 after 65 years of life and work in the republic, to Azerbaijan after my friend’s parents left Baku, and another friend after the death of his mother was not allowed to sell the house, and when he arrived in Krasnodar he went down for three months from nervous exhaustion. And now answer yourself could this be in Russia? And where does so much incredulous and cautious towards the Turkic-speaking come from? - FROM THE CAMEL. And there is no need here to build a virgin from anything that does not understand. So sorry-YOU-sulfur is with you. And I have life experience confirmed by facts.

      As for the American bombs, of which 80% did not explode, the args themselves are to blame. 30 years of storage without proper care + too low discharge height, the fuses did not have time to stand on a combat platoon. For the top-mast bombing, other b / ps are needed, but the args had only Mk.80

We are supporters of opening all communications in the South Caucasus, establishing economic, political, social and cultural ties, participation of Armenians in transnational projects of Azerbaijan in the future. However, all this on condition that the Armenians must liberate the occupied lands of Azerbaijan, recognize the genocide committed by them against the Azerbaijanis and apologize to the Azerbaijani people.

          In my opinion, the Armenians do not have combat aircraft, and attack helicopters are needed on the ground in Karabakh. True fighters may be needed in the future. At the expense of Typhoons and Azerbaijan, I thought when I read the material that the Germans refused to purchase 48 Typhoon fighters ordered. What is interesting is how Europe agreed to sell it because recently it was forbidden even to put its motors intended for sale in Azerbaijan on sau. By the way, guys from Azerbaijan, what do you think the name of your country means if you translate from Kazakh as Azerbaijani-by-jan, then now they are rich-soul (the first syllable does not skip and the Azerbaijani writes, as I understand the machine takes as an insult)

    If ... Azerbaijan buys these fighters, our country will be the first in the post-Soviet space, possessing the most powerful and advanced military aircraft. And even more ...


    Pompous and pretentious nonsense of kishlach mass media !!! I watched footage of Azerbaijani military pilots on YouTube. Some of them are pot-bellied and lazy. Such figures are more appropriate behind the persimmon counter, rather than in the cockpits of aircraft. I suspect that the Azerbaijani "kozhedubs" will not achieve domination in the sky either on the "Typhoons", or on "flashes", or on any other pepelats.

      Amet Khan Sultan (Lax. Ahmad-Khan Sultan, Crimean Tatar. Amet-han Sultan; October 25, 1920 - February 1, 1971) - military pilot, lieutenant colonel (1957), honored test pilot of the USSR (1961), twice Hero of the Soviet Union (1943, 1945). One of the best Soviet aces of the Great Patriotic War


      In total, during the war, Amet-Khan Sultan flew 603 sorties (70 of them to attack the enemy’s manpower and equipment), conducted 150 air battles, in which shot down personally 30 and as part of a group of 19 enemy aircraft.

      And here is another example.

      Jalil Zandy (Persian جلیل زندی; born May 2, 1951 in Gharsar; died April 1, 2001 in Tehran) - Iranian ace pilot, considered the most successful fighter pilot of the Iran-Iraq war.

      Great fame came to him as the pilot of the F-14 Tomcat. During the Iran-Iraq war, he won 11 air victories - 8 confirmed and 3 probable. He shot down four MiG-23s, two Su-22s, two MiG-21s and three Mirage F1s. This makes him the most successful F-14 Tomcat pilot in the world.

        Hello, hush! I’ll add with your permission. Begeldinov is one of the first who shot down Messer on the IL-2 in an air battle (he shot down 7 in total in air battles). Powerful gun. weapons and armor IL-2 had its advantages, which Begeldinov could use. The command trusted him so much that they let it go on solo sorties. He was shot down, but successfully escaped from enemy territory.
        You can also add the modern pilot Tokhtar Aubakirov (Hero of the USSR). The first MiG-29 landed on an aircraft carrier. hi

For a long time he was looking for Azeri pilots, they found a whole squadron in the Pacific Fleet, consisting of only fellow countrymen. They all went there, but they didn’t go through the medical board and other obstacles. Then he had to choose Manarov. He was born in Baku, his family lived there. from Azerbaijan.

So if you don’t sell, and Azerbaijan first of all wanted to buy Russian airplanes, then it’s nefig to arrange, so to speak, at least at least someone agreed , sell something, and when Russia supports it, the lobby lends itself to support, if it’s true then it’s very happy.

        The Chinese J-10 is not at all manufactured using Israeli technology and has nothing to do with Lavi. This is an entirely Russian product designed by the Mikoyan Design Bureau (index "Product 4.12" or LMFI - light multifunctional fighter). Our Ministry of Defense rejected this project and pushed it to the Chinese comrades.
        China really started designing with Lavi. But he could not cope and as a result bought a ready-made project from Mikoyanovtsy.

                At the moment, everything suits Armenia, it does not need to fight. Azerbaijan longs for revenge, yes. But if he knows that the consequences for him will be negative, he won’t start a war.
                I am not against Azerbaijan, understand. I understand the feelings of Azerbaijanis, because they have cut off part of the territory. But it is also true that Armenians live on this territory and if you give it to Azerbaijan, then massacre and ethnic cleansing are inevitable. Therefore, a solution must be sought jointly and this solution cannot lie in the plane of capture of Karabakh by Azerbaijan. And one more thing: this solution will not be found soon. The memory of that war is too lively now, too many grievances, emotions, desire to take revenge. Everyone should be cool, that’s what I think.

            . T-72 needs to be shot and tested specifically for each crew, then shooting and driving will be better, and modernization implies improved shooting and protection.


            Conceptually, the T-72 cannot be changed. This is an extremely explosive tank. Moreover, the detonation of ammunition, for example, in the "Desert Storm" in the T-72 occurred much more often than in the old T-55.

              Is it on TV they said the best? In the BBO sent the first ones, for example.

              Measures are being taken, even on older machines. Syrians, for example, do not carry full BC.

    The article is an informational duck of the West. Apparently "temporary success in Ukraine" turned some heads in the West and "off we go." There are literate people everywhere - they are calculating options (the same spare parts in the event of an economic and military blockade).

    The news, of course, is interesting, but most likely another "duck" from the same opera that Azerbaijan buys destroyers and submarines from South Korea for the Caspian Sea. Why?
    Firstly, Azerbaijan. like any other post-Soviet country, it is focused primarily on Soviet-style armaments, for which there is infrastructure and trained flight and technical personnel, and including much more repairable than western aircraft.
    Moreover, the news has already slipped several times before that Azerbaijan will purchase JF-17 Thunder fighter jets from Pakistan and China:
    As transfers AZE.az, in the company “Pakistan Aeronautical Complex - PAC”, participating in the air show “Dubai Airshow - 2011”, APA informed that negotiations were held with Azerbaijan, however they are not at the stage of purchase and sale.
    Currently, the company is fulfilling the order of the Pakistan Air Force, while exports to Azerbaijan can be realized within a few years. The parties have already decided on the preliminary volume of supplies.
    Demonstrations of JF-17 Thunder aircraft took place as part of the air show. The flights were also observed by members of the Azerbaijani delegation.
    In comparison with the MiG-29 aircraft, the JF-17 Thunder has a number of similar and even superior indicators. Aircraft have increased maneuvering. By including these aircraft in their inventory, the Azerbaijani Air Force will increase its combat effectiveness.
    Company officials said relations between Pakistan and Azerbaijan are at a high level. Official Pakistan supports the position of Baku and the territorial integrity of the country. If these relations are taken into account, then there will be no problems with the purchase of aircraft.
    According to company officials, next year, within the framework of cooperation between Pakistan and China, the development of the Block-2 version will begin. This version of the JF-17 Thunder will be equipped with new electronic and weapons systems.
    Note that the length of the aircraft is 14,97 meters, the maximum weight of the aircraft is 12474 kg. The maximum speed of the aircraft is 1909 km / h, the combat radius is 1352 km.
    The aircraft is equipped with a Tipe 23-2 double-barreled gun, caliber 23 mm, 4 guided air-to-air missiles, 1 guided air-to-ground missiles, 1 non-guided missiles, 4 MK-type bombs; 82, 1-type MK.84 or GBU-10 / GBU-12, Durandel, Mk.20 Rockeye.

    However, it is already the third year, and not one "Tander" in the Air Force of Azerbaijan has not appeared.

    Secondly, Azerbaijan now has 26 MiG-29 (2-UB) and 10 MiG-25 (6-P, 4-RB), which are enough for the eyes against one Armenian MiG-25, which has been talked about for a long time already, but for 15 Armenian Su-25 enough for their eyes.

    The first representative of Azerbaijan’s jet aircraft was Vagif Kurbanov. It was in 92, when Shaposhnikov vowed in front of the cameras to catch him and return the Su-25 plane. The truth here is in Azerbaijani. The program tells how he studied in Borisoglebsky air force, how the plane hijacked, about his heroic path. I did 4-5 sorties a day.

    If the deal is concluded and Azerbaijan purchases these fighters, our country will be the first in the post-Soviet space to possess the most powerful and advanced military aircraft.

    Something I did not understand. I understand the author, he really wants Azerbaijan to get modern fighters, but I don’t understand why he got that the Typhoons are the best in the post-Soviet space and that he has no equal?

In the British newspaper, in the original article, the word Azerbaijan was written only in one place at the very end, as a country that is interested in buying this plane and that’s all. And he wrote the article here and drew plans, and even managed specify specifically against whom they are intended))) In a word, this is just newspaper-level talk.

            Yes, it’s not a matter of where there is no where to train, there are schools, and in Turkey, children study in Russia and other places, but where healthy and educated students go to civilian universities, or according to the Bolashak program abroad, everyone wants to sit in bread positions and in the school, mostly children of former military personnel, himself one of them.

      give it in a variant of an attack aircraft. with aiming equipment and a modified nose shape of an airplane))))) I agree then)) by the way, remember. as in 96 our fighters intercepted your cargo IL-76 in Yugoslavia with MiG-21 on board. Then the noise rose , they almost left these MiGs with us (6 pieces) but then changed their minds and released them. bully

Finally, our leadership understands that it’s just a neighbor and one that can act on the side of the enemy of Russia depending on of how he will benefit. And let him buy the well-worn Eurofighter.
