Obama Decides to Stop Purchasing Tomahawks and Hellfires

119
These are the Tomahawk CD and the Hellfire ATGM procured for the US Navy.

At 2015, Obama proposes that the Tomahawk, which is called the most advanced cruise missile in the world, be sent for the purchase of the Kyrgyz Republic only 128 million dollars, and in 2016, they will be completely stopped. This means that if last year the Pentagon purchased 196 missiles of this type, then in the 2015 year there will be only 100, in 2016 - none. The Navy will also be forced to cancel the purchase of well-proven Hellfire light multipurpose missiles in 2015.

Obama Decides to Stop Purchasing Tomahawks and Hellfires


The proposed abolition of these two missile programs came as a shock to lawmakers and military experts, who warned that without these missiles, America’s ability to restrain its opponents would be greatly undermined.

During the military campaign against Libya in 2011, around the Tomahawks 220 was used. On average, almost 100 missiles of this type are launched per year, which means that the termination of purchases will lead to the fact that the stock of missiles will be completely exhausted by about the 2018 year. This is of particular concern to military experts, since the Pentagon currently does not have a missile capable of replacing the Tomahawk.

According to some experts, the promising LRASM CR currently under development will be ready for combat use only in 10 years.

The Pentagon did not respond to a request to comment on these decisions of the president.

      Well, to be fair, they have already purchased quite a lot of Tomahawks.

      In 2012, the U.S. Navy ordered from Raytheon 361 Tomahawk Block IV cruise missile with a total value of $ 338 million. The agreement provides for the transfer of 238 vertical launch missiles for surface ships and 123 missiles for submarines. Delivery must end in August 2014 of the year.

      Media
      23 nuclear submarines of the Los Angeles type, 12 KR;
      4 Ohio-class submarines, up to 154 missile launchers (7 missiles in drum-type launchers for each of 22 mines from Trident SLBMs, actually 98-140 missiles, depending on the composition of the special operations forces);
      3 submarines of the Sivulf type, up to 50 charges for torpedo tubes, including cruise missiles;
      9 submarines of the Virginia type, up to 12 KR;
      The British submarine type "Suiftshur" displacement 4900 tons, 5 torpedo tubes, 20 torpedoes and missiles;
      The British submarine type Trafalgar displacement 5200 tons, 5 torpedo tubes, 25 torpedoes and missiles;
      British strike submarine of the Astyut type (2007, the first of four of this class), displacement of 7200/7800 tons, service life ~ 30 years, 6 torpedo tubes, 48 ​​torpedoes and missiles;
      61 destroyers of the Arly Burke type in service, the capacity of two VPU Mk41 of the Aegis system is 90/96 cells (depending on the ship series). In the universal version of armament, the ship carries 8 "Tomahawks", in the shock - 56;
      22 missile cruisers of the “Ticonderoga” type, VPU Mk41 capacity of the Aegis system - 122 cells, typical load - 26 KR “Tomahawk”;
      Since 2016, the launch of 2 new DDG-1000 destroyers with 80 launchers each.

      Multiply and see the total. You can also add to the hosted ships some more stored at bases around the world.

        That is, if you look at the Navy now ¿300? rockets. fool

        In the arsenal of the U.S. Navy there are about 4000 Tomahawk which are enough as a min. until 2030, and if you keep in mind that in 2020 there will be a new cruise missile using the Stealth technology, then everything is nishtyak good no reason to panic. drinks

          Invented, wickedness! And in order to free the cellars for storing the new CDs, they will try to dispose of the old Axes "for the benefit of democracy", unloading them through the Mk41 launcher.
          Prospective CR LRASM will come to replace them.
          "The implementation of the joint program DARPA and the US Navy began in 2009 with the aim of creating a new generation of missiles, which would have high autonomy, survivability, lethality, would be equipped with intelligent search and detection systems, data processing and minimally dependent on external information collection systems , reconnaissance and guidance, data transmission channels and GPS satellite navigation system.
          LRASM is developed in the interests of the US Air Force and Navy. It is anticipated that LRASM will be able to hit targets at any time of the day and in difficult weather conditions.
          At the end of the 2010 of the year, two contracts with a total value of 218 million dollars were concluded with Lockheed Martin for the development and demonstration of two LRASM projects.
          LRASM-A is being developed by the Strike Control division in Orlando (Florida) as an inconspicuous subsonic cruise missile equipped with additional sensors, which has high survivability on the basis of the airborne missile defense project AGM-158B JASSM-ER with additional sensors and systems. It is assumed that the LRASM-A will be equipped with a high-explosive fragmentation warhead.
          LRASM-B Designed by Tactical Missiles in Grand Prairie, Texas, as a subtle supersonic maneuverable missile with a ramjet engine.
          BAe Systems is developing a multisensor guidance system for two LRASM variants. The missile seeker will include radar and electro-optical / IR channels for target detection and identification on the final leg of the flight path. "Http://ikorotchenko.livejournal.com/595748.html

      Yes, after our "Avtobaza" demonstrated its capabilities, their axes turned into useless toys. Therefore, the wash disappeared in their purchase. This is how these Yusovsky goats need it.

      Well, the Axes are still okay, let's say they do not plan a large consumption. But Hellfire is exactly what they urinate from drones of any al-Qaeda, Taliban, and other Islamists. Israel is also actively wetting all kinds of hezbalons, Hamas, and Islamic jihadists with them. They hit very accurately, selectively, and reliably, and the impact force is such that the SUV turns into a bunch of twisted scrap metal, even it does not seem to determine what it was, well, not surprisingly, they were originally developed as anti-tank. It’s a very useful thing, and it’s impossible to stop production, well, unless you have already created a considerable supply.
      But after B. Hussein Obama there will be another president, and something tells me that it will be a Republican. And the president’s military budget is just offered, but approved by Congress. Usually even the most liberal shit-pigeon dove becomes a hawk if the question is about jobs in his constituency. Especially high-quality jobs like the military industry. A large plant, as a rule, feeds several districts, besides allies all over America. There were many precedents when Congress refused to approve reductions, even approved by the military.

        Yes, but this UAV must still fly up to the distance of the Hellfire shot, and the performance characteristics are not very good for a normal enemy.
        http://www.vonovke.ru/s/agm-114_hellfire
        They simply will not be allowed to fly to the distance of the shot.
        In Crimea, two were shot down and two were imprisoned. And these toys sit down to the disgrace just. The communication channel with the operator is jammed and the device switches to the automatic return mode to the base according to GPS signals. This is where the most interesting thing begins: the "carpool" gives him the recalculated new coordinates of the false GPS and thus this kukaracha sits there, when the "carpool" operator lands him. In the same way, axes fired at Syria by Americans were dropped into the sea and immediately after that they quickly agreed to Russia's proposals on chemical weapons in Syria. That is why Bardak Abramka looks gray lately. Now they shy away, like the devil from incense, from direct clashes with Russia in any form. And Obama's last statement in The Hague that neither Ukraine nor Georgia will join NATO is a clear confirmation of this.

    Obama is called the "American Gorbachev." But each "Gorbachev" must have its own Shevardnadze (Shevi) and Yakovlev. In the USSR, Shevardnadze openly surrendered the country's interests to the Americans, accepting the most unfavorable foreign policy options for the USSR. Alexander Yakovlev is called "the gravedigger of the USSR". So far, there is not even a hint of such people in the American government. The head of the State Department, John Kerry, is clearly not a "Chevy", he firmly defends American interests. There is no man who could fit the role of "American Yakovlev, the gravedigger of the United States." Without such personalities, it will be difficult for Obama alone to carry out the "perestroika" program.

      26 March 2014 16: 09
      Satellites are not so easy to thin out, they are located at an altitude of about 20000 km.
      In order to remove one you need a full-fledged space launch with an accelerating block and other canoes. With all this, the loss of one or even several devices will slightly affect the performance of the entire group.
      The GPS signal can be drowned out in principle, but only on a relatively small area, and since the ax has an inertial guidance system (as well as an optical one that uses digital pictures of previously captured areas along the flight path of the Kyrgyz Republic), the deviation will be insignificant.
      The main disadvantages of the ax are:
      1) Cannot hit moving targets.
      2) The cost of about 2 million American rubles.
      3) It is not effective against Russia since industrial centers for the most part are far from the coast at the maximum range of missiles.
      4) The shell is imprisoned just under them.

    On average, almost 100 missiles of this type are launched per year, which means that the cessation of purchases will lead to the fact that the supply of missiles will be completely exhausted by about 2018 year.

    Is the stock of Axes in service with the US Navy just 200 units? belay Very strange

    Moreover, each cruiser and destroyer are designed to accommodate 50 + SLCMs (in the ranks of 84 such ships)

      400, not 200. Although 400, in my opinion, is a little true. From 2004 to February 2010, 2000 pieces of the R / UGM-109E Tomahawk Block IV (TacCom) were produced. So they have a lot of tomahawks of various other modifications.
      Americans are getting dark. Maybe they want to adopt a new missile, about which nothing is yet known. And they don’t say anything about the new rocket, so that allies could push their old stuff away without problems.

    I think they have something else, maybe not much, but just for us. I think this is a hypersonic weapon that was not advertised. And the Shuttle program was canceled not because there was not enough money, but most likely that something else was flying into space. The fact is that there was something like infa in the network about their new spacecraft, based on principles of movement different from the universally known principles of movement, but everything is at the level of rumors and low-quality photos, but here's a strange thing, gold, as soon as they abandoned the shuttles, jumped in price and it disappeared in the Federal Reserve System, now it is almost certain. Gold is a unique material for its conductivity. We read about the ancient VIMANS, and so they are described as if "from the golden color of the material." They are digging Amerskoye ANENERBE, to say Masonic correctly. They (the German unit) all went into hiding after the war. So no one was caught.

Nobody really advertised this event in the mainstream media, although it is very important and significant for those who at least understand something about what is happening. And REN TV showed this for a simple chela almost a year later. Well, you really do not understand the "mission" of such TV channels?

Such mental gestures suggest interesting thoughts. Do you know how much titanium is produced in the world, and how much is consumed? Take an interest. the conclusions will surprise you a little. So any source of information is valuable. You just need to be able to use it.

                Here you are distorting everything. Anyone who wants to find useful for himself, he will find. And I have never been in sects. Vedas existed long before any sects there. And there are not many other sources. The same Bible (Old Testament) is the five-book Torah. They interest me only as sources of information, nothing more. My psyche is stable, it does not allow me to get hooked on to all sorts of idiots, degenerates and renegades. And again, I tell you about Thomas, you tell me about Yeryom. The assets are withdrawn and this fact for the thinking person says that the process of the slow extinction of the USA has begun, as they did so and broke it. And about the search for information in the form of photographs and other things, I don’t publish links, I don’t publish photos. I am not a teacher at school who needs to find one himself. I don’t have to prove and teach anything. It’s simple and clear to me that such things on the network can in no way be evidence, but as a basis for reflection and sending them in one direction or another they are very useful. Sometimes a lack of result is also a result.

    Based on this, I assume that if they are already on the way, at least they already have something that can more than replace these missiles.
    The Americans have such a fashion at first to show that they are all bad and a complete mess in one area or another, but in fact it turns out that the opposite is true.

    Hello Vladimir
    Agree with you!
    Just officially abandon space programs and reduce weapons costs, given that this is all national security .... this requires very good reason. For example - lack of funds for some very global program.
    Again, if you carefully read - it is said that they refused to buy .... Buy what was developed once, and not new developments.
    Here Obama is right, why buy the old and not effective when you consider the latest developments in Russia. It is better to spend these funds on the development of weapons of a new generation. Which they probably do. Especially whom they are afraid of. No one will attack them.

    Axes were considered obsolete already at the end of the 20th century. The Yankees now have plenty of them. But!!! Oh, this is a powerful but! Tomahawks have one powerful drawback: after launch they cannot be retargeted. And before launch they must arrive in a strictly specified area like this like a flight program is created in advance for a specific target and launch location. Unlike our systems with inertial-astronomical positioning and a bunch of options for approaching the target. In short, an ax is an ax and is useless against our systems like “Tunguska” and so on. Here’s the trick in another. According to one of their defense industry companies, they are now not able to create anything new or breakthrough. The scientific potential has been lost, all their new developers are a legacy left over from the Cold War. And new approaches are required

    And in general, let them abandon the Pentagon and the CIA.

    They figured that they weren’t going to fight this year, and the reserves were enough for one or two wars. But they will have to stamp them (just like they print money). It's always like this with them. The budget is not rubber. Today the money was taken from the Air Force and transferred to the Marines, tomorrow they will refuse the new cruiser, but will invest money in a new base in ..... loop, or modernize the Abrams. Everything is in circles

    Don't laugh guys and don't be happy. stopped purchasing cruise missiles for two reasons. 1. the reason is that there are no targets at which the Kyrgyz Republic can strike. Syria and Venezuela are not those states. 2. The reason is that there is a more effective type of weapon, this is internal opposition to the authorities. The Maidan in Kyiv showed this. Well, if anything happens, PMCs will show themselves.

    I agree with previous speakers, they turned to buy because:
    - outdated and does not meet the requirements of countermeasures, let's say c300 - junk, suitable for police operations in third world countries;
    - something new, secret has appeared that can overcome Russian air defense.
    How do you like this formulation of the question?
    You should always assume the worst case scenario, because it will happen!
    And stop making fun of the enemy, teasing only leads to complacency, the states are a serious adversary and so far, in the Cold War, the score is in their favor.
