Washington opposes Seoul's plans to sell T-50 Golden Eagle combat training aircraft to Tashkent

The US authorities opposed the plans of the South Korean government to sell a batch of jointly developed T-50 Golden Eagle combat training aircraft worth 400 million dollars to the Uzbek Air Force because of fears of transferring technology to Russia.

“Uzbekistan has close relations with Russia, and the United States fears that the export of T-50 to Uzbekistan may lead to the transfer of technology to Russia. The South Korean KAI developer negotiated with the Uzbek government on exports (airplanes), but the US government is against this deal, ”quotes the military source of the Korea Times newspaper RIA "News".

It is noted that Uzbekistan planned to purchase a batch of X-NUMX T-12 aircraft from South Korea. During the talks on bilateral cooperation, which took place in April, the head of the Ministry of Defense of Uzbekistan piloted the FA-50 simulator - the light version of the T-50, already exported by South Korea.

The Ministry of Defense of South Korea noted that despite the position of Washington, contact with Uzbekistan on T-50 will be maintained. In addition, efforts will be made for the US authorities to agree to an export deal.

There is nothing wrong with getting enemy know-how. or from Iran their drones, or at one time from Vietnam shot down Amer’s planes, at one time we received a model of a flying fortress after the war and made our first strategic bomber

Why not take advantage of Uzbekistan's "border status" and get some know-how. Moreover, neither KZ nor Belarus has long been suitable for this - too obvious allies of the Russian Federation

[Hey]

Any technique is of interest. There may be some kind of original solution to a seemingly simple question. A block of some sort. Clasp, material, duct, electronics, etc. etc.
For those who make planes, everything is interesting, although for an uninitiated person everything is the same.
Fears of amers really justified. The confrontation between the two systems has not yet been canceled, and industrial espionage as well.

The absence of a radar does not interfere with striking ground targets.

To strike at ground targets, the FA-50 uses Sniper suspension containers, which the Yak-130 does not even plan to, because there is nothing.

Quote: GRAY

The American AN / APG-50 radar station is installed on the T-67; the Israeli EL / M-50 is installed on the TA-50 and FA-2032 variants.
In addition to radar, there is naturally a weapon control system.
Well and the most important thing. I don’t know how Uzbekistan, but all T-50 operators purchased the car only in shock versions.

All the differences between the T-50 and the TA-50 and FA-50 are only in the addition of equipment and a wide range of ASPs. The "classic" T-50 can use medium and short-range missiles thanks to its radar and control system.

But let’s take a look at the other side; there are no radar systems and YMS in any variants on the Yak-130. We are talking accordingly about production cars, not hypothetical ...

Installing "extra" components means increasing the cost, they are not needed for training, their operation is simulated by onboard equipment, which makes it possible to exclude the use of real bombs and missiles.
In fact, the Yak-130 is exactly the same designer as the T-50, there are both training modifications and combat training.

Another possibility is the creation of a light combat aircraft based on the Yak-130, with the installation of easy booking and related equipment.
“The possibility of installing an optical-location station system with the option of increasing the capabilities of the aircraft to use guided weapons is being considered. The system allows you to simply modify the aircraft, ”Popovich said. - The installation of a radar in the bow is the most difficult and biggest revision, which is under development. If a decision is made to finalize the aircraft into a light combat aircraft, this idea will be realized. ” According to open sources, the Bars-130 airborne radar station (BRL) can be installed on the Yak-130. “Naturally, work is underway to build up the weapons that are now being adopted by the RF Armed Forces,” he added.
In the light combat version of the Yak-130, in addition, a radio electronic warfare system (EW) and an aiming complex will be installed. Also, the car will change to ensure easy booking. The aircraft can be introduced in-flight refueling system.
The issue of upgrading the Yak-130 is currently being discussed with the Air Force, the required technical specifications and the amount of funding are determined.

Typically Russian wishful thinking. The T-50 exists in shock versions, in which it is sold, the Yak-130 exists only in the form of a trainer, of course it can use unguided ammunition, but only by eye.

Well, what are you so lazy, is it really difficult to read about the Yak-130? Information sea!
We go to the website of the Yakovlev Design Bureau http://www.yak.ru/prod/new_130.php, find the Yak-130 and read:

The aircraft is equipped with an integrated remote control system that performs the functions of an automatic control system and an active flight safety system and allows, for educational purposes, to reprogram the stability and controllability characteristics depending on the type of simulated aircraft.

The on-board system for simulating combat use modes provides:

-imitation of air combat with search, detection, identification, capture and tracking of air targets, launching air-to-air missiles with thermal and radar homing heads, launching missiles and jamming by the enemy, using the means of the airborne defense complex;
-interaction with other aircraft in the group and ground and air control points;
-simulation of attacks of ground targets with the launch of air-to-surface missiles with radar, television, thermal and laser homing heads, unguided missiles, dropping bombs, firing cannons, launching anti-aircraft missiles and jamming by the enemy, using airborne defense systems.

At MFIs, for training purposes, an imitation of attacks by ground targets is created. This is not real, it is a training record for practicing certain exercises.
I repeat, on the Yak-130 there is NO means of target detection, nor thermal imagers, nor laser rangefinders, nor digital cameras ...
Rather, there are cameras, they are installed in the cockpit and record the actions of the student ...

The Yak-130 is certainly a beautiful aircraft and the flight modes of different aircraft can simulate, but the KAI T-50 Golden Eagle has a radar, navigation system and guidance equipment for air-to-air, air-to-ground missiles and guided aerial bombs. Compared to the Yak-130, this T-50 Golden Eagle flies without a PTB over a long range (200-300 km) at a higher speed and at a higher altitude.
Regarding technology, it certainly does not print on a 3D printer. The same manual assembly with rolling scaffolds and ladders.

In addition to the cannon version, which has been known for a long time and in detail (modification with a 25mm five-barreled GAU-22 cannon), there is also a version with electronic warfare systems and some "additional electronic sensors". The version with electronic warfare systems is intended for the Corps, to replace the outdated EA-6B Prowler, since the EA-18G Growler is a toy for the fleet, and the Marines need their own vehicle, preferably a relatively cheap and versatile option. It is very reasonable to use the F-35B equipped with additional systems for this - this not only ensures the unification of the fleet, but also opens up additional opportunities due to its capabilities for a shortened takeoff. "Additional electronic sensors" is probably some kind of basic electronic reconnaissance system, which should provide the ability to accurately detect enemy radars and, at least, issue target designations to PRR, for example, on the AGM-88E AARGM.
At the Farnborough 2012 exhibition, a mock-up of just such an option was presented.

Perhaps in order not to bring down Lightning or corrupt the Uzbeks, it was necessary to go to the exhibition and take a picture.

To date, in the region from the side of official structures of states there are no territorial claims to each other.
Meanwhile, the borders of the republics do not correspond to ethnic borders, which in the future may serve as the cause of ethnic conflicts in the following places:
- In Osh and Uzgen between Kyrgyz and Uzbeks;
- in Samarkand and Bukhara between Uzbeks and Tajiks, who were recorded as Uzbeks in the 30s;
- in the south of Kazakhstan between Kazakhs and Uzbeks;
- in the Khujansk region between Uzbeks and Tajiks;
- in the Shaartuz region between Tajiks and Uzbeks;
- in Karakalpakia between Uzbeks and Karakalpaks;
- in the oases of the Amu Darya between Uzbeks and Turkmens.
These conflicts are potential and unsolvable, their absolute non-occurrence may be associated with the internationalization of the terrain according to the type of relations that existed in the Russian Empire or now exist in the United States.
Otherwise, with the weakening of the official structures of the state (say, caused by clan political showdowns or coups, natural disasters, etc.), interethnic and religious wars of Muslims are inevitable. And what is most sad, they will be permanent until a new owner comes for them or a new authoritarian regime or empire is formed.
