Media about the new mountain of American F-35

155
The work on the F-35 fighter information systems is behind the scheduled schedule on 11 months, RIA News message portal Business Insider.



“It is expected that the developers of the fifth-generation fighter-bomber of the fifth generation Lockheed Martin F-35" Lightning "II will miss the key deadline for the release of the sixth software block of the Block 3F aircraft," the portal said, explaining that "this part of the code is responsible for combat and training capabilities of the machine. "

“Without the F-35 code, there simply will not be,” says the publication.

According to the head of the US Department of Defense Testing and Evaluation Department, Michael Gilmore, “the plane will not be fully operational by the planned date - July 2017 of the year”.

At the same time, he noted that “the main problems of the vessel have long been known - the incompleteness of the IT skeleton of the fighter — autonomous information management system, instability of avionics in the Block 3F phase, insufficient reliability and maintainability of the engine.”

After all, now the Jews are prohibited from changing its avionics when buying the F-35. In this situation, the Americans can lift the ban. Maybe then "Lightning" will fly as planned.

          In fact, we have already agreed on the possibility of replacement. The Israeli version is called f35i. The only thing that the first 19 aircraft will go in the basic international version. And the rest are already sharpened under Israeli requirements

        I am not sure of the correctness of my conclusions, but what I read here on the site and what I read, for the sake of interest in other sources, led me to think that the Americans were trying to create a universal plane. As far as I know, such attempts were earlier, including those of our designers, but ours refused to attempt universalization and were right! An attempt to combine in one hammer both a chisel and a sledgehammer, and what else can be combined there, in my opinion, is doomed to failure initially! Correct me if I am wrong.

          You are both right and wrong at the same time. In principle, a certain versatility is possible and needed - for example, such a class of aircraft as a fighter-bomber. For example, the Su-35 is a very formidable fighter, one of the first in the world. But he also "knows how" to work on the ground, although here his capabilities will be inferior to a specialized bomber / missile carrier. But here's how the Su-35 attack aircraft is completely unusable, and of course, it would never occur to anyone to try to make a vertical takeoff and landing aircraft out of it.
          Again - technicians, brave guys, in principle, can make a good multi-purpose aircraft, but genetics, these messy clever men, still have not bothered to breed universal pilots. You can prepare an ace of air combat, which is also capable of striking at ground targets, but he can’t achieve mastery in the high art of a bomber - completely different art, other training and all that. And vice versa, a bomber pilot is quite possible, able to fend for himself in an air battle - but put him in a fighter and send him into battle against the master of air battle - nothing can be done.
          Therefore, some reasonable universality makes sense. It is not always possible to use the required number of bombers - why then not bring fighters to business, entrusting them with relatively simple hired targets?
          But the Americans managed to try to link such fundamentally different machines as VTOL, fighter and bomber in one design. Instead of trying to make some modern analogue of the F-16 and F-18, which could change the workhorses of the fleet and the Air Force (and this task was for American filmmakers on the shoulder), they began to wise with a vertical take-off ... well, they ruined the program , of course.

          Think right. The idea was good, but initially it went wrong. In addition to the possibilities in the technical specifications, the limitation of the final price was proposed - ~ 80 million per piece, depending on the version. More than 3000 vehicles are planned to be built. It did not work out, they are already fighting so as not to "take off" for 150 million, but problems are like a snowball: the cannon of the Marines will not fire until 2019, the ship is out of tune with the deck, the IT specialists need to rewrite millions of lines. There is a lot of advanced stuff, but stuffing it all under the skin and making it work will take a sweat.
          Already they say that he will not be able to fully replace the fleet of airplanes: against the A-10 it is too fast and not protected, against -16 it is not so agile, -15 will not raise as much, -18 on the deck will replace ... The T-50 has time get on the wing, let's see what will be offered to replace the Su-25. In general, the Russian concept looks more mundane, but it will work more confidently, and trample on the market ...

            Something you all poured into one bottle. Americans are not at all, as many people think. They know how to build aircraft and F-15 and F-16 confirmation of this. But even the same F-15 has a lot of modifications for different purposes. Do not forget about the Raptor - not a very weak car. Lightning is an attempt to replace the F-16 with some additional features, and the Americans do not fill everything in the world in the same plane as we do. There will be an F-35 for both the Air Force and the Navy, but it will still be different planes.

          Not quite right. The Americans were replacing the already obsolete F-16. In principle, they got their way. The characteristics of the F-35, whatever we say, is better than that of the F-16. So everything has grown together. Well, Lightning disease from the category of children. Our T-50 is also not yet in the army. Will finish yet. Money will be printed and finished.

            Lightning disease is from the category of conceptual rather than children's ones.
            What, damn it, children’s if he had his first flight in 2000 and since 2006 sawed small series, while seemingly already having experience working on the fifth generation?
            Initially, it was conceived as an addition to the 22nd. Moreover, a much cheaper addition than the 22nd.
            Type a pair of the 15th and 16th.
            Among the number of shortcomings of the 22nd there is a significant for the Pentagon - the lack of the ability to work on the ground. Therefore, the 35th was to, including, receive enhanced shock capabilities.
            Sorry, it’s invented, yeah, the heavy one flutters without looking down, and the light one must be laced upside down with any baida in order to flop around different sheds.
            Then the thought came to clever figures - and what for we are generally a variety sort in different forms, let's generally make one letach for all. Well, like, we’ll introduce him only modifications and shit, that’s happiness.
            No sooner said than paid.
            And the 35th began to do one in three faces - both for the army and for the navy and for the marine corps.
            It turned out that this is complete fun. For example, the Marines are now hysterical, they can't finish finishing the 35th for their needs. Now they, poor things, are finishing off their harriers by extending their service life and buying in addition seven dozen decommissioned aircraft from the Britons purely for spare parts. Since squeezing everything into a "universal strike for all" aircraft, which was initially planned as just a budgetary supplement to the 22nd, it does not work sensibly. Already in 35B they abandoned the use of 900-kg bombs, having cut the sturgeon down to 450-kg and still the stone flower does not come out.
            The next zrada - having made a light fighter a "universal strike" suddenly discovered that it stupidly began to lack traction and maneuverability, that it was never "like the 16th only of the fifth generation", it turns out that it has ceased to fit into some of the requirements for the fifth generation , for example, to the possibility of a long flight at supersonic without afterburner.
            Then they made a feint, like why did the fifth generation need all kinds of speed, maneuverability? His type of business flew up, hit from afar and ran away.
            Oha. Only here are other diseases. For such tactics, you need to have appropriate weapons, and the 36th does not have missiles that can be hit without entering the affected area, it has the longest-range AIM-120, which has been spanked for thirty years and which flies up to a hundred, despite the fact that at a hundred it is fig at whom it hits, the probability of hitting at such a distance is not so impressive. And for normal air defense systems, seeing the 35th is not a special problem - all "stealth" is sharpened for the centimeter range (while optimized in the frontal projection), while the air defense radars are multi-range. And it is not particularly difficult to dump the 35th yourself or throw a tip at it for fighters.
            Despite the fact that the declared detection range by 35 meters is 150 km. Moreover, it is for the purpose with an EPR of 3 square meters. And with a probability of detection of 0,5 rather than guaranteed detection. And at the same time for scanning in a narrow sector and irradiating the target for 2 seconds. Those. in fully polygon conditions.
            Those. the elaborated application concept is doubtful.
            In general, there you can sing odes to geniuses who, having conceived one thing, managed to make from an initially normal airplane it is not clear what. And the prospect of adopting the F-35 for arms has not yet been seen.

Replace all F-15s and F-16s that are in service with NATO. The EU needs to reduce the allocation of funds for nuclear submarines and frigates, and vice versa to invest in the entire F-35 defense budget.

And it was written about this.
          The United States intends to build 500 F-35 fighters of all three versions before the completion of 3F software development, Bloomberg News reports.
          Tests of the aircraft will continue until at least August 2018, when Block 3F will be integrated into all manufactured aircraft. In 2015, 45 aircraft were produced, by 2018 it is planned to reach level 100, and by 2020 the production rate will increase to 120 aircraft in year. This year, 2016 aircraft should be produced for all customers.
          The main reason for the delays is the development of Block 3F software. Its creation can only be completed at the end of 2017, whereas the end of 2016 was previously planned. The F-35 is called a “flying computer,” whose software consists of 8 million lines.

            You see, I am an economist, by education and profession, and that's why I'm used to counting! Let's take a look at the calculations. You say the Americans are planning to build 500 F-35s. I was not too lazy to see its cost, the figures are different, but on average, somewhere around $ 100 million. Multiply 100 * 000 = $ 000. Next, we look at the cost of the contract for two Mistrals, which is 500 euros. Converting $ 50 yards to euros, that's about 000 yards. Divide this amount by the cost of one Mistral, we get 000 ships. I understand that the Mistral is not the best ship in the world, but 000 ships and 1 planes !!! What is more profitable ?!

            I understand that the comparison is not correct, there are different functions and goals, but all the same, the effect of 76 ships will be higher than that of 500 aircraft! Especially considering that the ships may not be Mistrals, but some kind of nuclear submarine or something else! In addition, 100 million, this is far from the final cost, how much it will cost to fine-tune the software and other nodes to a sane state, God and the Pentagon alone knows!

              You are absolutely right. The functions are completely different. Moreover, you calculated the cost of the box without its filling, weapons, crew, and so on. By the way, the majority of specialists also estimate the cost of the T-50 at $ 100 million, and what is more preferable to leave the Air Force without modern aircraft, and to buy another submarine? In aviation, as life shows, the demand is higher.

                I understand that Wikipedia is a brehun, but still: "At the same time, according to Putin, the plane will be 2,5-3 times cheaper than foreign counterparts. India planned to purchase the PAK FA at a price of $ 100 million per plane."

                Do not confuse the cost of the aircraft for yourself and the cost of export! In addition, the characteristics of our aircraft are much higher than those of the US. Anticipating your valid objection, how do I know, I’ll say. I don’t know, nobody knows, but experience shows that when the launch in the series is delayed, our planes turn out better, an example is the American F-15 versus our Su-27! You do not think that I am a sucker! I work in a serious enterprise related to the military-industrial complex and I am required to understand many things by job. I did not say that aviation should be left without new cars, God forbid, on the contrary, aviation is one of the main priorities! The question is different, the ratio of costs to the final result, and here it is, the Americans have big problems! As far as I understand it, the aircraft is raw and its refinement is postponed further and further and no one can say the final cost, that's what it is about!

                  I never think badly of a person without good reason. As for your promise of the superiority of the Su-27 over the F-15, this is an unsubstantiated assumption. F-15 participated in a much larger number of conflicts and perfectly established itself.

Secondly, the SU-27 was created in response to the F-15, and at first, by its characteristics, these first F-15s did not catch up. And even now, the F-15 and Su-27 are quite comparable opponents.

      By the way, American military experts are increasingly raising the topic of recreating the specialization of combat aircraft of the type, F-15, F-16, A-10, or our MiG-31, Su-27, MiG-29, Su-25, etc. because, in fact, it is more efficient and cheaper. They believe that the seizure of the entire combat aircraft market by one company led to this "wonder of the world." In addition to all this, they believe that after all these projects, their pilots will still need to be returned to a normal psychological state of a fighter pilot, or an attack aircraft (and this problem is just beginning to emerge, its effect is yet to come), they are not happy with the dominance of software , and the F-35 suffers from it no less than from other bells and whistles. everything should be in moderation. In short, there are proposals to remove the F-16 from storage, "Superhornets" and simply "Hornets" will reign on aircraft carriers, and so they constantly write about the A-10. So, food for thought.

And if tomorrow a new one appears high tech (this word is an American trend) is a super plane that will eclipse all the planes in the world ............ Americans will forget the F-35 as well as the F-117, in which the Pentagon invested almost as much money as in his R&D is Lockheed Martin.

    in a large-scale war, of course, an inexpensive and technologically advanced weapon wins, and all these expensive military toys are good for the Papuans and natives who have no means of struggle against them.

      I wonder who the Americans want to start a large-scale war with. With Russia or what? These are their dreams and they know that they cannot do this purely physically. You will recall how many millions of soldiers were prepared at the border for an attack on the USSR, how many military equipment and aircraft.
      Neither America nor NATO will be able, like Hitler, to concentrate such an army at present at the borders of Russia.
      Therefore, we have to fear a "global non-nuclear strike" with high-precision, high-tech and not at all cheap weapons - 15000 cruise and ballistic missiles. Our air defense and missile defense are not able to shoot down all these missiles launched within one hour.
      But again, the concentration of carriers of these weapons around the land and sea borders of Russia is not possible. This is the default preparation for an attack and also will not go unnoticed.
      Conclusion - we will not have, as you say, a "large-scale" war with NATO and America. Any "large-scale" use of non-nuclear weapons will have a thermonuclear response.
      But with individual countries, Ukraine or Turkey, we can fight without the use of nuclear weapons.

      Did you joke so subtly right now?
      The 35th, firstly, is not a real first-generation aircraft at once for several requirements that are put forward for fifth-generation aircraft. Secondly, it is not real in the sense that it is real as a combat unit and it is not even known to the developers when it appears in that capacity. Rather, the terms are called, but judging by the number of times it was all postponed and postponed, the called dates are not certain but an excuse.
      About a series of 2,5 thousand is also a subtle mockery.
      The F-22 was originally planned as a series of multiple larger than what was actually released. Most likely, the 35th orders will be reduced even more than the 22nd. It is not yet in fact (it was announced that it will be fully armed in 2019, which also causes skepticism) and many countries are already beginning to doubt it and reduce future orders.

            Nope. Firstly, afterburning super-sound has long been achieved on aircraft of the previous generation. You are talking about cruising afterburner. So he has a lot of problem moments. In particular, the engine resource is killed. Significance is doubled. And other lovely moments. In maneuvering, afterburner afterburning is more important. And you still can’t get away from a rocket even on a cruising afterburner, it cannot be compared with speed - there is no limiter in the person of a person who is experiencing overload. In addition, cruising afterburning on the F-35 is still there, and has been declared for a long time. There were times when he was absent, but long ago sank into oblivion.

Americans do not need over-maneuverability, for example. It’s just that they solved her tasks through an all-angle review and advanced electronics.

              In fact, only stealth wins multiple times. But now more and more discussions are going on, but is it so necessary? Indeed, for decimeter radars, these stealth are quite well visible, as for centimeter from many projections that differ from the frontal. And for the sake of stealth, you have to make big sacrifices such as lower combat load, refusals from external suspension and other things, confused structures, difficulties with maintenance, etc. Those. skepticism began to appear.
              But you are right that the requirements for generations are changing. Moreover, in the direction of lowering these requirements wink

                Well, this would not have been put forward in due time by the requirement for the new generation if it had been achieved easily and naturally on previous planes.
                If I'm not mistaken, then the Yankees themselves included it in the set of mandatory parameters for the fifth generation, at least I read it from them.

                25 years ago. Reached on the F-22. Reached on the F-35. But removed from the dominant requirements.
                And the demand was the opportunity to overcome dozens of kilometers on overburning supersonic sound.

                Quote: VP
                They simply "proudly refused" it when they began to understand what kind of miracle Yudo turns out. Initially, they tried to make the 35th as a kind of functional analogue of the 16th but the next generation, their ambitions for maneuverability ended later.

                They achieved super-maneuverability on the F-22. Thrust vector controlled engine. But then, realizing that it was problematic to compete with any new all-angle missiles, F-35 refused this requirement. But they have the so-called transparent cockpit, which allows the pilot to look through the body of the aircraft.
                And about maneuverability ...
                F-35 fully maintains control at an angle of attack of 50 °.

                It is able to fly tail-to-tail, maintaining control even at supercritical angles of attack (110 °) and, at the request of the pilot, confidently return to horizontal flight. Watch the first minute. Anyway, look at all three parts of the video, maybe most of the stupid questions will go away.

            Hi, is there an article about f-22? Interesting to read.
            Well, in general it is not clear, the f-22 has a good all-angle launch detection system
            http://www.lockheedmartin. com/content/dam/lockheed/data/mfc/pc/missile-launch-detector-mld/mfc-mld-pc.pdf
            whose capabilities will be expanded to OLS: "Lockheed Martin continues to advance the modular design of MLD with thedevelopment of both high resolution and multi-spectral sensors and an expandedalgorithm that incorporates situational awareness and defensive Infrared Search andTrack (IRST)"
            all-angle shelling is implemented in aim-9x, which they have been staffing with recently

            And as for the f-35, its Americans are not so low in level compared to the f-22

      Not at all quiet and not at all calm. With tantrums and scandals.
      To date, they have indicated the date of acceptance into service in 2019. This is not the first, and most likely not the last, transfer. Let me remind you that the first flight of the F-35 was in 2000.
      Hypersonic missiles against air defense systems ... The declared range of target detection in firing conditions at F-35 is 150 km.
      The detection range of both the S-300 and the S-400 Malekho is greater. And the question is - why do you need an F-35 for those missiles?
      Will this rocket fit into the plane or will it have a range of 50 kilometers? I remind you that the F-35 has an internal suspension, i.e. severe restrictions on the dimensions of weapons.
      And something tells me that a rocket that will work at an acceptable range and have a speed greater than 5 km / s (the target speed at which four hundred can no longer work, it has a slightly lower target maximum) will not even be shallow.

              If I'm not mistaken, the state of initial combat readiness of the Americans is considered if the combat readiness of the aircraft is above 50%.
              Those. limited fit. Very limited. Almost unsuitable for conducting full-fledged hostilities and cannot be involved in operations. They determined the calculated combat readiness by the 19th year.
              And you can understand why this was done (from the initial battle). Just look at the belonging of this squadron.
              VMFA-121 belongs to the Marine Corps. It is the KMP that has the most difficult situation with the 35th. They extend the life of their harriers by disassembling old ones for parts due to the fact that the replacement of "vertical units" does not work out yet.
              Having made a bet on the F-35, they were left without an airplane that had the possibility of a short take-off, the horn does not replace them.

The EU needs to reduce the allocation of funds for nuclear submarines and frigates, and vice versa to invest in the entire F-35 defense budget.

        This is all about the cost of one line of code. In aviation, for obvious reasons, it is checked much more seriously. As an example, according to statistics, verification of the code of the system with the highest level of criticality A (there are 5 of them: A, B, C, D, E) is on average 70% of the cost of developing the code as a whole.
