Final F-35 testing postponed to 2018 g

The final test of the newest American fighter F-35 was transferred to 2018 g, reports Look With reference to Pentagon’s head of defense procurement department Frank Kendall.

According to Kendall, "it was originally planned to be tested in the middle of the 2017 of the year, now they are moved to the beginning of the 2018 of the year."

In turn, the head of the F-35 program, Chris Bogdan, clarified that “the tests were planned to start in August or September of the 2017 year, but now the start date is postponed until January-February of the 2018.”

According to him, "there is a problem in all 23 aircraft designed for testing." “It is necessary to debug the final version of the control system - Block 3F”, Bogdan added.

At the same time, he noted that “this problem has nothing to do with the already known malfunctions, due to which the aircraft’s control system stops working and has to be restarted”.

Bogdan also said that the delivery of the revised software Block 3F will be carried out only in the late autumn of next year.

Previously, the media has repeatedly noted that the newest F-35 is “mired in problems”, however, in spite of everything, its production continues.

I think Lockheed doesn’t need to postpone the testing of the aircraft - the company loses a lot of money on this for not concluded contracts. They simply have to do it because they themselves (years?) Are not ready.

I'm afraid you wishful thinking.
Now the situation on the plane looks something like this. There is a full cycle of testing the aircraft, it includes ... well, let it be for the sake of simplicity 1000 various tests (in fact, many more, this is just an example for me). On F-35 did 600 and ran into technical problems. They just didn’t start 400 yet - the software does not allow it. Therefore, the rest of 400 was postponed until the software was ready.
Those. yes, some technical problems seemed to have been eradicated (and then say, is it all? Have they really solved the buffing problem? I haven’t heard something ...), but it’s completely unclear if this is really so. About whether they will let themselves know these problems in the future can only be judged after the completion of the remaining tests. And they will not be until there is software.
And therefore, to say that the technique on the plane is in order, it remains only to add a couple of macros is not correct.
Again, if the feeling that some of the design problems are now being transferred to software. For example, the F-35 showed a tendency to stall on the wing during intense maneuvering. As I heard, EDSU was declared to be guilty of everything, which made it possible to transfer the arrows to software, but is this really so? Or is the glider design the problem? For the time being, it seems that Lockheed is pounding on software in the hope of gaining some more time to eliminate numerous technical "bugs".

Not this way. The full test BLock3i in which it will be adopted in service passed. (F-35 Joint Program Office declares development of 2B and 3i software complete, giving full attention to 3F software which contains the full initial warfighting capability for all variants. (May 9)).

Problems arose with the integration of new weapons and the interaction of new systems in the block 3F, the deadlock of 2019 so that it is still on schedule.
The rest of the aircraft showed good reliability, has 60,000 flight hours with a serious one incident. During this week, I made two transatlantic (non-stop) flights.

About other problems that are listed in the DOte report for 2015, they do not appear or appear to be resolved.

It is not limited, but the initial combat readiness is declared; all US planes pass through it. For the FOC, a whole list of requirements, including locations based. For the F-35A until 2019, now is the target fall 2017 or early 2018

and? What military programs went according to plan? the F-15 was nearly shut down at the time due to cost overruns and a craze in prices (it cost more than 2 times more than the previous generation of an airplane.). And now everything is going well with the F-35, new orders, + additional orders from the Air Force and the Navy and the United States Naval Forces, the price is less than $ 100 million for 2017. There is nothing to delay for a couple of months.

Please explain how it is possible to conduct 100% tests of aircraft materiel if software is not ready for it and it simply cannot be operated and tested in full because of the unavailability of this software itself? F-35 should roll back the test program, but even then, the plane would go into the hands of Lipetsk aces, who would pull all the wires out of it in order to clearly understand what the plane can and what cannot. Despite the fact that at this stage some technical flaws would be revealed. And so it turns out that F-35 will be ready for full-scale EXPERIENCED operation where-thread in 2018 - 2019. Which is still unclear what will show.

Sorry well, this is completely stupid. in the pilot operation of the F-35A now, and from August 2016 will be operated in combat-ready version.
some requirement for IOC requirement
"Air Force F-35A initial operational capability (IOC) shall be declared when the first operational squadron is equipped with 12-24 aircraft, and Airmen are trained, manned, and equipped to conduct basic Close Air Support (CAS), Interdiction, and limited Suppression and Destruction of Enemy Air Defense (SEAD / DEAD) operations in a contested environment.

In my opinion. Ok software. And what we see in Syria is the operation of electronic warfare systems. How to deal with this? After all, they rely on strikes from distances without entering into the near maneuver. the fight. But I’m afraid missiles in-in will not be able to overcome electronic warfare systems. Then there is only melee with AP, and this is not for the F-35. This, in my opinion, is a big problem for the F-35 - you need another plane.

[Alexez]

so after all the problems remained only with the software. All other performance characteristics are brought to the required. And the software will improve all the time. There is no limit to improving avionics.

I’m not sure that everything is so simple. Dopilit software type patch to put - this is not flying windows. Controllers that have their limitations, CPU, data bus, and a lot of all sorts of problems with related software. Although the analogy of the F-35 with flying windows is quite the place to be)))

Not really, but what is surprising that there are problems in the new software? The main thing they have already done this year is completed BLOCK 3I. Let’s go to make a new problem, but in another way it doesn’t happen in our world.
I can say right away that any plane will have new problems when testing new systems, for which tests and tests do this.

As for the 35th car is interesting, the idea is good, the implementation is still 4-ku, but by washing it will not be washed. Another thing is that the general excuse with software problems has already put on a sore edge (well, in fact, just like the statements in which US politicians use the word DEMOCRACY). Whatever the problem, everything rests on software Can we take this evil software and cancel it? It's very convenient to write everything off to software, because software can be rewritten forever ...

ILC USA ...

I explain, without the specialists from DefenseNews: what you "specified" and stated about the defect-freeness, the F-35B has been in operation since 2012 for educational purposes. The operators, and this is the ILC, could only write complaints to the manufacturer. Neither I, nor You, nor DefenseNews will ever know about the content of these complaints. And if suddenly, what an eccentric, he publishes this information - he has a direct road to a kick in the ass from the armed forces and a prison for disclosure, this is in any state, not only in the USA

Well, actually since July 2015, he has been declared combat ready and yes, the ILC has all the rules they have different software.

Earlier media repeatedly noted that the latest F-35 was mired in problems

The main problem is corruption in the US military-industrial complex, and this problem has no solution to date. Accordingly, the fate of the F-35 is also in a big, big fog. Let American taxpayers have a headache for him.

We have exactly the same. First, the ICG, acceptance into service, then the break-in in the troops. Somewhat crudely written, but in a general sense so. Any new product undergoes further testing in the army, not all jambs are detected immediately, this requires a very large raid on the clock. Problems with the firmware are of course unpleasant, but they are not as dangerous for the entire program as problems with a glider for example or an engine.

A plane whose software requires a reboot for normal flight or the use of weapons directly during the flight (sorry for the tautalogy), you call not pleasant, but not dangerous?
And if you need to reboot over the village and it does not succeed? And all this crap will fall on residential buildings, but what if it also comes with weapons?
Aren't you funny yourself? Although it may be funny at home, it’s not yours under it.

[yehat]

they wrote somewhere that the marine version of the F-35 has insoluble problems with the position of the hook and the necessary accuracy when landing, and that this is a very unpleasant problem.

[Krsk]

... however, no matter what, its production continues.

uh, you write nonsense. Such a plan is still valid since 2012 that the adoption of the F-35A in 2016 in the BLOCK 3I configuration. The fact that there is a slight delay on Block 3f- is not about anything since the deadline is 2019. A shift of 2-4 months is nonsense, until the fall of 2017 or January 2018.

Air Force F-35A initial operational capability (IOC) shall be declared when the first
operational squadron is equipped with 12-24 aircraft, and Airmen are trained, manned, and equipped to conduct basic Close Air Support (CAS), Interdiction, and limited Suppression and Destruction of Enemy Air Defense (SEAD / DEAD) operations in a contested

Have you got something new?
And I have a couple of counter questions.
How is this video you referred to about the transfer of F-35b to 2019 ....

And where are these helmets for Pak-fa (now even on the T-50-6, conventional ZS is used)? already a year has passed. At least once did they rise in air, or didn’t they leave the concept further?
http://vk.com/wall-31794821_183685

[srelock]

Well, I say that they will accept their "craft" on time in any form, and they will finish it later.
The video hasn’t changed, I didn’t say anything about 2019, and I’m still waiting for the end of this fascinating and dramatic series called JSF The ending promises to be exciting
If it is not interesting to watch - 14:00

You have the old version in the picture, the new one looks like this:

and from him "simple pissing with mortal rags were driven away", but said that less than 2 kg. and what about the T -50.

PS. To emoticons, etc. do not pay attention, the idea of ​​JSF in itself is not bad, but the embodiment of it ...

[megafair]

Hah, not surprisingly, their F-22 Raptor still has problems, and how many years have passed. Pilots refuse to fly it, because the life support system has repeatedly failed, they call it a flying coffin. I feel the F-35 has the same perspective.

[Wedmak]

That is, then at least still change the software for almost aircraft? And most likely also part of the electronics. They will cut the money ... for a couple more hundred maybachs.

[Mountain shooter]

Well, the wind in their back. While the information is "fried", one should be wary of it. Think of Starfighter. How many pilots did he kill? But at first everything was so beautiful! With this plane for a long time all sorts of misunderstandings.
Yes, and he is ugly. Like the Chinese, it’s just some ugly duckling. My aesthetic feeling suggests that this wunderwaffle will not fly too well. Electronics it may have a super-duper, but the plane FLY must, far, quickly and still maneuver ...

[Irbis77]

Frank Kendall, Head of Defense Procurement, Pentagon. the author with a surname was mistaken .. Frank Kidalov. throws the American people to the fullest. Well, okay.

[shinobi]

As practice shows, the simpler the system, the more reliable it is. As an exaggerated example, you can take the Mauser rifle, Kalash. And Western systems, in my opinion, are too overloaded with electronics that does not allow the pilot to directly control. Here it is necessary to determine, or a complete robot (which is impossible at the moment) or refuse extra bells and whistles.

[voyaka uh]

"And Western systems, in my opinion, are too overloaded with electronics
which does not allow the pilot to directly control "////

Why should the pilot be controlled? Almost everything can now be performed by an auto pilot, including
bends and aerobatics. Moreover, the auto pilot will make it safer,
than a pilot.
And the pilot needs to focus on finding targets, shooting and work
in the group - transmission / reception / analysis of information from other aircraft and ground forces.

[voyaka uh]

To make it clearer:
Now airplanes that are already flying (about 200 units) have 89% of the maximum
planned program code.
The remaining 11% of the code is NOT related to flight, to the control of the aircraft (therefore, planes fly
without crashes), but only to the integration of all weapon systems, interface capabilities and built-in
training programs.

How would you explain it more clearly? For example, it was planned that the Su-35 should carry the BR "Brahmos".
And the software for this is not ready yet. This does not mean that the Su-35 cannot fly and fight with the rest of its weapons, but only that it cannot (yet) let Bramosa into the enemy.

• Block 3i - Block 3i provides the same tactical capabilities as Block 2B. The principal difference between 2B and 3i is the implementation of new hardware, specifically the updated Integrated Core Processor.
The Air Force will declare IOC with Block 3i. With Block 3i,
89 percent of code required for full warfighting capability is flying.
• Block 3F - Block 3F provides 100 percent of the software required for full warfighting capability,
including but not limited to data link imagery, full weapons and embedded training.

[Operator]

No need to try to distort the words of the Pentagon representatives - they clearly indicated that the state tests of the F-35 as a combat aircraft are planned only in two years. Prior to this, the Penguin can be operated without data transmission from avionics to outboard aviation weapons, i.e. in the cannon fighter mode of World War II.

Moreover, there is no need to spread misinformation about the alleged unavailability of the Su-35S multifunctional fighter (it has already been tested in Syria) to take on board any suspended aircraft weapons. The Su-35S has a proven data link as part of the S-107-1 onboard communications system. India will buy the Su-35S - the joint-development KR "Brahmos" will connect the flight.

PS Congratulations on your new Israeli Air Force F / T-35 Penguin training aircraft

[voyaka uh]

You are in a hurry with congratulations - in December
will be something to congratulate. But thanks anyway.

And we have no problems with the development / refinement of software - this is a favorite Israeli hobby.
F-35s are sold to us along with the full software code, which
Already adapts to our weapons.
So by the time of receipt of all weapons: and in the internal
compartments, and on external pylons will be functional.
And the pilots have been training for a long time. In December, you can immediately
go on combat missions.

Thank you, good people have not yet been translated ...
I also wish you to bring the T-50 project to combat status as soon as possible.
Do not tighten.

[yehat]

and what are they training on?

[yehat]

as far as I found out, the F-35 has serious problems in interacting in a group. A single one seems to fly, but with group flight the problems are so great that there have already been several incidents when cars urgently planted a carrot

[voyaka uh]

This is interesting information.
It splits into two parts: "A single one seems to be flying" - I was overjoyed ...

Two: "but with a group flight, the problems are so big," - group flight
the F-35 differs from the usual one in that there is no communication on the radio between the pilots.
the interaction is carried out by the notes of each on the display, which the whole group sees.
Moreover, the group is dispersed over a wide front without visual contact.
This case is very new, and jambs are undoubtedly possible. But this is the beauty of flexible software,
that the iron does not need to be redone, and shovel only software.

[Operator]

The "look" cited only part of the message from Reuters - the Pentagon spokesman also announced the total cost of the F-35 program after the release of all 3000 planned aircraft (taking into account R&D funding, production costs and operating costs) - 1,5 trillion US dollars or half a billion per aircraft.

At the same time, he noted that “this problem has nothing to do with the already known malfunctions, due to which the aircraft’s control system stops working and has to be restarted”.

An interesting comment. I would like to understand, but at least some of the problems of the small but very proud bird F-35 have been finally solved? Do new ones arise after solving old ones, or are they revealed. what is called "to the heap"? And can a situation still arise when the burden of unresolved problems will outweigh the scales on which the money and patience of Pentagon officials lie?
