"Começam a cair os F-22 americanos!!!!!"

[Luís Henrique]

Rapaz, essa eu não conhecia não...

E eu queria não ter conhecido.

[Luís Henrique]

E o que eles fizeram de tão corajoso?

Assumiram o risco de matar o seu maior algoz, mesmo com toda a rede de terrorismo que o cara tem. É pouco?

Até cachorro vira lata ataca quando é agredido.
Além do mais, o Osama é um terrorista. Culhões seria atacar a China ou a Rússia, não uma rede terrorista.

[Carlos Mathias]

O Império do Norte é demais.

Dez anos atrasados, trilhões e trilhões de dólares depois, milhares ou talvez milhões de mortes de inocentes depois, dois países arrasados por guerras, e uma economia esfrangalhada; depois disso conseguiram matar o Osama.
Que já foi tarde.

Vão lá e matam o cara

Ahã...
O paquistão não sabia de nada mesmo.

e usam helicoptero do futuro

Que caiu e se esfarelou como um heli do passado.
Uma única operação e o heli cai.
Outra pane?
Será que entrou areia?

e falam foda-se pro resto do mundo.

Podiam fazer umas operações stealth dessas no Irã...
Isso sim seria um grande "foda-se".

Queria que o Brasil fosse assim.

Eu jamais gostaria que o Brasil fosse assim, jamais!

[Bolovo]

Mas vc cai em qualquer trolladinha minha, heim CM. Atualiza o software, pq esse daí tá obsoleto.

[Carlos Mathias]

Agora é troladinha, né?

Sei...

Ficou sem argumento e saiu pela porta do vexame.

[Bolovo]

Ô, coisa. Fico um tempão sem postar e tenho que aguentar isso. E a mensagem nem foi pra vc, foi pro nosso coleguinha culinário Prick.

[Carlos Mathias]

TROLEIÊ !
TROLEIÊ !

Parece máquina, é só apertar o botão azul que responde.
Quem está com o soft atrasado agora?

Three Contenders Remain For Japan F-X

Apr 29, 2011

Sometime this year, a Japanese technician will perform the final piece of work on the last F-2 fighter to leave the Nagoya works of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. With that, Japan’s 45 years of post-war fighter production will cease and the progressive loss of skills already under way in systems manufacturing will have spread to every stage of building combat aircraft.

This fact looms large for officials in charge of charting the path for the next fighter program. The sooner a new fighter goes into production, the sooner this highly specialized industry can be revitalized.

The defense ministry says three groups have responded to its April 13 request for proposals (RFP): BAE Systems with Sumitomo Corp., offering the Eurofighter Typhoon; Lockheed Martin with the F-35; and Boeing with the F/A-18E/F.

The ministry said last year it would also be interested in the Lockheed Martin F-22, Boeing F-15 and the Dassault Rafale. But the U.S. will not export the F-22, and the F-15 is out because Boeing believes Japan’s air force is leaning toward a completely new aircraft type. Dassault Rafale declined to comment.

The RFP was issued early this year because the ministry and Japan Air Self-Defense Force (Jasdf) hope to make a recommendation in time for the procurement to be included the fiscal 2012 budget. To ensure inclusion in 2012, the contenders have until the end of September to respond. A winner is to be selected and a recommendation made to the cabinet by the end of December, leaving three months for parliament to decide.

Japan’s defense guidelines say 40-50 F-X fighters will be ordered, with the first 12 to be delivered by March 31, 2017. The F/A-18E/F and Eurofighter Typhoon programs are more mature than the F-35’s, so it is easier for these two to meet the deadline. The F-35 program has had many delays, but Lockheed Martin executive vice president and F-35 general manager, Tom Burbage, told Aviation Week in March that they could deliver as soon as fiscal 2016.

Early delivery is an important factor also because the F-X is needed to replace the F-4s, all more than 30 years old. Shigeru Iwasaki, Jasdf chief of air staff, is coy about when the F-4s will go. It depends on the accumulated flight hours on the airframe, but it may happen within the next 10 years, he says. If so, Mitsubishi will have to quickly ramp up F-X production. Some industry executives say the tight deadline for first deliveries and the ministry’s concerns about cost mean the first batch of F-Xs might be fully imported.

Japan requires local manufacturing of military aircraft, along with domestic development of some parts and systems. But licensed production there, particularly for short production runs, has proven expensive. The country also tends to change the aircraft design, to the extent that the F-2 was really a new aircraft following the F-16 configuration. Quite apart from the expense, design changes take time. Some industry executives say Japan is unlikely to make any significant changes because these would escalate costs and upset deadlines.

Some relief for Japan’s fighter production base is coming from an unfortunate circumstance. The ministry believes that 18 F-2Bs that were submerged in the March 11 tsunami can be salvaged. Work began on April 17. The engines, electronics and at least some electro-mechanical systems presumably need to be replaced. The ministry does not yet know how much the repairs will cost.

In the F-X program, the Typhoon and F/A-18E/F will likely cost less than F-35s, but Lockheed Martin could argue that the F-35 could also satisfy Japan’s longer-term F-XX requirement to replace the air force’s older F-15s, so production costs would level out over time.

As the newest aircraft, the F-35 has the advantage of fifth-generation fighter technology. But it may be hard to persuade the ministry that there will be no more delays and cost overruns. The defense budget is constrained and future military spending is likely to decline, say industry executives. The reconstruction costs in the aftermath of the earthquake, tsunami and ensuing nuclear crisis are further straining the national budget.

Some industry executives are wondering if the FX decision will really be made this year. It will be a political challenge for the government to allocate money for new fighters when it is still grappling with national rebuilding costs. There is also the risk that public dissatisfaction over handling of the Fukushima nuclear crisis will force out Prime Minister Naoto Kan and, with him, Defense Minister Toshimi ­Kitazawa. A new defense minister could insist on reviewing as big a program as the F-X before letting it proceed.

Depois da palhaçada na Coréia do Sul, os franceses sabem que não existe disputa, Japão e Coreia do Sul são quintais dos armamentos dos EUA.
