PS: Se este projeto com a Índia e a África do Sul for adiante... Um míssil ramjet com 120km de alcance, data-link e um seeker combinando IIR e radar ativo... Muito bom !!! Este seeker pode dar trabalho até para ameaças stealth ao fundir os dados de rastreio... é o mesmo esquema de buscador usado naquele míssil que vai substituir o Hellfire... Qual é o nome dele mesmo? Não lembro, mas sei que usa um seeker que combina IIR, radar ativo e ainda mais o laser semi-ativo...

U.S.-UK clash looms over huge jet fighter deal with Saudis

LONDON — Britain fears the United States could derail an estimated $10 billion aircraft deal with Saudi Arabia.


Industry sources said the United States was preparing to investigate BAE Systems, which won a project to supply 72 Eurofighters to the Royal Saudi Air Force. The sources said the Bush administration wants to determine whether BAE violated U.S. anti-corruption laws in establishing an alleged $100 million slush fund for Saudi princes responsible for military procurement.
"There are still concerns over various other investigations," British parliamentarian David Borrow said. "And that part of the reason for the U.S. wanting to carry out its own investigation is to put the Saudis off doing a deal with the UK."

BAE says in talks with M'bishi Heavy on Typhoon deal

TOKYO, May 31 (Reuters) - BAE Systems Plc (BA.L: Quote, Profile , Research) is in talks with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. (MHI) (7011.T: Quote, NEWS , Research) about possibly licensing it to manufacture the Eurofighter Typhoon, an executive of Europe's top military contractor said on Thursday.

"At the moment our main discussion is with MHI, and they have demonstrably the most significant fighter aircraft capability of the Japanese industry team," Nigel Whitehead, group managing director at BAE, told Reuters in an interview.

"But the relationship will not necessarily be limited to MHI."

Mitsubishi Heavy already makes F-15J fighters under a license agreement with Boeing Co. (BA.N: Quote, Profile , Research), Patriot missiles with Raytheon Co. (RTN.N: Quote, Profile , Research) and vertical launching systems with Lockheed Martin Corp. (LMT.N: Quote, Profile , Research), but it has no big projects with BAE.

Japan has been a tough market for non-U.S. contractors such as BAE because U.S. rivals such as Boeing Co. (BA.N: Quote, Profile , Research) and Lockheed Martin Corp. (LMT.N: Quote, Profile , Research) have a strong grip on the market.

But Japan has said it would consider buying the Eurofighter Typhoon, which is built by a consortium headed by BAE, as it plans to start replacing its fleet of 60 F-4 fighters as well as training aircraft in the next couple of years.

Any BAE deal with MHI would be contingent on the government choosing the Eurofighter.

Pontos principais elencados pelo proprio Jon Lake:



- "Typhoon enjoys better performance and superior supersonic agility, while the Rafale has significantly better payload/range capability, and a better ‘ride’ at low level."


- "Every multi-role aircraft inevitably represents a compromise between conflicting requirements, and both Rafale and Typhoon reflect the slightly different needs of their original customers.

Rafale is arguably the best possible solution to French requirements (as it was always designed to be) and has better range, endurance, and a better low level ride than its European rival. Though it has not won any export orders so far, Rafale may still find favour with customers who require their multi-role tactical fighter to be optimised for long range air-to-ground and strike missions. While similarly designed as a swing role tactical fighter, Typhoon, by contrast, is optimised more towards air-to-air requirements, and offers a small but significant performance advantage, better supersonic agility, and a superior man machine interface."


A respeito da reacao dos apaixonados e nacionalistas franceses:


There's plenty of praise and criticism for both aircraft in the article. I make it clear that both aircraft are good in different ways, and are good at different things. Unfortunately, anything short of a glowing testimonial for Rafale is viewed by some of the more fanatical Rafale admirers as being hostile, biased and unfair, and they seize on the negative comments and ignore the positive to support their contentions of 'Rafale-bashing' or 'French-bashing'. Any suggestion that Typhoon enjoys any advantage over Rafale in any area is taken as being empty nationalistic boasting, and as evidence of bias and partiality.
