Ótimas fotos Nestor!

Que beleza! Que muitos Mirages sejam destruídos pelo todo-poderoso-typhoon!

Eurofighter Typhoon set to soar at Le Bourget 2005


(Source: Eurofighter GmbH; dated June 10, web-posted June 13, 2005)


PARIS/HALLBERGMOOS, Germany --- The Eurofighter Typhoon presence at the Paris Le Bourget Air Show 2005 is bigger and better than ever before, with this world-class next generation combat aircraft prominent both in the air and on the ground.

A Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft will feature at the Show with consortium partner Alenia, in combination with the skilled airmanship of Italian Air Force pilots, providing the Show-stopping air display. An Italian Air Force series production aircraft will also be situated on the static display area for viewing throughout the Show.

The Eurofighter pavilion houses a presentation area that demonstrates the aircraft’s capability and pivotal role in a network-centric battle environment. This theme will be further emphasised with a new and exciting audio/visual presentation scheduled to run concurrently throughout the week for welcome visitors. A full scale replica with a comprehensive weapon display, and a cockpit simulator, will demonstrate the weapon system’s outstanding capabilities.

Eurofighter partner EADS will present a full scale replica of the aircraft supported by an interactive display.

Following the successful completion of Tranche 2 negotiations at the end of last year the four-nation Eurofighter programme is now entering the most exciting and dynamic period of its life so far.

All 148 Tranche 1 aircraft are in final or advanced stages of production, which will ensure a sustained delivery rate to the customer throughout 2005. In April, the deployment of IS002 from Alenia’s final assembly facilities in Torino to 4° Stormo “Amadeo d’Aosta” at Grosseto, Italy, meant that all four partner air forces now operate series production single-seaters with Batch 2 standard.

These aircraft have PSP2 Capability (Production System Package) with Initial Defensive Aids Subsystem (DASS), Multifunctional Information and Distribution System (MIDS), Initial Direct Voice Input (DVI) and Sensor Fusion.

Over the past month, the flight testing of an upgraded standard of the Avionics product has been completed, providing operational evaluations of the updates to the Avionics – in particular RADAR, DASS and Sensor Fusion – for Batch 2 aircraft. A total number of eight Eurofighter Typhoon flights (10 hours) supported the QU2 PSQS (Preliminary System Qualification Statement) (plus nine Tornado flights), and thirteen Typhoon flights (sixteen hours) supported the Customer OTC (Official Test Centre) Mission Assessment (plus nine Tornado and four Hawk flights).

The Weapon System was evaluated thoroughly with seven 2v2 (i.e. two Eurofighter Typhoons against two ‘enemies’) Sensor Fusion flights, one 2v4 (against four enemies) Sensor Fusion flight and five dedicated DASS flights designed to fully test the avionics. The overall performance was encouraging considering the fairly aggressive operational testing conducted during the Mission Assessment, with the feedback from the operational pilots confirming their favourable impressions of the product.

In early 2005, Eurofighter Typhoon made its first transatlantic deployment. Under the ‘Exercise High Rider’ nickname, the Air Warfare Centre (AWC) conducts routine trials work on the United States western ranges, taking advantage of significant overland airspace, good weather and instrumented range infrastructure to maximise operational test and evaluation output from these facilities.

Exercise High Rider 10 took place at the United States Naval Air Weapons Range China Lake in California. Taking part in the deployment were the Harrier GR7 and Tornado GR4 aircraft of the AWC's Fast Jet and Weapons Operational Evaluation Unit (FJWOEU) based at RAF Coningsby and a Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft from the Typhoon combined test team.

The aircraft was deployed from BAE Systems Warton, crewed by a BAE Systems test pilot and a Typhoon Operational Evaluation Unit 17(R) Squadron pilot. BT005, a twin-seat series production aircraft, made the transatlantic crossing with the help of RAF VC10 and Tristar refuelling assets, before conducting an unaccompanied transit across the USA from Bangor Maine to China Lake, stopping to refuel at Little Rock Arkansas and Cannon Air Force Base, New Mexico. The Eurofighter Typhoon began flying again immediately after its arrival undertaking trials work to evaluate the aircraft's weapon system in an operational environment.

Exercise High Rider 10 recovered to the UK at the end of the deployment.

Typhoon Completes Successful Firing of ASRAAM


(Source: UK Ministry of Defence; issued June 15, 2005)


The RAF has recently celebrated a milestone in the development of its new Typhoon aircraft with news of the successful firing of an Advanced Short-Range Air-to-Air Missile (ASRAAM).

The trials, which took place during May, saw ASRAAM launched against targets at the Aberporth range on the Welsh coast. These were the first in-service missiles launched by Typhoon, with each successfully launched and guided to the target. Data from the tests have been analysed, confirming a successful trial where all the RAF's objectives were met.

Air Chief Marshall Sir Brian Burridge said: "This is a highly significant milestone in the development of this outstanding new aircraft. Typhoon will be at the heart of the RAF's future fighting capability. Weapons such as the ASRAAM will ensure that Typhoon is a potent force for the future."

ASRAAM is a next generation, short range, air-to-air missile which offers a great increase in performance over current systems, and provides combat superiority against all present and projected threats.

Mais um Typho inglês,armado com 18 mísseis anti-tank Brimstone:



Isso demonstra o estrago que um único Typhoon pode fazer contra uma coluna de blindados,18 tanques podem ser aniquilados pelo Typhoon,3 Typhos arrasam uma divisão inteira..........................um filé mignom como as divisões blindadas do EB que não possuem defesa anti-aérea nenhuma................depois é só contar os corpos........

Segundo o site da MBDA o míssil Brimstone está habilitado para ser operado pelo F-5,bastando a devida integração com os sistemas do caça.

Intaum com uns 10 EF-2000 da pra destrui toda a forca blindada do EB

[fredom]

qual sera o valor desse missil??? seria outra boa opcao para a FAB e como a MBDA diz que ele pode ser lancado do F-5 poderia vir a ser dotado nos F-5BR (mas e' praticamente impossivel, vide a enrolacao pra desidir qual BVR ele vai usar)

[Einsamkeit]

Putz, fraca a nossa defasagem, so mesmo com Su-35 ou Rafale pra deter uma coisa dessas, Mais eles nao vao querer tirar a diversao das tripulaçoes de Apache.

Esse míssil seria uma boa opção para a FAB com certeza!

Pelo seu tamanho e peso (50 kg) poderia ser levado até pelo ALX...

Se trata do míssil Anti-Tank do século 21,possui um alcance muito bom de 32 km,velocidade supersônico,capacidade all weather lançar e esquecer,ogiva com capacidade de penetração em blindagem reativa.............nenhum blindado sai impune

Imagem de um pobre T-72 servindo de cobaia: (Nesse teste o míssil foi lançado dentro do seu alcance máximo de 32km,acertando em cheio o tanque).





Agora eu acho que a questão não é preço..........a FAB poderia manter em estoque algumas dezenas dessas belezinhas,mas sim se seriam liberados para venda para nós ...............,míssil derivado do Hellfire,produzido em parceria com os americanos..............................................sabem como é

Esse é o tipo de arma que eu acho que nunca vamos conseguir comprar,e a FAB deveria buscar o desenvolvimento local com empresas nacionais

[Einsamkeit]

daqui a pouco veremos tanques armados com CIWS, hauahuah toda a ameaça é area, um tanque com uma torre baseada no bofors 40mm, mais o Umkhonto sul africano nao sairia tao caro nao? Logicamente montado num 4x4 ou 6X6, Acho que lagarta o Eb nunca pegaria pelo custo de manutençao.

[Alitson]

Pensem no ALX com a torre FLIR e armado com os Brimstone atacando tanques!!!!!!!!!!!! Sendo este quase imune a misseis IR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seria um IL-2 do século XXI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Marechal-do-ar]

Ele não é imune a IR, inclusive muitos turbo-hélices ja foram derrubados por misseis IR, e para piorar é lento demais, carrega poucas armas e tem pouco alcance, é um bom avião de treinamento, para caçar tanques prefiro o AMX ou até F-5.

[Lauro Melo]

O FLIR do ALX pode apontar bombas guiadas a Laser. Pelo menos esta é ainformação que tenho.
Mas este míssil Brimstone é guiado por IR ou Laser ?

Navigation
inertial guidance + seeker determination
to target acquisition, then seeker control

Terminal guidance
mmW

Terminal accuracy
commensurate with armoured target.
