J-15 Fighter Jet Tests Expected on Chinese Aircraft Carrier Shi Lang





China's first aircraft carrier Shi Lang, Currently on its maiden voyage, is widely expected to have its shipborne fighter jets conduct simulated landing trials Saturday, after a navigation ban and radio control notice was put in place.

The landing trials will go ahead if weather conditions allow, but fighters will take off as soon as they approach the ship instead of actually landing, a source close to the trial told the Global Times Friday.

The source also revealed that the jets to be used in the tests are J-15s, a domestically made heavy fighter, dubbed the People's Liberation Army navy's "Flying Shark."

The trials are aimed mainly at testing the radar system and optical landing system of the aircraft carrier, which left its shipyard in northeastern Dalian and began its first five-day journey on Wednesday, the source said

BAE Systems Seeks Feedback on MIG-29N Replacement Programme   
  KUALA LUMPUR --- BAE Systems, which is eyeing Malaysia's MiG-29N replacement programme, is currently seeking responses and gathering information from local companies as well as government agencies on the requirements of the programme and the industry.

Its director, Typhoon Malaysia, Military Air & Information, Ian Malin, said for the past months, the UK-based defence and aerospace company has been engaging with government agencies like Malaysian Investment Development Authority and Malaysia Industry-Government Group for High Technology as well as 20 local companies in various sectors.

"We have been talking with the industry players as well as government agencies to get their feedback and to know specifically what Malaysia wants. We will continue to do so for the next couple of months," he told a media briefing here today.

Among industry options the company could offer included research and development, training, manufacturing, systems integration as well as in maintenance, repair and overhaul, Malin said.

In March, BAE Systems submitted a rough order of magnitude prices of the multi-role combat aircraft Eurofighter Typhoon to replace the 18 MiG-2N aircraft.

BAE Systems will likely be up against three other competitors, including Boeing, French's Rafale and Sweden's Gripen, for the replacement programme. Eurofighter Typhoon is manufactured by BAE Systems and three European partner nations -- Germany, Italy and Spain.

On other note, the company has moved its regional head office to Kuala Lumpur from Singapore, which will help strengthen relationships with existing customers and industrial partners in the region, as well as developing new business opportunities in emerging markets such as Vietnam.

The move underpinned BAE Systems' long-term commitment to Malaysia, in which it has had a presence for over 20 years.

It would allow the company to focus on growing Asian markets, where many governments have an interest in achieving industrial growth through collaborations, technology transfer and inward investment.

BAE Systems, which is a familiar face at the bi-annual Langkawi International Maritime & Aerospace Exhibition (LIMA), will participate in this year's LIMA from Dec 6-10, 2011.

Britain orders 14 Boeing Chinooks in £1bn deal

Britain announced Monday it has ordered 14 new Chinook helicopters from US aerospace and defence giant Boeing at a cost of £1.0 billion ($1.65 billion, 1.1 billion euros).
Considered as the Royal Air Force's workhorse, the transport choppers have served in theatres such as the Falklands War, Northern Ireland, Iraq and Afghanistan.
The versatile heavy lift aircraft can transport up to 40 men or 10 tonnes of cargo.
Britain already has the largest Chinook fleet in Europe and the order will take it to 60 aircraft. All of the 14 new helicopters should be fully operational by 2017.
The Labour government of former prime minister Gordon Brown was dogged by criticism that British forces in Afghanistan did not have sufficient equipment, particularly troop-carrying helicopters that would avoid soldiers having to travel by bomb-laden roads.
Current Prime Minister David Cameron's Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition claims it was left a £38 billion "black hole" of unfunded defence spending commitments when it took office.
The government has cut the defence budget by eight percent in a bid to curb Britain's huge deficit.
"We have brought reality to the defence budget and can start signing contracts that will deliver real equipment," Defence Secretary Liam Fox said.
"The previous government promised more Chinooks, but never ordered them and never had the money for them. It was just an aspiration.
"These additional helicopters will significantly enhance our existing heavy lift helicopter capability.
"This fleet will support our frontline troops in current and future operations for decades to come."
The new Mark 6 Chinooks will feature a digital flight control system making them easier to operate in tough conditions, such as the hot and dusty environments encountered in Afghanistan where Britain has 9,500 troops stationed.
The RAF should receive the first aircraft for initial trials and testing in 2013 and it should enter service the following year.
Delivery of all 14 helicopters should be complete before 2016. Three should be ready for operational deployment in early 2015 and all 14 should be fully operational by early 2017.
The Boeing deal includes development, manufacture and the first five years of support to the helicopters

تركيا تجرى مباحثات مع كوريا والسويد لتصنيع مقاتله جديده



Turkey holding rival talks on aircraft with Koreans, Swedes

Besides an ongoing plan to develop a fighter jet program with the US or Europe, Turkey is seeking to broaden its fleet with a second option. South Korea’s KAI and Sweden’s Saab are the two possible partners, according to a Turkish procurement official. Turkey is supposed to take part in the design of the possible project

A Swedish Air Force JAS-39 Gripen fighter aircraft arrives at the Graf Ignatievo Air Base in Bulgaria in this file photo. Turkey is considering to design, develop and produce a new fighter plane with Sweden’s Saab.
Turkey recently had held separate talks with aeronautical officials from South Korea and Sweden for possible cooperation in the design, development and production of a new fighter aircraft in the next decade, a senior procurement official said at the weekend.
“The companies are South Korea’s Korea Aerospace Industries [KAI] and Sweden’s Saab,” the official said.
KAI is the manufacturer of several military and civilian aircraft and satellites and is planning to produce the fighter aircraft KF-X. Saab is the maker of the multi-role fighter JAS 39 Gripen.
Turkey, whose present fighter fleet is made up of U.S.-made aircraft, also plans to buy the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter Lightning II planes, a next-generation, multinational program also led by the United States.
But Turkish officials privately say they want another future jet fighter to be developed with a country or countries other than the United States, in an effort to reduce the country’s dependence on Washington.
Most of Turkey’s present fleet of F-16 fighters, being modernized by U.S. firm Lockheed Martin, and the planned future F-35s are open to U.S. influence. Only its older F-4 aircraft, modernized by Israel, and its oldest F-16s, being modernized by Turkey itself, technologically are free from this influence, the officials said. But these older aircraft are expected to be decommissioned around 2020.
“Turkey wants part of its fighter aircraft fleet to remain outside the technological and other influence of the United States. It believes this scheme would better fit its national interests,” said one Turkish defense analyst.
So as part of efforts to select a new fighter for the Turkish Air Force, Turkish Aerospace Industries, or TAI, has been tasked with determining the specifications of the new fighter. It has until the end of next year to finish the process.
Turkey in the past has assembled and jointly manufactured some military aircraft, but this is the first time the country’s developing defense industry fully will be involved in the design of a complex weapons system, such as a jet fighter.
The country last year held an initial round of talks with South Korea’s KAI on the matter. But the South Koreans then offered only a 20 percent share of the project to Turkey, with another 20 percent going to Indonesia, opting for 60 percent of the program for themselves. Turkey wants an equal share in the development of a new plane and was quick to reject the offer.
“Now the South Koreans are coming much closer to the idea of equal ownership, and this is positive,” said the Turkish procurement official. “But there are still many more things to be discussed with them.”


In the meantime, Turkey continues to be interested in rival programs, and the recent talks with Saab officials reflect this situation, the procurement official said. “Sweden also is a potential partner for us.”
In addition to KAI and Saab, a consortium of European companies, also continues efforts to include Turkey in its program for the Eurofighter Typhoon project. This consortium is Eurofighter, whose members include Italian, German, British and Spanish firms.
Italy’s deputy defense minister said in May that the pan-European Eurofighter Typhoon fighter aircraft was the only viable alternative to U.S. planes in this category, urging Turkey to join the ambitious European-led defense program.
“The Eurofighter is the only alternative to U.S. aircraft, and provides a great relief to world countries,” Guido Crosetto said in Istanbul on the sidelines of the International Defense Industry Fair 2011.

تركيا تجرى مباحثات مع شركة ساب السويديه
المصنعه للمقاتله JAS 39 Gripen
File:Etps jas39b gripen arp.jpg


 ومحادثات مع مؤسسة الصناعات الجويه الكوريه
التى تقوم بتصنيع طائرات التدريب
وتنوى تصنيع مقاتله جديده KF-X



على الرغم من أن تركيا ستحصل على المقاتله F-35 Joint Strike Fighter Lightning II
وسيكون العدد حوالى 120 مقاتله تقريبآ
File:CF-1 flight test.jpg


إلا إنها تريد أن تقتنى مقاتله جديده تكون مشاركه فى تصنيعها
لكى تحقق الأكتفاء التكنولوجى وتخرج من العبأه الأمريكيه
التى هى تحت رحمتها حاليآ حيث أن عصب سلاح الجو التركى
مقاتلات F-16



وعلى الرغم من تجميعها بتركيا إلا إنها تحتاج لشركة لوكهيد مارتن
فى الإلكترونيات وأنظمة الكمبيوتر المهمه


ومقاتلات F-4 التى تم تطويرها فى إسرائيل






ومن المقرر خروج بعض مقاتلات الأف16 القديمه وكامل إسطول الفانتوم بحلول 2020
لذلك تركيا تريد توفير مصدر أخر لسلاح الجو غير أمريكى
وكانت تركيا تفاوضت مع كوريا من قبل على مشروع المشاركه
إلا غن الكوريين عرضو نسبة 20% لتركيا و 20% لإندونيسيا
مع إحتفاظ كوريا بنسبة 60%
إلا إن الأتراك رفضوا ذلك وطلبو المشاركه الكامله بنسبة 50% فى المشروع
ويبدو أن هناك تفاهم كورى حاليأ للمطالب التركيه


من ناحيه أخر تسعى تركيا لدخول الكونسورتيم الاوربى الذى يقوم بإنتاج المقاتله
Eurofighter
File:Typhoon.f2.zj922.ff2006.arp.jpg


والتى تعتبر أفضل بديل حالى للمقاتلات الأمريكيه
ولن تخضع تركيا للشروط الصعبه التى تواجهها مع أمريكا


ومن المعروف أن تركيا تمتلك
246 F-16 Block 50+ CCIP

هذا موضوع كنت كتبته من قبل عن جدوى مشروع هذه الطائره




http://www.defencetalk.com/indonesia...-option-35584/






الجميع لديه بعض المعلومات عن مشروع هذه المقاتله الكوريه التى تعد من الجيل +4


فى هذا المقال خبر قرب توقيع مذكرة تفاهم بين كوريا وإندونيسيا للمشاركه فى هذا المشروع
ويتحدث المقال عن إمكانية نجاح هذا المشروع وما هو العائد الذى سيعود على كل من اندونيسيا وكوريا


بالنسبه لإندونيسا
فأعضاء البرلمان مقتنعون إن هذا المشروع سينشط الصناعات الدفاعيه الإندونيسيه
والتى ستشارك بمبلغ 2 مليار دولار
وسيتم تصنيع خمسة نماذج خلال الثمانى سنوات القادمه


ومن المتوقع أن يتم تصنيع 200 مقاتله للبلدين
وهذا جيد بالنسبه لإندونيسيا التى تعتبر أكبر بلد مسلم فى العالم
وأيضآ هذا يدحض القول القائل بأن الدول الكبر وحدها هى التى تستطيع فقط الدخول فى مثل هذه المشاريع


ولكن هناك أسئله يجب أن تطرح قبل الإنغماس فى وجهات النظر المتفائله
منها
ما جدوى هذا المشروع لإندونيسيا
فهذا المشروع المثير للجدل بدء فى عام 2001
بتكلفه 13مليار دولار لإنتاج 120 مقاتله
ومن المعروف أن كوريا تفتقر إلى القدرات الفنيه والماليه اللازمه لتصنيع هذه المقاتله كامله
فهى تستطيع إنتاج نسبة 63% من هذه الطائره
وهى تقوم بتصنيع طائرة التدريب t50 والتى لم تستطيع بيعها إلا إلى إندونيسيا هذا العام
مع وجود أخبار عن رغبة الإمارات وإسرائيل ودول أخرى
وتقوم أيضآ بتصنيع بعض أجزاء الأف16 والأف15


أيضآ هناك الأكتفاء الذاتى من التكنولوجيا
فانظمه خاصه للمقاتله مثل الأفيونكس والمحرك ستأتى من بلدان أخرى
وهذا سيمثل ضغوط سياسيه على إندونيسيا
فكوريا تصنع طائرة التدريب بالإشتراك مع لوكهيدمارتن
وفى حالة صناعة المقاتله
من المقترح أن يتم تركيب رادار aesa إسرائيلى الصنع يجمع فى كوريا الجنوبيه
أيضآ ستحتاج كوريا إلى لوكهيد وبوينج وإيداس وساب فى توريد معدات أخرى
مما يمثل تعقيدات كثيره للمشروع


أيضآ هناك مشكلة التطوير وزيادة التكلفه
فما هى خطط تطوير هذه المقاتله التى تعتمد على عدة مصادر
وما هى إمكانية زيادة التكلفه على غرار الأف35
واليورفايتر
فهل لدى إندونيسيا المرونه لتحمل كل ذلك


أيضآ غير معروف ما هى النسبه التى ستساهم فيها الصناعات الإندونيسيه
فى تصنيع هذه المقاتله ونقل التكنولوجيا وتشغيل أيدى عامله كل هذا غير معروف


وهل ستتمكن المقاتله من المنافسه فى السوق العالميه خاصة مع المقاتلات الروسيه والصينيه
وخاصة إنها ستنتج بعد 2020
حينها سيكون هناك دول مجاوره لكوريا الجنوبيه تمتلك مقاتلات الجيل الخامس
على غرار اليابان والصين والهند وروسيا
فهل سيكون الأفضل لكوريا شراء مقاتله جيل خامس أما صناعة مقاتله وطنيه من الجيل الرابع ونصف
هذا الأمر ليس مهم لإندونيسيا لأنه لا يوجد أحد من جيرانها يسعا لإمتلاك مقاتلات جيل خامس























كان هناك أخبار عن إحتمال مشاركة تركيا فى هذا المشروع
وفى الماضى كنت أتمنا مشاركة دول عربيه فى هذا المشروع مع كوريا مع نقل التكنولوجيا

لكن بعد ما تم عرضه فى هذا المقال
ما هى الجدوى من هذا المشروع ؟
هل سيكون ذى فائده للدول المتوسطة الحال كإندونيسيا ودولنا العربيه
أما سيكون مغامره فاشله

أما إن هناك إحتمالات جيده لنجاح المشروع
والمعلومات بالأعلى يروج لها الغربيين لإجهاض مثل هذه المشاريع ويظلون مسيطرون على السوق العالميه
