Flaggy Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 Stupisce un po’ che la RAF piazzi un ordine per rimpiazzare i suoi E-3D o Sentry AEW.MK1 che dir si voglia, che sono più recenti (fine anni ottanta) e meglio motorizzati dei più attempati E-3B e C di USAF e NATO, per i quali invece si fa collezione di upgrade per tirare a campare e di rendering, cancellazioni e posticipazioni per quanto concerne i sostituti. Prima o poi si dovrà spendere una barca di soldi per rimpiazzare anche quelli ma, visto che si parla di rimotorizzazioni, mi sa che il poi sarà molto poi...

Non so se il 617 abbia abbastanza aerei ( sembra nove finora ) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Force_HQ da effettuare due dispiegamenti quasi contemporanei .

zander Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 Il ministero della difesa ha l'intenzione di sviluppare aerei ipersonici. Per tale motivo, il MoD ha lanciato un programma di studio del valore di 10 milioni di sterline per studiare motori capaci di spingere simili aeroplani. Il MoD sostiene che sta monitorando quanto fanno i russi e che molte tecnologie già esistono. L'azienda britannica Reaction Engines svilupperà lo studio, insieme a Rolls Royce e BAE Systems. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/07/17/raf-develop-hypersonic-planes-could-top-speeds-3000mph-dodge/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote The UK Royal Air Force (RAF) is on track to restore its lapsed maritime patrol aircraft capability within the next nine months, according to Air Commodore Rich Barrow, senior responsible owner for the service’s Boeing P-8 and E-7 acquisitions.

The UK's first two P-8A Poseidon MRA1 crews have already completed training at the US Navy's (USN's) NAS Jacksonville site in Florida, while other members of its personnel have retained maritime patrol experience via Project Seedcorn placements with the USN and other nations over the past decade. ... flightglobal.com ...
