Yuri Gagarin Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 (edited) Marina militare, primo appontaggio di un F35 Usa sulla portaerei Cavour British test pilot Peter Wilson made history when he conducted the first ever shipborne rolling vertical landing (#SRVL) ma mi chiedo, a parte motivi logistici, c'è qualche ragione per cui viene preferito l'appontaggio verticale? quello corto mi sembra più sicuro, oltre che meno stressante per la macchina.

Flaggy Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 Ci sono pro e contro in entrambi i casi. Nell’atterraggio verticale il velivolo si affianca alla nave e va a impegnare solo la zona della piazzola di appontaggio (più l’ovvia distanza di sicurezza). Nell’appontaggio rullato il rateo di discesa è comunque elevato (e sollecita la struttura) e l’impegno del ponte di volo è molto più consistente: questo può sfavorire la rapida esecuzione di decolli e appontaggi (la poppa deve essere sgombra e senza velivoli pronti al decollo). Nelle grandi portaerei CATOBAR la capacità di esprimere un numero elevato di sortite con decolli e appontaggi in contemporanea è un caratteristica importante, mentre sulle STOVL questo non si può realizzare. Comunque vedrei una maggiore sollecitazione dell’impianto frenante - da valutare anche le differenze fra atterraggio (molto) corto e verticale sui pnumatici che sul B hanno dimostrato scarsa durata - e un teorico maggiore rischio in caso di guasto allo stesso. Ricordiamo che il B non ha il gancio (nemmeno di emergenza come l’A) e tanto meno ci sono cavi o reti di emergenza sulle portaerei STOVL, come ci sono su quelle CATOBAR. Tendenzialmente conviene l’appontaggio rullato solo in caso di elevato carico e comunque in questo caso la sollecitazione del motore e della struttura è sempre grande perchè il velivolo è più pesante.

TT-1 Pinto Posted May 1, 2021 Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 Nave Cavour è rientrata dagli Stati Uniti ... Quote La portaerei Cavour della Marina militare ha fatto rientro questa mattina nella stazione navale Mar Grande di Taranto dopo aver terminato negli Stati Uniti la Campagna Ready for Operations (RFO) con le «prove in mare» (sea trials) per l’impiego operativo dell’F-35B. Si tratta del velivolo da combattimento di quinta generazione del programma Joint Strike Fighter di prossima dotazione alla Marina Militare in sostituzione degli AV8B-plus. La nave è stata «salutata» in Mar Jonio dal cacciatorpediniere Andrea Doria, dalla nave anfibia San Giusto e dal sommergibile Prini. La nave ammiraglia della Squadra Navale, grazie alla campagna RFO, ha avviato con pieno successo le attività fondamentali nel percorso di qualificazione ad impiegare il nuovo sistema d’arma costituito da velivoli di quinta generazione, gli F-35 nella versione B, a decollo corto e appontaggio verticale. ... lagazzettadelmezzogiorno.it ... https://www.lagazzettadelmezzogiorno.it/news/taranto/1297439/f35-la-portaerei-cavour-rientrata-a-taranto-dopo-campagna-addestrativa-in-usa.html ...

Quote The Italian Navy aircraft carrier Cavour will receive its first F-35B this month after the vessel started certification work in the U.S. earlier this year to host the aircraft. The fighter jet is undergoing final checks at the Cameri air base in Italy, home to the country’s F-35 final assembly and checkout facility, which is due to turn out 90 F-35s for Italy, including 30 F-35Bs. “The test flights have been completed, so within a few days [the aircraft] will be available for the Navy to collect and it will [be] delivered directly to the Cavour,” said Rear Adm. Dino Torresi, the head of the Navy’s air operations. The Navy previously took delivery of two other F-35Bs, which were sent to the U.S. to join a training program for pilots and technical personnel. The new delivery makes it three out of a final order of 15 aircraft for the Navy. ... defensenews.com ... https://www.defensenews.com/global/europe/2021/07/01/italian-navy-aircraft-carrier-to-get-first-f-35b-within-a-few-days/ ...

Un articolo che si sofferma più in dettaglio sulle (diverse) modifiche apportate recentemente al Cavour, in particolare per operare con l'F-35. https://www.navalnews.com/naval-news/2021/11/italys-cavour-aircraft-carrier-successfully-completed-exercise-with-navy-and-air-force-f-35b/ Cita Among the activities related to the accommodation of the F-35B, the most relevant and visible were the application of a deck coating suited to withstand the extreme temperatures emanated by the F-35B’s engines. All areas of the flight deck involved in F-35B activities (around 4,200 square meters) have been coated with a thermal metal spray capable of resisting temperatures of up to 1,500° C. The flight deck has been reinforced in correspondence of landing spot 2, 3, 4 and 5 with metal structures added underneath each spot in order to withstand the thermodynamic payloads associated with the aircraft engine exhausts. The thermodynamic stress was evaluated based on eight consecutive landings on the same spot at a distance of 120 seconds from each other. More resistance flight deck and landing lights were introduced while a second spot (spot 4) was equipped with a line-up director sight (LUDS) landing aid system and cleared for night operations in addition to an already existing one. Moreover, to mitigate the thermo-dynamic impact, the life rafts located in the path of the F-35B’s downwash and in the vicinity of the landing spots have been repositioned and thermal deflectors were installed to protect the JP5 refueling stations, the fire-fighting stations, and intakes of some of the air ventilation and conditioning system together with new catwalks on the left side of the flight deck. Other equipment and antennas were repositioned around the stern and bow flight deck parking. Acoustic insulating materials were added to compartments underneath the flight deck and on the island. In addition to the landing approach aid systems already on board and including Leonardo SPN-720 shipborne precision approach radar, a new joint precision approach and landing system (JPALS), and the new AN/SPN-41B version of the instrument carrier landing system (ICLS), were installed alongside the SINS (Shipboard aircraft INertial alignment System). As first international sale, the JPALS is a GPS-based landing system that integrates with shipboard air traffic control and landing system architectures to guide fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters with pinpoint approach and landings on carriers and amphibious assault ships in all weather and surface conditions. It also features anti-jam protection for operating in electronic warfare environments. The whole package was qualified by the US NAVAIR PMA-213 during the US ‘Ready for Operation’ campaign. The embarkation of specific equipment for the F-35B requested modifications to the hangar, spaces transformation on the island and flight deck underneath compartments, magazines and maintenance facilities. The Cavour was equipped with a Special Access Program Facility (SAPF) area for aircraft mission planning, briefing, debriefing, protected by high security systems, as well as the automated logistic information system (ALIS), which integrates a broad range of F-35B data to enhance the jet operational availability. In order to support the higher data transfer required by this system, one of the ship’s SATCOM systems was enhanced. The platform was also prepared to embark a back-up containerized SAPF. This will be used not only to support allied nations on-board aircraft detachments but it will be also used for potential ashore deployment (both for operational and training purposes). Together with enhancements to the three magazines for mixed weapons accommodation and the movement path optimization to reach the dedicated elevators, an enlarged weapon staging area has been created in front and back of the island. Among other modifications, the two-tonne overhead crane in the hangar’s jet engine workshop has been replaced by a four-tonne safe working load crane suited to handling the heavier F-35B engines and lift-fans, the hangar having received new wall supports for aircraft bomb racks and missile launchers alongside compartment enhancement for flight personnel equipment. The aircraft carrier electrical distribution system was also modified based on the F-35B needs with the introduction of new transformers and converters while the platform gensets were overhauled for performance recovery. The technical support and refueling capabilities have been incremented in terms of JP-5, while introducing oxygen, nitrogen and litio batteries storage/recharge station compartments. The aviation fuel storage capacity has increased by 320 tonnes to meet the F-35Bs higher fuel consumption, and the JP5 refueling points located in the catwalks and hangar bay have been replaced by new lighter and more manageable ones. The Cavour’s Integrated System for Automation and Platform Supervision (SIASP) received an enhanced software/hardware architecture for additional control/monitoring functions related to the new embarked systems, in addition to improvements to the platform data distribution network, among other systems. These modifications and equipment has increased the overall platform displacement by circa 300 tonnes, which required stability trails and checks before returning into service.

Flaggy Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 (edited) Le navi subiscono manutenzioni periodiche e passano più tempo in porto che in mare. Il Fatto Quotidiano è l'ultima fonte a cui rivolgersi per sapere cosa devono fare sulla nave. L'ultimo intervento pesante sulla Cavour si è concluso ormai 3 anni fa e la nave ha in programma una lunga crociera nel Pacifico entro pochi mesi, il che significa da un lato che deve essere perfetta, ma anche che non starà ferma a lungo a fare lavori pesanti. La notizia riportata dalla stampa generalista in effetti non è tanto la manutenzione in se (poi da vedere che faranno oltre a pulire la carena se la mettono in secca), ma il passaggio da Taranto (indisponibilità?) a Palermo, che ha creato aspettative o malumori tra chi di manutenzione ci vive.
