Around 11:30, a Royal Air Force aircraft landed in Comodoro Rivadavia to join the intense search of the submarine ARA San Juan, which disappeared seven days ago. It is an Airbus 330 Voyager transport, license plate ZZ 333, and, has arrived with state-of-the-art underwater detection equipment. it was received by the head of the IX Brigade, commodore Marcelo García.

This aircraft has the capacity to transport 291 people and a gas tank for 11 tons. In addition to transportation, it serves for aerial refuelling.

the Aircraft came from the Falkland Islands, something that had never happened since the war, in 1982.

Mais possíveis cortes para os Britânicos, os Pumas que até foram modernizados à pouco tempo devem sair de serviço, outros potenciais vitimas podem ser os Tornados, os C-130, etc.

Se os britânicos escolherem a terceira opção quer dizer que vamos ter C-130J em segunda-mão no mercado.

Cumprimentos,

Acho que os Apache é muita areia para o nosso camião, mas os C-130J sim, não fosse o caso do governo estar a puxar pelo KC-390, sempre achei bom avião para nós.

A politica insiste no KC-390 !

Agora se querem converter os C-130H para combate a fogos, faria todo o sentido adquirir C-130J.


Wildcats e Pumas só se fosse para o UALE..

A new RAF radar facility that will track Russian military aircraft approaching the north of the UK will be operational soon, the MoD has said.

The £10m Remote Radar Head facility is being built at Saxa Vord on the island of Unst in Shetland.

It will provide key information on aircraft movements across the North Sea and feed the Quick Reaction Alert (QRA) operation.

The latest QRA launch last week saw RAF Typhoons intercept two Russian bombers.

The RAF monitored the Russian Blackjack jets as they passed through international airspace, before the Typhoons from RAF Lossiemouth escorted them out of the UK's area of interest.

Defence secretary warns of Russian plot
UK 'must prepare for Russia fight'
The Russian aircraft, which had not responded to air traffic controllers, did not enter UK sovereign airspace.

There have been 59 QRA launches in the past five years.

The MoD said the new radar base would improve RAF and Nato understanding of the airspace north of Britain and further out across the Norwegian Sea at a time of increased Russian military activity.

It will see Unst return to the role it performed during the 1960s and 70s, when the site was used as an early warning radar on Nato's northern flank.

The facility will be operated remotely by RAF personnel, with contractors only attending the site for maintenance.

RAF to scrap twin-seat Typhoons

Tim Ripley, London - Jane's Defence Weekly
29 January 2018

The UK Royal Air Force (RAF) is to scrap 16 UK Eurofighter Typhoons as part of a project to save GBP800 million (USD1.13 billion) on the running cost of the service's combat aircraft fleet.

The plans to dismantle the aircraft and harvest spare parts for use on the remainder of the Typhoon fleet were revealed to Jane’s on 29th January by RAF Air Command at High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire, in response to a Freedom of Information (FOI) Act request.

The project, known as Reduce to Produce (RTP), aims to generate GBP50 million worth of parts from each airframe “back into the supply chain”, according to the FOI data.

Se já estão mal agora, então imagino como ficarão as Forças Armadas Britânicas após o impacto do Brexit. Ainda acabam por subconcessionar tudo aos norte-americanos.

Boa chance para irmos às compras como tanto se tem falado por aqui, no entanto como estamos mais tesos que um carapau congelado, tudo como dantes no quartel-general em Abrantes.

Citar
It has emerged that a Lockheed Martin C-130J ‘Super’ Hercules, operated by the Royal Air Force, has been written off after a hard landing in Iraq whilst returning from a special forces mission as part of Operation Shader.

It is understood that the C-130J was returning to base after picking up British and American troops at a desert airstrip in Syria. The UK Ministry of Defence has declined to comment.

Project Tempest: Britain’s bold 6th generation fighter announced

Citar
The British Ministry of Defence today unveiled a new £2 billion project, dubbed Tempest, intended to lead to a 6th generation fighter to be ready in the 2030s. Following Brexit, Britain fears isolation from the next European fighter and Tempest is likely an attempt to keep Britain in the game. Hush-Kit spoke to RUSI defence analyst Justin Bronk to find out more.

“The Tempest mock-up and virtual concept art unveiled at Farnborough , whilst clearly very early stage ideas rather than anything approaching a prototype or tech demonstrator, do tell us a few things about British thinking in terms of a new combat air platform for the late 2030s.
