E valerá a pena trocar VLSs por capacidade de sobrevivência?Mantenho que adoraria ver 3 a 4 KSS-III Batch II ao serviço da MdG. Só perguntaria de antemão se a integração de Teseo Mk2/E nos VLS seria possível.
Estou muito longe de ser um especialista em submarinos.
Dito isto, não conheço razões pelas quais a capacidade VLS anula ou é trocada por capacidade de sobrevivência.
A minha preferência pessoal prende-se com 3 fatores:
- Parceria/tech transfer com a RoK.
- Falta de capacidade de slots para construção de subs europeus nos anos vindouros.
- Flexibilidade operacional/capacidade de disuassão oferecida por submarinos com VLS.
The KF-21 Boramae — South Korea’s newest indigenous 4.5-generation fighter aircraft — uses several key American-origin components and technologies as part of its systems and subsystems, even though most avionics, radar, and mission systems are domestically developed.
🇺🇸 Major American Components in the KF-21
1. Engines – General Electric F414-GE-400K
The KF-21 is powered by two GE Aerospace F414-GE-400K turbofan engines, a U.S.-designed engine also used on the Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet.
These engines are being built under license in South Korea by Hanwha Aerospace, but the base design and technology are American.
2. On-Board Inert Gas Generation System (OBIGGS)
Supplied by Collins Aerospace (RTX/United States). This system fills fuel tanks with inert gas to reduce fire/explosion risk.
3. Life Support & Environmental Systems
Life Support System (LSS) and Environmental Control Unit (ECU) from Collins Aerospace — critical for cockpit pressurization, pilot survivability, climate control, and avionics cooling.
4. Canopy Assembly
The aircraft’s transparent canopy is provided by Textron (Textar) in the U.S., designed for ballistic resistance and optical clarity.
5. Data Acquisition & Flight Test Systems
Curtiss-Wright / Axon KAM-500 data acquisition system for flight testing and instrumentation.
6. Aerial Refueling Receptacle (ARR)
The refueling receptacle system (compatibility with boom refueling, e.g., KC-46) is supplied by PTI Technologies (U.S.).
7. Weapon Integration (Potential/Optional)
The airframe is designed to be compatible with U.S.-origin weapons like AIM-120 AMRAAM and AIM-9X Sidewinder missiles, although political and export-license issues have affected integration timelines.
8. Support & Miscellaneous U.S. Contributions
Engine start systems and more-electric power generators (variable speed constant frequency units) from U.S. suppliers.
🇰🇷 What’s Indigenous vs. Imported
While American systems are critical for propulsion, safety, and support subsystems, the bulk of avionics, radar (AESA), mission computers, flight control systems, and many sensors are developed by South Korean firms such as Hanwha Systems and LIG Nex1.

Que pilotos é que eram? Instrutores provenientes da 101 ou antiga 103? Pilotos que transitaram de outras esquadras (ex. F-16) para se tornarem formadores na esquadra ST? Ou pilotos novos?
E há quanto tempo é o "há algum tempo"? Dependendo disto, poderá ter-se sucedido que os pilotos (se forem novos) tenham transitado para outras esquadras onde exista falta deles.
Citar2-Passamos para de 1 plano que incluía 17 navies e os substitutos das fragatas seriam vários "porta drones " desarmados
Só discordo disto.
Essa foi a leitura enviezada de alguns aqui do fórum.
O PNM nunca quis ser uma fragata.
O anterior CEMAH nunca disse que não queria fragatas, mas sim que as fragatas nos moldes actuais iam deixar de existir. Se reparares, uma das principais características das novas fragatas (todas) é poderem operar com qualquer tipo de drone...
