Citation :
« J'aime les USA, et je combats pour elle», c'est ainsi que Lamia Lahlou commente son adhésion à l'armée américaine, et sa participation à la guerre contre l'iraq- depuis déjà 8 mois-. Née au Maroc en 1986, Lamia Lahlou rejoint l'armée américaine 3 ans après les attentats du 11 septembre 2001.

Tempérée par sa propre volonté, «la marocaine», ne mâche pas ses mots pour affirmer que ce pas emboité s'inscrit dans le cadre d'un «vrai Jihad». Rapporte une idéo diffusée largement sur Internet (Voir ci-aprés).

Choquée par la mort de sa meilleure amie, Lamia croit dur comme fer que l'adhésion à l'armée américaine est le seul et unique moyen susceptible de calmer le feu de sa vengeance.

A noter que les USA continuent à «renforcer » son armée via le recrutement des marocains, à l'heure où ALQIADIA ciblent d'autres recrues du Maroc vers la Hollande et la Belgique, tout en passant par la Syrie, l'Espagne et l'Iraq.

DOD Weapons Tester Blasts Army Radio Ahead of Production Decision
Jen Judson, Defense News 5:54 p.m. EDT July 21, 2016



WASHINGTON — The Pentagon’s chief weapons tester has issued a scathing report on the Mid-Tier Networking Vehicular Radio (MNVR), just as the US Army prepares to make a production decision for the system.

“MNVR did not meet commanders’ operational needs for a mid-tier network solution,” Michael Gilmore wrote in a July 5 memo, obtained by Defense News, to the Defense Department and Army acquisition chiefs.

Gilmore based his findings on an assessment conducted by the Brigade Modernization Command during the Army’s Network Integration Evaluation 16.2 at Fort Bliss, Texas, in May. Observations from the previous NIE, in 2015, also were considered.

“During the final focus group, all 39 of the surveyed battalion and company commanders and senior staff recommended that the Army not field MNVR,” he said in the memo. “MNVR provided no value added in mitigating the significant impacts to communications and mission execution experienced in a satellite communications (SATCOM)-denied environment.”

Whether this spells trouble for a production decision for the MNVR radio remains to be seen. According to a service source familiar with the issue, the Brigade Modernization Command report and feedback collected from commanders using the radio during the NIE differ dramatically.

The source said Gilmore’s memo is based almost entirely on the BMC report, which asked commanders if they would use the MNVR radio right now. When asked that way, most commanders responded in the negative because all of those polled believed the radio's current configuration was not optimal.

However, when the same commanders were asked by Army leaders attending the NIE this spring, including Army Vice Chief of Staff Gen. Dan Allyn, if they would use the capability provided by the radio if fielded, about 90 percent said yes.

Last month the Army determined it has a need for the mid-tier network capability and said it was preparing to make a low-rate initial production decision for the radio that goes along with the network later this summer.

US Army seeks next-generation radar

Geoff Fein, Washington, DC - IHS Jane's International Defence Review
25 July 2016



Key Points
The US Army is exploring radars that can operate in contested and congested electronic environments under its Next Generation Radar effort
Raytheon and Baylor University have been awarded grants to demonstrate the relevant technologies for the programme
The US Army Research Laboratory (ARL) is pursuing an effort to develop radars that are more agile and scalable and capable of multi-frequency operation.

The goal of the two-year Next Generation Radar (NGR) project is to prove that a radar can switch to an alternate band to avoid jamming by an adversary or interfering with other electronic systems and to build in the capability for electronic tuning on the move.

Deux officiers féminins en course pour intégrer les Bérets verts de l’US ArmyPosté dans Amériques, Forces spéciales par Laurent Lagneau Le 26-07-2016



En décembre 2015, le chef du Pentagone, Ashton Carter, avait annoncé que l’armée américaine allait permettre à ses personnels féminins d’intégrer des unités de combat, y compris celles des forces spéciales. Mais à la condition de remplir les mêmes critères physiques que les hommes pour y accéder.

Les femmes « pourront piloter des chars », « tirer au mortier », « être membres des forces spéciales » ou « mener » des soldats d’infanterie au combat », avait énuméré M. Carter, pour qui l’armée se doit de « compter sur le plus grand nombre possible de talents ».

Quelques mois plus tôt, dans le cadre d’une expérimentation, deux femmes avaient réussi le très exigeant stage de la Ranger School, dont le brevet est indispensable pour espérer rejoindre le 75th Rangers Regiment, une unité de l’US Army Special Operations Command.

Suite à la décision annoncée par M. Carter, deux femmes officiers vont participer, et c’est une première, au très sélectif entraînement des Special Forces de l’US Army, c’est à dire les fameux « Bérets verts ». Cette unité, créée en 1952, est spécialisée dans les actions commandos, la reconnaissance, le contre-terrorisme et la guerre non conventionnelle. En 2015, l’on compte environ 12.000 « Bérets verts », répartis en 5 « Special Forces Groups ».

« Ce sont les deux premières femmes à avoir été sélectionnées » pour cette formation, a confirmé, auprès de l’AFP, le major Melody Faulkenberry, une porte-parole de Fort Bragg, là où est implanté l’état-major des Bérets verts. Très peu de détails ont été donnés sur ces deux candidates, si ce n’est qu’elles sont toutes les deux officiers.

US Army and MDA inaugurate missile defence system data terminal in New York


26 July 2016



The US Army and Missile Defense Agency (MDA) has inaugurated the in-flight interceptor communications system (IFICS) data terminal at Fort Drum, New York, US.

The IFICS data terminal receives messages from exo-atmospheric kill vehicles (EKV) while they are in flight, enabling constant target updates.

It can also transfer the data from the EKV back to a ground-based midcourse defense (GMD) fire control system.

The GMD can engage and destroy intermediate and long-range ballistic missile threats.

MDA and integration programme executive brigadier general William T. Cooley said: “This state-of-the-art facility has enhanced our ability to deter or defeat the limited use of long-range ballistic missiles against our nation.


“It is a vital asset provided to US Northern Command to execute their critically important homeland defence mission.”

The data terminal facility was designed by Black and Veatch and constructed by Black Horse Group, under the supervision of the US Army Corps of Engineers.

Construction on the data terminal began in August 2013, and the site was approved for use by the US Northern Command in December 2015.

There are currently five similar facilities at Fort Greely and Shemya, Alaska; and Vandenberg Air Force Base, California, US.

MDA aims to develop, test and field an integrated, layered, ballistic missile defence system to defend the US and its allies against ballistic missiles.

Incoming commander for Army Space and Missile Defense Command dies
Michelle Tan, Army Times 2:22 p.m. EDT August 1, 2016



Maj. Gen. John Rossi, the incoming commander of Army Space and Missile Defense Command, has died, the Army announced Monday.

Rossi, 55, died Sunday in his on-post home at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama. The investigation into the cause of Rossi’s death is still underway.

“At this point we don’t have any indication of foul play,” said Chris Grey, a spokesman for Army Criminal Investigation Command.

Rossi most recently served as the commanding general of the Army Fires Center of Excellence and Fort Sill, Oklahoma. Before that, he served as the director of the Army Quadrennial Defense Review Office in the Pentagon.

Rossi had just arrived at Redstone Arsenal after relinquishing command of Fort Sill in July. He and his family moved into their house on-post less than two weeks ago, said John Cummings, a spokesman for Army Space and Missile Defense Command.

On Tuesday, Rossi had been scheduled to be promoted to lieutenant general and succeed Lt. Gen. David Mann as commander of Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command.

Mann was scheduled to retire; he will now remain in command, Cummings said.

“Our thoughts and prayers at with Maj. Gen. John Rossi’s family,” said Lt. Gen. Larry Wyche, deputy commanding general of Army Material Command and senior commander of Redstone Arsenal, in a statement. “We share their grief during this time of loss. Our priority right now is to take care of the family, ensuring they have all the resources they need during this critical time.”

Rossi grew up on Long Island, New York. He graduated from West Point in 1983 and was commissioned as an air defense artillery officer, according to a biography provided by the Army.

During his time in the Army, Rossi has served in the U.S., Korea, Germany, Southwest Asia and Iraq, commanding at every level from battery to the Fires Center of Excellence.

He is survived by his wife, Liz, and their three children and one grandchild.

DoD IG: Paladin SPHs should not deploy without fire extinguisher fix

Daniel Wasserbly, Washington, DC - IHS Jane's Defence Weekly
08 August 2016



Key Points
Auditors recommended design fixes to add AFES coverage in howitzer crew compartments
The army plans to more clearly differentiate between stressful and non-stressful firing conditions for upcoming tests
The US Army has sufficiently justified its plan to buy an initial 133 M109A7 self-propelled howitzers (SPHs) but deficiencies in the programme remain, including for a new fire suppression system, the US Department of Defense Inspector General (DoD IG) found.

Officials with the Paladin Integrated Management (PIM) programme "justified their plan to produce 133 initial production vehicles", including 33 test vehicles and "initiated system fixes to address seven of the nine performance deficiencies identified by the test community during the system development phase", according to the redacted report, published 5 August.

US Army develops new engine for Black Hawk and Apache helicopters

The US Army Aviation and Missile Research, Development and Engineering Center's Aviation Development Directorate (ADD) is developing a new military helicopter engine that would provide 50% more power at the same weight as the current fielded engine.

The advanced affordable turbine engine (AATE) demonstrator programme aims to develop a turboshaft engine with reduced fuel consumption and improved shaft horsepower.

This engine configuration can be fitted into the Black Hawk and Apache installation envelopes, as well as current and Future Vertical Lift rotorcraft.

It is said to improve range and payload capability and increase hot and high operational capability for Apache and Black Hawk platforms.


AATE agreements technical agent Anastasia Kozup said: "ADD provided the engineering oversight and contract monitoring functions for the design, fabrication, and testing of the AATE technologies, leading to the successful demonstration of advanced engine systems for rotorcraft."

Two cost share arrangements for the engines have been awarded to General Electric and Advanced Turbine Engine Company, a joint venture of Honeywell and Pratt & Whitney.

The AATE programme culminated in 2014 with the completion of full engine system demonstrations, which included performance, durability, and sand tests.

The demonstrations significantly mitigated the risks involved with transitioning advanced turboshaft engine technology to a planned programme of record, known as the Improved Turbine Engine Program, the US Army said in a statement.

La vie de soldats américains mise en danger à cause de casques défectueux


Posté dans Amériques, Forces terrestres, Industrie par Laurent Lagneau Le 18-08-2016


US Army - Page 40 53135

En 2006, la société ArmorSource reçut une commande du Pentagone portant sur 102.000 casques en kevlar de type ACH (Advanced Combat Helmet) pour un montant de 30 millions de dollars. Le contrat fut honoré en 2009.

Seulement, un an plus tard, il s’avéra que ces équipements présentaient des défauts de conception, au point que 44.000 d’entre eux furent retirés de la circulation par l’US Army, ce qui coûta 19 millions de dollars…

Il aura fallu attendre la publication d’un rapport du bureau d’inspection du département américain de la Justice pour connaître les dessous de cette affaire.

Ainsi, le rapport confirme que les casques présentaient de « graves défaillances balistiques » et qu’ils avaient été fabriqués avec des « matériaux dégradés ou non autorisés ».

En outre, l’on y apprend qu’ArmorSource avait confié leur fabrication à la centrale pénitentiaire de Beaumont, au Texas, sans s’assurer un contrôle strict de la qualité. Cool

En outre, continue le rapport, les détenus qui fabriquaient ces casques ont eu entre leurs mains des outils « susceptibles d’être utilisés comme armes dans la prison et par conséquent mettaient en danger la sécurité du personnel ».

Depuis, la ligne de production a été fermée et ArmorSource a accepté de payer 3 millions de dollars en vertu du « False Claims Act », qui est une loi censée protéger l’État fédéral contre la fraude d’entreprises ayant obtenu des contrats publics.

« Le gouvernement des États-Unis s’appuie sur des entreprises pour fabriquer des équipements essentiels pour la protection de nos hommes et femmes en uniforme. Si ces équipements ne respectent pas les normes de qualité, c’est une tromperie à l’égard du contribuable qui peut aussi mettre des vies en danger », a fait valoir Benjamin Mizer, un responsable du département de la Justice.

Cependant, l’enquête n’a reçu aucun indication sur des cas de militaires américains tués en Afghanistan ou en Irak à cause de ces casques défectueux. Ce qui ne veut pas dire qu’il n’y en ait pas eu. Des recherches sont en cours pour le déterminer, d’après le Washington Post.

Visiblement, le Pentagone ne tient pas rigueur à ArmorSource pour cette affaire. L’entreprise, implantée à Hebron (Ohio), a en effet obtenu de nouveaux contrats de sa part, dont un d’un montant de 93 millions de dollars en 2013. Et, cette année, elle a reçu deux nouvelles commandes, dont une concernant 10.000 casques pour l’US Marine Corps (Lightweight Helmets).

« Inutile de dire que nous sommes fiers et enthousiastes à ce sujet et nous voyons dans ces commandes un signe clair de la confiance du gouvernement en ArmorSource, ses employés, et sa technologie de pointe », avait commenté Yoav Kapah, le Pdg de cette entreprise, en soulignant que les prochains casques seront fabriqués à Hebron.

via Press Release.


The U.S. Army has awarded Raytheon Company (NYSE: RTN) a $5.7 million risk-mitigation contract for the Long Range Precision Fires program. The new missile will replace the Army's
aging inventory of long range, surface-to-surface missiles. Fired from mobile launchers, LRPF will fly farther, faster, and feature a new warhead. "As the world's largest missile maker, Raytheon is ideally positioned to develop the Long Range Precision Fires solution the Army needs," said Dr. Thomas Bussing, Raytheon Advanced Missile Systems vice president. "With our wide portfolio of products, proven technology and guided missile expertise, Raytheon can deliver a low-risk, highly effective and affordable solution."

The Army's current inventory of long range, precision-guided,
surface-to-surface missiles dates back to the 1980s. The new LRPF missile will be more affordable, survivable against advanced threats, and more compact, allowing the Army to double the fire power of long-range missiles in its mobile launchers.
I once thought that the Navy was the only service that was truly getting ready to fight the next war. After a few missteps by the ladies dept I'm thinking that only the Army has a clear view of a future fight with a near peer.

They've latched onto the idea of fighting without air superiority. They're working on upgrading their armor (kinda stuck with the Stryker but at least they're adding firepower to it...the M1 Abrams upgrades are keeping pace and the AMPV seems on track) and now they're getting their rocket artillery house in order.

ATACMS is the conventional Pershing that we've always needed and its nice to see they're finally getting one. Now if they could only get cannon artillery fixed.

US Army to assess C-UAS capability for AN/TPQ-53

Huw Williams, London - IHS Jane's International Defence Review
24 August 2016


US Army - Page 40 Us3010


The US Army has issued a Sources Sought notice to assess the potential to add a counter unmanned aircraft system (C-UAS) capability to the service's AN/TPQ-53 radar.

The radar is employed in a counter-fire role, where it is used to automatically detect, track, classify, and locate the point of origin of mortar bombs, artillery rounds, and rockets and is deployed as part of a wider Counter-Rocket Artillery and Mortar (C-RAM) system.

The army has identified the addition of the C-UAS capability to the AN/TPQ-53 as an urgent operational requirement and the radar has been designated as a key system for this capability.

Among the requirements outlined in the notice, any capability upgrade would have to not impact the radar's current counter-fire capability and maintain the associated waveforms, nor increase manpower.

As well as detection and tracking of UASs, the new capability will need to offer target classification also.

At present the AN/TPQ-53 software interfaces with the Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System and Forward Area Air Defense Command and Control (FAAD C2) systems, passing to them data on targets; the modifications to introduce the C-UAS capability will need to provide these systems with information on the UAS detected.

As IHS Jane's previously reported, Lockheed Martin - manufacturer of the AN/TPQ-53 - has developed an upgrade to the radar's software that brings the ability to identify and track UASs, and to relay that data to a command and control node.

The company demonstrated the capability during the US Army's Maneuver Fires Integration Exercise (MFIX) 2016, held in May at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, and has seemingly met the requirements outlined in the Sources Sought notice. During the demonstration, the radar identified and tracked multiple UASs and provided data to a FAAD C2 system while simultaneously providing a C-RAM capability.

The Sources Sought notice calls for the integration of the C-UAS capability on up to 10 radars, as well as the addition of a non-developmental identification friend or foe (IFF) system.
