comment est-il possible qu´on a pas de topic sur l´Armée chilienne

pour commencer,un post de Janes certes ancien mais parle de la FACh



a vous d´alimenter

Voici les effets catastrophiques du séisme et son raz-de-marée postérieur au Chili sur les chantiers navals d'Asmar.

Selon la vidéo ces chantiers navals tarderont à retourner à la normalité quelque 5 années après les dégâts graves causés...

Norwegian Advanced Surface to Air Missile System

June 21, 2010: Chile is joining Finland, and several other countries, and adopting the Norwegian NASAMS (Norwegian Advanced Surface to Air Missile System) for their air defense needs. Chile was particularly impressed by the track record of reliability NASAMS has compiled. Norway developed this system in the early 1990s and deployed the first missiles and radars in 1995. NASAMS uses the American AMRAMM radar guided air-to-air missiles, but fired from a six missile container, instead of an aircraft. This ground based AMRAAM weighs 159 kg/350 pounds and has a range of 30 kilometers (it's radar can see out 50-70 kilometers), and can hit targets as high as 21 kilometers (65,000 feet).

What makes the AMRAMM so effective as a SAM is the capabilities of its guidance system (which is about two thirds of the $400,000 missiles cost.) Testing also revealed that AMRAAM could be used to shoot down cruise missiles. Chile believes the AMRAAM (also combat proven) used by NASAMS is a better long term choice for air defense, because the United States is constantly updating the missile.

Norway pioneered the use of AMRAAM as a surface-to-air missile, and other systems have been developed using AMRAAM. But the Norwegian version is seen as the best of the lot. Spain, Holland, Finland and the United States also use NASAMS.

Chile – Forward Area Air Defense Engagement and Force Operations Systems

WASHINGTON, July 13, 2010 – The Defense Security Cooperation Agency notified Congress July 13 of a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Government of Chile of three Forward Area Air Defense (FAAD) Command and Control Intelligence Systems (C2I), three Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio Systems (SINCGARS) Vehicle Dual Long-Range Radio Systems (AN/VRC-92E), 14 Enhanced Position Location Reporting System (EPLRS) Radio Transmitters, three FAAD Force Operations Systems Air and Missile Defense Workstations (AMDWS), spare parts and other related equipment and support at an estimated cost of $105 million.

The Government of Chile has requested a possible sale of three Forward Area Air Defense (FAAD) Command and Control Intelligence Systems (C2I), three Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio Systems (SINCGARS) Vehicle Dual Long-Range Radio Systems (AN/VRC-92E), 14 Enhanced Position Location Reporting System (EPLRS) Radio Transmitters, three FAAD Force Operations Systems Air and Missile Defense Workstations (AMDWS), spare and repair parts, support equipment, communication support equipment, repair and return, tool and test equipment, publications and technical data, personnel training and training equipment, U.S. Government and contractor technical and logistics support services, and other related elements of logistics support. The estimated cost is $105 million.

This proposed sale will contribute to the foreign policy and national security of the United States by helping to improve the security of a friendly country which has been and continues to be an important force for political stability and economic progress in South America.

Chile intends to use these systems to modernize its air defense posture. The sale of these systems will positively contribute to the Chilean military’s goal to update its capability while further enhancing greater interoperability between Chile, the U.S., and other allies. Chile will have no difficulty absorbing these systems into its armed forces.

Chile Signs Declaration of Intention for Six KC-390 Transport Aircraft

Released on Tuesday, August 24, 2010

EMBRAER REVEALS DISCUSSIONS ON A PARTNERSHIP WITH CHILEAN AERONAUTICS INDUSTRY FOR THE KC-390

S�o José dos Campos, August 24, 2010 Embraer took part in a ceremony, today, in Santiago, Chile, where the Brazilian and Chilean Defense Ministers signed a Declaration of Intention for that country's participation in the program of the KC-390 military transport jet. Based on this agreement, Chile's National Aeronautical Enterprise (Empresa Nacional de Aeronáutica � ENAER) becomes engaged in the discussions about the development of the airplane and in supplying part of its structure. The declaration also marks the beginning of negotiations regarding the future acquisition of six KC-390 aircraft to equip the Chilean Air Force (FACH).

"We recently received an unmistakable show of support for the KC-390 from the Brazilian government, with the declaration of intention for an initial acquisition of 28 of the aircraft by the Brazilian Air Force (FAB). We are very pleased to have Chile join is in this program," said Orlando José Ferreira Neto, Embraer Executive Vice President, Defense Market. "We have an excellent relationship with ENAER, and we hope to see it grow even more via this partnership that not only reveals the high regard of the Chilean government for the KC-390, which we consider to be a winning product, but also shows our mutual interest in integrating the defense industrial bases of both countries."

The successful partnership between Brazil and Chile dates back to the '90s, when ENAER began to stand out as a supplier of structures for the 50-seat ERJ 145 regional jet, manufactured by Embraer. In 2008, the FACH ordered 12 Super Tucano airplanes by Embraer for pilot tactical training missions, all of which have been delivered and are in operation.

"We are very pleased and proud to see that the quality of the work done by our personnel is being recognized, thus allowing use to participate in this new and relevant program for producing an aircraft like the KC-390," satated ENAER's CEO, General Pedro Bascuan. "Participating in the project brings benefits not only to Embraer and ENAER, but also to both nations, by generating jobs and boosting industrial development. The possibility of working together on the KC-390 program comes as an important alternative for stimulating the manufacture of aeronautical structures in our facilities. We are grateful for the interest show by Embraer in working with us, every time they begin developing new aircraft, whether civilian, commercial, or military."

Last July, at the Farnborough International Air Show, in England, Embraer and the FAB announced the intent of the Brazilian government to make an initial purchase of 28 KC-390 jets to renew the Air Force fleet. The agreement released today marks a new phase in the relationship between the two nations and between Embraer and ENAER.

PICTURE: Surplus Dutch F-16s near delivery to Chile

Chile is close to receiving its next batch of ex-Royal Netherlands Air Force Lockheed Martin F-16AM/BM fighters, with the aircraft now being prepared at Leeuwarden air base.

Six of the secondhand fighters will depart the Netherlands on 12 November for future use by the Chilean air force. Their delivery will be supported by a Dutch McDonnell Douglas KDC-10 tanker/transport.

The first three of the F-16s were pictured while making functional check flights from Leeuwarden on 22 September.

Chile currently has 28 F-16s in active use, as listed in Flightglobal's MiliCAS database. This includes 18 A/B-model aircraft previously acquired from the Netherlands and 10 C/D-standard examples acquired new from Lockheed and delivered from 2006.
