F-16 around the world

Rappel du premier message :

l'AS a des AIM-120C

F-16C


F-16CG Night Falcon

normalement la designation CG n´existe plus apres l´upgrade CCIP,c´est nommé mtn CM ou C+ (on peut voir le JHMCS)

F-16AM ( Royal Netherlands Air Force )

Le 510th FS de retour de Zaragos après leur dernier entrainement avec les spanich

c'est quoi la config

SUU-20 practice bomb/rocket dispenser + travel pod

Ca me parait asymétrique

non,le travel pod pese pas grand chose,presque le meme poids
en plus l´asymmetrie c´est toleré,ca reduit seulement le factor G de l´avion,ici c´est symmetric et c´est 5 G a cause du travel pod limit
parfois tu peux voir le travel pod tout seul avec 2 tanks ce qui est assymetric

Assymetrique je veux dire en matière d'aérodynamique et non le poids .

non c´est pas le cas ici

Air Force officials have confirmed a Shaw AFB F-16 Fighting Falcon pilot was killed April 3, after his aircraft crashed in Afghanistan returning to base from a close air support mission.

The pilot, Capt. James Steel, 29, from the 77th Fighter Squadron here, graduated from the U.S. Air Force Academy in 2006, completed pilot training and arrived at Shaw in June 2010. He was the chief of mobility for the 77th FS.

The plane was on its final approach to land at Bagram Air Field after a routine air support mission around 11 p.m. when it lost contact with its wingman and the control tower, Air Force Central Command spokesperson Capt. Natassia Cherne said. It crashed 10 miles south of the runway.

"While the cause of the crash is under investigation, initial reporting indicates there was no insurgent activity in the area at the time of the crash," the news release says.

Qu'est il dontc arrivé ? Pas de Sam, pas d'attaque contre l'avion, s'il y a un problème technique, il reste l'ejection ... Il y a quelque chose qui cloche ...

Peut être un problême au siège éjectable ! mais aussi toutes les éjections ne sont pas forcément réussies ! il seuffit que l'avion se renverse pour que tu ne sois plus capaable de le faire au risque de te diriger directement vers le sol !

Northrop Grumman's SABR Brings Fifth Generation Fighter Radar Capabilities to F-16 Aircraft

2013-05-15T11:00:00-0700




BALTIMORE – May 15, 2013 – Northrop Grumman Corporation's (NYSE:NOC) Scalable Agile Beam Radar (SABR) designed for the F-16 fighter aircraft recently demonstrated its autonomous, all-environment precision targeting capability, which will enhance the aircraft's mission capabilities.

The capability, known as Auto Target Cueing (ATC), uses high-definition synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images to locate and prioritize targets of interest and display them to the pilot. The active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar architecture allows it to carry out this function while performing other tasks at the same time.

"With SABR, we have built on our F-35 radar investment to bring fifth generation fighter radar capabilities such as ATC to the F-16," said Joseph Ensor, vice president and general manager of Northrop Grumman's Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance and Targeting Systems Division. "Features like ATC, along with the F-35 modes that we have ported to SABR, will enable greater mission effectiveness, reduce pilot workload and provide a better level of situational awareness than F-16 pilots have ever had."

SABR is an affordable, multifunction AESA radar designed specifically for F-16 retrofit. SABR provides longer detection and tracking ranges, high-resolution SAR maps for all-environment precision targeting, interleaved mode operations for greater situational awareness and greater reliability.

Northrop Grumman has nearly four decades of F-16 radar development and integration experience, and has delivered more than 6,000 fire control radars to U.S. and international air forces. The company also supplies the AESA fire control radars for the F-16 Block 60, F-22 and F-35 aircraft.

Northrop Grumman is a leading global security company providing innovative systems, products and solutions in unmanned systems, cybersecurity, C4ISR, and logistics and modernization to government and commercial customers worldwide. Please visit www.northropgrumman.com for more information.

Vous savez a combien ce vend un F-16MLU ?

Faudrait regarder les deals Jordaniens et Roumains.

Mais je pense que le coût de l'appareil ça doit être < 20 millions.

Three years later the Fuerza Aérea de Chile (FACh) added 18 F16 MLU A/Bs from the Dutch Air Force (RNlAF) costing $180 million US dollars. (...) This second batch of 16 F-16s MLUs, including spares and support equipment, would cost 170 million US dollars and would be delivered in 2009

10 millions de $ à la louche...

il n´en reste pas bcp a vendre
