How Many Miles Is Doral Tires

Turkey enters the Talarion EADS UAV, which employs Spain, Germany and France

Turkey will join the program of development of unmanned aircraft (UAV) Talarion EADS already working in Spain, Germany and France, thanks to an agreement signed in Istanbul between Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) and Cassidi, Defense Division European consortium.

The letter of intent, setting out a "close partnership" Talarion program is rublicó during an official ceremony under the Fair Defense Industry (IDEF) held in the town Turkish.

The agreement means that TAI will participate in the development of the fuselage and tail of the aircraft and which may contribute in the program with a weight of up to 25% of the workload required.

The agreement was formalized in the presence of Undersecretary of Defense Industry of Turkey, Murad Bayar, and German Deputy Defence Minister, Thomas Kossendery. Cassidi As indicated in a press release, Turkey has always supported "the program Talarion" with significant investment "and the integration of" prestigious companies in the Turkish industry, "including TAI.

Talarion the European program for the new generation of unmanned aerial medium-altitude and long range, which aims to meet the initial requirements of France, Germany and Spain. May lead to different safety and security missions, such as combating piracy, drug control, border protection and management of natural and ecological crisis.

EADS expects its prototype's maiden flight takes place in 2014. To do this, Cassidi has created a platform for engineers French, English, Turkish and German, as well as major suppliers.

Funding Problem "With this industrial commitment, we firmly believe that potential customers decide to support this unique product," said CEO Cassidi Air Systems, Bernhard Gerwert.

According to initial plans of EADS, the program required a funding of nearly 3,000 million euros. For the design and development, the group wanted to Spain, France and Germany contributed 1,500 million overall.

financial crisis in full and limiting defense budgets, the European company has been forced to propose a new funding scheme.

Now the group intends to focus on making a prototype would cost about 300 million euros from the countries behind the project (100 million from each) to be paid in three annual installments. The development of the aircraft could continue until 2019, with extra payments between 30 and 60 million for each government.

I Am Attracted To A Milf

The EA-18G Growler electronic warfare for the first time participating in a combat operation

Two years after entering service, the electronic warfare aircraft of the U.S. Navy EA-18G Growler has participated in combat for the first time in Libya. The EA-18G is equipped with radar jamming pod ALQ-99 and the electronic scanning radar (AESA) APG-79, which also has capabilities of disturbance (with appropriate software) as well as the ability to destroy systems electronic. It has been suggested that the EA-18G could have done this with some Libyan armored vehicles.

U.S. planes underway in Libya all electronic warfare missions, 75% of in-flight refueling missions and 70% of air surveillance.

The EA-18G replace the EA-6B, which until now provided the electronic protection against enemy radars and missiles to aircraft for the Navy and Air Force. The EA-6B carries a crew of 4, while the EA-18G has only two. The EA-18G can carry up to five electronic warfare pods, two AMRAAM air-air missiles and two anti-radiation missile (HARM anti-radar).

will be in service beyond 2035 and therefore could be the last manned aircraft electronic warfare, where replaced by unmanned aircraft with greater capacity and develop is dangerous mission without endangering the crew.
The EA-18G price is about $ 100 million and the export version could be smaller. Aircraft prices vary widely due to the need to incorporate the costs of development in each plane.

Fade Red In Blemishes

British Brimstone missiles object of desire of Americans and French

U.S. and France want to equip its fighter aircraft with British Brimstone missiles, used with great success in operations in Libya in the past two months.

The Brimstone was initially developed as an updated version of the U.S. Hellfire missile, developed by Boeing to meet the requirements of the British Air Force anti-tank missile long-range requirements arising from the evaluation of performance in UK first Gulf War. For what at first was going to be like the British missile with a search engine (millimeter-wave radar) and configured to be launched from aircraft and not just from helicopters or unmanned aerial vehicles. Hellfire currently only has the general shape and weight (48.5 kg).

Brimstone missile launcher

The Brimstone missile is a "fire and forget", in which data is loaded by the target of official weapons systems before launch. It is programmable in accordance with the needs of each mission, including the ability to locate targets in a certain area and destroy itself if it is unable to locate the target in the designated area. It has a double burden hollow double tandem, which uses a smaller initial load to start the reactive armor, followed by a greater burden with greater capacity for destruction, designed to penetrate armor.

three years ago, the United Kingdom added a double form (radar and laser) the missile which also allows you to find the target, determine the point of impact to cause maximum damage, and because a plane can carry twenty-four missiles, target acquisition system requires an algorithm to ensure that the missile hit its objectives in a phased manner and not simultaneously on the same target.

In Tornado, a special pitcher with three Brimstone missile is set to one of the anchor points of the plane, and the launcher can also be used in the Eurofighter.

The Brimstone had been unable to confirm its efficacy to use in Afghanistan and Libya, with particularly impressive performance, so it has attracted U.S. and French interest to use it for its effectiveness against vehicles.

As a side effect, its success is causing its failure. Have been so successful in Libya, which the British Air Force is running out of missiles, not because stocks are dwindling, but because if continuous operation in Libya for several months, the UK will have to acquire new missiles to maintain reserves of g uerra Brimstone missile.
