    In the list are both TTH and NFH helicopters, so….in the UH-60 series are all the versions, so Spain is a UH-60 series user, or the Seahawk is another version? then NFH is another version from the TTH?

    Vamos que el Seahawk sigue siendo una versión del UH-60 y por lo tanto cuenta.

    Spain had the money for the Tornado, but we needed a multirole plane, and the only true options were F-18 or F-16.

    The socialists government tried that the EdA could accept a mixed solution with Tornado IDS and Mirage 2000C, and the winner was the F-18, again….

    So we love F-18´s

    For some portuguese press still exists a kind of “perigo espanhol” or “spanish danger”, so they need their combat units, because we have a secret plan for an invasion or something like that. Most of the people are faaaaaaar more reasonable, but hey it´s the nationalistic way of life.

    And the portuguese Alpha Jets looks great, the F-16´s looks worse that their old A-7P, they were fabulous.

    “Le malheureux contrat conclu en 1993 avec les Emirats arabes unis et à l’origine d’un abyssal déficit, n’est toujours pas entièrement honoré. Douze ans après la signature de ce contrat qui, comme les autres, n’a que trop traîné, les Emiriens constatent qu’ils ont commandé trop de dépanneurs et demandent à Giat d’annuler les 18 derniers engins non encore livrés, quitte à payer les frais engagés. Mais les pièces ont été achetées auprès des sous-traitants et il ne reste plus à Giat qu’à effectuer son travail d’assemblage. L’entreprise se retrouve dans une situation inextricable : compte tenu de l’inflation, de l’évolution défavorable du dollar et du fait que ces engins ont été vendus à perte, le coût engagé à ce stade du processus industriel dépasse déjà de 50 % le prix qu’auraient à régler les Emiriens pour des engins assemblés selon les termes du contrat originel. Mis à contribution pour tenter de trouver une solution, les bureaux d’études du groupe ont proposé de transformer les 18 engins en démineurs. Bien trop onéreuse, la transformation a été refusée par les Emiriens, la responsabilité en incombant, selon la direction, aux ingénieurs qui avaient dessiné un engin trop ambitieux.”

    Yeah, very jalous…..”abyssal déficit” then? a very lucrative deal….hehehe, could be for MTU engines……
