Look it can be part of a learning curve. That wouild be normal, just a bit embarassing. Just claiming that for a major exercise you do not flight but you would during war (untrained in these very conditions) is well… Curious.
Again, it is a Norwegian AF restriction during peacetime. The fact still remains that they can choose to operate their aircraft, any aircraft, any way they please during peacetime. The article clearly mentioned that these limits won’t apply during conflict and of course there is no evidence in the article that claims this is a technical limitation.
As usual you seem to find absolute non-issues and try to inflate them to something big.
Come on, seriously. You cant’t participate to biggest NATO training in ten years, happening on your soil but you would fight -without training (as you can’t train during pea e time) – in these very conditions? And ALL other planes did the job?
I could accept a “we do not know the jet enough yet”, but THAT is not baked at all…
“Lulz” ??? How old are you? 13?
Sure but “handling” it is not the point is it? It is a peacetime restriction not because the aircraft cannot “handle it” or that Norwegian Air Force can’t perform in those conditions. It is simply what they want during peacetime. Trying to project that as some sort of capability shortcoming (comparison to a Cesna) smacks of desperation really.
Well… The other planes DID participate that day no? As said above it may be a momentary regulation for new aircraft in Norway, still embarrassing, after the no show in australia, the no show at Franborough, the delays in Israel. Poor F-35 so unlucky! However incredibly stealth…
My argument may be half baked, but yours is also. There is no clue that another solution but oled could be fond. Anyway, the histrory of the helmet is just an example. Sorry, i do not believe the risk assessment studies were properly led. Neither some like the calculation pwoser needed.
In the meanwhile, other planes did the work while F-35 was grounded. Frankly! 16 Kts side wind, one can handle that with a Cessna T172… (with troubles,yes).
It’s called an emerging technology. Without such “poor management” we will not even be flying braced wire fabrics covered airplane. The Wright brothers having been the first poor managers of aviation history.
Except Noone could imagine OLED screens could be used before 2020. TRL perspectives were about 5/6, no more. (and you know what? i checked). Therefore it was poor planning, not accepted risk.
Anyone said eveil americans? Things are quite more complex aren’t they? Evil french also use Pleiades satellites (and further), Gabriel C160, some ship, ASTAC pods etc to do it. Definitely with less assets of course. If you talk to mils in Syria, more and more documents are classified “5eyes + France”. But not Norad. We are only guessing here.
Tell me WHERE it is fixed in forces first. NExt gen helmet isn’t there. The logic is that many planned capabilities COULD NOT be expected to be matched at the time jrdd was redacted (eg. The mtiple changes of the helmet, jitter, gree glow, weight etc.) and that is a strong proponent of poor management.
However, did you see how Norway F-35 fared in recent exercise? Poor babies were grounded due to wind while others did the work
And you know what, wind was moderate to strong, no more than 13 Kts side wind. Ridiculous (once more). Will be fixed one day, sure. In the meanwhile, buy popcorns and enjoy the show…
France is just butthurt that they will not be able to look at the 5/2-Eyes related intel as they create the MDFs.
Even if so, how do ou create MDFs without data?
A Jabo with a nuke and a screen compiling tactical info…
Why are you mentioning F-35 here?
As i told you i’m digging. Therefore i will not answer you know. Maybe (i insist on maybe) Canada NORAD would need to know things we do not want to unveil such as nuke systems. I don’t know exactly.
Exactly Opit. Pg is linked to MDFs btw. (same as B-61 bombs for belgium for example). Trying to dig
Like most modern fighters – ie Teja, Typhoon, F-16, most F-15, F-22, J10, J20, F-35 or even F-8 or F-4…
Seriously…
No idea. CAn ask to their comm., but no warranty of any answer.
There is no logic to that argument at all…
If your claims were coherent it might be worth taking them seriously but in contrast to having the information explained to you multiple times you simply come across as having sour grapes because the F-35 is winning sales campaigns while the Rafale doesn’t.
“Anything to bring into the dbate? Because “you lack logic” is 4th level like argument.
Who said it was the French Gov that made the decision?
Trust me on that one.
Oh and F3R standard was officially accepted yesterday by DGA.
