blah blah blah…
Video od supposed training for PAS17
Nvm, about pilot stories, they did praise the C2 like capabilities,of F-35 (another pilot story, not in press).
your speculation about interesting time is erroneous as F-35 only arrived during second week so was not opposed to anyother “blue”, be it F-22, Typhoon or Rafale.
is so strange in having Rafale with 3x1200L tanks more persistence than F-35? Looks normal to me.
if you checked what was,written, the author himself said that “cost perimeter” is disputable. There is no cost analysis. Which is near impossible to ndo. Eg. retrofit contract : where to put it? inside LRIP? Btw, Yves did write to jPO but did not get any answer to his questions. Where di i push comptroller metric? In the end, all costs add…
Bio, you can understand that some are skeptical about how the SAR reports are elaborated?
it is paper , not internet ste. Won’t spend my time scanning nit for you, take it or leave it. The first in last out referred to playtime.
I can anser for Rafale. Cost were included until F3. F3R was separately funded, aswell as F4 will be.
Can we stop with pilots stories without any evidences please?. It is annoying and doesn’t add anything to the discussion.
As usual, denial..; However. Raids Aviation, n° 30, JUN/JUL 2017, p. 56 line 1 “The Rafale had the most inttersting playtime thanks to the use of 3 suersonic 1200L tanks”. clear enough? Referenced enough?
Except that SAR are estimates no? I am talki ng about actually paid real money. Notice i nsaid lot9 costs are skyrocketing not individdual cost, which would be anyway ompossible to do as accou ntability of LRIP9 is not closed yet (dunno how to say that in english). About armchair, did you serve?
(i) you call ma armchair general,hence the general. (ii) DOD acounting practices are close to robbery in the case of F-35. I am just giving a list of the executed contracts and their ncosts.you are pathetic tryi ng to use SAR as definitive value document. Whatever claims, in the end the only real number paid by taxpayers are those available on usaspendings. (accountability documents) and yes you said for several weeks that swiss leaks documents could not be true as evaluations aren’t quoted that way. Remember?
Sintra, please check on eithernusa spending or fdps with contract number, very simple…
Btw, it is normal that costs of LRIP9 are very high, as the industrial line had to be changed a lot.
As i said, last issue of raids aviation. Nothing abnormal as Rafale can take 3 supersonic 1200L tanks.
About the searchb page Spudman, why don’t you go on on fdps governmental site and type
N0001914C0002 (contract nuber) in search engine? bio, ever been a general? remeber when you nwere spamming everywherethat swiss eval leak was a fake? i prefer to stick to actual accounting documents than to jpo plain lies.
i just said that F-35 wand not the most persistent plane, particularly during high speed combats over the sea. Like it or not, pilot testimony, not nyour fanboyism. Source is in latest raids aviation. 3pancho” testimony. Very funny how you get touchy. Btw, mrmalaya, at least nthe french build ,a,plane. They are not just subcontractors as uk.
Did anyone notice there were positive feedback on F-35 and i nsaid it?
In the meanwhile, real cost of LRIP9 is skyrocketing… https://www.fpds.gov/common/jsp/easySearchView.jsp
