This has been discussed already when the RFI was out: if I remind correctly, maintenance and fleet sustainement can be part of the offset calculation which would make in 20year (my mem only) quite an easy sum to balance… This is very different from the MMRCA in India
Correction: it’s 30years and this was even stated at the bottom of the article:
:rolleyes:
First off all you can use as many smileys as you want, it will not give anymore weight to your statements.
Second the total amount is 100% and who told you in switzerland th fleet sustainlment could be part of offset calculation in switzerland? Your faith?
Pour le prochain avion de combat, le groupe suisse sera désigné comme centre de compétences pour le matériel (CCM) au lancement du projet. Il réalisera les tâches, non dévolues à l’armée suisse, concernant le suivi technique du système, la gestion du matériel entre la Suisse et l’étranger et la maintenance des avions
It is already in the RFP that RUAG iwill be responsible tof fleet sustainment. Nothing to do with offsets.
Twisting facts as mch as you want will not change them.
Oh btw, did you notice that 20% of the offsets can be accounted as anterior to the RFP (RUAG, Pilatus…)
