Οι νυφούλες δεν σκοτώνουν (αν και έχουν ειπωθεί αντίστοιχα άσματα : "Για τον έρωτά σου θα πεθάνω..λαλαλα" κτλ )

Τα αυτοκίνητα υπάρχουν για να μεταφέρουν, άσχετα αν στα χέρια ορισμένων μπορεί και να σκοτώνουν...

Τα αεροπλάνα όμως και μάλιστα τα συγκεκριμένα είναι φτιαγμένα για να σκοτώνουν. Τεχνολογικά είναι άξια θαυμασμού αλλά να παθιαστείς με μία πολεμική μηχανή είναι κάπως...

Πάμε τόπικ: "Πάθος για Πολιτικά Αεροπλάνα" (Airbuss και τα ρέστα.)

[Turambar]

Μετά το παθος για τους κινούμενους υπερκαταναλωτές ενέργειας, τώρα να εκδηλώσουμε και την αγάπη μας για τους ιπτάμενους μαζικούς δολοφόνους....



καλά σταματάω την γκρίνια...

Σαν μηχανικοί που είμαστε (είσαστε), η τεχνολογία είναι αυτή που πρέπει να ξέρουμε... Αλλά πάρτον σαν αμυντικές μηχανές και όχι σαν όπλα που σκοτώνουν!
Ή μήπως δεν είναι στην επικαιρότητα? (θυμήσου τί έγινε στην Καρπαθο πριν λίγο καιρό.) Γενικά πιστεύω ότι δεν είναι κακό να γνωρίζουμε....

F-22 Raptor Achievements

The F-22 has the ability to cruise at supersonic speeds.
The Raptor will be the leading American air-to-air fighter of the new century.

F-22 Raptor Background

Prior to its selection as winner of what was then known as the Advanced Tactical Fighter (ATF) competition, the F-22 team conducted a 54-month demonstration/ validation (dem/val) program. The effort involved the design, construction and flight testing of two YF-22 prototype aircraft. Two prototype engines, the Pratt & Whitney YF119 and General Electric YF120, also were developed and tested during the program. The dem/val program was completed in December 1990.

Much of that work was performed at Boeing in Seattle, Lockheed (now known as Lockheed Martin) facilities in Burbank, Calif., and at General Dynamics' Fort Worth, Texas, facilities (now known as Lockheed Martin Tactical Aircraft Systems). The prototypes were assembled in Lockheed's Palmdale, Calif., facility and made their maiden flight from there. Since that time Lockheed's program management and aircraft assembly operations have moved to Marietta, Ga., for the EMD and production phases.

A $9.55 billion contract for Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) of the F-22 was awarded to the industry team of Boeing and Lockheed Martin in August 1991. Contract changes since then have elevated the contract value to approximately $11 billion. Under terms of the contract, the F-22 team will complete the design of the aircraft, produce production tooling for the program, and build and test nine flightworthy and two ground-test aircraft.

In February 1995, the Air Force customer approved the final design of the F-22 air vehicle and confirmed that the program was ready to proceed to fabrication and assembly. The Air Force plans to procure 339 F-22s, and production is scheduled to run through 2013.

F-117 Nighthawk Achievements

The F-117 was the first true stealth aircraft released.
Although the F-117's flew through some of the most heavily defended areas in Desert Storm, not one aircraft was shot down or damaged.
On their first trip, the F-117's flew non-stop from Holloman AFB to Kuwait, taking around 18.5 hours -- a record for single-seat fighters still standing today.
 

F-117 Nighthawk Features

The unique design of the single-seat F-117A provides exceptional combat capabilities. About the size of an F-15 Eagle, the twin-engine aircraft is powered by two General Electric F404 turbofan engines and has quadruple redundant fly-by-wire flight controls. Air refuelable, it supports worldwide commitments and adds to the deterrent strength of U.S. military forces.

The F-117A can employ a variety of weapons and is equipped with sophisticated navigation and attack systems integrated into a digital avionics suite that increases mission effectiveness and reduces pilot workload. Detailed planning for missions into highly defended target areas is accomplished by an automated mission planning system developed, specifically, to take advantage of the unique capabilities of the F-117A.

F-117 Nighthawk Background

The F-117A production decision was made in 1978 with a contract awarded to Lockheed Advanced Development Projects, the "Skunk Works," in Burbank, Calif. The first flight over the Nevada test ranges was on June 18, 1981, only 31 months after the full-scale development decision. Streamlined management by Aeronautical Systems Center, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, combined breakthrough stealth technology with concurrent development and production to rapidly field the aircraft.

The first F-117A was delivered in 1982, and the last delivery was in the summer of 1990. Air Combat Command's only F-117A unit, the 4450th Tactical Group, (now the 49th Fighter Wing, Holloman Air Force Base, N.M.), achieved operational capability in October 1983.

During Operation Desert Storm in 1991, F-117A's flew approximately 1,300 sorties and scored direct hits on 1,600 high-value targets in Iraq. It was the only U.S. or coalition aircraft to strike targets in downtown Baghdad. Since moving to Holloman AFB in 1992, the F-117A and the men and women of the 49th Fighter Wing have deployed to Southwest Asia more than once. On their first trip, the F-117s flew non-stop from Holloman to Kuwait, a flight of approximately 18.5 hours -- a record for single-seat fighters that stands today.

In 1999, 24 F-117A's deployed to Aviano Air Base, Italy, and Spangdahlem AB, Germany, to support NATO's Operation Allied Force. The aircraft led the first Allied air strike against Yugoslavia on March 24, 1999.

The F-117A program demonstrates that stealth aircraft can be designed for reliability and maintainability. It created a revolution in military warfare by incorporating low-observable technology into operational aircraft. The aircraft receives support through a Lockheed-Martin contract known as Total System Performance Responsibility.

Turambar αφήστε τους ρομαντισμούς και θυμηθήτε ότι μετά την 11η Σεπτεμβρίου (που εγώ πιστεύω οι ίδιοι οι Αμερικάνοι σκηνοθέτησαν ώστε στο όνομα του πολέμου κατά της τρομοκρατίας να εφαρμόσουν την επεκτατική πολιτική τους-ΑΦΓΑΝΙΣΤΑΝ-ΙΡΑΚ-ΛΙΒΑΝΟΣ-και μεθαύριο ΙΡΑΝ  ), όλος ο πλανήτης είναι ένα απέραντο πεδίο μάχης, καθώς τα τρομοκρατικά χτυπήματα δεν έχουν ούτε τόπο ούτε χρονική στιγμή. Το να ξέρουμε, έστω και αυτά τα λίγα περί "φονικών μηχανών" δεν είναι κακό... 

Πρώτων... άλλο αυτό που λες, και άλλο το πάθος για τα αεροπλάνα.

Δεύτερων... η δικαιολόγηση πάλι μπάζει, σκοπός είναι να σταματήσει ο πόλεμος, όχι να προετοίμαστούμε για αυτόν

Τρίτων... παραμένουν φονικές μηχανές...άμυνα ή επίθεση λίγη σημασία έχει.

Χωρίς τα "φονικά αυτά" όπλα , οι Τούρκοι θα φτάνανε μέχρι την Σαλονίκη κάθε μέρα. Δεύτερον, μου θυμίζεις παιδί των λουλουδιών της δεκαετίας του 60 που ονειρεύεται έναν όμορφο κόσμο χωρίς πολέμους. Λες εμένα να με αρέσουν οι πόλεμοι? Αλλά μετά την 11η Σεπ. όλα είναι φλου και ζούμε με μια αβεβαιότητα, η οποία θα μεγάλωνε αν δεν υπήρχαν αυτές οι ΑΜΥΝΤΙΚΕΣ μηχανές.

E-3 Sentry Achievements

The E-3 can fly a mission profile for more than 8 hours without refueling.

E-3 Sentry Features

The E-3 Sentry is a modified Boeing 707/320 commercial airframe with a rotating radar dome. The dome is 30 feet (9.1 meters) in diameter, six feet (1.8 meters) thick, and is held 14 feet (4.2 meters) above the fuselage by two struts. It contains a radar subsystem that permits surveillance from the Earth's surface up into the stratosphere, over land or water. The radar has a range of more than 250 miles (375.5 kilometers) for low-flying targets and farther for aerospace vehicles flying at medium to high altitudes. The radar combined with an identification friend or foe subsystem can look down to detect, identify and track enemy and friendly low-flying aircraft by eliminating ground clutter returns that confuse other radar systems.

The E-3 fleet will complete its largest upgrade in 2001. Known as the Block 30/35 Modification Program, the upgrade includes four enhancements: - Electronic Support Measure for passive detection, an electronic surveillance capability to detect and identify air and surface-based emitters.

- Joint Tactical Information Distribution System to provide secure, anti-jam communication for information distribution, position location and identification capabilities.

- An increase in the memory capability in the computer to accommodate JTIDS, EMS and future enhancements.

- Global Positioning System, a satellite-based positioning capability to provide precise global navigation.

Other major subsystems in the E-3 are navigation, communications and computers (data processing). Consoles display computer-processed data in graphic and tabular format on video screens. Console operators perform surveillance, identification, weapons control, battle management and communications functions.

The radar and computer subsystems on the E-3 Sentry can gather and present broad and detailed battlefield information. Data is collected as events occur. This includes position and tracking information on enemy aircraft and ships, and location and status of friendly aircraft and naval vessels. The information can be sent to major command and control centers in rear areas or aboard ships. In time of crisis, this data can be forwarded to the president and secretary of defense in the United States.

In support of air-to-ground operations, the Sentry can provide direct information needed for interdiction, reconnaissance, airlift and close-air support for friendly ground forces. It can also provide information for commanders of air operations to gain and maintain control of the air battle.

As an air defense system, E-3s can detect, identify and track airborne enemy forces far from the boundaries of the United States or NATO countries. It can direct fighter-interceptor aircraft to these enemy targets.

Experience has proven that the E-3 Sentry can respond quickly and effectively to a crisis and support worldwide military deployment operations. It is a jam-resistant system that has performed missions while experiencing heavy electronic countermeasures.

With its mobility as an airborne warning and control system, the Sentry has an greater chance of surviving in warfare than a fixed, ground-based radar system. Among other things, the flight path can quickly be changed according to mission and survival requirements. The E-3 can fly a mission profile for more than 8 hours without refueling. Its range and on-station time can be increased through inflight refueling and the use of an on-board crew rest area.

The aircraft are used as a surveillance asset in support of counter drug missions. U.S. Customs Service officers may fly aboard the E-3 Sentry on precoordinated missions to detect smuggling activities.
 

E-3 Sentry Background

   The Boeing E-3 Sentry is the West's principal AWACS platform. The EC-137D prototype first flew on February 5, 1972, followed by the E-3A first flight on October 31, 1975. The E-3A uses the 707-320B airframe and a massive payload of radar and electronic sensors. The E-3 can scan the skies of all aircraft and missiles and report what it sees electronically to all friendly aircraft, ground fleet, satellites, and to any main headquarter bases. The E-3 is exported to many different countries including France, NATO, Saudi Arabia, and UK. France operates 4 E-3F, Saudi Arabia operates about 5 E-3A, the UK operates around 7 Sentry aircraft, NATO operates about 18 E-3A, and the USAF operates about 32 E-3.
