La coalition avait espérer une chute rapide de khadaffi, ca aurait pu etre le cas, mais avec le revirement americain, le ralentissement des frappes dans le cadre de l'otan, fait que ca risque de durer longtemps, 6,9,12 mois avant que kahdaffi s'ecroule,, on entre dans une guerre longue pour nos moyens, ca necessite des budgets pour ca. D'ailleurs, on se rapproche des 3 mois, le PR va devoir expliquer à l'assemble. Pour le moment, Khadaffi parade bras d'honneur et pied de nez dans Tripoli. Voila que je viens d'entendre que les usa ont encore changés de position, ils sont a nouveau sur la ligne UK/France qui exigent le depart du guide. ils vont revenir dans le jeu. les A10 aussi. Ils ont compris qu'il n'y avait pas de negociation possible contrairement a leur position anterieure.

http://www.futura-sciences.com/fr/news/t/astronautique/d/avec-son-lanceur-lourd-spacex-voit-grand-trop-peut-etre_29298/#xtor=RSS-19 SpaceX, qui vise tous les créneaux du marché des lancements institutionnels et commerciaux, vient de dévoiler le lanceur lourd qui lui manquait : Falcon Heavy, qui pourrait voir le jour en 2013. Si cette initiative est à saluer, il faut garder à l’esprit que le succès n'est pas garanti. SpaceX est loin d’avoir démontré sa capacité à autofinancer ses futurs développements après avoir bénéficié de la manne financière de la Nasa. Des subventions pour une politique commerciale agressive Comme à son habitude, Elon Musk a affirmé que ce nouveau lanceur lourd permettrait de faire baisser considérablement les coûts de lancement du fret sur orbite qu'il a fixé à quelque « 2.200 dollars le kilo », dix fois moins qu'avec la navette. Il a également annoncé pouvoir maintenir un tel prix avec seulement quatre lancements par an ! Le prix d'un lancement de satellite sur un Falcon Heavy sera de 100 millions de dollars, un coût inférieur à ce que propose Arianespace. Mais il faut noter qu’Arianespace peut lancer deux satellites et reste ce qui se fait de mieux sur le marché, pour la fiabilité, la disponibilité, la performance et la précision. Fortement subventionnée par le gouvernement des États-Unis qui finance en partie le développement de ses lanceurs à travers les partenariats public-privé Cots et CCDev, SpaceX peut également utiliser certaines des installations de la Nasa pour réaliser des essais et mettre au point certains éléments de ces lanceurs. Enfin, on peut se demander si les vols gouvernementaux, facturés au prix fort, ne vont pas permettre à SpaceX de se positionner en bonne place sur le marché commercial du lancement de satellites, en proposant des prix très attractifs.

http://www.flightglobal.com/articles/2011/04/14/355568/japan-launches-f-x-fighter-rfp.html Japan has formally launched its F-X fighter competition by sending a request for proposals to three potential bidders. Boeing and Lockheed Martin have confirmed a US government representative has received Japan's RFP on behalf of the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and F-35 Lightning II, respectively. A UK representative is also understood to have picked up the RFP for a possible bid by the Eurofighter Typhoon. Each bidder should receive a copy of the solicitation soon. Japan has released the RFP just a few weeks after the country was hit by an earthquake, tsunami and nuclear crisis, leaving an estimated 26,000 people dead and public safety still at risk. Damage caused by the disasters may have included an entire squadron of 18 Mitsubishi F-2B trainers, at least some of which were engulfed by seawater when the tsunami struck Matsushima air base. Meanwhile, Japan has already started decommissioning its fleet of ageing McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom IIs, which it plans to replace with the F-X fighter. Tokyo had originally expressed interest in importing the Lockheed Martin F-22A Raptor, but the US Congress decided not to waive or rescind the export ban on the fifth-generation air superiority fighter. Instead, Japan has launched the F-X competition while funding internal development of the ATD-X stealth demonstrator. Links posted in this story:

ok je vois mieux ce qu'est la mission reco, merci pascal & g4lly

Multi mission, tu largue les bombes sur les objectifs et tu fais la reco, non ?

sur lemamouth, j'ai lu quelque chose qui m'a surpris http://lemamouth.blogspot.com/2011/04/harmattan-replie-la-voilure.html Pourquoi ils n'en auraient pas, il largue bien les AASM a distance et a haute altitude,, le pod reco ng et sous le ventre, ca ne devrait pas etre genant pour un avion omnirole.

ca grogne dans les rangs du tyffie http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/defence/8446855/RAF-training-cuts-leave-Typhoons-idle.html RAF training cuts leave Typhoons idle The Royal Air Force's most advanced warplanes have been unable to drop bombs on Libyan targets because defence spending cuts mean that pilots are not fully trained, The Telegraph can disclose. The Ministry of Defence announced last week that RAF Typhoons would drop bombs on Colonel Muammar Gaddafi's tanks and other ground targets. But so far this has not happened, because the planes' pilots are not considered to be properly trained in ground attacks. In a further embarrassment, laser targeting pods for the Typhoons, which cost £160 million, have been left in packing crates because the RAF has not been able to pay for its pilots to train to use them. Nato leaders have said that more international military power is needed in Libya, as the rebels struggle to make progress against Gaddafi forces. Four of the 10 Typhoons based at Gioia del Colle in southern Italy were to be sent on bombing missions until the RAF realised that pilots were not qualified to drop weapons. RAF commanders, who were "mortified" at the discovery, are rushing to train pilots and fit the Litening pods, which are used in surveillance and navigation, so the Typhoons can carry out ground attacks. The Typhoons, each costing more than £80 million, are the most modern and sophisticated warplanes in the RAF. A National Audit Office report this year said that only eight of their pilots were trained in ground attack operations. It has since emerged that pilots were "out of date" on training, having completed their ground attack courses three years ago. RAF insiders said the MoD failed to fund annual refresher courses. A senior RAF officer said: "The guys are not considered safe to drop live bombs on live targets. "The Typhoon pilots need to conduct a specific training package on recognising and identifying ground targets and then drop a small number of live bombs using the Litening pod to be considered qualified." "This needs to be followed by at least annual refresher training. They have not done this since 2008 so the targeting pods are in storage in crates at RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire." To allow untrained pilots to drop bombs in Libya would be to risk "friendly fire", the officer said. Another RAF source said that to train the Typhoon pilots would "cost a small fortune". The cuts in Typhoon pilot training were ordered by the last government, but the Coalition confirmed the plans in the Strategic Defence and Security Review in October. RAF chiefs told the audit office that to save money, they would not begin training all Typhoon pilots in ground attacks until at least 2014. The Daily Telegraph disclosed last month that the RAF did not have enough trained Typhoon pilots to cover all of its operations, including Libya. This newspaper has also reported that an extra £100 million is being made available for defence, with the MoD backtracking on cutting its fleet of Tornado aircraft. An MoD spokesman said: "We have sufficient Typhoon aircrew with appropriate training for all the systems and weapons to undertake the current tasks."

oki, gloops ! comment faire une guerre sans matos :'( J'espère qu'il vont faire le bilan après cette operation et les manques de moyen sur le theatre d'operation.

on avait pas commandé 40 HAP et 40 HAD ? appui feu et anti char ?

Bref, ce qu'aurait fait les russes avec la gerogie si ils avaient eu les mistral et leur ka-50.

les BPC, peuvent servir de base pour les tigres au large de misratta, misratta est au bord de la mer ? ils peuvent faire de l'appui feu et reperer les cibles pour les frappes.

Tigre, sauf si on en a pas assez ou qu'il y a trop de SA7 dans le coin ?

As tu encore les liens ? ich koenne es lesen, vielen Dank =)

on ne peut pas degager misrata avec les helico de combat pour de l'appui feu qui serait amenés par le mistral/tonnerre. mauvaise idée ?

http://www.flightglobal.com/blogs/the-dewline/ Why am I in lovely Rio de Janeiro this week to cover the Latin America Aerospace and Defense (LAAD) exhibition? The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) timely provided one answer yesterday, reporting that military spending in Latin America last year out-paced the rest of the world. While global outlays increased a measly 1.3% in 2010, Latin America spending jumped 5.8%. True, the region still accounts for only about 4% of global defense spending, but it's one of the few markets expecting long-term, sustained growth. Fueling the boom market is Brazil's growing interests as a regional and world power, and my to-do list for today is to get caught up on all the big stories, including: 1. The three-way competition for Brazil's FX-2 contract. We'll be hearing from each of the competitors -- Gripen, Rafale and Super Hornet -- today, as well as getting an update from the Ministry of Defense. 2. Embraer has scheduled two press conferences today and five overall this week. Topics for each event have not been announced, but I anticipate at least one conference today will provide an update on the pivotal KC-390 tanker-transport program. 3. UAVs are suddenly all the rage in Latin America more than five years after Colombia began flying Scan Eagles against the FARC. Brazil has contracted with Elbit Systems to demonstrate UAV capabilities with the Hermes 450, but the military plans to develop its own systems eventually. We'll be hearing from several new Brazilian UAV companies, including Flight Technology, which is introducing a new family of UAVs today. 4. Brazil's national defense strategy also may drive a new wave of consolidation in this country's aerospace industry. There are rumors that Odebrecht and Mectron will formally announce a partnership this week, uniting one of Brazil's largest engineeering and construction companies with an entrepreneurial aerospace leader. Meanwhile, Embraer will introduce its standalone defense business at the show for the first time. But local competitor and partner Avibras must answer questions about its future viability after cutting hundreds of jobs a few months ago. 5. And I'm always looking for anything new and interesting. I hope to learn more about Brazil's ambitious 14-X hypersonic aircraft, which is allegedly scheduled to fly next year. Updates on Avibras' new cruise missile and Mectron's MAR-1 missile are also on my radar this week.

C'est vrai que ca baisse, - mais il y a le suborbital avec spaceship two de virgin, j'espere que ca marchera, ca donnera une bonne claque, -Il y aussi space x et son projet falcons - Lancement d'un soyouz a kourou - Lancement de vega - Les premiere idées d'ariane 6 - Le projet ATK/Astrium liberty (a suivre), si il y a un financement, ca peut se faire, ca depend de l'europe - Les chinois sont toujours motivés, il devrait bientot lancer leur futur mini station et les rendez vous en orbite, de quoi aiguilloner les usa. coter russe pas grand chose, - cote nasa c'est la mise en sommeil, arret des navettes, mise en place de partenariat, pas de choix très clair pour le futur. - coté russe, pas grand chose mis a part la mission phobos/grunt.

Compte tenu des vols precedent et des statistiques, il avait une chance sur deux de revenir avec sa vostok, fallait en avaoir, on peut lui pardonner d'avoir sauté en parachute. Chapeau Bas dommage qu'il ai eu une fin tragique, il serait encore parmis nous pour temoigner.

Eh be ! Moi aussi je sais faire du air-sol, y a pas que le raffy http://livefist.blogspot.com/2011/04/eurofighter-announces-incremental.html PRESS STATEMENT: "Eurofighter successfully added more air-to-ground capabilites last week when partner company Cassidian Spain achieved the first EGBU-16 precision guided munition avionic release. This accomplishment comes immediately after the first Paveway IV release carried out during February in the UK. Both reinforce the un-matched growth potential of the Eurofighter Typhoon and confirm the built-in multi-role capability of the aircraft."
