JASDF Mix?

[swerve]

Sorry, we've seen nothing to suggest that Japan is seriously interested in the Typhoon. Nor, that such arrangement as you described would be acceptable even if it was. As a matter of fact the History of Japanese Fighter Procurement and its Strategic Alliance with the United States. Makes purchasing the "Typhoon" as highly unlikely.


So, until I see an official order for Typhoons from Japan. I personally consider the possibility as remote at best.


Again in MY OPINION.

Your completely uninformed, & often proved wrong opinion. Your opinion is routinely at variance with provable facts, such as your claim that Randy Cunningham had never been convicted of anything - a claim you supported by reporting a personal meeting with him, despite him already having been in jail for over a year at the time. Or your opinion that the Gripen NG would have the Vixen 500E radar.

I note that you have, yet again, responded in pure troll mode. Having been presented with cogent arguments which you lack the wit or knowledge to answer, you simply ignore them, & repeat your "opinion", as if it trumps all facts.

I ask again: will you answer any of the points above? If not, I suggest you back out of this debate, since you are refusing to make any contribution to it, but are, instead, throwing clogs in the looms.

But "early" in F-35 production is late compared to possible Typhoon deliveries (that line is planned to hit 230 per year when?), & does not meet the Japanese requirement for local production.

My reference to the F-35 time-line had nothing to do with the Typhoon, just the F-22EX.

The buy time-line from 2013 through 2020 (buy-years with delivery ~24 months later) goes:
2013=132 (LRIP7)
2014=199 (LRIP8)
2015=230
2016=231
2017=230
2018=219
2019=181
2020=159.

These numbers are BEFORE the increased buy proposed by Gates this year. No definitive version of that scheduled has been released.

What a joke.................First, I never made any such claims about "Randy Cunningham and "DARE YOU" to provide a source! (BTW I've met Randy Cunningham have you?)

Second, for the members that don't know what "Swerve" is talking about in regards to the Gripen NG. I will be happy to enlighten them. When it was reviled that Selex and SAAB was going to jointly develop a New AESA Radar. They claimed that the new radar would incorporate the "FRONT END of the Vixen 500E and the BACK-END of the current PS-05/A Radar in the Gripen. Well, in short the Vixen Model Number (500 in this case) usually reflects the number of T/R Modules. So, at that time I believed that was the number carried by the new AESA Radar. Especially, with no official source that provide contrary information. Well, to make a long story short. Later on SAAB clarified that the new radar did in fact carry ~ 1000 T/R Modules. At which time I conceded the issue.

Oh, god how terrible..............

Personally, it sounds like you can't win the debate. So, you bring up other debates fictional or not. Trying to discredit me...........

"REALLY YOUR REMARKS ARE IN VERY POOR TASTE AND SUCH REMARKS HAVE NO PLACE ON THIS FORUM"

I

note that you have, yet again, responded in pure troll mode. Having been presented with cogent arguments which you lack the wit or knowledge to answer, you simply ignore them, & repeat your "opinion", as if it trumps all facts.

So, its not fact that Japan has purchased only American Fighters since the 1950's? Nor, is it fact that Japan requires its fighters must be produced in country and under license??


Please, you have provided no "facts" what so ever! While, I've provided a "History" of facts.

I ask again: will you answer any of the points above? If not, I suggest you back out of this debate, since you are refusing to make any contribution to it, but are, instead, throwing clogs in the looms.

I ask again can you provide a source that supports the Japan is seriously interested in the Typhoon or your grand scheme to produce a number of Typhoons in the UK to be followed by examples constructed in Japan.


WAITING...............
