KFX ..... la scelta .....

Immagine
Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) has been selected as the preferred bidder in South Korea’s proposed KFX fighter programme to build an indigenous fighter.
In an email to Flightglobal, KAI confirmed that Seoul’s Defense Acquisition Procurement Agency (DAPA) has awarded it preferred bidding status, with Lockheed Martin tapped as the foreign technical assistance company (TAC).

LM si troverà dunque in Sud-Corea simultaneamente in una duplice posizione ..... da un lato quella di venditrice di 40 F-35A ..... dall' altro quella fornitrice di assistenza tecnica nella realizzazione del velivolo indigeno di 4.5 generazione .....

Da queste parti la chiamano ..... ubiquità ..... :mrgreen:

KFX (o KF-X) ..... ancora parecchi problemi da risolvere .....
KF-X Moves Forward .....

John A. Tirpak( 4/1/2015)

The Republic of Korea announced with great fanfare its choice of Korean Aerospace Industries, partnered with Lockheed Martin, to develop an indigenous fighter to replace the ROK Air Force’s aging F-4 and F-5 jets, but the deal is still unsettled, industry and government sources said Tuesday.
The KF-X deal is reportedly worth $7.7 billion and is to produce some 120 jets by about 2025.
ROKAF’s 2013 purchase of 40 F-35s involved technology transfer as an offset.
However, government and industry sources said the US government has yet to decide whether all aspects of the F-35 tech transfer desired by ROK for the KF-X—in radar, avionics, and other technologies—is releasable.
At least two months of talks are needed at a government-to-government level before Lockheed is even involved in the discussions, sources said.
Drawings released by the ROKAF show a two-engined KF-X that resembles the F-22, but government and industry officials said it will be more akin to a 4.5 generation aircraft.
The ROK defense ministry said it aims for a KF-X contract to be inked in the first half of this year.
Indonesia is also underwriting some of the development, and presumably will also buy the resulting aircraft.
The winning KAI/Lockheed team, which also collaborates on the T-50 trainer and ROKAF F-16s, was favored over the rival partnership of Korean Air Lines/Airbus.

Airbus Defence & Space this week added South Korea to its growing list of A330 Multi-Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) operators after the nation downselected the tanker type over Boeing’s KC-46A Pegasus and Israel Aerospace Industries’ 767-based design.
According to local reports, South Korea’s Defense Acquisition Program Administration announced the selection decision on Tuesday 30 June, citing the performance and price of the European tanker over the US and Israeli alternatives.

I bastoni fra le ruote ..... ovvero ..... questa proprio non se l' aspettavano ..... :twisted:
South Korea’s plan to develop its indigenous KFX indigenous fighter have hit a roadblock owing to US unwillingness to provide export licences for four core fighter technologies.
In a statement, South Korea’s Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA) says that it failed to obtain export licences in four key technology areas: active electronically scanned array (AESA) radars, infrared search and track (IRST), electro-optical target tracking devices, and jammers.

KFX ..... ulteriori dettagli sul 'gran rifiuto' .....
Only six months after Seoul’s KF-X fighter program took off, the state project valued at about US $15 billion faces a crash over tech transfer issues with the US government.
The KF-X is linked to Lockheed Martin’s sale of 40 F-35As to South Korea under the F-X III program through the Foreign Military sales process.
Lockheed Martin offered to provide 21 technologies required to build the KF-X fighter jet as part of F-X III offset deals.
The US aircraft giant was also selected as the main partner to build KF-X with Korea Aerospace Industries.

In an attempt to snatch up a maritime patrol aircraft deal in South Korea, Swedish defense contractor Saab has opened the possibility of transferring its advanced radar technology for the KF-X, Seoul’s indigenous fighter jet development program, a Saab representative revealed.
The offer was made as Saab is trying to convince the Defense Acquisition Program Administration, or DAPA, to decide open up for a competitive bid the $1.8 billion anti-submarine aircraft acquisition program, which is expected to go to U.S. Boeing offering the P-8A Poseidon.

Jakarta wants to review its involvement in the Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) K-FX fighter programme.
Following recent media reports stating that it would review the initiative, Defence Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu confirmed Jakarta's position in a television interview.
Nonetheless, Ryacudu believes Jakarta should stay in the programme given the money it has already invested.
He added that the development contract for the aircraft, signed between KAI and Indonesian Aerospace in early 2016, was somehow "incomplete", though he provided no details.

Si torna a parlare dell' Indonesia ..... sempre a corto di quattrini .....
Jakarta hopes to renegotiate its partnership with Seoul in the Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) K-FX/I-FX fighter programme.
A team lead by Indonesia’s coordinating minister for political, legal and security affairs Wiranto will head to Seoul to discuss the issue, according the ministry’s website.
A major issue for the Indonesian side is cost, which stems from weakness in the Indonesia rupiah.
The currency has lost a third of its value against the dollar in the last five years, and has performed nearly as poorly against the South Korean won.

Seoul has unveiled a full-sized mockup of the developmental Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) KF-X fighter.
The dispaly shows the KF-X’s six wing hard points carrying mockups of two external fuel tanks, two bombs, and two short-range Diehl IRIS-T missiles.
Its right cheek station carries a mockup of the Lockheed Martin Sniper targeting pod, with four MBDA Meteor missiles on the aircraft’s belly.
Though the aircraft resembles the Lockheed Martin F-35A, it lacks several of the American type’s stealth qualities.
The port for the 20mm cannon is exposed, for example, and the infrared search and track (IRST) sensor protrudes in front of the cockpit canopy, similar to the Eurofighter Typhoon.

KF-X ... un programma a rischio ?
Despite development progress, there are signs of challenges in the jet fighter program, including a potential funding loophole.
That’s because Indonesia, the only international partner of the KF-X, has been backtracking from its original commitment to investing 20 percent of the development costs.
KAI is obliged to pay for 20 percent, and the government is to fund the remainder.
Under a 2016 deal, Indonesia is obliged to pay around $1.3 billion to acquire up to 48 jets called IF-X in Indonesia and get the transfer of fighter jet technologies.
But the South Asian nation has paid only $190 million, some 13 percent of its financial commitment, citing domestic budgetary constraints.
As of July, Indonesia has funding shortfall of $250 million, according to DAPA officials.
Jakarta, instead of cash, has offered to make payment in kind, including the provision of CN235 transport aircraft produced by Indonesian Aerospace, also known as PTDI, under a license.
Indonesia also reportedly asked to renegotiate the terms of deals on the KF-X/IF-X, with a focus on getting more technology transfer from South Korea.
“It’s a thorny issue,” a DAPA source said, asking not to be named.
“The two governments have been in consultations over the funding issue but have yet to narrow a gap.”

South Korea began assembling a prototype of what would be the country's first indigenously developed fighter jet Thursday in a landmark step that means the ambitious project is materializing, the arms procurement agency said.
Under the KF-X project worth 8.8 trillion won (US$7.3 billion), South Korea has been working since late 2015 to develop a home-grown cutting-edge fighter aircraft to replace the Air Force's aging fleet of F-4 and F-5 jets.
Following the design confirmation last year, Korea Aerospace Industries Co. (KAI) got down to the final assembly of a prototype jet at its assembly line in Sacheon, 440 kilometers south of Seoul, according to the Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA).

Indonesia is hundreds of millions of dollars in arrears on its dues for South Korea's next-generation fighter jet development project, even though the country agreed to fund some of the development costs as a partner nation, officials said Sunday.
Indonesia joined the KF-X project in an effort to procure aircraft for its air force and to advance the aerospace industry, and agreed to shoulder 20 percent of the development cost of the 8.8 trillion won (US$7.3 billion) project, or about 1.7 trillion won.
But the Southeast Asian country failed to pay around 500 billion won it was supposed to pay as of end-August, the officials well-versed in the issue said, adding that Indonesia so far has paid 227.2 billion won.

The South Korean Ministry of National Defense (MND) has decided in August to double its fleet of Lockheed Martin F-35 fighter jets.
A total of forty additional “Joint Strike Fighters” will be procured, including 20 F-35B short take-off and vertical landing (STOVL) variant for its light aircraft carrier project known as LPX-II.
According to multiple local media reports quoting officials, South Korean military authorities plan to acquire an additional 40 F-35 Lightning II fighter jets, among which 20 F-35B will be acquired by the Republic of Korea Navy (RoK Navy).
The transfer of F-35B data and technology is seen as essential for designing the future 30,000-tons LPX-II vessel, which should be operational by 2033 ...

Si avvicina il momento della presentazione ufficiale del caccia sud-coreano KF-X ...
L’avionneur coréen KAI Aerospace présentera officiellement le premier prototype du KF-X en avril prochain.
L’évènement sera historique pour le pays et l'industrie aérospatiale.
La Corée du Sud travaille sur le projet de développement d’un avion de combat de nouvelle génération depuis la fin de 2015 pour remplacer la flotte vieillissante d'avions McDonnell F-4 « Phantom » et Northrop F-5 de l'armée de l'air.
Le KF-X est l'un des projets nationaux les plus importants pour remplacer les chasseurs actuels de l'armée de l'air et pour introduire le chasseur de prochaine génération qui peut satisfaire le concept d'opération du futur du champ de bataille.
En outre, KAI travaille sur le développement de l'avionique, ainsi que sur le futur ordinateur de mission et de contrôle de vol.
Le projet de développement est estimé à 7,9 milliards de dollars.

KAI KF-21 Boramae ... già KF-X ...
South Korea has officially named the Korea Aircraft Industries (KAI) KF-X fighter as the KF-21 Boramae (Young Hawk) in a rollout ceremony for the first prototype aircraft on April 9.
The event was attended by South Korean president Moon Jae In, and also by Indonesia’s defense minister, Prabowo Subianto, despite the uncertainty of the Southeast Asian country’s status in the fighter program.
A full-scale mock-up of the KF-X was unveiled in 2019, and KAI has released a number of images as the first aircraft went through the assembly process.
The prototype, serial no. 001, was unveiled with both Korean and Indonesian flags.
During a light show as part of the ceremony, KAI also projected the flags of potential customer countries that the company is courting, including Iraq, Malaysia, Peru, Philippines, Qatar, Senegal, and Thailand.
