ʻO nā mokulele mokulele o ka wā e hiki mai ana

ʻO ka hōʻike mua mua o ka manaʻo mokulele kaua Tempest hou mai BAE Systems i mālama ʻia i kēia makahiki ma ka International Aviation Show ma Farnborough. Hui Kiʻi ʻino

ʻO ka hopena i ʻike nui ʻia i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka Eurofighter Typhoon ke koi nei i nā mea hoʻoholo ma ʻEulopa e hoʻoholo i nā hoʻoholo he nui e pili ana i nā mea hoʻokele mokulele i ka wā pōkole. ʻOiai ʻo ka makahiki 2040, i ka wā e hoʻomaka ai ka haʻalele ʻana o nā mokulele Typhoon, me he mea lā he mamao loa ia, ua manaʻo nui ʻia e hoʻomaka i ka hana ma nā mokulele kaua hou i kēia lā. Ua hōʻike ʻia ka papahana Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II me ia mau hoʻolālā paʻakikī, hiki ʻole ke hoʻopaneʻe, a ʻo ia hoʻi, ua hana i nā kumukūʻai hou e pili ana i ka pono e hoʻonui i ka lawelawe a hoʻonui i ka mokulele F-15 a me F-16 i ka mokulele. ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa.

Ma ka lā 16 o Iulai i kēia makahiki, ma ka Farnborough International Air Show, ua hōʻike kūhelu ʻia ke Kakauolelo Palekana Pelekane ʻo Gavin Williamson i ka manaʻo o kahi mokulele mokulele e hiki mai ana, e kapa ʻia ʻo Tempest. ʻO ka hōʻike ʻana o ka hoʻolālā i hele pū ʻia me ka hoʻolauna ʻana i ka hoʻolālā o ka mokulele kaua Pelekane no nā makahiki e hiki mai ana (Combat Air Strategy) a me ke kuleana o ka ʻoihana kūloko i ka mākeke lima honua. Ua hoʻolaha mua ʻia ke kālā mai ke aupuni Pelekane (ma luna o 10 mau makahiki) he £2 biliona.

Wahi a Gavin, ʻo ka mokulele ka hopena o ka papahana Future Combat Air System (FCAS), i hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o ka Defense Strategic Defense and Security Review 2015, kahi loiloi loiloi o ka palekana a me ka pale o UK. . Wahi a ia, e hoʻoikaika ʻia ka helu o nā mokulele kaua Typhoon, me ka hoʻonui ʻana i ke ola lawelawe o nā mokulele i kūʻai mua ʻia o kēia ʻano mai 2030 a 2040 24 Typhoon Tranche 1 mokulele kaua, i manaʻo ʻia e "hoʻomaha". , pono e hoʻohana ʻia e hana i ʻelua mau pūʻali koa. I kēlā manawa, ua loaʻa iā UK he 53 Tranche 1s a me 67 Tranche 2s ma kona hoʻokuʻu ʻana a hoʻomaka i ka lawe ʻana i ka Tranche 3A mua, i kūʻai ʻia ma ka nui o 40, me kahi koho no kahi 43 Tranche 3Bs hou.

Aia nā hōʻike e hiki ana i ka 2040 e hoʻohana ana ka RAF i ka hui ʻana o nā Typhoon fighters o nā ʻano like ʻole, a ʻo nā mea i loaʻa ma hope e noho mau i ka lawelawe ma hope o ia lā. Ma mua o kēia, pono e hiki i ka mokulele hou-hanauna mua i ka mākaukau kaua mua i nā pūʻulu kaua, ʻo ia hoʻi e hoʻomaka ka hoʻomaka ʻana i ka hana i 5 mau makahiki ma mua.

Ke hoʻomaikaʻi mau ʻia nei ka Eurofighter Typhoon jet fighter, a ʻoiai ʻo ia ka mea hoʻokūkū kiʻekiʻe o ka ea, i kēia lā he mīkini hana nui. I mea e hōʻemi ai i nā kumukūʻai, e hoʻoholo paha ka UK e mālama i ka mokulele Tranche 1 ma ke ʻano he mau mea hakakā, a ʻo nā mana hou, me nā mana ʻoi aku ka nui, e pani i ka Tornado fighter-bombers (kahi o kā lākou mau hana e lawe pū ʻia e ka F-35B. ʻO nā mea uila).

ʻO ka paepae FCAS i haʻi ʻia ma ka loiloi 2015, ua manaʻo ʻia he kaʻa mokulele unmanned i kūkulu ʻia ma luna o ka ʻenehana ʻike i hoʻopilikia ʻia i hoʻomohala ʻia me Farani (e pili ana i nā mea hōʻike ʻenehana BAE Systems Taranis a me Dassault nEUROn). Ua kūkākūkā pū lākou me ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i ka hoʻomohala hou ʻana o nā ʻōnaehana e kū nei, a me ke kākoʻo ʻana i ka hana ma kā lākou kahua ponoʻī, pono e hōʻoia i ka paʻa ʻana o ka UK i ke kūlana koʻikoʻi ma ka honua honua i ka hoʻomohala ʻana a me ka hana ʻana i nā mokulele mokulele kaua. .

Pono e hōʻike ʻia ʻo Tempest ma kona ʻano hope i 2025 a hiki iā ia ke hana ma kahi kahua kaua paʻakikī a koʻikoʻi. Manaʻo ʻia e loaʻa i nā ʻōnaehana anti-access ākea a e piʻi nui aʻe. Aia i loko o ia mau kūlana e holo ai ka mokulele kaua o ka wā e hiki mai ana, a no laila ke manaʻoʻiʻo nei i mea e ola ai, pono lākou e ʻike ʻole, me ka wikiwiki a me ka maneuverability. ʻO nā hiʻohiʻona o ka paepae hou e komo pū me nā mana avionics kiʻekiʻe a me nā mea hiki ke hoʻouka kaua i ka ea, ka maʻalahi a me ka launa pū me nā paepae ʻē aʻe. A ʻo kēia mau mea a pau ma ke kumukūʻai kūʻai a me ke kumukūʻai hana e ʻae ʻia i kahi ākea o nā mea loaʻa.

ʻO ka hui e mālama ana i ka papahana Tempest e hoʻokomo i ka BAE Systems ma ke ʻano he hui nui e pili ana i nā ʻōnaehana kaua holomua a me ka hoʻohui ʻana, ʻo Rolls-Royce ke kuleana no ka hoʻolako ʻana i ka mana mokulele a me ka hoʻoulu ʻana, ʻo Leonardo ke kuleana no nā mea ʻike kiʻekiʻe a me nā avionics, a me MBDA ka mea e hoʻolako i nā mokulele kaua. .

Pono e ʻike ʻia ke ala e hele ai i kahi kahua hou e ka ulu ʻana o nā ʻāpana e hoʻohana mua ʻia ma nā mokulele kaua Typhoon, a ma hope e hoʻololi mālie i nā mokulele Tempest. Pono kēia e mālama i ka hana alakaʻi o ka Eurofighter Typhoon ma ke kahua kaua o kēia wā, ʻoiai i ka manawa like e maʻalahi ai ka hana ʻana ma ka pae o ka hanauna e hiki mai ana. Aia kēia mau ʻōnaehana i ka hōʻike mahiole hou ʻo Striker II, ka BriteCloud kit pale ponoʻī, ka Litening V optoelectronic kiaʻi a me nā pods hoʻopaʻa ʻia, ke kikowaena radar multi-role me kahi antenna nānā uila uila, a me ka ʻohana Spear o nā missiles air-to-surface. . nā pōkā (Cap 3 a me Cap 5). ʻO ke kumu hoʻohālike o ka mokulele kaua Tempest i hōʻike ʻia ma Farnborough e hōʻike ana i nā hopena ʻenehana nui e hoʻohana ʻia ma ka paepae hou, a me nā hiʻohiʻona pili o ka mokulele.
