(so an aircraft listed as having the AIM-9B can take AIM-9Es, AIM-9Ls etc. Depending on the period.) -Prototype aircraft have ben given an armament by the author – notably the Su-47 and Grumman X-29. Both have been armed as light interceptors or air superiority aircraft. -Aircraft are sorted according to their widespread usage, rather than their exact introduction year. For example, the F-16 and F-14, while both being introduced in the mid to late 1970s, are listed on the 1980s list rather than 1970s. Because this aircraft list will be used with the Mercenary Air Campaign, we decided to sort aircraft this way. AIRCRAFT DATA LISTS The following sections will contain all the aircraft data, ordnance and ground assets needed to play Missile Threat. There will also be short introductory sections for each conflict describing some of the specifics and providing special rules if necessary. The Aircraft Data Lists will look like this: Ordnance Lists will look like this: 4 Aircraft Notes Some aircraft have specific performance aspects that allow them to fulfill certain tasks or perform in certain ways. These are as follows: ASW (Anti Submarine Warfare) aircraft are capable of attacking submarines, as well as Naval Vessels. AEW and AWACS shows the type of radar an aircraft is equipped with. ECM shows the quality of Electronic Countermeasures the aircraft is equipped with. FAC (Forward Air Controller) allows an aircraft to nominate ground targets to other aircraft. Fast Climb aircraft can 1 altitude during in a climb without losing any speed. They can also climb during a Cannon Defensive or Last-Ditch Missile Defense, giving a -1 to damage. Fast Climb(2) aircraft can gain 2 altitude during a climb, without losing any speed. They also have advantages when making Defensive Maneuvers. Fast Climb(3) aircraft can gain 3 altitude during a climb, without losing any speed. They also have increased advantages when making Defensive Maneuvers. Camera allows an aircraft to conduct reconnaissance. Camera (Radar) allows an aircraft to use its radar range instead of the 12" visual range for reconnaissance. This represents ELINT and long range reconnaissance cameras. No Radar GS No Radar Gun Sight. These aircraft are -1 to all damage rolls for cannons. Rugged aircraft can take 2 points of damage before being destroyed. Once they are damaged a 3rd time, they are then considered to be destroyed. TWS aircraft can lock on to 2 targets for a single action, to a total of 4 targets. They can also ripple fire missiles at separate targets. Powerful aircraft can ignore 1 speed loss per turn. They can also gain 1 speed per action in a level flight. Powerful aircraft also get bonuses when making Defensive Maneuvers. Powerful(2) aircraft can ignore 2 speed loss per turn. They can also gain 2 speed per action in a level flight. Powerful(2) aircraft also get increased bonuses when making Defensive Maneuvers. UAV aircraft do not require a pilot – they are Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. Ordnance Notes AA Air to Air only missile. Speed: 7" unless otherwise noted. ARM Anti Radiation Missile: For attacking radar sites on the ground. Requires the target to be have an active radar in order to guide and/or inflict a hit. ASM Anti-Ship Missile: For attacking Naval Vessels and surfaced submarines only. ATGW Air-to-Ground Weapon: Ground attack only. Speed: 6" unless otherwise noted. GBU Guided Bomb Unit: Laser Guided Bombs. HOJ or "Home-on Jam" missiles treat targets with ECM(3), ECM(4) or ECM(5) as if they had a radar lock on them, even if no radar lock is provided by the aircraft launching the missile.

  • Argentina to Sign for AESA-Equipped Kfir Fighters. Argentina Is Expected
    50SKYSHADESImage not found or type unknown- aviation news ARGENTINA TO SIGN FOR AESA-EQUIPPED KFIR FIGHTERS News / Manufacturer Image not found or type unknown Argentina is expected to sign a contract on 10 November covering the purchase of 14 Kfir Block 60 fighters. The nation's air force opted to acquire upgraded examples of the Israel Aerospace Industries-produced combat aircraft, which have been non-operational for two decades. © 2015-2021 50SKYSHADES.COM — Reproduction, copying, or redistribution for commercial purposes is prohibited. 1 IAI had been offering a Block 60 version of the roughly 40-year-old Kfir design, powered by a GE Aviation J79 engine. The company says the powerplant will be supplied in a "zero-hour" condition after a complete overhaul, with replacement required after 1,600 flight hours. The upgraded fighter also will be fitted with an Elta Systems EL/M-2032 active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar, and use open architecture avionics that will allow the customer to instal other systems. Elta says the sensor provides an all aspect, "look-down shoot-down" performance, and will support simultaneous air-to-air and strike missions, with the ability totrack up to 64 targets. Flightglobal's Fleets Analyzer database records the Argentine air force as currently operating a combined fleet of 37 jet fighters, spread across aged Dassault Mirage III and Mirage 5, Douglas A- 4 and IAI Nesher airframes. The nation's pending acquisition will see it join Colombia, Ecuador and Sri Lanka in operating the Kfir. © 2015-2021 50SKYSHADES.COM — Reproduction, copying, or redistribution for commercial purposes is prohibited.

  • Design and Development
    IAI Nesher From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Argentine Air Force Dagger, Jujuy Airport, 1981 Role: Multi-role fighter aircraft Manufacturer: IAI First flight: 1972 Introduced: 1971 Retired: 1977 (Israel) Status : Active service Primary users Israeli Air Force Argentine Air Force Number built: 61 (51+10) Developed from: Dassault Mirage 5 The Israel Aircraft Industries Nesher (Hebrew: ()*, "Eagle") is the Israeli name of the Dassault Mirage 5 multi-role fighter aircraft. Most were later sold to the Argentine Air Force as Daggers, and later upgraded as Fingers. Design and development Dassault Aviation had developed the Mirage 5 at the request of the Israelis, who were the main foreign customers of the Mirage III. The Israeli Air Force (IAF) wanted the next version to have less all-weather capability in exchange for improved ordnance carrying capacity and range as the weather in the Middle East is mostly clear. The French government arms embargo on Israel (on the eve of the Six Day War and afterwards) prevented the first 30 Mirage 5 aircraft (which were already paid for by Israel) plus optional 20 from being delivered and cut off support for the existing Mirage IIICJ fleet. Officially, Israel built the aircraft after obtaining complete blueprints. However, some sources claim Israel received 50 Mirage 5s in crates from French Air Force (AdA), while the AdA took over the 50 aircraft originally intended for Israel.[1][2] The Nesher was identical to the Mirage 5, except for the use of some Israeli avionics, a Martin-Baker zero-zero ejector seat, and provisions for a wider range of AAMs (Air-to-Air Missiles), including the Israeli Shafrir heat-seeking missile.

Interrupted Innovation: Innovation System Dynamics in Latecomer Aerospace Industries Daniel Vertesy and Adam Szirmai1 UNU-MERIT November 2010 Abstract In this paper we analyse the role of sectoral innovation systems in the emergence and catch-up of aerospace industries in latecomer economies. We argue that the aerospace sector is characterized by a process of interrupted innovation. Competitive pressures and the cyclical nature of the industry not only require shifts in the direction of innovation and changes in the production system, but also periodical restructuring of the whole sectoral system of innovation. Aerospace manufacturing requires advanced technological capabilities at the earliest stages of the emergence of the industry. Producers immediately need to comply with high international technology, quality and safety standards. Stage models of gradual technological upgrading in the process of catch up are therefore not appropriate to analyse the evolution of this industry in latecomer economies. The model of interrupted innovation developed in this paper provides an alternative perspective.
