Published photos reveal the features of the new F-15EX fighter

72

New photos of the newest American fighter F-15EX have been published on social networks, showing a number of differences between the aircraft and its earlier modifications.

The F-15EX pilots have at their disposal the new JHMCS II helmet-mounted systems, as well as displays from Elbit Systems of America. The fighter is equipped with a full glass cockpit equipped with a multifunctional color display. The F-15EX's onboard systems are controlled by the Advanced Display Core Processor II, the most powerful processor in the history of the fighter.



The aircraft's radar station consists of the main radar in the bow of the AN / APG-82 (V) 1, as well as three flat antennas, one of which is located behind the cockpit, and two more - under the forward fuselage.

The F-15EX photo clearly shows the new engine nozzles, EPAWSS electronic warfare fairings, new symmetrical fairings at the top of the vertical tail fins, and possibly telemetry antennas. The fighter's infrared traps are up 50 percent.


But despite technical The "advancement" of the new American fighter, according to the veteran of the US Marine Corps Alex Hollings, is unlikely to be able to emerge victorious from the confrontation with the Russian Su-57 and the Chinese J-20 of the fifth generation. However, in his Sandboxx blog, the American military calls the F-15EX "the coolest fourth generation fighter on the planet."

      For some desperate patriots of the Russian Federation, who in polemical fervor like to ask - "What did your petty Israel create in aviation?" There is a pleasant surprise in the text: Elbit Sistems of America, a subsidiary of the Israeli firm Elbit Sistems, is actively involved in the production of the American F-15EX fighter. From myself, I will only add - it is far from only Elbit that works with leading US arms manufacturers, and far from only the F-15EX is the result of this cooperation. hi

        The Israeli Galil assault rifle was developed by the Israeli designer Israel Galili, born Israel Balashnikov, based on the Kalashnikov assault rifle.
        This is all you need to know about the Israeli military-industrial complex.
        Everyone can see the image of the Galili machine on Wikipedia. And laugh.

          The Israeli Galil AR automatic rifle was developed on the basis of the Finnish Valmet Rk 62 machine gun, and its creator Israel Balashnikov, despite the Russian sound of the surname, has never been to Russia, he was born in 1923. in mandated Palestine.
          Well, some Vietnamese who prefer Israeli Galil to Russian AK can laugh. lol

                But your Galil is all one to one AK.

                    Baby, Galil certainly did not hold, but with AKM I had to run for two months in the Putilov camps in 1978.
                    As you argue, it is obvious and common knowledge that the Galil is an AK clone. What are you trying to prove - I don't understand.

                          It is interesting that almost all of their ministers were involved in corruption, some cadres even for the second time.

                          An example is a minister, he can generally be elected to his post until he dies.

                          Notice how they are preparing the next aggression. They arrange things in such a way that they are threatened and they have nowhere else to go but to chop off a piece from someone else's territory.

                          They prepare thoroughly, they do not spare time for preparation.

In addition, from the beginning of the 60s, Jews were diligently cleaned out from secure facilities, so those who came to Israel with the beginning of mass repatriation in the 90s simply did not have access to any technological secrets of the Soviet military-industrial complex.

            The Israeli Galil AR automatic rifle was developed on the basis of the Finnish Valmet Rk 62 assault rifle,

            And "Valmet", in turn, was developed on the basis of the Kalashnikov assault rifle license purchased from Russia. This is a known fact. Then the Israelis "borrowed" this technology from the Finns.

I note that during the development process in Israel, major changes were made to the design and production technology, which significantly improved the quality of the rifle and its ergonomics.

                        Here we have reduced the distance from the front sight to the rear sight - yes. Which reduced the aim of the shot.
                        And if you are talking about a body kit, then the AK was a machine gun for a different army. Now the latest models have gone from the former primitivism. The army has become different, the military doctrine has become different.

                          As a result, preference was given to the Galili version, which was based on the design of the Finnish Valmet Rk 62 assault rifle (a copy of the AK), the production license of which was purchased by Israel and which itself was a licensed version of the Kalashnikov assault rifle.

                          The repurchase of a license, licensed technology, bypassing the one who sold the first license, is considered plagiarism all over the world (The copyright law).

To begin with, you accuse the Israelis of plagiarism, declare that you are not able to find information that the license for Galil was acquired, then, having made sure that this statement is erroneous, make unfounded claims to the very fact of the sale. And where is the acute reaction on my part?

                          Was that plagiarism? Was.

                          The "license" was obtained from a legal entity that does not have the right to issue a license. What kind of license is it then ???
                          So there is no license as such?
                          No.

                          What kind of “erroneousness of this statement” are you still talking about? You just, with your "links", proved the opposite, which, in fact, you admitted, turning the arrows to the Finns:

                          All claims to the Finns ...

                          And although your sixth sense, at the level of "highley like", about the violation of "international law" tells you something, you cannot consider this an argument.

                          The fact of illegal sale / purchase of a license is obvious. You disputed it, and you lost the dispute. Let's stop here.

                          Another thing: my personal attitude to this matter.

                          My personal lack of claims to this fact is explained personally by my understanding and vision of the situation.

                          Personally, I understand that everyone is actually doing plagiarism like this. But this, again, is just my personal opinion.

                          Why did you get the idea that the sale was illegal, does your proletarian instinct tell you? wink It was illegal for the Tupolev design bureau to copy the American B-29 bomber at the direction of Stalin and then release this copy as Tu-4. But, for example, the production in Russia of a licensed copy of an old Israeli UAV Searcher under the proud name Outpost is entirely within the law.

                          Buying in violation of the rules for reselling a license to a third party is just as illegal as selling. Plagiarism.

                          Judging by the nickname you have chosen, it is you who are the proletarian, which, by the way, over and over again, is confirmed by the corresponding intellectual level of your "emotional" posts. )

                          We are not talking about this case now, but even if this is so, it does not in any way negate the fact of plagiarism of the Israeli machine gun. So don't get distracted from the topic.

                          We are talking about the fact of plagiarism in this particular case, and not about the legal possibility to prohibit this transaction. She, in any case, at that time, simply did not exist.

                          Of course, hypothetically, such a possibility could exist if at that moment, all 3 countries participating in this "atrocity" were bound by some kind of common agreement (WTO, GATT, TRIPS, etc.), and in case of disobedience would be subject to some kind of legal sanctions.

                          This is not always feasible even today. Not all countries are bound by such obligations. This allows, for example, the same China, openly, without hiding, to copy other people's technologies, "rethink" them, and sell them further. So that..)

        According to the article, this aircraft has Israeli displays, this is not the most critical component and it does not disprove the fact that you do not have aircraft of your own production. And not only aircraft. You have German Dolphin submarines, your largest ships , the Saar 5 corvettes were made for you by the Americans. All that you could do on your own was missile boats. Even your Merkava tank consists of 28 percent imported components, including an American engine and transmission, you make a gun for it under license Russia, on the other hand, manufactures the entire range of weapons for itself and for sale on its own, so you have something to strive for so as not to depend on the mood of foreign suppliers.

            - I can say that your opinion on this issue is 150 years old. I once explained to my opponent the erroneousness of such an approach on another thread, citing as an example the principle of operation of one of the Israeli defense industry enterprises I know firsthand. I will repeat myself. Israeli engineers have developed a very popular device and, having received an order from the army, founded their own enterprise for its production. Components designed according to their requirements are manufactured in Germany, Sweden, Switzerland and South Korea. Each of the component manufacturers selected on a competitive basis is one of the world leaders in their segment, therefore the quality of their products is the highest. Components arrive in Israel, where the firm's specialists assemble products from them, which are then sent to customers in Israel and abroad. And it is impossible to achieve such quality by making every last screw on our own, because the quality of Russian products for the corresponding purpose is much lower.

          Is that why some modifications of the T-90 have a French thermal imager, some warships have German or Chinese diesel engines, and are the crystals for the Elbrus processor used in military equipment produced in Taiwan?

            French thermal imagers have already been replaced by domestic ones, produced by the Vologda Optical and Mechanical Plant. Judging by the fact that the series of corvettes 20385 was extended, German diesel engines were also replaced, Chinese diesel engines for Buyans are rather a temporary solution, they will also be changed due to their unreliability, in these matters nothing is impossible for us
