The Mako can use a variety of radars available to the customer


The Mako is a jet trainer, with performance above normal. He is supersonic and has a typical maneuverability of a fighter, and is provided in the project, a number of avionics and weapons that will make flexible roles and missions of this interesting jet. As jet trainer, the two-seater version will be faster, agile and better power than the classical hawk, which already jamss has a version of combat, but without the ability to supersonic flights. Is made for a single-seat version that exclusively perform combat missions, being offered in several countries that require a new game, but who have limited funds to acquire a fighter with better performance. Above: A mockup of the Mako on display at an air show. Notice odesenho inspired solutions for stealth.
Brazil, has received visits from EADS, which offered the Mako for the already canceled FX program of the Brazilian Air Force. This actually ended up being more a marketing ploy by the manufacturer, since in practice the Mako would not be able to survive the competition in the Brazilian FX, because competitors are high performance fighters such as the Su-35 Super Flanker, F- 16 ... etc.. But we have to recogn er that the cost benefit of this game is very good, and can put a considerable improvement in many less developed air forces which could have Mako in a solution of last generation and low custo.O Mako is being designed following guidelines to make it very difficult to detect, and so it can be noted that it resembles slightly the F-35 JSF program of the U.S., which is a stealth aircraft. The configuration of the wings, which have flaperons, jamss ie a flap that used as an aileron in combat situations, give this little hunting, a formidable agility, and so it is expected a certain commercial success for that airplane. The Mako, although not a frontline fighter, can be used effectively in combat tasks, especially in countries experiencing low and medium threats. In countries such as those in South America, I believe, are the most suitable to use this game because they do not see serious tensions, aviation and found these, would have great difficulty surviving in combat against the Mako.
The Mako can use a variety of radars available to the customer's taste. Radars can be installed on the Mako are AN / APG-67 North American, jamss Thales RD-400 Bluehawk French or British, with all multimode. These radars are capable of detctar a plane the size of a hunting approximately 80 km. Above: The cockpit of the Mako will be greatly simplified with 3 large multifunctional liquid crystal displays. Besides facilitating the adaptation of new pilots jamss in training for when you go to the frontline fighters, still allows its use in tactical combat.
The armament of the mako will be composed of air combat missiles, short-range IRIS-T, AIM-9X, ASRAAM missiles beyond medium range AIM-120 Amraam, MICA and Meteor. To attack surface targets, the Mako is compatible with AGM-65 missiles Maverik, Taurus and anti-ship missiles such as the AM-39 Exocet. Still to attack ground targets, MK-82 bombs will be transported in its various versions. A Mauser BK-27 cannon caliber 27 mm, the same as used by the JAS-39 Gripen fighter can be installed if the customer so wish.
The engine Mako has not been decided, but the EJ-200 Typhoon, F-404 and the F18 engines are being studied. Both engines would power consistent with the missions of combat jamss that this game should take when it enters service. In conclusion, the Mako, is a low cost alternative to keep the air defenses in countries with less military budget with an effective jamss defense capability. It is obvious that this project has benefited from technological advances in aircraft industry that could design a small game, which performs tasks normally performed by larger and more expensive aircraft.
Air Air: AIM 9 Sidewinder Missile, Iris T, AIM120 Amraam, Mica, AIM132 ASRAAM.
Valew by increasing the limited knowledge I had about the MAKO. It sure is a great coach, but will compensate by buying him FAB, with a view to modernizing F5E / F? surely not! Our F5 war might be old, but they are veterans! BRAZIL 8:18 PM
Hello Alam. The Mako has a lot more power and a more advanced aerodynamics ensures you greater agility that our F-5. With the right avionics, the Mako is greater firepower than the F-5M Hugs 11:09 PM
Hello Jonathan. In my opinion, today, I think a sucesor AMX would be the F-16 Block 52 +. because it allows the installation of CFT conformal fuel tanks that increase their autonomy notwithstanding the weapons capability. Otherwise, the F-16 has full ability to defend jamss itself if it is intercepted. The Gripen is a fabulous game, but the version with him CFT, not yet flown and not sabems as there
