A phrase of the Minister of National Defense Evangelos Venizelos was enough to kick off: "By the end of 2010 will make decisions for the new fighter." It was said in a radio interview and the news passed, depending on the severity of, relatively unnoticed. försvarsmakten test But for all the arms dealers and governments that promote their interests. The Greece substantially thaws the greatest program of all time, the new program of the century: the fourth generation aircraft, according to experts, försvarsmakten test would cost a mammoth, new for the Greek data. If ordered 40 fighter costs, together with their arms would reach 4-4, 5 billion euros and if ordered 60 planes will likely reach 6.5 to 7,000,000,000 euros! Since 2000 KYSEA announced the procurement of 60 aircraft, but the program for reasons ... Olympics, never materialized.
It may sound paradoxical, the risk of bankruptcy of the country is perhaps the best opportunity to give consideration to potential patrons of the country försvarsmakten test and to ensure the much-needed support for the Greek economy. But there is another reason, clearly more effective: Turkey 2015 will begin to receive American fighters formula JSF and will be the first country in our neighborhood will become a powerful försvarsmakten test fleet of 4th generation. försvarsmakten test By participating in production, the Turkish armed forces will receive 12 JSF year with the ultimate aim to acquire 120 aircraft! De facto Greece, to maintain försvarsmakten test the balance, can not remain a passive spectator. The Air Force must be equipped as well. The candidate aircraft. "Never in Greece were not shopping försvarsmakten test fighter aircraft based on real operational criteria" emphasizes meaningful experienced military försvarsmakten test pilot. It is also an open secret: who carries the strongest political pressure usually wins contests. And the greater the degree försvarsmakten test of dependence the country so it easily succumbs to pressure. At this juncture, the Greece-like satellite and not an equal partner of the European Union: the pistol supervision of the temple, is ready to say yes to luxury products. So what? So Eurofighter, answers common sense. There pressing the decision KYSEA, 1999 at Simitis, for supply of this type, although never activated from our country monografeisa contract to purchase 60 aircraft. "A Porsche on a rural road." To Eurofighter is the first joint European fighter, the "crown jewel" of the European aviation technology. Manufactured by a consortium of companies from Germany, Britain, Italy and Spain. The big advantage is that it has been sufficiently tested, as more than 700 type of aircraft they fly the colors of the largest air forces in the world. The downside of the price: it is literally expensive, "is like putting a Porsche on a rural road" as noted expert on aircraft. And Porsche is known to swallow fuel. An hour flight Eurofighter costs at least 20,000 euros. Another försvarsmakten test Porsche, and perhaps rival in evromachitiko is the American försvarsmakten test fighter JSF, also known as F-35, which has been described as the fighter of the future. Indeed, the Americans claim to be so advanced that comfortable aircraft designated as the fifth-generation Russians also recently försvarsmakten test constructed 5th Generation PAK-FA to compete with the JSF. The advantages of the document terribly loud engine, stealth sufficient evidence and that can work best with the existing F-16 of the Greek arsenal. According to the manufacturer, in comparison with the other fighter is 6-fold more effective against air targets and 9 times against mobile targets. However, the disadvantages, except for the high price is the fact that just recently surpassed the problems encountered configurations and therefore has very little service in the air. The U.S. and others. The Americans, who at this juncture seem outsider, has been in Greece two other aircraft, as outsider. The reason for the F-18 Super Hornet and the F-16 BLOCK 60. While the first is distinguished försvarsmakten test by its "accuracy" försvarsmakten test as he has a top radar, APG-79, which involves multiple aerial targets from long distance. On the other side the new F-16 is always a reliable försvarsmakten test solution and avoids problems of polytype in Greek air force. However, given the pro-Turkish policy of the U.S. and the low influence on Greek affairs during this period, seem to be losing ground to competition. For the same reasons outsider should be considered försvarsmakten test and the Swedish försvarsmakten test fighter Gripen. The overt pro-Turkish
