18:51 GMT, September 3, 2010 The Denel Aviation CSH-2A Rooivalk combat support helicopter will be released to operational service “within the next eight months†when the first five fully-certified locally-designed and manufactured combat support helicopters will be handed over to the South African Air Force.
Major General Otto Schí¼r (Ret), Denel's Group Executive: Technical says five baseline Rooivalk helicopters will be handed over for operational duties to the SAAF's 16 Squadron in Bloemfontein by no later than the end of March next year. “The remaining six aircraft will be completed and ready for deployment soon after,†says Schí¼r.
This will be the culmination of the Rooivalk project that started its design phase in 1984 and had its first flight already in April 1990. Schí¼r says Denel has received a directive from Armscor informing it that an earlier moratorium on new orders to complete the Rooivalk acquisition programme has now been lifted.
The announcement follows similar news from Brigadier General Norman Minne, the Director Air Force Acquisition in the Defence Materiel Division of the Defence Secretariat earlier this month.
Project Impose '' the Rooivalk programme '' had cost taxpayers at least R8.1 billion in research, development and production costs.
The air force acquisitions director said the Rooivalk fleet was grounded in November “due to some specific issues regarding the engineering support of the aircraftâ€. The aircraft was notably absent from the massive air defence effort to safeguard the June-July soccer World Cup and did not feature in this February's SA Army airborne capability Exercise Young Eagle, as is usually the case.
SAN DIEGO, September 20th, 2010 -- A developmental radio for a revolutionary Internet-Protocol tactical communications network has been delivered ahead of schedule to the U.S. Army AH-64D Integration Team. The Lockheed Martin [NYSE: LMT] team delivered a preliminary engineering development model radio with essential Link-16 functionality to the Airborne and Maritime Fixed Station Joint Tactical Radio System (AMF JTRS) Program Office. The AMF JTRS Program Office then provided the preliminary Joint Tactical Radio to the Apache Longbow AH-64D platform integration laboratory in Mesa, Arizona.
AMF JTRS is an Internet-Protocol network that through software defined radio technology, will connect a diverse range of radios and waveforms to provide joint forces with secure, real-time, interoperable communications.

Quiero decir, recuerdo esa mención al capó de la turbina que se dobla con pisarlo... Si hay una fiesta de verdad, con los malos disparando a modo, el -28 jugaría en una liga distinta. No digo que sea invulnerable, ni ellos tampoco, pero sí que permitiría a los pilotos meterse en un fregado con mucha más confianza de salir vivos, ¿no? Nuestro gatito, sin embargo, tendría que andarse con mucho ojo de lo que le viene desde abajo.

Los rusos y el Apache juegan en una liga distinta, son helos mas pesados (no solo por blindaje sino por carga de armas).
¿Cómo se puede comparar el VCI volante que es un Mil-Mi 28 con nuestro tiger de winnie the pooh?
Si el tigre sólo le queda como opción la salida en línea recta, necesitaría un receptáculo para cirios a santa tecla y mucha fe.

Y no me digas lo de la guerra fría, porque el tigre se diseñó para la misma guerra.
