Breathing new life into Orions 2016 - 04 - 01 -

www.shephardmedia.com

Lacking the funds to purchase new and bespoke maritime patrol aircraft, two Latin American militaries are looking to extend the life of their current fleet of legacy Lockheed Martin P-3 Orion aircraft. Chile and Brazil have operated the sub-hunting aircraft for a number of years now and, not wanting to lose the vital capability offered by the P-3, are in the process of upgrading. The Chilean Navy has already contracted Lockheed Martin to upgrade its fleet of two P-3s, as part of a mid-life upgrade (MLU) package, which involves refitting the aircraft with a new centre wing section and outer wings, as well as new horizontal stabilisers. Due to the adverse conditions they fly in and its operational flying characteristics, the P-3 Orion is prone to corrosion and fatigue, particularly on the areas close to where the wing meets the fuselage. Lockheed Martin says after an MLU and the addition... Lire la suite

Airbus A400M military transport plane hits more trouble 2016 - 04 - 01 - www.dw.com

The torturous development process of the A400M transport plane has been extended yet again after Germany’s Defense Ministry admitted that it had been hit more technical problems. Its latest delivery date is now in doubt. Germany’s list of military equipment calamities was extended once again on Friday, when the country’s biggest newspaper reported that the new European transporter plane, the Airbus A400M Atlas, had faulty engines. The “Bild” newspaper reported that parts of the propeller engines could not cope with extreme temperatures and that individual parts of the engine were found to have “material flaws.” The newspaper also claimed that one engine on a British A400M had cut out during a flight, though this had not yet happened to the three planes already owned by Germany’s air force. The Defense Ministry confirmed the report on Friday… Lire la suite
