Citat:Romania's top national security body has approved a plan to replace Soviet-made MiG-21 LanceR fighters with second-hand U.S. F-16 Falcon jets, the president's office said on its website on Wednesday.

The Romanian government will send a proposal to acquire 24 used F-16 fighters to parliament for a vote after the Supreme Defense Council, headed by President Traian Basescu, approved the plan late on Tuesday.

"Because Romania does not have the financial resources needed to acquire new multi-role planes, the Supreme Defense Council approved the request of the Defense Ministry to acquire 24 F-16 fighters," the president's website said.

The service life of several dozen MiG-21 fighter jets, developed by the Mikoyan-Gurevich design bureau in the mid-1950s and upgraded for the Romanian Air Force by Elbit of Israel and Aerostar S.A. of Romania in the 1990's, expires in 2013.

According to open sources, only 48 MiG-21s are still in service with the Romanian Air Force.

Unofficial media reports earlier said that the U.S. government was ready to give the F-16s for free, if Romania would take responsibility for modernizing them, training the pilots and upgrading flight strips to accommodate the jets.

Romania, a former Warsaw Pact member which joined NATO in 2004, has been seeking closer ties with its more powerful Western allies, especially the United States, to recover from the current deep economic crisis.

In February, Bucharest offered the United States to host U.S. medium-range interceptor missiles as part of revamped shield after U.S. President Barack Obama scrapped the Bush administration plans for a radar and interceptor missiles in the Czech Republic and Poland last year.

Romania's move has irked Russia, which considers the placement of U.S. missile defenses near its borders as a threat to national security.

Do sad, ja mislim, najzanimljiviji tekst o nabavci 24 polovna F-16 za rumunsko RV.

Citat:In this respect, the strategy set out the following steps:
- An initial stage involving the acquisition of 24 used F-16 Block 25 aircraft;
- An intermediate stage involving the acquisition of an additional 24, new-build F-16 aircraft of the Block 50-52 version;
--A final phase involving the service introduction of 24 F-35 JSF aircraft, which will replace the first batch of F-16 aircraft originally purchased.

Pa u sustini nije nemoguce da F35 nasledi F16 u Rumuniji.Iako je u pitanju avion nove generacije ipak se planira da on bude naredni izvozni adut SAD poput F16 dok F22 ostaje samo za par izabranih(nesto kao odnos izmedju F14-15-18 prema F16).Naravno brojke prodatih F35 ce biti neuporedive sa F16

Mnogo je 160+ miliona za novu F-16. Nije najjasnije sta bi islo u paketu ali sta god da ide opet je cena ogromna. Jedino ako deo cene bi Ameri nekako nadoknadili.

Pametno je uradila Rumunija. Samo da odrade korektan remont. Remont F-16 bi mogli da im odrade Izraelci i da im ugrade nesto od svoje opreme (CTF, HMS, Python5, Derby) odlicna masina za malo novca.

Ja sam mislio da ce dobiti blok 30/32.
Taj blok 25 koliko je to matoro i da li je multirole?

Mislim da ce remont/modernizaciju raditi Lokid. Nema smila neko drugi. Dugorocno se vezuju za tu kompaniju.

Blok 25 http://www.f-16.net/f-16_versions_article5.html

Kokpit



Moze da koristi AIM-120 i Maverick. Sasvim dovoljno.

Radar ima modove vazduh-zemlja i vazduh-more. Ali moze da dejstvuje samo na jednu metu i prati deset meta.

Ako radi Lokid onda su ga nadrljali

Ne vidim zasto bi morali da rade kod Lokida. Izrael je u stanju da odradi sve sem da napravi motor.
