SINGAPORE — There is “enough of a runway” for any technical glitches on the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter jets to be solved before they are delivered to Singapore around 2030 — assuming the sale is approved, Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen has said.
“Just by the sheer number of orders that are already placed and… will have to be delivered, the glitches will have to be solved and will be solved,” Dr Ng told reporters last Friday (June 28) at an interview in Murai Camp to mark Singapore Armed Forces Day, which falls on Monday.
The jet’s safety has been in the spotlight after a crash earlier this year, and reports of glitches and flaws that could risk pilot safety and hamper mission success.
In April, a Japanese F-35A aircraft — one of three variants of the F-35 — crashed into the Pacific Ocean during a training mission, prompting Japan to ground its fleet temporarily.
Separately, flaws with the jet reportedly included pressure increases in the cockpit — the compartment where the pilot sits — causing pain in the ear and sinus.
Singapore’s Defence Ministry (Mindef) — which plans to buy four F-35 aircraft, with the option for another eight — said in the wake of the Japanese plane crash that it would ensure the F-35 was “safe to operate” before acquiring it.
Asked how Mindef would further allay public concerns over the jet’s safety, Dr Ng said on Friday: “We were in touch with the agencies and authorities to have a good analysis.
“But assuming that we get approval for the F-35s, you are talking about a delivery in the 2030 timeframe. So that is enough of a runway for technical glitches to be solved.”
The F-35s were identified as the most suitable replacement for Singapore’s ageing F-16 aircraft, which will become obsolete after 2030.
The plan to buy the jets, announced in January, is subject to approval from the United States Congress, as required under American law. Dr Ng said Singapore took its time to arrive at a conclusion and issue a letter of request to the US to acquire the aircraft.
The F-35, dubbed the world’s most advanced fighter jet, has three variants: A, B and C. Reports had suggested that Singapore was interested in the B model, which can take off from shorter runways and land like a helicopter.
“The F-35s are already in operation, so we think that it is a platform that we can commit to at this point in time,” Dr Ng added.

BalasHapusXixixi
Berarti yen sesuk-sesuk pesen sepatu "brodo", le nganter nganggo drone yo master πππ
Hapus3 biji dibeli untuk uji coba.
HapusKalo puas nambah 100 biji lagi.
100 + 3 = 103 biji.
Jarak tempuh drone ini adalah 1200 km, itu jarak tempuh pulang pergi.
Kalo sekali jalan 1200 / 2 = 600 km.
Luas wilayah yang dapat dijangkau :
600 x 600 x 3,14 = 1.130.400 km2.
Luas wilayah RI termasuk ZEE dan batas kontinen adalah 8.300.000 km2 menurut menko maritim pak luhut.
8.300.000 / 1.130.400 = 7,3425336164 posisi atau skuadron.
1 skuadron = 4 operasional + 4 siaga + 4 maintenance + 2 cadangan = 4+4+4+2 = 14 biji per skuadron.
7,3425336164 x 14 = 102,79547063 dibulatkan 103 biji.
Jadi 103 drone ini walaupun dibeli dan dioperasikan garuda, sambil antar cargo bisa nyambi jadi pesawat surveillance di masa damai, saat bencana untuk drop logistik ataupun di masa perang dimobilisasi jadi pesawat bomber...
Negara lain sudah mendarat di bukan disini hanya perencanaan menyusuri aliran sungai....

BalasHapusWhy can't the US make its own weapon factories instead of buying from corporations?I really wonder why sakit.info
BalasHapusThose corporations actually run the US factories. Even the ones from abroad have to make their stuff in US factories if the want to get defence contracts.
HapusThe answer is politic.
HapusUS want to tied up their so called "allies" with a chance offering other countries to jointly making a new jet. As far as I know F35 is in the lower level compare to US Made F22, means US basically can built the whole F35 process by themself.
At the end of the day, all the countries dat have cooperation with US will always rely and depends on US and it will surely close other joint venture with US rival like Russian or China.
Habis la Malay ni,f35 Singapore nak ayam ayamkan Malaysia....kesian..π
