Testiranje zmaja i ukupnog zivota

Citat:BAE Systems is set to begin its third phase of durability testing on airframes for the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter at the Military Air and Information site located in Brough, East Yorkshire.

The testing aims to evaluate the airframes' ability to handle a variety of flight conditions lasting a total of 8,000 hours, equal to an airframe's lifetime.

The company has previously completed three lifetimes of testing, the equivalent of 24,000 hours of flight testing on the Conventional Take-Off and Landing variant of the airframe and Short Take-Off and Vertical Landing (STOVL) variants at Brough.

BAE Systems Structural and Dynamic Test operations manager Andy Prendergast said: "Reaching two complete lifetimes of testing is an important milestone for our structural test facility at Brough, and demonstrates the proven endurance of the F-35 airframe.

"We have pushed the testing to the limits, ensuring that the F-35 Lightning II aircraft will fly safely and effectively throughout its lifetime of service.

"We will further qualify this by starting a third lifetime of testing."

NELLIS AFB, Nevada --- The U.S. Air Force will deploy four Lockheed Martin Corp F-35 fighter jets to a different U.S. air base this month as it assesses whether the new warplane can be declared combat-ready by August as planned, a senior officer told Reuters on Thursday.

Major General Jay Silveria, who heads the U.S. Air Force Warfare Center at Nellis Air Force Base, said the F-35 jets would be sent from the Nevada base to Mountain Home Air Force Base in southwestern Idaho later this month.

The deployment would include pilots, mechanics, spare parts, equipment and the plane's computerized logistics system to test the ability to deploy the plane for combat, he said.

The test would help the Air Force assess its ability to send the jets to other locations and ensure that they can be repaired and maintained, Silveria said.

"What we’re trying to do is exercise the deployment concepts and to learn from maintenance and learn from (operations)," Silveria said.
