Prizemljili 15 F-35
15 F-35 Models Grounded Due to Wiring Issue
Citat:The US Air Force has ordered the grounding of 13 F-35A models, as well as a pair of Norwegian F-35As, following the discovery of "peeling and crumbling" coolant tube insulation.
The issue appears to have been with a supplier of coolant lines, which are installed in the wings of the jet. During a routine maintenance check, it was discovered that the insulation on the lines were in some cases decomposing, which left residue in the fuel itself, according to a release from the Norwegian government on the grounding.
The issue has been traced back to the insulated coolant tubes manufactured by one particular provider that have only been installed in the wing fuel tanks of the 15 aircraft — 10 from Hill Air Force Base, Utah, two US and two Norwegian F-35As at Luke AFB, Ariz., and one plane at Nellis AFB, Nev.

Navy Selects First Squadron for F-35C Transition
Citat:The Navy has selected the first operational strike fighter (VFA) squadron that will fly the F-35C Lightning II strike fighter.
VFA-147, based at Naval Air Station Lemoore, Calif., is slated to become the first carrier-based squadron to operate the F-35C. The squadron currently operates the F/A-18E Super Hornet strike fighter.
The announcement was made Sept. 10 during an aviation panel at the annual Tailhook Association convention in Reno, Nev., by Cmdr. Timothy F. “Bo” Locke, the F-35 requirements officer for the director of Air Warfare in the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations.
VFA-147, known as the Argonauts, will make the transition in 2018, with the goal of entering the deployment cycle in 2020.
The initial operational capability for the F-35C is scheduled for August 2018.

Fuel line glitch hits 57 F-35As

Citat:“This insulation could, under certain circumstances, obstruct fuel flow in and out of various fuel tanks,” the JPO says. “Thorough review of production records indicates the problem is limited to only 57 F-35A aircraft.”
Citat:The maintenance issue will also affect 42 production line aircraft, which the USAF and partner nations have not yet accepted, a USAF spokeswoman told FlightGlobal. Those partner nations include Norway, Japan, Israel and Italy, a Lockheed spokesman confirmed. Lockheed says the supply chain issue should not affect negotiations with the USAF or Norway.

Američki general Tod Volters, vrhovni komandant NATO vazdušnih snaga, tvrdi da najmoderniji američki avion F-35 "lajtning" u svakom pogledu nadmašuje ruske "suhoje". Potpuno smo ubeđeni da će naši avioni pete generacije promeniti situaciju na evropskom nebu, s obzirom da su potpuno zastrašujući. 'Lajtinig' primorava Ruse da stalno gledaju u nas i strahuju, znajući da ukoliko odluče da se upuste u okršaj sa nama, to bi za njih predstavljalo ulazak u ring i boksovanje sa nevidljivim Muhamedom Alijem - rekao je Volters za "Biznis insajder".
