Problemi u proizvodnji F-15EX dovode do kasnjenja u isporuci
Boeing F-15EX deliveries slip at least six months after quality errors
Citat:Production mistakes and quality problems with Boeing’s F-15EX Eagle II program have caused the fighter’s delivery schedule to slip by at least six months, which could endanger its ability to meet key deadlines, the U.S. Government Accountability Office said in a new report.
Citat:Several production problems delayed the delivery of those six fighters in lot 1B, GAO said. Those delays were mainly caused by what office referred to as “supplier quality problems related to a critical component in the forward fuselage assembly that ensures safety of flight.” The report did not provide further details on that component, but said quality problems were fixed by the time Boeing built the seventh and eighth F-15EXs.

Boeing also mis-drilled windscreen installation holes on four F-15EXs in this lot because the company used tooling with a design error, GAO said. Program officials told auditors the problem was caught before more planes were mis-drilled, and that Boeing will redrill the holes on affected aircraft before starting production on the second lot of fighters.

Japan is trying to get rid of 200 P&W F100 turbofan engines
Citat:During an earnings briefing on May 9, Hiroshi Ide, President of IHI Corporation, told reporters that approximately 200 Pratt & Whitney F100 turbofan engines mounted on the Mitsubishi F-15J fighter will have to be disposed of when they are retired.
Citat:Ide says his company has held talks with the ruling party on how to get rid of those fighter jets’ engines. One way is to export these engines to another country.
However, Japan’s Three Principles on Transfer of Defense Equipment and Technology prohibits the transfer of fighter jet engines to another nation. Discussions are underway to resolve the deadlock.

Japan to consider export of P&W F100-PW-220 turbofan engines to Indonesia
Citat:Japan is currently contemplating the export of its used Pratt & Whitney F100-PW-220 turbofan engines to Indonesia, as reported by The Yomiuri Shimbun on June 18. The engines in question will be sourced from Japan Air Self-Defense Force F-15s that are scheduled for retirement.
The request for the export of these engines came from Indonesia itself, according to the Yomiuri Shimbun. In March 2021, the governments of both Japan and Indonesia signed an agreement pertaining to the transfer of defense equipment and technology, which paves the way for this potential transfer.

These particular engines from the F-15 aircraft are being considered for installation in Indonesia’s F-16 fighter jets. The decision is based on the fact that there are similarities between the engines of the F-15 and F-16 aircraft, enabling Tokyo to respond to Jakarta’s specific request.

Ameri polako penzionisu i menjaju ih sa F-35
125th Fighter Wing begins retiring its F-15Cs
Citat:In a monumental shift towards modernizing its aerial capabilities, the Florida-based 125th Fighter Wing is gearing up for a significant transformation. After three decades of flying the F-15C Eagle, the 125th Fighter Wing is embarking on a journey into the future with the arrival of the F-35A Lightning II, marking a new chapter in the unit’s storied history.
The momentum towards this transition gained significant traction on Aug. 14, 2023, when Maj. Brannon Ferguson, a seasoned pilot at the 159th Fighter Squadron, flew an F-15C Eagle to its final resting place at the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona.
