Citat:Holmes said, “I concur with the analysis that’s been done at the Pentagon” that USAF needs to build up from 55 fighter squadrons to 70, which he called “a good number” for all the missions the service is now asked to perform, but said “within the realities we face in our budget” it won’t happen fast. The Air Force has to modernize its nuclear deterrent and pay a lot of other modernization bills, Holmes said, “and so what I propose is that we work on having 55 fully capable squadrons” for now, “and then we’ll see about growing and … what happens next with the budget level.”

The Fighter Roadmap will show “the logic and the math” for evolving toward the 70 fighter squadrons it wants to build toward. He hopes Congress will “enact” the Roadmap in the Fiscal 2020 budget that will be built in the Fall. He suggested that at least some form of the document will be publicly releasable.

Because the Air Force got most of what it wanted, or at least is expected to, in the form of upgrades to fourth-generation F-15s and F-16s in the Fiscal ‘18 and ‘19 budgets, “we’re in a pretty good place” with those fleets, Holmes insisted.

Citat:What Is Causing The Recent Spate Of US Military Crashes?

However, it doesn’t take much examination to come up with a far more plausible theory – lack of proper maintenance for older airframes, some of which can be attributed to the 2013 budget sequester.

For starters, let’s take a look at the list of US military aviation crashes in 2018, as per Wikipedia:

January 21: A U.S. Army AH-64 Apache crashed during training at the base in the Mojave Desert, California. Both pilots onboard were killed.
March 14: A US Navy F/A-18E/F Super Hornet crashed roughly a mile off the end of the runway at Naval Air Station Key West in Florida. Both crew members died after they ejected.
March 15: A US military HH-60 Pave Hawk helicopter crashed in Western Iraq, killing all seven aboard.
April 3: A U.S. Marine Corps AV-8B Harrier crashed in Djibouti shortly after take-off.
April 4: A USMC CH-53E Super Stallion crashed near Naval Air Field El Centro, killing all 4 crewmen.
April 5: A US Air Force Flight Demonstration Team F-16 crashed in Nevada, killing the pilot.
April 13: A United States Air Force F-22 Raptor fighter jet was damaged when it experienced an engine malfunction during takeoff. Apparently the left engine basically stopped working on takeoff, suddenly depriving the pilot of enough thrust to continue ascent after he had already raised the landing gear, forcing for a hard, belly landing that lasted for more than a mile.
April 24: A United States Air Force F-16 crashed during an emergency landing. The pilot ejected safely.
May 2: United States Air Force Lockheed WC-130H Hercules 65-0968, of the 156th Airlift Wing of the Puerto Rico Air National Guard, crashed on Georgia State Route 21 in Port Wentworth, Georgia while on climbout from Hilton Head International Airport and caught fire, killing all nine on board. This was to be the aircraft’s last flight before retirement at the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group (AMARG) base in Arizona.

Given all of the domestic problems the US Air Force has keeping its older aircraft airborne, and the location of all of the aviation accidents, it is highly unlikely that any of these incidents can be chalked up to hacking or external interference from a peer state. Although it is important to point out that this could be the case, and the average citizen will likely never know if aircraft losses are due to Chinese/Russian interference…

…it is far more likely that the recent crashes are due to failures by the Pentagon’s inability to compensate for Congress slightly pricking the balloon of out-of-control defense spending. Sadly, it seems that the end result of all this will be more big-money contracts doled out to put more inferior weapons systems in the US inventory.

Izuzetan video poletanja iz USAF baze na Alaski svih vrsta lovaca, osim F-16 trenutno u službi oružanih snaga SAD. Tu je i C-17. Može se lepo primetiti kako se kod poletanja F-22 i F-35 ne vidi plamen zbog smanjenog forsaža motora, ipak dovoljnog za poletanje.
