France Says To Start Delivering Jets To Qatar From Mid-2018
Citat:France will start delivering Rafale fighter jets to Qatar from mid-2018 at the rate of 11 per year, the French defence ministry said on Thursday.

Earlier the government said Qatar has agreed to buy 24 Dassault Aviation-built Rafale fighter jets in a deal worth 6.3 billion euros ($7 billion), as the Gulf Arab state looks to boost its military firepower amid regional instability.

Qatari Eagles set to be most advanced to date
Citat:The F-15QA will be the most capable variant to date, building on the already-impressive F-15SA for Saudi Arabia by adding new 10 x 19-in Large Area Displays (LADs) in both cockpits and adding the new AN/APG-82(V)1 Advanced Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar that is also currently being retrofitted to US Air Force F-15Es. Parker told Combat Aircraft: ‘The old days of the F-15 trying to hang in there are gone — we are foot-to-the-floor and seeing a lot of interest.’

The Advanced F-15’s payload is at the center of its capabilities. Adding fly-by-wire has enabled the opening up of stations 1 and 9 — the new outer wing hardpoints. Boeing’s Amber Rack is featured on the fly-by-wire F-15. This means the Saudi and Qatari jets can fly with a standard 12 air-to-air missiles. Adding the Amber Rack to the conformal fuel tanks (CFTs) allows for up to 22 missiles, or a mix of air-to-ground stores.

Boeing is also developing structural upgrades for the new Qatari aircraft that will have read-across for prospective USAF service-life extension programs. ‘We are also re-mastering the Qatari wing with proprietary technology, which takes cost out. That will also be available for the [US] Air Force for the F-15C and E.’

Jois nisu dali pare za EF
Citat:Qatar's efforts to raise debt financing to buy advanced fighter jets from Britain has forced a delay in the deal until later this year, casting a shadow over a visit to London by the emir.

The Qatari leader is due to meet with British Prime Minister Theresa May for a working lunch on Tuesday and hold meetings with other British ministers during the day. The order for the British-made fighters is at the heart of British relations with Qatar. Doha's decision to raise funds from the capital markets for the purchase appeared to catch those close to the deal by surprise last month.

Last December, Qatar agreed a $6.7 billion deal with industry giant BAE Systems for 24 Typhoon fighter jets and the first payment was expected now. However, a source close to the deal confirmed that Qatar was seeking a $4 billion loan to fulfill its obligations that delayed the payment and plunged the agreement into uncertainty.

“Initially the payment was expected around now but (has now been pushed) back to the third quarter on financial records, perhaps late August, so the deal can go through,” the source with knowledge of the contract said. “We don’t know why they need to do this (get the loan), it is their internal process that we are not party to, but we are still confident of payment and expect the deal to go through."

The financing will be backed by export credit agencies. Last December, BAE said the deal was subject to “financial conditions and receipt by the company of first payment, which are expected to be fulfilled no later than mid-2018”.
