Le budget qui lui \u00e9tait allou\u00e9 a \u00e9t\u00e9 supprim\u00e9, selon des informations officieuses qui paraissent bien fix\u00e9es d\u00e9sormais, \u00e0 quelques jours de la pr\u00e9sentation au Congr\u00e8s du budget FY2006 du Pentagone.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tLa seule chance qui reste pour le moteur Rolls Royce, c’est que les d\u00e9l\u00e9gations des \u00c9tats o\u00f9 se trouvent les usines GE qui est associ\u00e9 \u00e0 Rolls, parviennent \u00e0 restaurer les fonds dans le budget lors de l’examen du Congr\u00e8s. Ce n’est pas assur\u00e9, dans la mesure o\u00f9 des compensations peuvent \u00eatre pr\u00e9vues pour General Electric. Le seul argument s\u00e9rieux en faveur d’une restauration des fonds est celui de la concurrence (du monopole): si GE, \u00e0 la suite de cette d\u00e9cision, abandonne le domaine du moteur d’avion de combat, Pratt & Whitney resterait seul motoriste am\u00e9ricain du domaine. D’autre part, il est certain que le budget FY2006 sera chaudement discut\u00e9 au Congr\u00e8s, ce qui peut favoriser une restauration du budget.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tEn attendant, les Britanniques se trouvent dans une position encore plus dramatique dans le dossier JSF qui les oppose aux Am\u00e9ricains. Ici, c’est l’agence Associated Press (sur le site CTV.CA<\/a>) qui pr\u00e9sente le prochain budget, \u00e0 partir de documents officiels auxquels elle a eu acc\u00e8s : \u00ab One plan would eliminate funding for an alternative engine for the Joint Strike Fighter, the military’s next-generation combat plane. <\/em>[…] The Joint Strike Fighter engine is being built by General Electric and England-based Rolls Royce, and the plan to dump them as suppliers has triggered intense lobbying, including a handwritten note from British Prime Minister Tony Blair to Bush.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb On the homefront, the close to $2 billion cut would hit General Electric engine plants, and possibly jobs, in Ohio and Massachusetts and a Rolls Royce plant in Indiana. This is a big question for GE, said Loren Thompson, military analyst with the Lexington Institute think tank. They could get shut out of the fighter engine business over the next 10 years.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb The proposal would benefit Connecticut-based Pratt & Whitney, which got the original contract for the Lockheed Martin aircraft, and delivered its first engine last month. GE spokesman Dan Meador said the alternate engine program provides competition for Pratt & Whitney, helping to drive down costs while also providing a back-up if problems arise. It’s very important to GE and Rolls Royce, and we’re performing well, he said.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
