\tLe quotidien The Hill<\/a>, sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9 dans les nouvelles du Congr\u00e8s, titre dans ses \u00e9ditions du 4 mai : \u00ab Joint Strike Fighter program approaches its first dogfight.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tLa mati\u00e8re est extraordinairement complexe (le processus d\u00e9cisionnaire du Congr\u00e8s est un ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne kafka\u00efen qui envoie en psychiatrie ceux qui tentent de s’y retrouver). Nous vous donnons quelques-unes des premi\u00e8res indications du texte pour indiquer la tendance ainsi mise en \u00e9vidence :<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00ab A Senate panel’s decision to cut significant funds from the Pentagon’s most expensive program to date, the Joint Strike Fighter, could create a maelstrom in the Pentagon and potentially during conference deliberations with the House over the 2007 defense authorization act.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb The Senate Armed Services Airland Subcommittee, chaired by Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), slashed $1.2 billion from the Pentagon’s request for the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF), a multiservice, multinational program. Even though it is early in the authorization and appropriations process, several sources have indicated that the Pentagon is bound to lead a fight to restore the money because the cuts affect three services, the Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps, each expecting its specific version of the Joint Strike Fighter.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t(…)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bb McCain’s panel recommended cutting $870 million from the procurement funds for five of the Air Force’s JSF aircraft in fiscal 2007. The panel also recommended cutting $245 million, which makes up the entire so-called advance procurement funding for eight of the Marine Corps’s short-takeoff and vertical-landing version of the aircraft, slated for 2008, as well $85 million of the Air Force’s advance procurement request of $145 million for eight aircraft in 2008.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tIl est difficile de pronostiquer quoi que ce soit, d’autant qu’il y a \u00e9videmment la position de la Chambre des Repr\u00e9sentants, qui semble elle aussi agir contre le JSF, comme on a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 le voir<\/a>. Selon The Hill<\/em>, il y a pour l’instant un $milliard de diff\u00e9rence entre les r\u00e9ductions demand\u00e9es par le S\u00e9nat et la Chambre, la Chambre ne touchant pas au budget JSF de FY2007.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tUne confirmation et d\u00e9sormais une certitude : le JSF est entr\u00e9 dans le processus broyeur du Congr\u00e8s. Ce qui est mis en cause, c’est la gestion du programme et il y a une tendance similaire au Congr\u00e8s et au S\u00e9nat pour \u00e9taler les risques en \u00e9talant la fin du d\u00e9veloppement et les tests des prototypes. L’entr\u00e9e dans le jeu de McCain signifie que le JSF est d\u00e9sormais une bonne affaire sur laquelle les parlementaires vont pouvoir se faire les dents et un peu de publicit\u00e9. Pour l’instant, on peut dire qu’une m\u00e9canique de retardement du programme est en route (2-3 ans ?) avant l’intervention sur les commandes. Le JSF est entr\u00e9 dans l’enfer parlementaire.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
