Le cas de la position d’Isra\u00ebl par rapport au programme d’avion de combat JSF continue, par son ambiguit\u00e9, \u00e0 justifier toutes les sp\u00e9culations. A l’\u00e9t\u00e9 dernier, l’\u00e9tat-major isra\u00e9lien (domin\u00e9 par l’arm\u00e9e de terre) avait annonc\u00e9 la r\u00e9duction radicale<\/a> de l’int\u00e9r\u00eat des forces arm\u00e9es isra\u00e9liennes pour le JSF, dans le bouleversement apport\u00e9 par les enseignements du conflit de l’\u00e9t\u00e9 2006 avec le Hezbollah, avec r\u00e9duction de la commande (de 100 \u00e0 25) et retardement de la livraison. Cette prise de position avait \u00e9t\u00e9 tr\u00e8s mal per\u00e7ue par les USA, ce qui amena une contre-offensive m\u00e9diatique et de relations publiques de Lockheed Martin (LM), avec le soutien du Pentagone. On put en voir l’effet dans plusieurs articles dans Aviation Week & Space Technology<\/em> (AW&ST) du 17 d\u00e9cembre 2007.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tIl s’agissait clairement d’une offensive d’information caract\u00e9ris\u00e9e \u00e9videmment et en toute logique par l’habituel recours \u00e0 la d\u00e9sinformation implicite, chacun des intervenants devant tenir compte des positions d’autres pouvoirs hostiles au JSF. Il y \u00e9tait question entre les lignes (\u00e0 peine) de 100 exemplaires et m\u00eame plus alors qu’on en \u00e9tait \u00e0 25 pr\u00e9c\u00e9demment, et une premi\u00e8re livraison pour 2012 alors qu’on en \u00e9tait rest\u00e9 \u00e0 2016 et pas de commandes dans le plan quinquennal militaire 2008-2012. L’article principal (acc\u00e8s payant<\/a>) annon\u00e7ait (titre) : \u00abIsrael Wants JSF As Soon As Possible The Israeli air force wants a squadron of F-35s quickly for first-day advantages in any conflict<\/em>\u00bb, puis pr\u00e9cisait aussit\u00f4t : \u00abIsrael plans to keep its aerial domination of the Middle East intact, and that includes buying Lockheed Martin’s F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, accelerating its first deliveries, and deciding whose advanced equipment will be packed into the stealthy strike aircraft.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tAW&ST prenait soin de prendre ses sources l\u00e0 o\u00f9 cela importait, chez des officiels de la force a\u00e9rienne isra\u00e9lienne et chez LM: \u00abThe plan is that we will get the F-35 as soon as it’s possible, the senior IAF official says. He says the service will end up with more than 100 F-35s, but he would not confirm the size of the purchase or that Israel is asking that the initial delivery date be accelerated by two years to 2012. The IAF wants the JSF the minute it is available.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tCette pouss\u00e9e de fi\u00e8vre venait de la force a\u00e9rienne isra\u00e9lienne et du Pentagone. Le gouvernement isra\u00e9lien a remis avec pr\u00e9caution les pendules \u00e0 l’heure approximative lors d’une intervention toute en douceur de l’ambassadeur d’Isra\u00ebl \u00e0 Washington. Il s’agit d’un subtil m\u00e9lange de la r\u00e9affirmation de l’int\u00e9r\u00eat d’Isra\u00ebl pour le JSF et d’un d\u00e9layage de toute pr\u00e9cision quant au nombre, aux commandes et aux besoins de livraison. Sallai Meridor a fait ces d\u00e9clarations lors d’un petit d\u00e9jeuner avec la presse US de d\u00e9fense, et AFA Daily<\/em> en rapporte quelques notes aujourd’hui<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00abIsrael’s Ambassador to the US predicts that his country will have a significant need for the capabilities that the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter offers, but he would not confirm that any formal request for airframes is on the way. We are obviously interested, we have been in discussions with the<\/em> [Bush] Administration on this matter, Ambassador Sallai Meridor told reporters Tuesday at a Defense Writers Group breakfast. I cannot tell you exactly how many and what configuration and when. Israeli officials have said that the country is seeking around 100 aircraft to replace older F-16s in the Israeli Air Force.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \tMis en ligne le 27 f\u00e9vrier 2008 \u00e0 10H04<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Le cas de la position d’Isra\u00ebl par rapport au programme d’avion de combat JSF continue, par son ambiguit\u00e9, \u00e0 justifier toutes les sp\u00e9culations.
