Nous avions dans nos archives un jugement int\u00e9ressant sur le JSF, extrait d’un rapport du think tank<\/em> fameux des n\u00e9o-conservateurs, le Project for the New American Century<\/em> (PNAC). Ce jugement nous semblait parfaitement illustrer un point de notre F&C<\/em> du jour<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tEn consultant nos archives, nous avons constat\u00e9 que nous ne disposions pas du lien du rapport d’o\u00f9 \u00e9tait extrait ce jugement. Nous l’avons recherch\u00e9, pour constater, \u00f4 surprise, que le site du PNAC \u00e9tait ferm\u00e9<\/a> depuis le 20 mai 2008<\/a>. Le nouveau Si\u00e8cle Am\u00e9ricain aurait donc v\u00e9cu, remarquable contraction du temps qui montre que l’Am\u00e9rique est toujours en avance, \u00a0et les neocons<\/em> sont pass\u00e9s \u00e0 autre chose<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tIl n’emp\u00eache, le jugement du PNAC sur le JSF reste int\u00e9ressant, comme exemple d’une prise de position de faucons extr\u00e9miste d\u00e9favorables au programme, selon l’argument paradoxal que le programme affaiblit la d\u00e9fense US en pompant des fonds tr\u00e8s importants pour un syst\u00e8me inad\u00e9quat. A l’\u00e9poque o\u00f9 ce jugement est publi\u00e9 (septembre 2000), le point de vue hostile au JSF est assez r\u00e9pandu dans l’\u00e9quipe \u00e9lectorale du candidat GW Bush, toujours au nom d’un effort de r\u00e9forme radicale des structures de d\u00e9fense US qu’il contribuerait \u00e0 entraver. Apr\u00e8s des sp\u00e9culations sur le sort du JSF tout au long du printemps 2001, l’administration et Rumsfeld reculeront devant la bureaucratie du DoD qui n’abandonne jamais aucun programme. Le tourbillon de l’augmentation des d\u00e9penses de d\u00e9fense r\u00e9glera l’affaire pour l’administration GW Bush apr\u00e8s l’attaque du 11 septembre 2001: on n’abandonne pas un programme qui co\u00fbte aussi cher alors que l’Am\u00e9rique est en danger.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tVoici le passage consacr\u00e9 au JSF, extrait de Rebuilding America’s Defense, Strategy, Forces and Resources For a New Century<\/em>, un rapport du PNAC en date de septembre 2000.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00abIf the F-22 is less than perfectly suited to today’s needs, the problem of the Joint Strike Fighter program is a larger one altogether. Moreover, more than half the total F-22 program cost has been spent already, while spending to date on the JSF although already billions of dollars represents the merest tip of what may prove to be a $223 billion iceberg. And greater than the technological challenges posed by the JSF or its total cost in dollars is the question as to whether the program, which will extend America’s commitment to manned strike aircraft for 50 years or more, represents an operationally sound decision.Indeed, as will be apparent from the discussion below on military transformation and the revolution in military affairs, it seems unlikely that the current paradigm of warfare, dominated by the capabilities of tactical, manned aircraft, will long endure. An expensive Joint Strike Fighter with limited capabilities and significant technical risk appears to be a bad investment in such a light, and the program should be terminated. It is a roadblock to transformation and a sink-hole for defense dollars.<\/em>\u00bb <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
