Navy Times<\/em> cit\u00e9 plus haut reprend des commentaires de Richard Aboulafia exprimant cette inqui\u00e9tude prudente du type le JSF n’avait vraiment pas besoin de cela, et place l’incident sur l’arri\u00e8re-plan des menaces de s\u00e9questration. De ce point de vue, des \u00e9chos d’un symposium de l’Air Force Association, que reprend l’article, sont \u00e9videmment rien moins qu’encourageants. Le catastrophique JSF \u00e9volue dans une catastrophe g\u00e9n\u00e9rale qui est celle du Pentagone, lequel \u00e9volue dans une catastrophe encore plus g\u00e9n\u00e9rale (avec quelques \u00e9toiles de plus), qui est celle des USA Tout s’embo\u00eete parfaitement.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00abWe don’t know what it means yet, said Richard Aboulafia, an analyst with the Virginia-based Teal Group. It could be a one-off. We just have to investigate right away. Still, the timing of the F-35 grounding comes as the Pentagon is facing much budget uncertainty. It’s under a lot of political heat and scrutiny, both in terms of cost and performance, Aboulafia said. It just doesn’t need this.<\/em> []<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbThe JSF was a major topic of discussion at the AFA conference, with top Air Force brass expressing concern about the impacts of sequestration on the already delayed program. In the morning, Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Welsh told the gathered audience that three Air Force F-35s that were due to be delivered this year may be pushed back to 2014 due to the budget situation.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbI can’t give an answer on how it’s going to affect contracts in the future. Lt. Gen. Burton Field, the deputy chief of staff for operations, planning and requirements, told reporters when asked how the delays could impact the overall F-35 buy. It’s a balancing act to try and preserve what we can for the future. Field seconded Welsh’s statement at a congressional hearing last week that the program will have to be looked at in light of sequestration. We think everything is on the table. We’re not sure if anything is off the table, Field said.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\n
