Why the Pentagon Might Regret Rushing Boeing's F-15EX Fighter Into Action
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 17 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *F-15 EX Fighter, * Are corners are being cut to get the F-15EX program in high gear? *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The decision for the Air Force to purchase new aircraft, even as it costs more per plane than modernizing the legacy F-15s, is based on the fact that the F-15EX would yield more “future life,” and would also avoid the cost of some or all of the upgrades. Recently, it was reported that the Boeing F-15EX will not be required to go through key survivability tests, as the Office of the Secretary of Defense has waived such tests and in turn could save...
This Jet Could Kill Billions: How the E-6 Could Unleash Nuclear War
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 17 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *U.S. Air Force, Americas* [image: U.S. Air Force] The E-6 command and control plane could order a launch in response to a nuclear attack. *Key point: *The airborne command post helps to ensure deterrence by showcasing how the President could still give orders from the air. Here is how the Cold War-era role is still kept today. In a military that operates Raptor stealth fighters, A-10 tank busters, B-52 bombers and Harrier jump jets, the U.S. Navy’s placid-looking E-6 Mercury, based on the 707 airliner, seems particularly inoffensive. But don’t be deceived by ...
