WATER: A rapprochement with China compromising for the F-35?
Beijing-Abu Dhabi links would pose operational security risks for the F-35A permanent suspense
Signed hours before the handover of power between Donald Trump and Joe Biden, the $ 23 billion UAE mega-contract continues to raise embarrassing questions. Indeed, if it was postponed for electoral reasons, this diplomatic-military pact was finally accepted in April by the new administration, wishing to move forward with one of its close partners in the MO, not without provoking an Israeli fear which also operates the F-35. According to several American media, Washington is worried about the capture of American technologies for the benefit of Beijing.Proximity to Beijing
Indeed, according to several reports of the American intelligence services, Abu Dhabi would have hosted in recent weeks several military flights from China, the nature of which remains secret, enough to reinforce the hypothesis of a relationship stronger than it is. appears between these two nations. The United States is currently seeking to ensure that its technologies will not be traded with third countries. For its part, Abu Dhabi has since assured its support and willingness to secure this contract. However, still according to the Pentagon, the F-35 will not arrive before 2027 on Emirati soil, which leaves time for manufacturers to plug any “technological” breaches. Tel Aviv hasAn "Elephant" Contract
After the diplomatic recognition of Israel by Abu Dhabi last August, and the agreement on the coordination of their military means against Tehran under the leadership of Washington, there was nothing more to prevent the transfer of latest generation technologies from the UAE. . With its completion, Lockheed-Martin will pocket nearly $ 10.4 billion for the supply of 50 F-35s as well as the associated training and maintenance. Or a cost of $ 200M per platform and without weapons! A sum which shows, and contrary to the criticisms of which it has been the target, that the Rafale remains extremely competitive on the international market. General-Atomics has for the first time been authorized to export to this region of the globe nearly 19 armed Reapers drones, and equipped with Selex Seaspray 7500 maritime surveillance radars as well as anti-submarine warfare kits. To which are added more 515 Hellfire missiles for a total amount of $ 2.97 billion. Finally, and it is undoubtedly on this point that D. Trump left a poisoned gift to J. Biden, Abu Dhabi acquires more than $ 10B of ammunition for its fleet of F-35 and F-16. In addition to the 802 AMRAAM missiles, there are 700 cruise missiles, 150 anti-radar missiles, and above all more than 6500 guided bombs (1000, 500, 250, 110 kg). An arsenal which shows that the emirate is resolutely moving towards a warlike posture, and above all, towards massive operations of attacks on the ground.
