السعودية عضو في NETMA و شريك رئيسي في التايفون
خلال قرائتي لاحد المواقع عن مستقبل التايفون وجدت معلومه لم اكن اعرفها و تعتبر خبر جدا جدا رائع.
السعوديه في عام 2012 اصبحت شريك في NETMA و هي اختصار ل NATO Eurofighter and Tornado Management Agency. و اصبحت السعوديه في مقعد السائق في ما يخص تطوير التايفون و التيرنادو و ادارة كل مايخصها تقريبا. اترككم مع الخبر:
Export customers in the driving seat
The solution, paradoxically is coming from outside the traditional European Eurofighter partner nations and from export customers, who see the chance to not only boost their air forces with a more capable version of the fighter, but also to invest in and share technology that will feed into their own aerospace industries. For instance, in 2012 Saudi Arabia took on a bigger role on the programme, with a seat on NETMA (NATO Eurofighter and Tornado Management Agency) and increased power in deciding development priorities. This has already borne fruit.
BAE’s MAI were reluctant to comment but it is understood that the RSAF, for example, is funding the French-built Damocles targeting pod to integrate with the Typhoon. Saudi Arabia too is also now pushing integration with MBDA’s Storm Shadow cruise missile.
Bob Smith admits that gaining agreements to requirements for the legacy European partners and new export customers like Saudi Arabia is a challenge. However the result is that it does provide a win-win outcome for all parties. Eurofighter customers get a more capable fighter, new foreign partners get technology transfer and set the pace, and the Eurofighter consortium itself gets a more exportable product to build extra sales. With the Typhoon only perhaps one-fifth of the way through its operational life, BAE argues that now is the perfect time for export customers desperate to grow their own high-tech aerospace industry to get on board. It allows them to share costs across the customer base.
