He expected by 2016 could be organized by the local government in cooperation with the Indonesian armed forces and the national police. However, the Government is tight-lipped about the funds that are used to implement this program.
Malaysia interested in F-18 Hornet, Su-35 balance mampukah target the AIR FORCE? INDONESIAN AIR FORCE Aircraft-news-Indonesia National Army Air Force (TNI AU) has promulgated the plan the purchase of Sukhoi Su-35 of Russia. The purchases made to replace its F-5 Tiger II which begins to fall for any age, so that it can no longer be upgraded according the times.
In addition to Indonesia, plans turn the plane also carried out the Government of Malaysia. The difference is, they now target the Boeing F/A-18E/F to replace F-5E Tiger II and MiG-29. Let alone now Malaysia already operates eight F/A-18 d Hornet so believed it was time they ride pilot class to F/A18E/F.
If the purchase is implemented, then the big changes occur in the mastery of the air or air superiority in the area of Southeast Asia. But, which is more excellent, the F-18 Super Hornet or the Su-35 Flanker-E?
Malaysia interested in F-18 Hornet, Su-35 balance mampukah target the AIR FORCE?
Aircraft F/A-18E/F and the Su-35 is a multirole fighter jet could be used for aerial combat, reconnaissance, air mastery until the bombing. Even so, the price per unit for a more expensive Su-35 USD 9.8 million when compared to artificial products of U.S. origin, aviation company Boeing for USD 55.2 million.
Although the price is quite expensive, but operating costs are used for flying a Su-35 is cheaper compared to the Super Hornet. Where, the Su-35 just spent Rp 180 thousand per mile traveled. Numbers were cheaper Rp 24 thousand for each nautical miles.
For better performance, the Su-35 is superior compared to the Super Hornet. The plane is assembled aviation companies Sukhoi, Russia origin it can reach 3,600 km with full speed of Mach 2.25 or 2,390 km per hour and reach maximum altitude 59.100 feet.
Meanwhile, the Super Hornet owned speed only reach Mach 1.1 or 1,915 km per hour. The aircraft is only able to traverse the distance as far as the maximum height of 2.346 km and reached no higher than 50 thousand feet.
One of the advantages that owned Su-35 is a terpasangnya radar Irbis-E that can sniff out the presence of Hornet or 30 other unidentified aircraft, with radar shot reaches 120 degrees within 400 km more. The existence of search system and infra-red detection (IRST) has a range of up to 80 km. this equipment make this fighter jets can detect, select and stake out four targets on land as well as two moving targets.
Meanwhile, Boeing built the Super Hornet to provide excellence in the air. This is done by improving avionics with the capabilities of the weapons. One of the elements that are experiencing fundamental change is its own radar systems, namely Raytheon's AN/APG-79 AESA. They claim this radar system into the best in the world.
In General, this aircraft made radar system is capable of detecting a fighter jet faster opponents. Without mentioning the distance detection, APG-79 have experienced increased supervision and support for the air war and the ground. By design, the radar is able to accommodate a wide range of the latest technologies.
Radar also features a Radar Warning Receiver (RWR) which can detect danger from a distance far enough. With the warning given, RWR this made Super Hornet pilots prepare to avoid enemy fire. With such technology, create the ability level with the Super Hornet airplane stealth F-22 and F-35.
Since it was produced, the Super Hornet is already in use on U.S. Navy or U.s. Navy and has been operational since about seven years. The plane was doing in the air security ban on flying in the war on Iraq, and is part of the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln.
Even though it have many advantages, many observers see the Super Hornet lost class with the Su-35. It's just that, the Super Hornet has been tested on the battlefield, whereas the Su-35 is not yet mass-produced and untested. How about you? (Merdeka.com).
