تسليط الأضواء على طلبات شراء مقاتلة الشبح F-35
April 11, 2025 - تم توقيع عدد من الصفقات المهمة مع الولايات المتحدة لشراء طائرات F-35، إما لتوسيع الأساطيل الحالية أو لاستبدال الطائرات القديمة بمقاتلة الجيل الخامس.
The impetus for investment into the U.S. platform has been the lesson of the air war in Ukraine. Hindered both by modern as well as Cold War-era air defences, the conflict has shown that fourth-generation aircraft struggle on the battlefield.
And without control of the air, the fight on the ground in Ukraine has turned into a grinding, attritional struggle with echoes of World War I over a century before.
Several nations, therefore, have decided that despite the steep price tag compared to older fighters, the F-35, with its stealth capabilities, advanced sensors, and networking capabilities, is an increasingly necessary upgrade to prepare for future conflicts in an increasingly hostile environment, according to 19FortyFive.
