Taiwan’s China Times published on the 25th “Taiwan’s when we can have a F-35″ report, the article explored the timetable for Taiwan has estimated that retrofitting aircraft will probably not as early as 2030, could even 2035 years later.
Article summarized as follows:
Japan asked the United States over the years has always been the highest of contemporary science and technology sold to the crystallization of F-22, has been flatly rejected by the United States, most recently Japan’s defense ministry has finally decided to seek a compromise and instead buy about 40 F-35 Joint Strike machine, In response to the Great Leap Forward in recent years in order to show the mainland air force posture.
However, due to the many R & D process flow, and countries determined by F-35 production and service time has long been delayed, resulting in the supply alone took part in the 11 countries (including Israel and Singapore, two members of the Security Cooperation), the fastest are also in 2014, the slowest to wait until almost 2020, and even after a formal service in 2025. Despite Japan’s claims to the United States in Asia’s most important ally, even if we can jump the queue to grab a part of the quota, so that by 2020 the first official service, it has also been a decade since the matter anymore.
Taiwan is neither a participant in the joint combat aircraft, and the relationship between the United States more than non-Japanese, together with mainland China factor, you would think, at this stage not with F-35 missed. Therefore, Taiwan’s arms purchase is currently locked target, but the last F-16 aircraft Block 52 kinds of class models.
So, what Taiwan can be achieved when the F-35 do?
Accordance with the time projection, if no major changes in production and supply due to just Israel and outside of Singapore among the major participating countries on more than 3000, while one after another in recent years, many have expressed strong interest in continually ranked next on the list Norway, Taiwan, the fastest time to obtain F-35 will probably not as early as 2030, could even 2035 years later, that is, deprivation of the recent United States is willing to sell Taiwan F-16 Block 52, this group of fighters with the existing F – -16, Mirage 2000-5, as well as IDF, at least have to survive on for more than 20 years have the chance to be replaced.
