Dossier n° 177 - Schede di lettura
9 giugno 2015
http://documenti.camera.it/leg17/dossier/pdf/DI0289.pdf
Hier stehen noch weitere Details zum italienischen JSF-Beschaffungsprojekt. Inklusive verlinkten Parlamentsdokumenten (u.a. zur Fertigungslinie in Cameri). Offensichtlich will Italien mit der F-35A und F-35B insgesamt 250 Tornado und AMX bei der Aeronautica Militare sowie 18 Harrier AV8B-Plus bei der Marina Militare ersetzen. Diese Flugzeuge werden seit 2014 schrittweise außer Dienst gestellt. Laut den Angaben in diesem Dossier konnten die USA bis zu 28 % der Entwicklungskosten der F-35 auf Partnerländer abwälzen - ohne, dass diese überhaupt Flugzeuge bestellt oder nennenswerte Kompensationen durch Aufträge an Sublieferanten bekommen hätten. Die Aufträge an Sublieferanten wurden im freien Wettbewerb vergeben, nicht als Kompensationsgeschäfte.
Die Kosten für die Beteiligung an der
Concept Demonstration Phase (CDP; November 1996-Oktober 2001),
System Development and Demonstration Phase (SDD; Oktober 2001 - heute) und PSFD (
Production, Sustainment, and Follow-on Development) machten für Italien insgesamt 1942 Mio. $ aus (davon 1038 Mio. $ für CDP und SDD).

SECTION II
OBJECTIVES
2.1. This MOU establishes a framework that will enable Participants to cooperate effectively in the Project.
Whilst the U.S. DoD and the U.K. MOD will initially enter into this MOU, this MOU is intended to be the vehicle for multinational JSF EMD cooperation, and it establishes the principles common to all Participants who enter into it. Pursuant to this MOU and subject to its common principles, there will be established Supplements, specific to a level of Project participation, between or among the U.S. DoD and the other Participant or Participants at that level. The Supplements will contain detailed provisions concerning the responsibilities and benefits that correspond to the relevant level of participation.
2.3. Participation under this MOU will provide the Participants with the opportunity for future cooperation in JSF developmental upgrades, production and support. Such future cooperation will be the subject of separate written arrangements by the Participants, or amendments to this MOU and its Supplements.

F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) Program

Specialist in Military Aviation

Manufacturing Locations
The F-35 is manufactured in several locations. Lockheed Martin builds the aircraft’s forward section in Fort Worth, TX. Northrop Grumman builds the midsection in Palmdale, CA, and the tail is built by BAE Systems in the United Kingdom. Final assembly of these components takes place in Fort Worth. Final assembly and checkout facilities have also been established in Cameri, Italy, and Nagoya, Japan.
The Pratt & Whitney F135 engine for the F-35 is produced in East Hartford and Middletown, CT. Rolls-Royce builds the F-35B lift system in Indianapolis, IN.
International Participation
In General
The F-35 program is DOD’s largest international cooperative program. DOD has actively pursued allied participation as a way to defray some of the cost of developing and producing the aircraft, and to “prime the pump” for export sales of the aircraft. Allies in turn view participation in the F-35 program as an affordable way to acquire a fifth-generation strike fighter, technical knowledge in areas such as stealth, and industrial opportunities for domestic firms.
Eight allied countries—the United Kingdom, Canada, Denmark, The Netherlands, Norway, Italy, Turkey, and Australia—are participating in the F-35 program under a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the SDD and Production, Sustainment, and Follow-On Development (PSFD) phases of the program. These eight countries have contributed varying amounts of research and development funding to the program, receiving in return various levels of participation in the program. International partners are also assisting with Initial Operational Test and Evaluation (IOT&E), a subset of SDD. The eight partner countries are expected to purchase hundreds of F-35s, with the United Kingdom’s 138 being the largest anticipated foreign fleet.
The UK is the most significant international partner in terms of financial commitment, and the only Level 1 partner. On December 20, 1995, the U.S. and UK governments signed an MOU on British participation in the JSF program as a collaborative partner in the definition of requirements and aircraft design. This MOU committed the British government to contribute $200 million toward the cost of the 1997-2001 Concept Demonstration Phase. On January 17, 2001, the U.S. and UK governments signed an MOU finalizing the UK’s participation in the SDD phase, with the UK committing to spending $2 billion, equating to about 8% of the estimated cost of SDD. A number of UK firms, such as BAE and Rolls-Royce, participate in the F-35 program
Unlike the SDD phase, PSFD phase does not make any distinction as to levels of participation. Also unlike the bilateral SDD MOUs, there is a single PSFD MOU for all partner nations. In signing the PSFD MOU, partner nations state their intentions to purchase the F-35, including quantity and variant, and a determination is made as to their delivery schedule. PSFD costs will be divided on a “fair-share” based on the programmed purchase amount of the respective nation. So-called “offset” arrangements, considered the norm in defense contracts with foreign nations, usually require additional incentives to compensate the purchasing nation for the agreement’s impact to its local workforce. F-35 officials decided to take a different approach, in line with the program’s goal to control costs, to avoid offset arrangements and promote competition as much as possible. Consequently, all partner nations have agreed to compete for work on a “best-value” basis and have signed the PSFD MOU.
