Dålig synk mellan F16 o Gripen i Thai AF.

>>The source added the Thai navy and air force managed to effectively unlock a restriction imposed on the Thai air force by the US, which normally forbids the communication systems on the US-made F16 jets.from synchronising with the Thais' Gripen fighter aircraft, manufactured in Sweden. The Gripen aircraft and the F16 jets have different communication systems and for security reasons the US will not. unlock the link of the F16 jet's system allowing communication between the F16 jet and the Gripen aircraft.

For the purpose of the drill, the air force and navy were able to overcome the restriction and talk to the US-made planes anyway. "The [Thai] air force has for some time requested the unlocking but the US has never agreed on that," said an air force source.

The drill also marked the first time the HTMS Chakri Naruebet, HTMS Taksin and HTMS Naresuan were brought together for the exercise after recently being equipped with a new combat system. The three ships were used in the drill together with six Gripen fighter aircraft and eight F16 jets from the air force. With the Network Centric and Tactical Datalink systems installed. on the ships, the Gripen and the Saab 340 AEW (airborne early warning) aircraft could be linked with the help of the SeaHawk S70B in terms of communication. The TDL-E, or Link E was employed. to communicate with the F16 jets and share images and information between the Gripen and the F16 in real time, which was a process crucial for making the drill happen. >>

Vanligt förekommande åtgärd av US?
Sur för att inte fått sälja ”snart utflugna F16s” ?
