Royal Navy to get its first drone
£30m contract will see ScanEagle aircraft launched from the back of ships using a catapult
The navy is to get its first unmanned drone, an "eye in the sky" that will be launched from the back of its ships by catapult.
The ScanEagle has a wingspan of just over 3 metres, weighs 22kg, and will fly at 60 knots. It was bought by the Ministry of Defence in a £30m contract with Insitu, a subsidiary of Boeing Defence UK Limited.
It is the first drone designed and built specifically for naval operations. The contract is the latest in what is certain to be a long-term drone programme for all three branches of the armed forces. ScanEagle will complement existing intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities used on operations including helicopters and long range radar, the MoD said on Thursday. It is already used by the navies of other countries.
It will be operated by a specialist team on board the ship who will analyse the information the drone gathers using what the MoD described as state-of-the-art sensors, before remotely guiding it back to the ship.
Captain Ian Annett said the ScanEagle represented an important addition to the navy's "intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capability".
He said: "Its ability to deploy during the day and night, coupled with the technology it uses, will give commanders a clearer picture of the operational situation whenever it's required."
The minister for defence equipment, Philip Dunne, said the drone "provides the Royal Navy with proven surveillance capability that has already been used on operations by other nations, so we know we are getting top-quality equipment. The technology is off-the-shelf and will be available to the Royal Navy as soon as possible.
"Our continued investment in intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance systems is essential to keeping our armed forces up to date with the latest capabilities and this will be a central part of the MoD's investment in new equipment over the next 10 years."

UK Will Try To Boost F-35B Landing Weight
July 5, 2013, 12:50 PM
Senior British military officials confirmed that the UK will conduct shipboard rolling vertical landing (SRVL) trials on the F-35B version of the Lockheed Martin Lightning II stealth combat jet. The SRVL technique would allow the aircraft to land at higher weights than is currently possible in the VTOL mode. The F-35B has faced weight problems, leading to concerns that it could not “bring back” to its aircraft carrier a useful weapons load that has not been expended in combat. The British have done nearly all the previous research and simulation on SRVLs.
The officials said they are satisfied that the F-35B could bring back the internal weapons load that is initially planned, comprising–in the UK case–two AMRAAM air-air missiles and two Paveway IV smart bombs weighing some 5,000 pounds. But, one added, when high temperature and/or low pressure conditions prevail–such as in the Gulf of Oman–it would be prudent to achieve another 2,000 to 4,000 pounds of bring-back weight, for either fuel or weapons, especially since the F-35 will be able to carry additional weapons on wing pylons, when stealth is not a requirement.
The UK will formally decide later this year on a further purchase of F-35s, beyond the three already acquired (at a cost of $350 million) for test and evaluation (T&E). The number under consideration is believed to be 15, enough to equip an initial operational squadron. Another 30 are likely to be approved before 2015, when another British defense review will consider how many more F-35s the country can afford. Until then, the officials maintained, the UK “program of record” remains a total of 138 F-35s. Most observers believe that the UK will not acquire more than 100 F-35s, and some suggest the final total might be as low as 70.
The officials revealed that the UK will work closely with the U.S. Marine Corps to bring its F-35Bs into operational service. After it is formed in 2016, the first British squadron will be based at MCAS Yuma and integrated with the co-located USMC F-35B fleet. Pilots of both services will be able to fly the others’ aircraft. The squadron will relocate to RAF Marham in the UK in early 2018 and be ready for combat from land bases by the end of that year.
Meanwhile, the UK’s three T&E jets will embark on the new Queen Elizabeth II aircraft carrier for trials in the same year.

ROYAL NAVY SAILS FOR ANNUAL ‘COUGAR’ DEPLOYMENT
The long-planned deployment will see elements of the UK’s Response Force Task Group (RFTG) – the naval force formed under the 2010 Strategic Defence and Security Review – hone its world class maritime skills thousands of miles from home through exercises with a number of key allies.
Four Royal Navy warships, the Lead Commando Group from 3 Commando Brigade Royal Marines and elements of Naval Air Squadrons will be supported by five vessels from the Royal Fleet Auxiliary.
This is the third time the deployment has taken place, after Cougars ’11 and ’12, with its aim to demonstrate the ability to operate a highly effective maritime force anywhere in the world to protect UK interests.
Secretary of State for Defence, Philip Hammond MP, said:
“Since its creation under the 2010 Strategic Defence and Security Review, the Response Force Task Group has demonstrated its formidable strength and readiness to respond to emerging threats worldwide through a number of operations and exercises.
“This now routine and long-planned deployment will demonstrate once again its ability to operate as a rapid reaction force on behalf of the UK and, importantly, underlines the global reach and flexibility of the modern Royal Navy.”
The Task Group is able to conduct simultaneously a range of operations from deterring adversaries and maritime security to international engagement and supporting regional stability.
Its units can operate independently on discrete tasks or as a single entity.
Most importantly, it is an adaptable force that is able to work jointly with Army and Royal Air Force assets, other government agencies and partner nations when required.
After a number of planned port visits in the Mediterranean, the first major exercise for the force will be Albanian Lion, in the Adriatic.
Personnel will work with Albania’s armed forces, building on a similar exercise last year, with the goal to put the Lead Commando Group ashore within a high tempo scenario and sustain it as it moves inland.
The ships will then sail through the Red Sea, Indian Ocean and Arabian Gulf where the focus will transfer to the series of exercises with UK allies in the Gulf region; alongside Army and RAF units.
Commodore Paddy McAlpine, Commander UK Task Group, said:
“Cougar ’13 is a bespoke opportunity to enhance the Royal Navy’s enduring core skill – the ability to operate and project power as a task group at range. In so doing, it will also remind interested domestic and international parties of the enduring utility, employability and interoperability of the Royal Navy.
“During Cougar ’13 we will engage with our partner nations through a series of exercises, reinforcing our commitment and demonstrating our contribution to security in the Mediterranean and Gulf region.”
Commodore McAlpine and his staff will command from the nation’s flagship HMS Bulwark. Alongside Brigadier Stuart Birrell (Commander of 3 Commando Brigade Royal Marines) he will choreograph the efforts of Royal Navy and Royal Fleet Auxiliary sailors, Royal Marine Commandos and Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm personnel.

Se empieza a cerrar el círculo en torno al proyecto, la RN quedará con una respetable espina dorsal al termino de su proceso de modernización: CV´s, los T-45 y las T-26 sumados a varios medios auxiliares y aéreos 
. En todo caso, para el GCS esta previsto su incorporación a contar de la siguiente decáda finalizando más allá del 2030 con retiro de la última T-23, unidades que en su mayoria les queda media vida útil aún.

Tal vez sería conveniente señalar que los submarinos de la clase "Astute", a la que pertenece el "Artful" han tenido bastantes problemas de diseño y de calidad de materiales, debido en parte, seguramente, a cosas que ocurren en la vida con nuevos productos.
Nada que ver con los de nuestro S80, claro.

HMS DRAGON HUNTS HMS TALENT IN EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN
As both were working in the Eastern Mediterranean at the same time, the units practised advanced underwater training with HMS Dragon tasked with hunting Talent down.
The Devonport-based submarine proved an elusive and very capable adversary for HMS Dragon, testing her underwater sensors that are as capable in that domain as her more visible radars are that sweep the skies for air threats.
The vessels were then joined by units from the US 6th Fleet - the USS Gravely, Stout and Barry with their SH-60R Sea Hawk helicopters which can ‘dip’ ahead of the force, using their sonars to try and find nearby submarines.

Pues segun lo que he leido en el foro y en sitios especializados los submarinos de la royal navy han presentado inconvenientes tecnicos en el area de su planta motriz (perdidas de refrigerante en los reactores,que casi convierte uno de sus submarinos en un Fukushima naval),que no habian sido resueltos...es quizas para los planificadores militares britanicos un dolor de cabeza saber que sus submarinos han tenido esos inconvenientes

Estimado And:
Basicamente, meter un reactor disenado para el el submarino balistico Vanguard, en el casco de la mitad de ese tamano de los Astute. Y todos los problemas que de alli se derivan. Supongo que se me siente el dejo melancolico de admirador de unos subs reputados como los mas silenciosos de su generacion, los Swiftsure. Saludos cordiales.
