Pentagon could award big radio contract this month
2008-02-11 00:40:00 WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Pentagon will soon choose either Boeing Co or Lockheed Martin Corp to design a next-generation radio system for aircraft, ships and ground stations, a deal potentially worth billions of dollars to the winning bidder. Award of the Joint Tactical Radio System contract could come as soon as the end of February, according to Leo Conboy, program manager for Boeing's team. The Pentagon has promised a decision by the end of the first quarter. Defense analysts say the contract for system design and development of the Airborne Maritime and Fixed Station (AMF) segment of the program will total $800 million to $1.2 billion. A later production contract could translate into business deals valued at $10 billion or more over the long term, they say. The tactical radio system is a family of advanced software-based communications that will replace current radio equipment throughout the U.S. military. It will provide secure Internet-like capabilities and ...

India to offer $1 bn aircraft deal to Lockheed Martin: Official
2008-01-29 13:19:00 NEW DELHI: India is set to award a one-billion dollar contract to Lockheed Martin for six Hercules transport planes in the biggest military aircraft deal with the US in five decades, an official said on Monday. A formal contract is likely to be issued next month to US-based Lockheed which is also in the race for a $10 billion contract to sell 126 fighter jets to the Indian air force, a defence ministry official said. "The reserved RFP (request for proposal) will be issued anytime now," a top ministry source told media on condition that he was not identified by name or rank. A meeting of India's security cabinet led by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh last week cleared the deal for six C-130J planes for special forces operations and left options open for further purchases, the source said. The clearance comes ahead of an official trip to India next month by US Defence Secretary Robert Gates. "The contract will be the most capital-intensive military aircraft deal awarded to a US firm si...

What?s this? EESTOR convinces Lockheed Martin it?s on to something
2008-01-11 08:15:00 The EESTOR ultracapacitor is a technology we really, really want to know more about. The huge potential of these devices that we do know about certainly keeps our ears open for news - or rumors or anything, really - about the technology. We don't know much more about the actual ultracaps (aka Electrical Energy Storage Units or EESU), but Lockheed Martin must like them. The not-exactly-risk-friendly company - I mean, they work the bountiful government system with aplomb - has "signed an exclusive international rights agreement to integrate and market Electrical Energy Storage Units (EESU) from EEStor, Inc., for military and homeland security applications." It sounds like the EESU's will be used in LM's BattPack. Want more details? Sorry. "Specific terms of the agreement were not disclosed."So, about those promises. The EESUs are a ceramic battery "that could provide 10 times the energy density of lead acid batteries at 1/10th the weight and volume" and will supposedly cost half as...

Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II land mark flight
2007-12-11 14:23:00 The 7th of December marked the 20th test flight for the F35 'Joint Strike Fighter'. This aircraft is a particular favourite of mine, and even though it has it's fair share of detractors I think this plane is a stunning piece of technology and design.Credit: https://www.teamjsf.com/ More importantly, this fighter is a hugely important part of the Royal Navy's future strategy, as the key aircraft that will be deployed on it's 'Future Carrier'. This will be Britain's return to the 'large carrier' format after it's flirtation with the Invincible small carrier class.The UK's F-35s - totaling 150 F-35Bs - are due in-service in 2012, and will replace the aging Sea Harrier and Harrier GR.7s types.“The Lightning II embodies a long list of advancements that will make it better, smarter and more reliable than anything that’s come before it, and those technologies are extraordinarily mature in this first-ever F-35,” Beesley said. “When you project ahead to th...
