  • L'Allemagne commande 38 avions de chasse Eurofighter à Airbus

    L'Allemagne commande 38 avions de chasse Eurofighter à Airbus

    Le parlement allemand a donné son feu vert à un investissement de 5,4 milliards d'euros pour 38 avions de chasse de quatrième génération pour la Luftwaffe. Airbus salue une commande qui représente 100.000 emplois en Europe. Par Anne Bauer Publié le 5 nov. 2020 à 21:13Mis à jour le 5 nov. 2020 à 21:14 La commission budgétaire du Parlement allemand a approuvé un contrat d'achat de 38 avions de combat Eurofighter à Airbus pour un montant évalué à 5,4 milliards d'euros. Un contrat très attendu par le constructeur aéronautique, éprouvé par la crise du covid. Pour la Luftwaffe, l'armée de l'air allemande, il s'agit d'une première tranche sur un objectif de commandes à long terme de 93 Eurofighter ainsi que de 45 F-18 auprès de Boeing. 5,4 milliards d'euros Le président d'Airbus Defense and Space, Dirk Hoke, s'est réjoui de cette décision. « La décision du Bundestag d'acheter 38 Eurofighters de dernière génération est une bonne décision pour l'armée allemande mais aussi pour l'Europe et l'industrie de défense européenne », a-t-il déclaré, en soulignant que plus de 100.000 emplois dépendent d'une telle commande. Il a aussi déclaré que ce soutien affirmé de l'Allemagne au programme Eurofighter était un bon signal pour la crédibilité des campagnes à l'exportation en cours, notamment en Finlande et en Suisse. De son côté, le groupe britannique BAE Systems, partenaire de l'Eurofighter, a aussi salué cette décision : « l'engagement pris aujourd'hui par la Luftwaffe d'acheter 38 avions Eurofighter renforce le rôle de Typhoon au coeur de la défense européenne pour les décennies à venir. Notre équipe au Royaume-Uni est prête à travailler aux côtés de nos partenaires à travers l'Europe pour honorer nos engagements ». Une confirmation européenne La commande allemande est importante car elle grave dans le marbre l'abandon de la tentation d'acheter le F-35, l'avion de chasse de Lockheed Martin, que les Etats-Unis voulaient à tout prix vendre à Berlin. Par ailleurs, les 38 appareils seront d'une quatrième génération et vont embarquer de nombreuses nouvelles technologies, lesquelles vont préparer la route vers le Futur système de combat aérien franco-allemand qui doit prendre la relève vers 2040. Gr'ce au feu vert du Parlement allemand, le contrat Quadriga sera signé en novembre. L'arrivée des 38 nouveaux appareils devrait intervenir entre 2025 et 2030, en remplacement d'Eurofighters de première génération. Pour l'avionneur et ses partenaires européens, la commande tombe à pic alors que 570 appareils ont été livrés, dont 143 à l'Allemagne, sur 623 exemplaires commandés. https://www.lesechos.fr/industrie-services/air-defense/lallemagne-commande-38-avions-de-chasse-eurofighter-a-airbus-1262506

    Naval sales buoy French arms exports in new tally

    By: Christina Mackenzie PARIS – France remained in the world's top five defense exporters in 2019 with €8.3 billion ($9.3 billion) worth of contracts signed, notably with European partners Belgium, the Netherlands, Hungary and Spain, according to a defense ministry report published this week. Half of these contracts were in the naval sector, a very sharp rise from the average 10 percent this sector represented in the past. The contract to replace the mine-hunters for the navies of Belgium and the Netherlands, a program piloted by Belgium on behalf of the two nations, accounted for more than 40 percent of naval sector sales. These sales also partially explain the very sharp rise in 2019 of exports to EU member states: 42 percent of the total, a figure that rises to almost 45 percent if one includes European non-EU members, compared to 25 percent in 2018 and an average 10-15 percent in previous years. The next major export client was the United Arab Emirates (with the Gowind corvette contract) but the 30 percent share of exports in the Africa/Middle East zone was 20 points down compared to 2018 but also compared to the average of the past decade. The report notes that France's exports are, above all, aimed at preserving its own security by establishing bilateral cooperations with European countries and strengthening transatlantic ties. The bilateral cooperations are high-level, long-term, intergovernmental agreements and exports to help the partner nations strengthen and adapt their military capacity. The sale of 16 H225M helicopters and 20 H145M helicopters to Hungary, of two telecommunication satellites to Spain and of the mine-hunters to Belgium and the Netherlands illustrate this philosophy. These exports are on par with those of the past decade “and were obtained in a particularly competitive context with the confirmation of U.S. supremacy and the emergence of new major exporters (notably China).” The parliamentary report also notes that Russia “occupies a very strong position on markets with limited financial resources [...] notably to conquer clients outside its traditional sphere of influence. Over the past few years, Russia has strengthened its position on the Asian markets, in the Middle-East and in north Africa.” There were 4,634 export licenses delivered in 2019, either for transfer of equipment (within the European Union) or for export (to all non-EU countries). But each license does not necessarily mean that an export took place, they merely give the framework for the authorization and establish the conditions for the export. Twenty-five license requests were turned down and some 110 were withdrawn by the applicant. https://www.defensenews.com/global/europe/2020/06/03/naval-sales-buoy-french-arms-exports-in-new-tally/
