does this mean that MLU will also take place in turkey?
The Source codes are computer programs used to operate and control the automatic systems. Whenever a system is controlled by computer or microprocessor, there will be a set of instructions or a computer code or program that makes the functioning possible.
Almost a decade ago, majority of US aircraft and missile codes were re-written in the C-language. I read it in an issue of "Aviation Week and Space Technology".
The ECCM features and guidance of the MICA ( even earlier Super 530D) and AMRAAM are through computer programs stored in chips....mostly in onboard computer.......
Now its important that you get these "codes" so that you can modify the ECCM or Guidance algorithms (logics) according to the evolving threat.
Russia is more strict in these downgrading of equipment and it does it openly. Every export version of russian aircraft is downgraded in avionics, radar and weapons codes as compared to own Russian aircraft.
I think thats the reason that India turned to Israel for radars, avioncs and ECM gear.
someone please try to get hold of Asif Shamim from f-16.net he can be helpful in pakdef.
here is a ACM remarks regarding PAF F-16 MLU.
On the renovation and overhaul of the existing fleet of F-16 aircraft, the PAF chief said under the Mid-Life Upgrade (MLU) Program six aircraft of PAF would be overhauled in the US while PAFs technicians would also be given training. "We will make every effort to acquire technical know how ultimately enabling us to undertake overhauls and upgrades of the aircraft indigenously," he said.
A few more words on the flight control software of the aircrafts from Greg Goebel / In The Public Domain
"The processing power of the F-35 has presented the electronics system developers with a formidable software challenge. The F-22 Raptor uses about 2.5 million lines of software, but the F-35 will use 5.6 million lines of code. The F-35 not only has a more advanced electronics system, but it operates in both air-to-air and air-to-ground modes, and is being built in three different versions. The software design strategy is focusing on modularizing the code so that the portions that are unique to each F-35 variant can be isolated, and the remaining code used as-is on all three variants. The portions that are unique to each variant are a minority, about 1.1 million lines.
In addition, the code is largely executed by an interpretive software layer known as "middleware" that isolates the code from the specific details of the processor used. In principle, this will allow software to be ported to new processors as they become available, requiring only new middleware and maybe a few software tweaks. Interestingly, the code is written in C/C++, strongly suggesting that the military's effort to create Ada as a standardized programming language for defense projects was a dead end."
So as the F-16 is too multi-role like JSF, the main program will be of at least a few million lines long. And this software makes the aircrafts systems run. All weapons are most likely fired through this software too.
So it seems that with hardware (F-16), we need to get the software too, so that we can integrate other weapons too ourselves by changing and testing the software.
Here I must add that sometimes the manufacturers upgrade the weapons system simply by installing the new software. And this new program is sold for millions.
Dear Shebazi,
I must compliment you on your posts. They are always educative.
Are your from the PAF ?
Regards
Thanks buddy. Its just because I have been studying literature on the military aviation from my childhood and its just passion that I continue to study it even though its not my job.
No I am not in PAF although my father did serve in PAF. He was a technician in PAF and he was my first teacher. 10 years ago, I did try to join PAF but could not pass through ISSB. I mentioned it in a thread. I am an engineer and am doing Phd in Engineering.
They are putting some makkhan(butter) on the fat cheif. So he keeps eating, and keep supplying us the F-16s. The PAF definitely has alot of makkhan in its kitchen.
We should treat all our guests with respect but at the same time if Pakistan care less US can't dent us more.
LHM is willing to build F-16 in india plus other defence contractors are about to transfer sensitive technology to indians and we have a lolypop of F-16!
We should also demand aircraft engine factory in Pakistan. Other wise US be denied Pakistan's military assistance.
