CommandantLes Emiratis ont été surpris par l’absence d’un certain nombre de PDG (Thales, Safran, Dassault, EADS).[…]parier sur les relations entre Abou Dhabi et Paris n’est pas une assurance suffisante pour gagner des contrats : les autres pays font aussi des efforts. L’Italie vient, pour la première fois, de dépasser la France dans les échanges avec les EAU en 2008.
Les EAU ont émis une déclaration de principe pour l’acquisition de Rafale. Ce qui a été confirmé sur Idex.?Mais ils y mettent des conditions : outre la demande d’un moteur plus puissant, la reprise des 60 Mirage 2000-9 pour que l’armée émiratie achète 60 Rafale.?Deuxièmement, il faudra utiliser les systèmes d’armes et équipements des Mirage pour armer les Rafale.?Troisièmement?: acquérir les meilleures technologies (non dégradées) et notamment le missile air-air Meteor. Quatrièmement : renforcer les échanges commerciaux.?
Sergent-Chefl faudra utiliser les systèmes d’armes et équipements des Mirage pour armer les Rafale.

CommandantDecember 31: The US Department of Defense has confirmed that it has awarded Sikorsky a $171 million contract to produce 14 UH-60M helicopters for the United Arab Emirates by the end of 2012.
Original notification of a possible Foreign Military Sale (FMS) was made by the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) to Congress for up to 26 armed helicopters on July 28, 2006. A further DSCA notification for 14 additional aircraft was made to Congress on September 9, 2008, with these to be configured for the troop transport role – it seems that this latter order is to be progressed first.
The United Arab Emirates Air Force & Air Defence (UAE AF&AD) operates ten S-70A Black Hawks at Al Bateen Air Base near Abu Dhabi.
In addition to the UH-60s, the DSCA notified Congress in December of two possible FMS to the UAE, one being a $119 million sale of 12 C-130J-30 aircraft plus support package and a second for a $501 million logistics support, training and related systems package for the four C-17 Globemaster III aircraft already ordered.
In an announcement made on February 25 it was revealed that the C-130J-30 had been selected to replace the UAE AF&AD’s existing fleet of C-130H Hercules aircraft. It is expected that four of the aircraft will be delivered to KC-130J specification.
Commandant : The United Arab Emirates (UAE) Air Force has ordered six C-17s.
January 6: Boeing and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Air Force and Air Defence finally confirmed the long-anticipated order for the C-17 Globemaster III airlifter, but in a surprise move six aircraft have been acquired, rather than the expected four.
Following up the announcement made on February 25, 2009 that the UAE intended to modernise its airlift capabilities with the C-17, the country is the second Middle East nation to order the aircraft.
"The C-17 will give the UAE the ability to perform a variety of humanitarian and strategic lift operations around the world in support of both national and international missions," said Major General Staff Pilot Faris Mohamed Al Mazrouei. "These missions require us to be ready for any contingency at any time and any place."
Boeing will provide support for the UAE C-17s and will deliver four aircraft in 2011 and two in 2012.
