The US Air Forces F-16 strike aircraft should perform their last offensive sorties over Afghanistan in late 2014, as the NATO-led assistance force passes control to Kabul

onicts in Afghanistan, Syria and between Israeli forces and Hamas militants grabbed the headlines in 2012, along with the major budget issues most militaries continue to face, and the outcomes and implications of presidential elections in the USA and China. Although the USA and its NATO and other allies plan to end their combat involvement in

Afghanistan by the end of 2014, Kabul still has a long way to go before taking full control of the nation. Its air force and Army Air Corps which currently operate a combined total of 98 transport aircraft and combat helicopters will also require more investment to be made in equipment terms if they are to be able to cope after the drawdown phase has concluded. Time is tight, for example, if the US Air
Force is to drive through a planned light air support acquisition of 20 armed turboprops for the Afghan air force. A programme should be launched in 2013, with an earlier selection of Embraers EMB-314 Super Tucano having been abandoned. The process of leaving Afghanistan will be a difcult one for participating nations, with a great deal of valuable equipment requiring extraction by air, and land convoys needing signicant protection from above. Another aspect of the Afghan drawdown process will be the conclusion of major joint coalition air operations, after more than a decade of experience gained in the country. The removal of such an opportunity to y alongside other air forces day-to-day will require nations to participate in more regular largescale exercises in order to retain the skills learned in combat and maintain links with current partners. Despite widespread condemnation of the actions of Syrian president Bashar al-Assads regime in the face of a domestic opposition movement, the prospect of an international intervention similar to that seen over Libya in 2011 remains remote. With an inventory of 480 Russian-sourced combat aircraft, including RAC MiG-29

ghters and Sukhoi Su-24 strike aircraft, the Syrian air force has been routinely called into action. Television footage has also shown Mil Mi-8/17 helicopters and armed Aero Vodochody L-39 jet trainers used to suppress the uprising. The Syrian military would represent a different challenge to coalition air forces than during the UN-mandated and NATO-led mission to protect Libyan civilians, because of
its possession of so-called double-digit surface-to-air missile systems, also acquired from Russia. Assads forces demonstrated their willingness to use such equipment in June, when a Turkish air force McDonnell Douglas F-4E Phantom was shot down after violating Syrian airspace. Novembers eight-day conict between Israel and Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip underscored the importance of an air force
being able to maintain persistent surveillance cover over a potential conict area, including with unmanned air vehicles.

HAMAS TARGETS Israeli air force combat aircraft and helicopters, along with ground artillery and naval vessels, attacked more than 1,500 targets during the Pillar of Defense operation. These included not only launchers for the rockets which were being red into Israeli territory, but also previously identied sites, such as weapons stores, resupply tunnels and even Hamas leaders. Despite its military might and the impressive performance of its Iron Dome antirocket shield, Israels vulnerability to nontraditional attack had already been highlighted in early October, when a UAV launched in Lebanon entered its airspace, before being destroyed by a Lockheed Martin F-16I. For the rst time, this years World Air Forces directory uses information sourced from Flightglobals Ascend Online Fleets and MiliCAS databases. Completed in 2011, the merger of Flightglobal and Ascend has resulted in an enhanced product, including improved information on the equipment in use gg in nations such as China and Russia.

gg This years directory contains almost 51,800 aircraft listed in the active duty inventories of air arms from 160 nations. This represents an overall reduction of fewer than 200 airframes since our 2011-2012 snapshot of the worldwide eet. A further 6,100 aircraft are shown as the subject of rm orders, with more than 5,700 others pending contract signatures.
Washingtons numerical strength is unlikely to be overturned by Russia or growing military power China
Notable major deletions from our previous listing for Soviet-era equipment have included the removal of almost 500 aged Mi-24 assault helicopters from the Russian air forces inventory, along with 220 obsolete Mi-2s. As with previous listings, the USA dominates the directory in the number of aircraft in use and on order, with its air force, army, Marine Corps and navy together accounting for 27% of all active aircraft. While Washingtons numerical strength is unlikely to be overturned by former rival Russia or growing military power China, the end of its combat commitment in Afghanistan and budget reductions will have a major near-term impact. Unless averted by early January, a Congressionally-threatened sequestration measure could wipe about $500 billion from the Department of Defenses budget during a 10-year period, with this to come on top of planned reductions of $487 billion already in the USAs planning cycle. While the US Air Force says it remains committed to acquiring 1,763 Lockheed F-35A Lightning II combat aircraft, sequestration could yet hurt its plans. In May, the service took delivery of its last of 187 F-22 Raptor
stealth ghters from the company, versus an original goal of acquiring 750 of the fthgeneration type. The emergence of several developmental Russian and Chinese ghters within the past two years has focused minds within the USA and other nations as to the capabilities that potential future adversaries could purchase. While Western types such as the F-35, Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet, Dassault Rafale, Euroghter Typhoon and Saab Gripen E will be technologically superior to Chinese models such as the Chengdu J-20 and Shenyang J-31, the latter could eventually prove overwhelming if elded in sufciently high numbers. Beijings continuing major investment in defence aerospace was highlighted by the rst ight of the stealthy-looking J-31 in October, and by Shenyangs J-15 derivative of the Sukhoi Su-33 performing trials from the deck of the Chinese navys newly-introduced aircraft carrier, the Liaoning. Chinas admission to the elite carrier club which in 2013 will also include India was one of the most signicant military developments of the year.
MOSCOW MODERNISATION Moscow, meanwhile, has continued to make a substantial investment in modernising its military machine. Major recent commitments have included orders for 92 Su-34 bombers, 30 Su-30SM ghters and 24 carrierborne MiG-29K/KUBs, along with 39 improved Il-76MD transports. It also has advanced a longplanned project with India to develop a new Medium Transport Aircraft up to a combined 145 of which could be acquired and on producing a version of Sukhois T-50/PAK-FA ghter. Questions remain, however, over whether Russia will be able to sustain its recent spending spike, and particularly on its ability and desire to develop a proposed new-generation bomber dubbed PAK-DA. Indias planned medium multirole combat aircraft acquisition reached the preferred bid-
The Joint Strike Fighter has been on target during weapons release trials der status in late January, when it awarded a Dassault-led team so-called L1 vendor status with the Rafale, following a battle with the Euroghter Typhoon. However, New Delhi has yet to sign a contract for the 126-unit deal. Switzerlands government and air force continue to pursue a deal to acquire 22 nextgeneration Gripen Es, in conjunction with a Swedish commitment for between 40 and 60 of the type, but Berns plans face the threat of

a public referendum, which could potentially derail the scheme. A decision could nally come during 2013 on the direction of Brazils long-planned F-X2 ghter contract. The nations previous administration had favoured the Rafale, but a change of government and fresh delays mean the opportunity is potentially also still open to the Gripen and Super Hornet. Lockheeds F-35 programme, meanwhile,
recently achieved its 5,000th test ight, with the rst airborne weapons separation trials having been performed and the rst two international examples delivered to the UK, which is now acquiring the short take-off and vertical landing B-model. The same variant is now in the hands of the USMCs rst operational squadron to convert to the Joint Strike Fighter, VMFA-121. In the training aircraft sector, while manu-

For its part, Italy will acquire two Gulfstream G550s adapted for airborne early warning duties by IAIs Elta Systems subsidiary. Also vying for the USAFs trainer requirement is BAE Systems, which signed a deal to produce 22 Hawk 165s for Saudi Arabia. The success represents the UK companys rst export deal for the new-generation aircraft that forms the basis of its offer in the T-X battle. Lock-
heed is promoting the T-50 developed jointly with Korea Aerospace Industries a type already in use in South Korea and ordered by Indonesia. The Philippines has also expressed interest in potentially acquiring 12 examples.
EQUIPMENT CHOICE Boeing is expected to pitch a new design for the T-X requirement, which holds the potential to sway the equipment choice of numerous nations over the coming decades. Swiss manufacturer Pilatus enjoyed a

Joint exercises offer an important learning experience for air forces, such as those of RIMPAC allies Australia and Indonesia
bumper 2012, securing orders for a combined 79 PC-21 trainers from Qatar and Saudi Arabia, and also nalising a deal to produce 75 PC-7 Mk IIs for the Indian air force. Iraq also made progress with its plans to acquire 28 Aero Vodochody L-159s, while a new era of Russian air force pilot training began as Irkut delivered its rst Yakovlev Yak-130s to Borisoglebsk air base in early October. Partly looking at the looming airlift requirements linked with their departure from Afghanistan, Australia and the UK added lone Boeing C-17s to their eets in 2012, while Norway swiftly acquired a replacement for the C-130J lost in a fatal accident in March. Canberra also retired its last aged C-130Hs, as its rst of 10 Alenia Aermacchi C-27J Spartans entered nal assembly. In the rotorcraft sector, the US Army has formally rebranded its Block III productionstandard Apache Longbow the AH-64E, and potential buyers such as India and Indonesia are already eyeing the type. The early days of 2013 will determine whether the DoD will advance with key programmes such as the F-35 as intended, or have future budget reductions hurt equipment plans made by it and many of its allies.
