Italian Air Force F-35 Scramble • Keflavík

Click to subscribe! bit.ly/subAIRBOYD
Italian Air Force F-35 scramble training. The Italian Air Force’s 32nd Wing, with six F-35 aircraft, has recently assumed responsibility for the NATO air policing mission in Icelandic skies. Iceland does not have a full range of air defence assets, so NATO Allies, in conjunction with the Icelandic authorities, maintain a periodic presence of Allied fighter aircraft at Keflavík Airport.

Wonder if they are getting them up quicker than Typoon ?? Sure they can fire the EF up before the pilot gets in . F35 should have that .

[@LRRPFco52]

Typhoon has 2 engines, more moving parts, more legacy control systems that are more prone to failure, although it is more reliable than the Tornado for sure. Alert start-up times are competitive and usually come down to the units, not set in stone so much based on type unless you have some albatross.

F35 is the best right excellent right now in the mountains inbad conditions because they can lived up if needed 👍

[@S-early-user]

Can anyone speak towards the components of an Italian F-35? Are they stock models or customized?

[@LRRPFco52]

Italy is the European assembly line for their F-35As and F-35Bs. Subcomponents and airframe are standard. Japan has an assembly line too for JSF-B and JSF-A. Fort Worth makes As, Bs, and Cs.

[@FreeTurtleboy]

What if the vehicle broke down?? ....... Back in the days.....early 80's Pilot's slept in the Controlled area. I guess times a changing.

[@donkoh5738]

I'm curious how long a typical, normal-state F35 Scramble process would take, from alarm sounded to wheels up? 15 min? 20 ?? Moreover, curious if certain variants of the F-35 might have slower or faster scramble response to flight than other variants?

[@Locutus494]

A normal launch is not the same thing. For an alert launch, you are skipping a lot of steps, checks, and tests that you would do for a normal sortie. There is an entire different checklist for normal startup than for an alert startup. For an alert, you are only doing the bare minimum pre-flight checks that are absolutely necessary for safety of flight; you're not checking all the mission systems and giving them time to fully startup and run BIT tests before taxiing.

[@donkoh5738]

I fully understand what you are saying. My comment was more directed specifically to the typical scramble time potential of the 3 F-35 variants in particular, as virtually every jet out there operating today has a rough distinct alarm bell to wheels up potential. Not to mention all the different taxiing timeframes built into said estimated time to wheels, say from 30 seconds, to 3-5 minutes of taxiing ?? Note: in this respect, and given that the original scramble training vid was clearly edited to reduce the length in time of the vid showing initial response to take off, I was postulating perhaps 15-20 minutes total on average, even if it skips some steps.

[@Locutus494]

@@donkoh5738 There is no difference between the three variants. There is no reason one should take any longer than the others. That being said, a quick reaction alert or scramble aren't really something that the Navy and Marine Corps do; the active duty Air Force doesn't even really do it much. It's mostly just the Air National Guard; they are the ones who are tasked with the defense of US air space. So you will likely only see F-35As doing this sort of quick reaction alert, since that is the variant the USAF flies, as well as almost all the foreign partners.

[@donkoh5738]

Think foreign users, foreign, not USMC. And yes, USN does have an alert launch requirement for intercept. But Foreign users might operate the F-35A or -35B and require either one to function in a ready alert posture to scramble as a frontline interceptor .

[@CH-pv2rz]

@@Locutus494 The Navy and USMC did hundreds of scrambles in Korea, Vietnam, and Desert storm and the Navy still keeps a pair or armed fighters on the deck at all times on ready alert for launch. And ths USMC keeps an armed F-35B on deck on the amphibs for ready alert as well when in dangerous waters...
