This is an interesting resource on weapons systems prices;everything from SAMs to MPAs. http://nationsdawnofanera.weebly.com/-helicopters.html HAL LCH 30 MN$ HAL Rudra 15 MN$ KA 50 42.5 MN$ KA 52 55 MN$ MI 24 12 MN MI24 D 15 MN MI 28 NE 40 MN MI 35 16 MN ROOIVALK 45 MN AH-1 Cobra 20 MN AH-1W SuperCobra 30 MN AH-1Z Viper 40 MN AH-6 10 MN S Africans,I hope you see why the Rooivalk can't sell. If you produce a light version at 30-50% off you'll find a buyer. I'dve thought the KAF would first go for transport. 3 years back a C 295 was doing circuits above MAB and we all thought a couple were en route,but alas! We need light and medium lifters as of yesterday! Imo,even more than newer FSBs. Ideally,at least 6 C295s and 2 Y8s.hanxi Y8 35 MN$ Shanxi Y9 45 MN$ c 295 35 mn C 235 25 MN$

The high price of the Rooivalk is because of the low production nr's. Its called economies of scale. If it was produced as planned 36+ airframes the price would have been lower. That's one of the reasons they need a order of at least 60-80 to get production started again. You see the same thing every time the US congress cuts the order for the F-35 or f-22. The unit price goes up instantly. The development of the aircraft were actually done extremely cheaply compared to other A-helos. A colleague of mine who worked at Atlas at the time told me when the Americans came over for a visit they asked about how much it cost to develop. They didn't believe the nr. Atlas gave them and felt a bit insulted because they thought they were joking. kikuyu1: 1 Like |

61mech: True but look at the Indian LCH 50% cheaper than yours. My point remains: you should've gone for a more basic lite design cause now you're competing with the Apache and Euro Tiger,pushed by heavy weight global politics. Here's what one of your websites says: So, an alternative is to reinvest in the Rooivalk programme, order another 12, but to a new, more modern, yet simpler and cheaper, standard, and subsquently refurbish the existing aircraft to the same standard. [b]This ‘Rooivalk Mk 2’ would also produce a much cheaper aircraft, with a unit cost of less than $20-million. [/b]That would be financially and technically much more appealing to many developing countries.http://www.engineeringnews.co.za/article/what-went-wrong-with-the-rooivalk-2007-06-08-1 |

kikuyu1:Remember it was designed to operate in high threat environments. It wasn't designed for the export market. In terms of capabilities the Rooivalk can't be compared to the LCH. |

iblawi:Normally I would not comment on Kenyan matters but apart from what my Nigerian brother said, it is wrong for you to put down your Country's armed forces like this, they are far from home in one of the most difficult countries on earth trying to defeat a determined foe, mistakes will be made by Military commanders that is inevitable , it however does not mean the whole KDF is culpable , remember " One battle does not win a war" They ( KDF) will learn from it and move on. 4 Likes |
