Officially, it's a tri-national program under GIGO (GCAP international Government Organisation) called GCAP (Global Combat Air Programme).

Tempest is the British governments' internal name of the GCAP manned fighter.

Japan is currently internally calling it "Reppu," which translates to "strong wind" or "gale".

Not sure what name Italy is using.

None, since they're not looking at India to manufacture or provide technology assistance.

They want India as a buyer to bolster the program's long-term prospects on the global market.

There isn't a snowballs chance in hell either the UK or Japan would let India have real tech transfer like the special sauce needed for jet engines or stealth airframes.

I think it's like they are projecting the spic upon the jeets.
And sorry for going a bit off-topic but I suppose there is a matter of psychological study on jeets when compared to spics because their circumstances where somewhat similar, the average spic has come to terms with his spanish ascendancy due their wars of independence, so yeah, they are part spanish and part native, in the end they freed themselves fighting actual wars and aside from some schizo lefties and alt-rights came to terms with their own background, so even natives were "good enough to eventually mix with the spanish", in fact Spain considered their american territories part of Spain, not just colonies, the jeets on the other hand, most of them don't have a single drop of european blood, a lack of interest in miscegenation is a collective way of saying from UK "you are not even worth mating with", no amount of tech transfer including nuclear and space technologies can overcome that, and they basically became independent by begging and threatening to kill themselves.
You can see the effects of this on their psyche on how they are so desperate to save face whenever they screw over their military operations, or things like trying to look like they defeated USAF when doing some joint exercises and what no, throw in their caste system and you have a complete emotional mess.
Tl;dr: jeets are historically and collectively traumatized.

there was a subclass of interbred bongs and pajeets
but they fucked of to the rest of the anglo sphere, got murdered by the jeets or got reabsorbed by the great poo mass
regardless they where such a small fraction of the population that they don't really mater
but that's an other part of jeet insecurity, they where kept down by like a tiny, tiny number of bongs when you look at their population.
no it was other jeets keeping them in control like the amritsar gene pool improvement. One bong with a swagger stick and 50 pajeet seppois killed 500 pajeets in one go

India aligns itself with Russia though, and buys Russian weapons, the only real difference is Pakistan swapped to the Chinese side, so India will probably look to the west for tech and weapons instead, which means they will probably want to cut off Russia for that, but they won't.

You're going to be disappointed when we start arguing for 7th, because vertical surfaces aren't really the main difference between these arbitrary distinctions of plane generations, so we're probably going to see 6th, 7th and maybe even 9th gen with vertical stabilisers.

The seethe against bongs and colonialism is only one side of their inadequacy. The real problem for them is that the caste mentality is deeply, almost genetically ingrained into them to the point their very thought processes are informed by it, and yet, the whole world sees them all as the same breed of people. They cant make sense of society where there's no designated untouchables or priestly, scholar class. They dont know how to operate as a high ranking person that does lowly tasks personally, or a low ranking person that holds higher standards, thats why they suck at hygiene, work ethic, meritocracy, honesty, and so on, they are either too good to bother or not good enough to care. They are overly submissive to those they might perceive as outwardly strong and shamelessly take advantage of anyone weaker. The caste system simply makes them incompatible with western society.

Just to illustrate about un-serious the GCAP program is: first phase funding is supposed to be 5.2b which is something like 12% of the the DEVELOPMENT cost ALONE โ€” not a single jet produced โ€” of the F-22 program. Itโ€™s made even worse by the fact that by simple nature of being a group effort by several companies and governments means it will be less efficient that the F-22 program. This program is nothing more than some light welfare payouts for aerospace contractors in exchange for these governments to claim they are being competitive. The sooner everyone here wakes up to reality the better off youโ€™ll be.

The why do they constantly act like they have an axe to grind? I don't think any post-colonial country hates its old masters as much as India does.
Yes, Indians prefer to be pragmatic, but you can behave discordantly with your feelings. I hated my old boss but was nothing but polite. Still wouldn't piss on him if he were on fire. It's like how the Chinese will happily vacation in Kyoto but would also cheer if they heard about Japan getting their shit pushed in in some fashion, or how a Russian can live relatively unbothered in Europe despite the deep levels of distrust going both ways. People can easily tamp down their uglier emotions when they feel like they are getting something better in return.

The poos like Israel for a few reasons. First of all, it's because (like India) Israel used to be controlled by the bloody benchod Britishers but """kicked them out""". The second is, quite simply, because Israel makes Muslims worldwide foam at the mouth and Hindus are as butthurt at Islam in general as they are at the British and for similar reasons. Third, it's because there's a degree of military cooperation between the two countries. That's really about it, but it seems like more than it is because of Modi's Hindu strongman (lel) act and the pajeet equivalent of /ptg/-tier screamers in organized shilling operations.

For their part, Israelis have a decent trade and intelligence relationship with India but apart from that it's almost entirely just the standard international politeness. Aside from when a leader of one country is condemning an Islamic terror attack on the other, Israel is vaguely aware that India exists. The Wikipedia page for Israeli-Indian relations is so stained with jeet fingerprints that it's almost unreadable; standard, unremarkable stuff like scientists from one country attending a conference in the other is padded out to a full paragraph to give the impression that the two countries are tied at the hip.

Both involve wind, Timothy-kun. Arashi is a common word and reppลซ is literary, and naming your plane "storm" sounds lame. Tempests are also windy. As such, reppu is a great transliteration of the spirit of the word tempest, and follows a tradition of Japanese fighters receiving that name.

They tried in the early 2000s to get in on the F-22 production, but the US said no. Japan took that personally and have been working on R&D/prototype projects ever since.

1) They already do. What do you think the F-15 and F-35 are?
2) The US will almost certainly not offer their fifth gen to Japan. They tried to buy the F-22 and not only did they get refused, but congress went as far as making a bill to ban such a thing.
3) "buddy buddy" is a sanitized way of saying it. They're the subordinate. As one example, we control half the airspace over their capital. Their armed forces need to ask us for permission to use it, and commercial flights are banned from using it at all. SOFA members enjoy many rights Japanese don't have in their own country. It's not like we have a shadow government, but they have to make a lot of concessions to keep the alliance. They can kick us out, but then they will have to go it alone while the 500 lb gorilla of China stares them down.

F-22 export was banned in 1998 and had nothing to do with Japan and was more in response to Israel passing technology to China, including the IAI Lavi which was heavily derived from the F-16. It kickstarted China's modern aircraft program.

Japan's sixth-gen fighter program initially did involve the US, particularly Lockheed Martin, but Japan abandoned that route in favor of partnering with Italy and Britain, the latter having its own program. It was in response to US restrictions. I've made threads on this years ago:

https://desuarchive.org/k/thread/56168129/#q56168129
> The Defense Ministry in 2020 chose MHI as a core developer of the new jet, as well as Lockheed Martin Corp. of the United States for technical support.
> But the talks became tangled after Japan asked for a degree of freedom in terms of renovation and information disclosure because it wants to export the jets in the future. The United Sates showed reluctance, citing confidentiality in defense and security information. Ultimately, Japan switched to Britain as a partner to develop fighter jets. **
> The Japanese government said joint development by the three nations will reduce costs and help to broaden the market for exports.
> To expand its scope of acceptable exports to include the aircraft, the Japanese government is expected to revise the guidelines in the โ€œThree Principles of Transfer of Defense Equipment and Technology.โ€ Under current guidelines, finished products that can be exported are limited to โ€œrescue, transport, vigilance, monitoring and minesweeping.โ€

Japan wanting to export the jet as widely possible is also why you're not going to see France, Germany and Sweden part of the program anytime soon. So, it would be very odd if somehow India got involved instead.

Not to mention, the report of Japan apparently inviting India directly contradicts reports from two months ago which claimed that India asked to join and Japan rejected it.

That's bullshit. Sweden has extensively rejected arms sales to many countries over human rights concerns. France has strategic interests and is also allied with Greece and India. France is not going to sell arms to countries that run contrary to its interests.

Take Turkey for example. Italy wanted to sell it SAMP/T missiles, but France rejected it. France has an arms embargo on Turkey. UK, Spain and Italy have wanted to sell the Eurofighter Typhoon to Turkey for years, but Germany had rejected it for years and is still delaying it going through. France wouldn't if it was also part of EF. Are you aware there's also rumblings about France abandoning the FCAS program like it did the Eurofighter program?

You can bet your ass if Azerbaijan, Pakistan or Libya wanted to buy the jet, France and Germany wouldn't sell it. Italy and Britain are both stakeholders in Azerbaijan's energy sector. Both have arms deals with Turkey and growing strategic ties. France would never sell the jet to Turkey or Azerbaijan. Armenia and Greece both have massive influence in France. Their Senate even voted to recognize Artsakh as an independent state. You're clearly clueless about geopolitical dynamics.

The GCAP isn't going to be ready tomorrow. It'll take several years, perhaps even a few decades. The presumption is that Japan's laws will have changed by then. They've been slowly relaxing their defense export laws over the past few years.

>France will sell theirs to anybody whose check clears, within reason.
France sold Mirage fighter jets to Pakistan in the late-1960s and in the mid-1990s but stopped selling it parts and repairs. Pakistan had to scrape together Mirage units from other countries, including to cannibalize for parts. France has an arms embargo on Pakistan, and vote on India's side at the UN and everywhere else.

If Algeria wanted to buy the fighter jets, France would reject it too.

France has its set of customers that it will and won't sell to, and Britain has a different set of customers it will and won't sell to. Britain, Japan and Italy have their own geopolitical interests, and they're distinct from France, Sweden and Germany's. Each state has its own distinct relationships and priorities based on domestic and international politics.

This is the most retarded post I've ever seen, including on /pol/. I'm sorry about your failed state and that your best and brightest leave immediately the moment they can to become doctors in the west, but you're a nation of a billion people with a 4000-year civilization that Britain completely ruled over just last century and that was conquered by a tea shipping concern. Britain could still probably solo you into submission in a conventional war on your own teritory and would annihilate you in a nuclear one. The best things you ever gave the world are tea (which is a plant that happened to grow and be cultivated there) and Buddhism, which was a reaction to your vile, anti-scientific, unintellectual, and repressive caste system, and Buddhism was unfortunately not cultivated there but rejected by your people while embraced by your East Asian neighbors, who all benefitted from it and still do to this day.

I hold no animus against you, but claiming that you are strong or superior on the internet does nothing to improve your systemic problems or elevate your largely destitute populace.

If you took the example of your neighbor China, you would elevate your people out of serfdom in order to become a great power instead of insisting that your ancestry detetermines your social class and that those who have nothing deserve no better than they get, and therefore the standard of living never improves.
