With instability in parts of the Middle East and terrorist strikes targeting Europe, the level of action by allied air arms intensified throughout 2015
A YEAR OF

With multiple nations involved in combat action over

Iraq and Syria, equipment decisions and procurement
plans are of great signicance. We detail the global eet

ith conicts raging in several nations notably Iraq, Syria and

Yemen and with terrorist activity having targeted Western
civilians in Egypt, France and Tunisia, 2015
has been marked by crises and instability.
Moscow increased the pressure within
Syria by deploying a signicant contingent of
combat aircraft and helicopters, before
mounting a major offensive involving not just
these, but also long-range cruise missiles red

from the Caspian Sea and by its strategic

bomber eet. Its intervention complicated the
make-up of an air campaign being staged by
the USA and multiple other nations against
Islamic State militants, and raised the spectre
of a clash between deployed forces.
These tensions reached a new high in late
November, following the downing of a
Russian Sukhoi Su-24 strike aircraft by a
Turkish air force-operated Lockheed Martin
F-16 in what has for several years been the
rarest of events: an air-to-air engagement.

With Moscow subsequently deploying S-400
surface-to-air missiles and arming combat aircraft with air-to-air missiles, pessimists will
fear such an incident could be repeated, in a
theatre which is already on edge due to the
numerous players and their contrasting objectives for the regime in Damascus.
Already the subject of criticism for its annexation of Crimea from Ukraine and continuing to probe NATOs air defences in the
Baltic States, Russias intentions remain hard
to read. Coalition assets are busy responding
to Moscows aircraft from Baltic Air Policing
bases in Estonia and Lithuania, supported by
quick reaction ghters in other locations, including Norway, Poland and Sweden.
Elsewhere during the activity against
Islamic State and other terrorist groups, regional air forces including those of Bahrain,
Jordan, Morocco, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the
United Arab Emirates have participated in
combat, and in some cases lost aircraft.
JOINT EXERCISES
With an operational focus at the forefront for
many air arms, the need to participate in
major exercises has also assumed greater importance. Notable examples during 2015 included NATOs massive Trident Juncture manoeuvres involving more than 36,000
personnel from 30 nations and an Israeli air

Our data shows that only

the North America region
experienced a within-year
total fleet reduction
We record just over 52,100 military aircraft
in active service around the globe, with our
listing showing the eets held by air arms in
some 160 nations. This years eet total represents an increase of just 0.8% from the gures
contained in our directory for 2015.
Of the in-service equipment, the USAs
armed forces account for the largest share,
with just over 26% of the total active inventory; slightly more than 13,700 aircraft. The
bulk of a year-on-year reduction of just over
200 aircraft recorded for Washingtons military can be attributed to the retirement of 130

restructuring. More cuts will follow next year,
but Congressional action has so far saved the
US Air Force from long-threatened reductions
to its Fairchild-Republic A-10 ground-attack
eet.
Our data shows that only the North
America region experienced a within-year
total eet reduction, while the numbers
stayed at in Europe and Latin America. The
biggest increases of 3% each were in the
Middle East and Russia and Commonwealth
of Independent States groupings, while
Asia-Pacic and Africa saw rises of 2%.
SPECIAL-MISSION GROWTH
Fleets Analyzers improved data about types
assigned for a variety of special-mission applications, meanwhile, sees the total number
of such aircraft included rise from 1,866 last
time to 2,047, or by 9.7%.
In addition to the active eet, another 4,500
aircraft are recorded as being the subject of

the subject of pending deals, letters of intent
or national procurement plans.

force-hosted Blue Flag event. The latter attracted the involvement of aircraft from allies
including Greece, Poland and the USA.
Continued instability in parts of the Middle
East is sure to see the existing level of action
maintained, and in all likelihood intensied,
over the coming year. As evidenced by the
late October bombing of a MetroJet Airbus
A321 after departure from Sharm el-Sheikh in
Egypt, the threats posed to aviation by unrest
are very real for airlines also. A total of 224
passengers and crew died as a result of the attack on the Russian-operated aircraft.
For the rst time, our annual overview of
the global military aircraft inventory has been
compiled using just part of the information
contained within Flightglobals Fleets
Analyzer database. Recently launched, this
holds premium-quality data on more than
345,000 aircraft, also including airliners,
rotorcraft and business jets.
Ukraine is experiencing continued unrest

Among the most signicant eet developments of 2015, Lockheeds F-35 can now be
listed as an operational type, with the short
take-off and vertical landing B-model variant
having achieved initial operational capability
(IOC) status with lead user the US Marine
Corps.
Our data shows 26 combat-rated examples
as being in the services inventory, supported
by another 11 aircraft which are allocated as
training assets.
The USAF should follow suit in declaring
IOC readiness towards the end of 2016, with
the conventional take-off and landing F-35A.
Its rst combat-coded pair of Lightning IIs
were received earlier this year in advance of
the development.
Other boosts for the F-35 programme have
included full commitments from Norway and
the UK respectively for 48 and 138 frontline
examples and production examples are
under contract for these nations, plus Israel,
Italy, Japan and the three US services. However, the election of a new government in
Canada has cast doubt on Ottawas long-held
commitment to the type, and Lockheeds rivals are also snifng opportunities to poten-

nations like Belgium.
Against this backdrop, Lockheed and the
US programme ofce can be expected to
mount a major campaign to showcase the
F-35 during 2016, with an appearance at the
Royal International Air Tattoo and
Farnborough air show all but certain.
While the F-35 continues to make progress
towards operational utility, 2015 was a remarkable year for one of the ghter sectors
more proven products. After years of campaign disappointments, Dassault in February
secured its rst export order for the Rafale
then two months later its second. A rst batch
of three, twin-seat examples has been supplied to Egypt, under the nations 24-unit
deal, while Qatar is to acquire 36.

their skills on the single-engined type. The
coming year will see a rst ight of the lead

version being produced rst for Sweden, with

At the heavier end of the spectrum,
Northrop Grumman won selection to build
the USAFs planned eet of 100 long-range
strike bombers, although the award remains
the subject of a challenge from a rejected
Boeing and Lockheed team. If conrmed, the
proposed $80 billion deal will safeguard
Northrops legacy as a bomber manufacturer,
and eventually deliver replacements for the
services veteran Boeing B-52Hs 77 of which
remain in use today and younger B-1Bs.
The airlift sector has seen the C-17 strategic

to nations including Australia, Canada and

AIRLIFT RIVALRY
Discussions over a contract revision covering
future delivery rates and the introduction of
new capabilities must reach a satisfactory outcome if other nations are to follow the seven
launch nations and Malaysia in acquiring the
model. Strong competition will be seen in the
shape of Lockheeds smaller C-130J, with
Atlas operator France having requested the
potential purchase of two of the latter transports and two tankers recently.
Embraers KC-390 took to the air in
February, but did not y again until late
October, partly due to a funding crisis in the
Brazilian defence ministry. Strong progress is
needed if the transport and tanker is to enter
service as planned during 2018. Despite the
challenges facing the company, Antonovs
An-178 also made its debut during 2015, and
was present at the Paris and Dubai air shows.
For the rst time in several years, the spoils
were shared in the tanker sector, with Airbus
Defence & Space taking a four-aircraft contract
in South Korea with the A330 MRTT and
Boeing getting a rst international order for its
767-derived KC-46A, with Japan to take three.
This rivalry will intensify in 2016, as Boeing

growing, with ve nations now operating the
type and Spain to receive its rst example
during 2016.
Greek F-16s participated in multinational exercises with NATO allies and also in Israel
anticipates the receipt of a low-rate initial production decision from the USAF.
Notable retirements in 2015 included the
bulk of the UKs search-and-rescue-tasked
Westland Sea Kings, whose services are being
assumed by civilian aircraft via the Long SAR
programme, and the last of Argentinas
Dassault Mirage III and Mirage 5 ghters. The
latters air force must adapt to degraded capability, as an expected deal to acquire upgraded Kr ghters from Israel Aerospace
Industries failed to reach the contract stage.

Excluded from our listing are 770 military
xed-wing aircraft and helicopters recorded
as dedicated to VIP transport, and 550 for research and development and experimental
activities.
Other exclusions include more than 5,200
aircraft in storage also counting those involved in or awaiting upgrade and pistonengined types, on which our database does
