SUIZA APLAZA DEFINITIVAMENTE LA COMPRA DE UN NUEVO CAZA/SWITZERLAND DELAYS FIGHTER REPLACEMENT INDEFINETLY

El ministerio de defensa suizo, ha aplazado con caracter definitivo la decisión para la compra de un nuevo caza. Se había fijado un presupueto de unos 2.1 billones de USD. El consejo federal Suizo, desea sanear las maltrechas arcas de las Fuerzas Armadas. Esto contradice el anuncio gubernamental de Octubre de 2009, reafirmando la decisión de comprar un avión para sustituir parcialmente a sus 54 Northrop F-5E/F Tiger II. Probablemente el programa siga adelante en la segunda mitad de 2010.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Swiss defence minister has called for the country's CHF2.2 billion (USD2.1 billion) fighter procurement programme to be delayed indefinitely.
According to the statement, DDPS head Ueli Maurer asked the Swiss Federal Council in October 2009 to "put off the purchase of new fighter aircraft for the time being" and instead divert the funds to the cash-strapped army.
This is at odds with a government announcement also made in October that reaffirmed Switzerland's commitment to purchasing a partial replacement for the air force's 54 Northrop F-5E/F Tiger II.
The council was originally due to approve the programme in July 2009 but this was put back until the release of a security policy report by the DDPS into the issue. The release of this report, which is due to look at the options available and review the fighter programme in the context of the armed forces' current critical financial situation, was itself delayed from December 2009 to the second quarter of 2010.
