Kuwait enhances fighter force
12 November 2012
...
At the same time, Kuwait continues to explore the possibility of acquiring new fighters to replace its two squadrons of F/A-18s (No.s 9 and 25 at Ahmed Al Jaber airbase), and recently evaluated a pair of Italian air force Eurofighter Typhoons from the 4° Stormo that were deployed to Kuwait during July.
Despite very high ambient temperatures (reportedly 53°C) and high winds (40mph), the Typhoon impressed, though some of the industry personnel involved were surprised at the Kuwaiti emphasis on the carriage and delivery of dumb bombs.
Kuwaiti interest in a new fighter began a few years ago and then-French President Nicolas Sarkozy said that discussions had begun on the sale of between 14 and 28 Rafales during his visit to the Gulf in February 2008. But, in March 2010, the proposed Rafale buy was derailed

The first vertical tail fin to be built in Abu Dhabi for an ATR regional airliner has been delivered by Strata from its factory in Al Ain.
...
The completion also confirms the Mubadala-owned aerostructures company as a direct supplier to Alenia Aermacchi, which makes the highly successful ATR turboprop.
Indeed,
the Alenia Aermacchi contract could lead to potential work on the Eurofighter project, should the UAE Air Force select it as its next-generation strike aircraft, said Maurizio De Mitri, the senior vice president of the Italian planemaker.

Sobre el CAPTOR:
the ECR-90-C began flying on board Eurofighter development aircraft 5 (DA5) in February 1997. Even at this early stage, the trial-standard system proved capable of detecting fighter-sized targets at ranges of more than 160km (100 miles), with range accuracy within 10 metres (32 feet) and an angular accuracy of less than one milliradian (roughly 0.05°).
Although CAPTOR uses a mechanically steered antenna, it is revolutionary in concept, with four high-precision, high-torque, samarium-cobalt motors driving a low inertia non-counterbalanced antenna, which allows extremely high scanning speeds. As a result, the radar can interleave different operating modes, such as air and ground mapping, which is unusual for a system without an electronically scanned, phased array antenna.
Su capacidad de solapar modos AA y AS dada su elevadísima tasa de escaneo y capacidad de proceso, algo que hasta entonces sólo era posible con antenas de barrido electrónico.
