Financial approval for the UK's main procurement of the Lockheed Martin F-35B Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter (JSF)/Joint Combat Aircraft (JCA) is expected in the next three years, a government minister disclosed on 5 February.

一位政府官员在2月5号透露，对于洛克希德马丁公司F-35B联合打击与战斗战机主要采购计划的财政支持被指望在未来三年中得以到位。

Answering questions in the House of Commons, Philip Dunne, Minister for Defence Equipment, Support, and Technology, said that the financial approval for this main buy, known as Main Gate 5, should be granted in 2017.

为了回答来自英国下议院的问题，菲利普·邓恩，国防装备、支持与科技部门的主管，说此次主要采购计划的财政支持于2017年应该能搞定。

"The UK F-35 programme is scheduled to seek financial approval for its fifth and final main gate in 2017. At this point the overall cost of the programme will be published," Dunne noted.

“英国的F-35计划在2017年得到财政支持（具体次数什么的就不烦了，没必要）。到了那个时候该计划的总体预算就会出来了。”邓恩指出。

With three main gates already passed (Main Gates 1-3 dealt with overall programme strategy and procurement of the initial operational test and evaluation aircraft), Main Gate 4 for the procurement of the first 14 operational aircraft is set to be approved in the coming days.

由于前三项计划已经通过（第1-3项计划主要针对总体计划，内部测试项目和飞机的评估），针对采购14架初始作战飞机的第4项计划也应该很快会通过。

To date, the UK has received two operational test and evaluation (OT&E) aircraft (BK-1 and BK-2), and one training aircraft (BK-3). Another OT&E aircraft (BK-4) is expected to be signed for in the coming months. Once all have been delivered, BK-1, BK-2, and BK-4 will transfer from Eglin Air Force Base (AFB) in Florida to Edwards AFB in California later in 2014, where they will stand up as 17 (Fighter) Squadron for OT&E duties (BK-3 will remain at Eglin AFB as part of the wider training fleet).

目前，英国已经接受了两家测试与评估飞机（OT&E)（也就是好基友BK-1和BK-2），和一架测试用飞机（BK-3)。另一家OT&E飞机也应该在接下来的几天签署（现在估计已经签了吧）。只要这些都完成了交付，BK-1，BK-2和BK-4都会从埃格林顿空军基地被转交到爱德华空军基地（5th最有感情的空军基地之一。。。），在那里将成立专门进行OT&E事务的第17战斗机中队。（不过BK-3会留在埃格林顿空军基地继续进行测试）

The 14 aircraft to be procured under Main Gate 4 will be delivered in 2016 and handed over to 617 'Dambusters' Squadron when it is reactivated at Beaufort Pilot Training Center at Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Beaufort, South Carolina. At this time BK-3 will also be transferred over to the squadron.

第4号项目下的14架战机将会在216年交付并转交给位于波弗特飞行员训练基地的617“水坝破坏者”中队。在这时BK-3也会转移到那里去。

In April 2018, 617 Sqn will transfer its aircraft and personnel back to RAF Marham in Norfolk, UK, and in December 2018 the UK will declare initial operating capability - land (IOC - Land) for its F-35B force.

在2018年4月，617中队将把它的战机和技术人员转移给英国皇家空军；到了2018年十月份英国的F-35B就会获得初始作战能力（IOC）。

The second F-35B unit for the UK has been named as 809 'Immortals' Naval Air Squadron (NAS). Despite their separate Royal Air Force and Royal Navy identities, both 617 Sqn and 809 NAS will be operated as combined units, with a mix of service personnel and pilots.

英国第2支F-35B中队已被命名为809“不朽之神”海军航空兵中队（英国命名就是霸气），不管它们空军和海军的身份有所不同，这两只队伍（617和809）都将接受统一指令，服务人员与飞行员也是共用的。

In 2018, operations from the first of the UK's Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carriers will commence, with a full operating capability (land and maritime) for the F-35B set to be declared in 2023.

到了2018年，英国第一艘伊丽莎白女王级航母的运转将会开始；到了2023年，英军的F-35B计划中也应该有了完全作战能力。

话说5th还是很期待伊丽莎白女王级航母的。。。。。有一点忘了说了，英国将会为两艘航母共配备约138架的F-35B，这是要破财的节奏啊！
