VALUE OF JOINT CARRYING OUT OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

As it is represented, economic gains are not the basic motive of participation in the international cooperation of space firms of the West; joint programs do not provide to partners of decided advantages before those who has preferred the national decision. International projects do not maintain comparison (on financial and economic parametres) with licence manufacture, joint release, purchases on the compensatory basis, relieving of necessity of impressive expenses for research and development.

In these conditions key value for the governments, national. The branch complexes, the separate firms participating in MNPK, have joint carrying out of research and development, development of high technology and - on this basis - modern space manufacture, and also transfer to other branches of the received results.

Obviously, the superiority of one state (over another () in industrial output or, for example, in the sizes of the income per capita at all does not mean that the country And will have over the country technological advantage in all branches of a research-and-production complex. It is possible to name the whole directions of perspective technology where ' small ' France or Great Britain are obvious leaders on a global scale. for France it, for example, high-speed trains, the atomic power station, some kinds of telematics and a telephony. Undoubtedly, there is a possibility statistically objectively to display a technological condition of the state, taking, say, for a basis volume of expenses on research and development per capita, but researches can have and the lowest effect, and, anyway, the USA or Japan at equal relative indicators in absolute figures spend for research and development immeasurably more than the European continent countries. These reasons are quite applicable and to national space complexes. Some obvious questions from here follow: international cooperation in the space industry between big and small (A-B) the states is how much effective; between the equal states (Б-Б1) and, in a general plan, under what conditions joint programs surpass the national in technological return?

Undoubtedly, for cooperation on a line And - it would be possible to name various incentive motives of the technological, economic or military-political maintenance, and at very big rupture in technological potentials the bases to consider international cooperation research-and-production at all disappear. The joint projects undertaken by the West European countries with participation of the countries of South East Asia and Pacific pool are that, for example: the regional plane ' KASA-NURTANIO СН-235 ' (Spain - Indonesia), the helicopter ' Aerospasjal ПЛ-120 ' (France - China-Singapore). These programs it is necessary to consider as ' joint release '.
