《国家利益》最近好像噩梦比较多,MSN一连给俺推好些篇,吓得俺也要做噩梦了。就说好梦要分享,噩梦?也要赶紧传下去哈。
美国海军的潜艇噩梦不会轻易结束
摘要:由于预算限制和国防工业基础紧张,美国海军将把下一代 SSN(X) 攻击型潜艇的建造时间推迟到 2040 年代。
-这一决定与削减弗吉尼亚级潜艇计划同时做出,该计划已经急需增加数量。
- Block V 弗吉尼亚级潜艇是一种高度先进和性能强大的潜艇,据称足以应对当前和不久的将来的冲突,特别是在中国附近具有挑战性的沿海地区。
-批评人士建议海军应该集中精力加强和扩大现有的弗吉尼亚级舰队,而不是投资昂贵且长期的 SSN(X) 项目,因为该项目被认为与迫在眉睫的威胁不太相关。
地主家也没钱了,咋办哩?
The U.S. Navy's Submarine Nightmare Won't Be Easy to End
Summary: The U.S. Navy is delaying the construction of its next-generation SSN(X) attack submarine to the 2040s, citing budget constraints and a strained defense industrial base.
-This decision comes alongside cuts to the Virginia-class submarine program, which is already in dire need of increased numbers.
-The Block V Virginia-class, a highly advanced and capable submarine, is argued to be sufficient for current and near-future conflicts, particularly in the challenging littoral zones near China.
-Critics suggest that the Navy should focus on enhancing and expanding its existing Virginia-class fleet rather than investing in the expensive and long-term SSN(X) program, which is seen as less relevant to imminent threats.

然后呢,就是弗吉尼亚级的噩梦刚刚开始,这可怎么好?
海军的弗吉尼亚级潜艇噩梦才刚刚开始
美国造船厂面临着严峻挑战,因为他们难以满足对新战舰的需求,尤其是弗吉尼亚级潜艇,这对于保持海军优势至关重要,特别是在与中国等国家发生潜在冲突时。
-尽管获得了大量政府资金,但这些造船厂仍因缺乏竞争、技术工人短缺和基础设施不堪重负而受到阻碍,使重要军用和民用船舶的生产变得复杂。从历史上看,美国也面临过类似的挑战,就像它在第一次世界大战期间通过成立美国航运委员会来应对这些挑战一样,当代可能需要一个类似的机构来振兴该国的造船能力。
-这种振兴对于美国海军保持其作战准备和能力至关重要,特别是在印度太平洋地区,以应对中国日益增强的军事进步。
The Navy's Virginia-Class Submarine Nightmare Is Just Getting Started
America's shipyards face a critical challenge as they struggle to meet the demands for new warships, notably the Virginia-class submarines, crucial for maintaining naval superiority, especially in potential conflicts with nations like China.
