衛星影像顯示沙國擴大飛彈生產 專家判斷師法中國技術

Quick Look

路透報導,衛星影像顯示沙烏地阿拉伯在杜瓦迪米擴建飛彈生產設施,新增大型澆鑄坑等設備。專家分析該廠區特徵與中國飛彈工廠相似,推測沙國在美國限制軍售下,轉向北京尋求長程固態燃料彈道飛彈技術支援。

AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

由於華盛頓長期限制向利雅德出售長程飛彈系統,沙國被認為轉向北京尋求支援。

路透報導,衛星影像顯示,因中東衝突陷入安全困境的沙烏地阿拉伯,從去年開始著手擴建飛彈生產工廠,製造飛行距離更遠、威力更加強大的固態燃料彈道飛彈,採用的技術則可能來自中國。

美國智庫「外交政策研究所」(FPRI)研究員萊爾(Sam Lair)與杜伊茨曼(Michael Duitsman),分析由美國商業衛星影像公司「星球實驗室」拍攝,去年4月至今年9月期間在沙國首都利雅德以西200公里的杜瓦迪米(al-Duwadimi)設施衛星影像。

他們發現,該地區出現的一棟新建體設有澆鑄坑,用於將燃料混合物灌入飛彈發動機外殼並等待凝固。周圍設有圍牆保護鄰近的其它建築免遭意外爆炸損害。規模較既有的工廠澆鑄坑大上一倍。另一座新建物則可能用於儲存燃料原料或已完工的飛彈零組件。

兩名研究員與「國際戰略研究所」(IISS)和研究機構「CNA」的專家們向路透指出,沙國飛彈部隊的組成結構顯示出,杜瓦迪米廠區仰賴的是中國技術,廠區特徵也與中國飛彈工廠相似。

由於華盛頓長期限制向利雅德出售長程飛彈系統,外界認為沙國轉而向北京尋求支援。萊爾判斷,沙國如今正在生產的飛彈或許是固態燃料的「東風-15」,杜瓦迪米的新廠則可能生產「東風-21」或相近種類的長程飛彈。

Open Questions

  • 中國政府是否直接參與了該設施的技術轉移?
  • 該工廠實際生產的飛彈型號為何?

160 kilometers away from Taiwan! The U.S. military moves to the northernmost island of the Philippines and transports ammunition from South Korea

In April this year, the US military conducted a drill on the rapid deployment of the Haimas system on Ipayat Island in the Philippines and demonstrated its ability to mobilize ammunition across regions. In addition, the Taifeng medium-range missile system is currently deployed in Okinawa. The United States has stated that there is no clear withdrawal date, aiming to strengthen long-term training and forward deployment capabilities with allies.

Former senior executive of the Japan Self-Defense Force: The bottom line of competition with China includes the first island chain

Keihide Yoshida, president of the Japan Defense University, argued in the "Mount Fuji Dialogue" that competition with China has three non-negotiable bottom lines: the first island chain, nuclear deterrence and Western advanced technological advantages, and emphasized that Japan cannot be reduced to a subordinate function in U.S.-China relations.
