〔記者吳哲宇/綜合報導〕美國通用原子公司(General Atomics)提出新型長程精準打擊構想,計畫將原本用於空戰的AIM-174B「神槍手」(Gunslinger)飛彈改造成「子母彈藥」,在彈體前端搭載7枚小型Vektrex滑翔導引彈藥,讓戰機發射單枚飛彈後,就能在遠距離釋放多枚子彈藥,分別攻擊不同目標,進一步擴大防區外打擊能力。
軍聞網站《The War Zone》報導,通用原子在法國巴黎舉行的2026年歐洲海軍展(Euronaval)展示相關概念圖,旗下電磁系統部門(GA-EMS)證實,正研究將Vektrex縮小並整合至空射或地面發射飛彈,以滿足長程精準火力需求。
Vektrex最早於2023年公開,原名「長程機動彈藥」(LRMP),是一款具備可展開式彈翼的無動力滑翔導引彈藥,主要供155公厘榴彈砲發射。通用原子指出,Vektrex具備抗GPS干擾導航能力,能攻擊固定及移動目標,由39倍徑榴彈砲發射時射程超過120公里,使用52倍徑砲管則可超過200公里。
此次構想選用的AIM-174B,是美國海軍由SM-6「標準六型」飛彈衍生的空射版本,2024年正式公開,目前定位為長程空對空飛彈。由於SM-6本身具備對地及對海打擊能力,通用原子認為AIM-174B也有潛力改裝成遠距精準打擊武器。
根據概念圖,單枚AIM-174B可搭載7枚Vektrex衍生型子彈藥,F/A-18E/F「超級大黃蜂」戰機若掛載2枚,就能攜帶14枚子彈藥;最多掛載4枚時,則可達28枚。由於SM-6公開射程超過320公里,加上空射飛彈的高度、速度優勢,以及子彈藥釋放後的滑翔距離,未來有望從數百公里外攻擊敵方縱深目標,甚至同時打擊多艘軍艦。
此外,通用原子也評估將相關子彈藥整合至艦射或陸射SM-6,其他大型飛彈也可能成為載台,藉此增加單次發射可攻擊的目標數量。
不過,通用原子強調,這項技術目前仍處於公司內部概念研究階段,尚無正式客戶支持,也未完成飛彈整合及實際發射驗證。由於高速飛行時釋放子彈藥涉及氣動、熱應力及尋標器耐受問題,仍需進一步工程開發。
通用原子表示,現階段將優先推動155公厘Vektrex進入採購階段,未來再依客戶需求評估飛彈搭載構型,為長程精準打擊提供更多選擇。

Israel's Rafael Advanced Defense Systems has launched a new type of "Super Ice" long-range cruise missile, equipped with a 454-kilogram warhead, equipped with artificial intelligence, anti-jamming and low-altitude precision guidance capabilities, and can be launched from air, land and sea platforms.

On the 10th, a Brave Eagle advanced trainer aircraft from the Air Force Flight Training Department overshot the runway due to abnormal braking and a tire puncture. Fortunately, the crew was safe. Air Force Chief of Staff Li Qingran said today that there have been nine braking-related incidents of this type of aircraft in the past three years, and this is the most serious mechanical failure accident. The entire fleet has been grounded for inspection.

India's navy has participated in joint exercises across the globe over a two-month span, signaling expanded maritime ambitions while raising questions about domestic submarine shortages and home waters defense.

The Japan Defense Equipment Agency displayed the research and development results of three military unmanned ground vehicles, weighing less than 1 ton, 1 to 2 tons and 5 to 10 tons respectively. The largest model adopts a low crawler body and may be equipped with heavy sensors, supplies and even weapons in the future. This shows that Japan is shifting from relying on foreign systems to independently developing special military unmanned vehicles.

The U.S. Department of the Air Force issued a request for information to evaluate the deployment of up to five military space vehicles in the cislunar space to support military mission requirements by the end of 2029. This move marks the extension of the U.S. military's space defense layout from the earth's orbit to the periphery of the moon, and is related to the background of the U.S.-China moon landing race.

The U.S. Army is accelerating the development of the "Mobile Short-Range Air Defense System Phase 4" (M-SHORAD Increment 4), which adopts a modular modular design that can be installed on light tactical vehicles, unmanned ground vehicles or deployed independently. It integrates radar, missiles and cannons to deal with threats from drone swarms and low-cost attack drones. It aims to complete the first batch of battalion-level unit equipment before the end of 2029.
