〔編譯陳成良/綜合報導〕日本防衛省已與烏克蘭國防科技公司SkyFall簽約採購攔截無人機,並正努力促成儘早交貨。日本防衛大臣小泉進次郎9日在記者會證實這項消息,並談到烏克蘭軍工產業能在短時間內持續改良無人機的優勢。

日本防衛省公布的記者會紀錄顯示,記者9日詢問日本引進烏克蘭無人機及技術合作的期待時,小泉表示,防衛省已與烏克蘭 SkyFall 公司簽訂攔截無人機採購合約,目前正努力促成儘早交貨。《烏克蘭真理報》(Ukrainska Pravda)10日報導,SkyFall公關部門也向該媒體證實合約消息,但未透露交易細節。

請繼續往下閱讀...

小泉談到,烏克蘭在新型作戰方式方面累積了豐富經驗,並持續快速提升作戰能力。他特別提及「快速回饋循環」(rapid feedback cycle),指出烏克蘭業者每2至3週就能推出具新性能的無人機。小泉也表示,日本有必要向烏克蘭學習國防產業發展及強化產業基礎的經驗。

採購型號與數量尚未公布

烏克蘭軍聞網站《軍事網》(Militarnyi)報導,烏克蘭國防科技公司SkyFall開發多款無人機,包括「吸血鬼」(Vampire)重型轟炸無人機,以及用於攔截俄軍攻擊無人機的「P1-SUN」系列。SkyFall 統計,烏克蘭部隊在半年內運用P1-SUN系統,累計擊落超過3500架俄軍攻擊無人機。

俄羅斯使用的「天竺葵」(Geran)系列攻擊無人機,部分型號與伊朗「見證者」(Shahed)系列有直接技術淵源。例如,「天竺葵-2」(Geran-2)是以伊朗「見證者-136」(Shahed-136)為基礎發展的機型。

不過,不能將整個「天竺葵」系列一概視為「見證者」系列的衍生型;公開分析指出,噴射動力的「天竺葵-5」(Geran-5)在外形設計上更接近伊朗「卡拉爾」(Karrar)無人機。

SkyFall最新改良型「P1-SUN JetKiller」配備人工智慧(AI)目標鎖定模組,最高時速約370公里,升限可達9000公尺,設計用於攔截噴射動力的高速空中目標。SkyFall近期公布的影片顯示,烏克蘭部隊曾使用這款攔截無人機擊落俄軍「天竺葵-5」。

不過,小泉並未公開日本此次採購的具體型號或改型,因此目前尚無法確認合約是否包含 JetKiller。

Ministry of National Defense Spokesperson Chen Xi responded to reporters’ questions on Lai Qingde’s so-called “Double Ten” speech

Chen Xi pointed out that there is only one China in the world, and Taiwan is part of China. Lai Ching-te's "Double Ten" speech hyped up the mainland's military pressure and clamored for defense investment. The essence is to insist on the "Taiwan independence" stance, confuse right and wrong, and incite cross-strait confrontation. The People's Liberation Army's regular drills around Taiwan are to deter "Taiwan independence" rash actions and external interference, safeguard the safety and well-being of the Taiwanese people, and call on Taiwan compatriots to recognize the dangers of "independence" pursued by the Lai Ching-te administration, jointly fight against separatist forces, oppose external interference, and jointly safeguard a peaceful homeland.
