台湾于2019年通过特别预算,向美国采购66架F-16V战机,总金额约2472亿新台币。此项军购案被称为“凤翔专案”,旨在提升台湾空中防御能力。
(德国之声中文网)台湾2019年向美国采购的首批66架F-16V战机陆续抵台,週五(10月2日)中午有2架率先抵达位于东部的台东空军志航基地。这是台湾时隔29年首度迎来新的采购战机。
台湾国防部长顾立雄在立法院受访时表示,“当然不会在年底之前只有这2架交付”,后续具体的交付时程将与美方专案办公室协调。
这2架战机是由洛克希德马丁(Lockheed Martin)所制造;8月中旬自美国得州起飞,随后在夏威夷加油整备。据《南华早报》等媒体9月初的报道,2架战机原本预计8月底就会抵达台湾,却因故在夏威夷滞留许久,外界猜测可能跟技术或天候问题有关。台美官方皆未证实这2架F-16V延宕交付的原因。
2019年底,台湾立法院通过《新式战机采购特别预算》,编列2020年至2026年共约新台币2472亿元的预算,向美国购买66架F-16V。美方原本预计2023年交付2架,到2026年就要全数交付。部分台湾在野党人士对军购延宕提出质疑,要求政府应盘点并公开说明还有哪些武器尚未到位。
F-16V抵达台东前夕,一名37岁的台中民众Kimi Chi为了拍摄军机抵台的画面,特地前往现场。谈到延迟交付,他向法新社表示,“好事多磨……在硬件能力上,一定会有所提升”。一位57岁的前空军军人Eric Chan则说,这些部署在台东的战机将扮演非常重要的防御角色,“来自中共的威胁一直存在,所以我们绝对需要强化防卫能力”。
此F-16V军购案被称为“凤翔专案”。F-16V配有更先进的航电、武器和雷达系统,有助于强化台湾的空中防御体系;若加上这66架新战机,台湾总计将有超过200架F-16系列战机。另有一项“凤展专案”,著重于升级台湾现有的F-16A/B机队性能。
新战机交付之际,恰逢美中领袖的华府“特习会”落幕不久。今年5月,两国也在北京举行过“特习会”,当时美国总统特朗普受访时称对台军售是美中谈判“很好的筹码”,引发部分舆论担忧他可能会为维持跟中国关系稳定,而延宕对台军售。不过,美国驻中大使庞德伟(David Perdue)9月27日否认此说法。
此前,美国于去年底通过约110亿美元的对台军售,是有史以来规模最大,但有另一批140亿美元的军售案迟迟未获特朗普批准。
针对F-16V战机交付,路透社、台湾中央社等媒体引述美国国务院发言人回应,美国对台政策没有改变,坚守以《台湾关系法》、美中三公报及《六项保证》为基础的“一中政策”。该发言人还表示,美方“持续和印太地区的朋友及盟友站在一起,以推进共同的繁荣、安全及价值观,这包括台湾”。
依照美国的《台湾关系法》,美国政府有义务提供防卫武器给台湾,协助台湾维持自卫能力。中国政府一贯反对美国出售武器给台湾,多次要求美方“停止武装台湾的危险行径”。台湾政府则认为,面对中国侵台企图,且持续派军机、军舰侵扰台湾海空域,台湾有必要强化国防实力。
