〔記者涂鉅旻/綜合報導〕義大利軍工大廠李奧納多(Leonardo)持續嘗試各式反無人機武器,將原本裝在軍艦上的40公厘艦砲搬到陸地測試。外國軍聞網站近日披露,外界近期直擊李奧納多「Hystrix 40 ADS」陸基反無人機火砲的動態,顯示這套以40公厘艦砲為基礎、射程約4.5公里的系統,已經進入測試階段,力拼今年底前完成原型火砲目標。
外國軍聞網站「Defense Blog」報導,李奧納多今年2月首度公開Hystrix家族,並將其納入「Michelangelo Dome」整合防空架構,透過感測器、指揮系統與武器串聯,因應無人機、滯空彈藥及其他低空威脅。整個家族分為3種口徑,其中口徑76公厘的Hystrix 76 ADS,負責較遠程的防禦工作,口徑40公厘的Hystrix 40 ADS用於中層火力,另有口徑30公厘、以Lionfish 30砲塔為基礎的Hystrix 30 ADS。
Hystrix 40是以Marlin 40艦砲為基礎衍生,可發射40公厘L70系列彈藥,以及可編程彈藥,艦載型射速可達每分鐘100發或300發,最多攜帶80發待射彈藥,有效射程約4.5公里,砲塔可360度旋轉,俯仰角從負20度至正85度,足以追蹤接近正上方的低空目標。
報導陳述,這套系統另一項特色為砲塔本身整合日間攝影機、紅外線攝影機及雷射測距儀,可在沒有外部雷達支援下自行搜索、追蹤並接戰目標。李奧納多同時正與MBDA義大利公司合作,評估整合仍在研發中的「Fulgur」極短程防空飛彈,進一步延伸Hystrix 40的接戰範圍。
值得注意的是,Marlin 40拖車式構型,已有外銷至一個未具名的遠東國家空軍部隊的紀錄,顯示這項「艦砲陸用」的概念,已有實際市場基礎。

Due to threats of terrorist attacks at Royal Air Force Base Fairford, the UK arrested a number of suspects suspected of having ties to Iran. Due to security concerns, the U.S. military has transferred more than a dozen B-1 bombers at the base back to the United States. Defense Department officials have confirmed this.

The U.S. Air Force has withdrawn all bombers based at Royal Air Force Base Fairford in the United Kingdom from the United States due to an investigation into a suspected terrorist attack plot at the base. Military observation groups pointed out that since the outbreak of the Iran conflict, B-52 and B-1 bombers have taken off many times to carry out missions.

The Army plans to commission the National Sun Yat-sen Institute of Science to build a dedicated testing facility for the Land-Shejian-2 missile, with a budget of more than NT$295 million, to cope with the Navy's tight testing resources and future procurement needs, achieve self-sufficiency in ammunition logistics, and improve combat flexibility and air defense capabilities.

India plans to spend US$10.5 billion to purchase 60 medium-sized transport aircraft to modernize its air force fleet. Lockheed Martin said that if it wins the bid, it will expand cooperation with Indian companies and increase production capacity in India.

Miller, chief technical officer of the U.S. Army Chief of Staff, released the latest test images, showing live-fire shots of the M1E3 "Ablan" main combat vehicle pre-prototype and the XM30 infantry combat vehicle prototype under development, emphasizing that firepower and numerical scale are still crucial in modern battlefields.

The Indonesian Navy took over the former retired Italian aircraft carrier "Garibaldi" and renamed it "Srivijaya". Italy's Fincantieri and Indonesia's PT PAL signed a memorandum of cooperation to jointly promote the modernization and upgrading of the ship and expand bilateral defense industry cooperation.
