〔記者吳哲宇/台北報導〕美國新創國防公司Shield AI近年積極佈局亞洲市場,同時更與台灣中科院、廠商合作,Shield AI今(2)日舉行媒體茶敘,共同創辦人暨總裁曾國光(Brandon Tseng)指出,烏克蘭雖然地理環境跟台灣不一樣,但也有類似之處,其中,V-BAT無人機也經過驗證並搭載雷達,雲多的情況下,在台海周邊仍可以使用。

Shield AI於2025年在台北101大樓設立辦公室,攜手台灣產業夥伴積極推動自主系統在地化。目前,Shield AI透過軟體與漢翔航空工業(AIDC)合作,以V-BAT支持海巡署艦載無人機專案的執行;雙方也簽署合作協議,共同在台提供V-BAT的支援、後勤、維護與訓練,致力於將Hivemind自主系統擴展至台灣無人機生態系。

曾國光表示,V-BAT屬於偵察無人機,他需要的成本跟傳統偵查方式,相差非常多,希望V-BAT能夠在台灣有更大規模採購,目前是跟海巡署密切合作,希望未來能跟台灣海軍或者其他軍種一起合作。

針對國防部116年度預算書顯示,海軍明年採購「垂直起降無人機」,外界視為V-BAT,對於相關細節為何?以及是否會受到立法院預算卡關影響?曾國光回應,無法回應太多跟海軍的細節,但知道他們要買垂直起降無人機,Shield AI也會進行投標,我們相信有最好的產品以及服務,同時也相信在作戰這塊,特別是第三類無人機,是最好且最成熟的,尤其是在通訊受阻環境下,仍可自主執行任務及多機協同作業。

至於烏克蘭戰場經常被拿來與台灣討論,不過雙方戰場環境並不相同,要如何使用無人機在台海達到嚇阻的作用?曾國光回應,烏克蘭雖然地理環境跟台灣不一樣,但相對也有類似之處,Shield AI也有跟烏克蘭海軍進行密切合作,對於海上環境非常熟悉,而台灣雖然在氣候上比較不同,冬天的雲比較多,就必須要有雷達感測器,才能夠穿越雲霧去看到一些內容,這部分V-BAT是有搭載雷達,所以並不擔心,相信在台灣周邊海域都可以使用。

Shield AI表示,Hivemind自主系統已整合至超過40種無人系統,可在GPS與通訊受阻的環境中,自主執行任務及多機協同作業。V-BAT無人機在烏克蘭的電子戰環境中,與特種作戰部隊執行情監偵與目標鎖定任務,已促成21次以上的打擊行動,在干擾環境下成功執行並完成任務,此外,V-BAT自年初以來協助美國海岸巡防隊追蹤並攔截人員與毒品,目前已查緝超過10億美元的毒品。
