美軍為補充戰斧飛彈庫存修改SLAM-ER合約,加速生產彈頭外殼

Quick Look

美國海軍因在中東軍事行動中大量發射戰斧飛彈導致庫存見底,決定直接修改2019年與通用動力簽署的SLAM-ER飛彈合約,要求在9個月內生產並交付戰斧飛彈彈頭外殼,以縮短採購時間並加速補充庫存。此舉旨在應對當前國際衝突造成的彈藥需求,同時反映美軍正推動多項精準彈藥增產安排。

Why It Matters

美國海軍在中東軍事行動中大量使用戰斧巡弋飛彈對伊朗境內目標進行打擊,導致彈藥庫存快速消耗,補充壓力增加。

〔記者涂鉅旻/綜合報導〕美國海軍近期大量動用「戰斧」(Tomahawk)巡弋飛彈於中東軍事行動,庫存見底的壓力不斷升高。外國軍聞網站報導,美方9月2日公布的合約文件顯示,美軍將直接修改2019年簽署的SLAM-ER飛彈合約,要求通用動力軍械與戰術系統公司(GD-OTS),在9個月內生產並交付一批戰斧飛彈彈頭外殼,藉此縮短採購與認證時間,加速補充戰斧庫存。

根據外國軍聞網站《海軍新聞》報導,這份合約文件明確指出,這項加速交付安排,是因「當前國際衝突」造成美國海軍立即提高飛彈產量的需求。相關彈頭外殼將用於U/RGM-109E「戰術戰斧」(TACTOM),並裝配於新造及重新認證的Block IV、Block V型戰斧飛彈。

報導稱,美軍自展開「史詩狂怒行動」(Operation Epic Fury)以來,已向伊朗境內目標發射數百枚戰斧巡弋飛彈,也使外界更加關注美軍剩餘庫存,以及若印太地區爆發更大規模衝突,美國能否維持長期彈藥消耗。

請繼續往下閱讀...

通用動力目前同時為AGM-84 H/K SLAM-ER飛彈,以及戰斧巡弋飛彈生產彈頭外殼,因此,美國海軍選擇直接把戰斧飛彈相關產能,納入既有SLAM-ER飛彈合約,並非重新招標或找尋第二家供應商,避免漫長的前置程序。合約並要求,首批裝備最晚須在2027年第一季開始檢驗。

這篇報導指,除了戰斧飛彈,美國國防部也已與軍工業者推動多項增產安排,包括海軍標準三型(SM-3)反彈道飛彈,以及陸軍愛國者三型增程型(PAC-3 MSE)攔截飛彈,反映美軍正加速補充近期衝突中,大量消耗的關鍵精準彈藥。

AGM-84 H/K SLAM-ER飛彈是「魚叉」飛彈家族成員,屬於空射版巡弋飛彈,與戰斧本來就存在深厚技術淵源,SLAM-ER的鈦合金貫穿彈頭、折疊彈翼,皆衍生自戰斧飛彈設計,兩者的彈頭殼體也由通用動力GD-OTS供應;不過,兩款飛彈使用的完整彈頭型號並不相同。

British experts warn that excessive deployment of U.S. aircraft carriers affects Indo-Pacific deterrence, and hidden worries behind it intensify

British sea power experts pointed out that the tight global deployment and maintenance of U.S. aircraft carriers and naval ships existed long before the outbreak of the Iran war, affecting the Indo-Pacific deterrence capability. Taking the excessive deployment of the USS Lincoln as an example, they analyzed that the overuse of U.S. warships has led to maintenance delays and reduced combat readiness. China may use this opportunity to put pressure on Taiwan.

Progress of the first batch of Taiwan F-16V Block70 fighter jets returning to Taiwan: two fighter jets have taken off from Hawaii and are expected to arrive this week

Progress on the first batch of 66 F-16V Block70 fighters purchased by Taiwan: Two single-seat fighters (aircraft numbers 6727 and 6728) took off from Joint Base Hickam, Hawaii, on the morning of the 7th, Taiwan time, and are expected to arrive in Taiwan this week. Delayed due to weather and technical issues, if the flight returns successfully, it may first pass through Guam for reconditioning before returning to Taiwan. The endurance will be improved compared to the older F-16A/B BLK20, and the number of aerial refuelings is expected to be reduced.
