美國海軍的潛艇噩夢不會輕易結束
摘要:由於預算限製和國防工業基礎緊張,美國海軍將把下一代 SSN(X) 攻擊型潛艇的建造時間推遲到 2040 年代。
-這一決定與削減弗吉尼亞級潛艇計劃同時做出,該計劃已經急需增加數量。
- Block V 弗吉尼亞級潛艇是一種高度先進和性能強大的潛艇,據稱足以應對當前和不久的將來的衝突,特別是在中國附近具有挑戰性的沿海地區。
-批評人士建議海軍應該集中精力加強和擴大現有的弗吉尼亞級艦隊,而不是投資昂貴且長期的 SSN(X) 項目,因為該項目被認為與迫在眉睫的威脅不太相關。
地主家也沒錢了,咋辦哩?
Summary: The U.S. Navy is delaying the construction of its next-generation SSN(X) attack submarine to the 2040s, citing budget constraints and a strained defense industrial base.
-This decision comes alongside cuts to the Virginia-class submarine program, which is already in dire need of increased numbers.
-The Block V Virginia-class, a highly advanced and capable submarine, is argued to be sufficient for current and near-future conflicts, particularly in the challenging littoral zones near China.
-Critics suggest that the Navy should focus on enhancing and expanding its existing Virginia-class fleet rather than investing in the expensive and long-term SSN(X) program, which is seen as less relevant to imminent threats.
