摘要:

美军正在研制MQ-25A舰载无人加油机,即将开启航母舰载机联队无人化的时代。按照时间轴并区分项目,梳理了美军自2000年起发展航母舰载无人机的历程。根据MQ-25A无人机公开信息分析,通过工程估算量化评估了其典型任务能力。对照美作战目标,从作战需求、经费预算、竞争择优、渐进发展、体系增效等方面分析了其发展舰载无人加油机的原因。结合实际,从发展目标、发展途径、关注要点等方面提出相关启示,为中国类似装备建设发展提供参考。

Abstract:

The US military is developing the MQ-25A carrier-based aerial-refueling UAS, which is about to open the era of unmanned aircraft carrier air wings. According to the time axis and the differentiation of projects, the history of the development of carrier-borne UAVS by the US military since 2000 is reviewed. Based on the analysis of public information of MQ-25A UAV, the typical mission capability of MQ-25A is quantitatively evaluated by engineering estimation. In this paper, the reasons for developing carrier-based aerial-refueling UAS are analyzed from the aspects of operational requirements, budget, competitive selection, progressive development and system efficiency. Based on the actual situation, this paper puts forward some inspirations from the aspects of development goals, development approaches and key points of concern, and provides references for the construction and development of similar equipment in China.

Key words: U.S.military, MQ-25A, carrier, carrier-based aerial-refueling UAS
