Russia, China Would Destroy U.S. Command Aircraft on 'Day 1' of War, Air Force Warns

空军警告，中俄在战争第一天就能摧毁美国的指挥军机



Russian and Chinese air defense superiority means that even the most cutting-edge command and controlaircraft in the American fleet would be shot down immediately in the event of a war, leaving U.S. forces blind on the battlefield.

中俄的防空优势意味着美国军队中最先进的军事指挥机在战争一打响时就会被击落，致使美国军队在战场上失明。

Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson told the Senate Appropriations subcommittee on defense that even with planned upgrades to the planes, Russian and Chinese technology means they would be too easy a target for effective use, the Air Force Times reported.

空军秘书长Heather Wilson对参议院拨款委员会称即使飞机得到了升级，中俄所拥有的技术意味着美军军机很容易成为目标，空军时报报道。

Wilson was discussing the Northrop Grumman E-8 Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (JSTARS) aircraft, designed as a flying command and control center able to conduct surveillance and distribute information to troops on the battlefield below.

他说的是格鲁门公司的E8联合监视目标攻击雷达系统飞机，作为空中指控和控制中心，这款飞机可以监视并向地面部队传送信息。

The Air Force is at loggerheads with lawmakers who want to replace the aging JSTARS fleet with 17 new aircraft, even though the service doesn’t want them.

立法者们想用17架新飞机替代老旧的E8飞机，但是空军并不喜欢这样。

The Air Force wants to push its Advanced Battle Management System plan instead. This program would combine manned, unmanned and space-based platforms to achieve the same level of surveillance, officials said. But the House subcommittee has vowed to limit funding for that plan at 50 percent if the JSTARS program is shelved.

空军想推行其先进战斗管理系统计划。这个项目结合有人，无人以及空基平台以实现同样水准的监视，官员称。但是拨款委员会称如果E8飞机被搁置，那么将给新计划提供50%的费用。

Wilson told the subcommittee on Thursday that even the upgraded JSTARS aircraft would be ineffective against Russian and Chinese defenses in the event of war. “Russian and Chinese surface-to-air missiles have more range,” she explained, “and the plane would be shot down in the first day of conflict.”

周四Wilson对委员会称即使E8得到升级，在战争期间也无法对付中俄的防卫系统。“中俄的地空导弹里程更远，”她说，“战争第一天我们的飞机就会被击落。”

The question needs to be put to congresspeople: "Which is more important to you? Saving jobs for the plane manufacturers in your district by building more antiquated planes, or by listening to the Air Force on how they can best protect the USA?"

应该问国会议员这个问题：“什么对你来说才是最重要的？通过制造老旧的飞机而为你选区的飞机厂商保住就业，还是听空军说他们如何才能最好的保护美国？”

But yet we spend more than China and Russia combined in military spending. So why are we at a disadvantage with all those resources?

可是我们的军费比中俄加起来都多。那为什么我们现在还处于劣势？

This why we should had never closed down NASA space exploration. The key is high surveillance orbiting earth.

所以说我们不应该叫停NASA的太空探索。地球轨道上的高空侦查才是关键。

Maybe the military needs to show where all their money is going, they just received a $700 billion increase and they still want more money.

或许军队应该公开一下自己的军费都花到哪里去了，他们的军费刚刚增加了7000亿美元，现在又要更多。

There will be no war between the super powers now. Cause if there is one, that will be the end of the world.

现在超级大国之间是不会发生战争的。如果发生，那将是世界末日。

Thats partly why the F-35 is important in that it does that job also (Jack of all Trades) because of all its sensors that can see air and ground targets out to 100+ miles that it can play the role of (Miniature AWACS) and send the data in (real time) via its satellite uplinking to be seen by U.S. ground control and ships and other aircraft like the F-22 and B-1 and B-2.

所以说F35是很重要的，因为它具备这样的功能，它所有的传感器可以看到100英里外的空中和地面目标，然后将数据实时的发送给美国的地面控制中心，舰船和飞机，比如F22，B1和B2。

The military wants a full 33% of their bases closed to save money AND better deploy personnel. Congress closed ZERO.

空军想关闭33%的基地，从而节约资金以更好的部署人员。可是被国会拒绝了。

Something doesn't add up...Neither China nor Russia spend half of what the US spends in its military force, yet they always get hold on all of US secret weapons and have more advanced equipment?

中俄的军事开销都不及美国的一半，可是他们却总能对付美国的秘密武器以及拥有更先进的军事装备？

Have you ever gotten the feeling that America's best days are behind it? Look at the aircraft in the picture. That is based on a Boeing 707 airframe, developed in the mid '50s. The Air Force still operates many aircraft based on that platform. It was good in it's day, and it's longevity indicates a good design, but we area talking about a platform that's over 60 years old.

你有没有觉得美国最好的日子已经渐行渐远？看看照片中的这艘航母。那是基于波音707机身，研发于50年代中期。空军现在的好多飞机依然是那样的架构。在以前是很好，它的长久性证明了设计良好，但是这种架构已经60年历史之久了。

We far outspend both counties combined. Maybe instead of more money spent, cutting the pork and spending it wisely is in order.

我们的军费比这两个国家加起来都多好多。或许我们应该削减军费，将钱花在该花的地方。

you can bet the reason the congressional subcommittee is trying to keep Jstarrs alive is because one or more members of that subcommittee have factories that manufacture the Jstarrs in their respective districts. What a lousy way to run a country's defense.

这些国会议员之所以要保留旧系统，是因为其中某些议员的选区里有制造这种系统的工厂。

Let's see, we spend 3 billion dollars a day on our military which is 2 billion dollars more than the entire world combined spends. We have over 850 military bases worldwide, Russia has 7, China has 2. We have the most advanced techno-military industrial complex on the planet. Our defensive contractors (Boeing, Northrop, Lockheed-Martin, General Dynamics, Raytheon, etc. and 500 more make over a 50 billion dollars a year) have NO equal in this world.

我们每天的军费开销是30亿美元，比全世界其他所有国家的总和还要高出20亿美元。我们在全世界拥有850多个军事基地，俄罗斯有7个，中国有2个。我们拥有最先进的军工产业。我们的国防承包商（波音，Northrop，洛克希德马丁，General Dynamics，雷神）世界无敌。
