This U.S. Navy Problem Can’t Be Solved By Building More Ships

建造更多船只也無法解決美國海軍的問題

Shipyards are having problems.

船廠有問題。

by David Axe

作者：David Axe

Here's What You Need To Remember: “Against an enemy equipped with advanced anti-access/area-denial capabilities, attrition of U.S. capital assets—ships, planes, tanks—could be enormous.” And owing to a dearth of shipyards, the Navy might not be able to repair the damage in time to make a difference in the conflict.

這是你需要記住的事情：“針對裝備有先進(jìn)的拒止能力的敵人，美國資產(chǎn)（船舶，飛機(jī)，坦克）的消耗可能是巨大的?！?而且由于造船廠的匱乏，海軍可能無法及時修復(fù)損傷而影響沖突結(jié)果。

That’s the dire conclusion that William Hawkins, a former Congressional researcher, reached when he studied government shipbuilding reports. Hawkins explained his alarm in an article in the August 2019 edition of the U.S. Naval Institute’s Proceedings.

這是前國會研究員威廉·霍金斯在研究政府造船業(yè)時報告中得出的可怕結(jié)論。 霍金斯在2019年8月版的美國海軍學(xué)院學(xué)報中的一篇文章中闡述了他的警告。

Hawkins pored through two recent U.S. Navy reports to Congress. Annual Long-Range Plan for Construction of Naval Vessels for Fiscal Year 2020 and Long-Range Plan for Maintenance and Modernization of Naval Vessels for Fiscal Year 2020.

霍金斯仔細(xì)研究了美國海軍最近向國會提交的兩份報告。 2020財年海軍艦艇建設(shè)年度長期計劃和2020財年海軍艦艇維護(hù)和現(xiàn)代化長期計劃。

“Shipbuilders seem confident they can produce warships on the schedule the Navy has drawn up,” Hawkins pointed out. “The 355-ship target will not be reached until 2034; four presidential and seven Congressional elections will pass before then, presenting risks to continuity.”

霍金斯指出：“造船商似乎對他們能夠按海軍制定的時間表生產(chǎn)軍艦充滿信心?！?“ 355艘船的目標(biāo)要到2034年才能實現(xiàn)； 在此之前，將舉行四次總統(tǒng)選舉和七次國會選舉，這給“政策”連續(xù)帶來了不確定性?！?/p>

The Navy owns four shipyards. Four private firms between them own another seven yards. Eleven yards in total for a fleet that could grow to 355 ships, not counting scores of auxiliaries as well as Coast Guard vessels.

海軍擁有四個造船廠。 它們之間的四個私有的公司又擁有七個船塢。 海軍總共有11船塢，可以生產(chǎn)船只至355艘船，這還不算輔助船和海岸警衛(wèi)隊的數(shù)十艘船。

“In the face of the construction demands, capacity to repair battle damage resulting from combat in a distant theater such as the South China Sea seems to be lacking,” Hawkins wrote. “The Maintenance and Modernization report calls for expanding beyond the current 21 dry docks on the U.S. Pacific coast merely to reduce current backlogs in the normal routine. When something off schedule occurs, extraordinary measures have to be taken.”

霍金斯寫道：“面對修建需求，似乎缺乏在南海等遙遠(yuǎn)戰(zhàn)區(qū)進(jìn)行戰(zhàn)斗而造成的戰(zhàn)斗損傷船只的修復(fù)能力?！?“維護(hù)與現(xiàn)代化報告”呼吁將維修能力擴(kuò)大到目前在美國太平洋沿岸的21個干船塢，為了減少正常情況下的任務(wù)積壓。 當(dāng)某些意外事情發(fā)生時，必須采取特別措施。”

Hawkins cites the example of the destroyer USS Fitzgerald as a cautionary example. Fitzgerald collided with a merchant vessel off the Japanese coast in June 2017. The Arleigh Burke-class destroyer suffered heavy damage.

霍金斯舉了一個以驅(qū)逐艦“菲茨杰拉德”號的例子。 2017年6月，菲茨杰拉德號與一艘商船在日本沿海相撞。這艘阿利·伯克級驅(qū)逐艦遭受了嚴(yán)重?fù)p壞。

“The warship first limped to Japan for uation before being sent back to the United States for repairs,” Hawkins wrote.

霍金斯寫道：“軍艦首先龜速到日本進(jìn)行評估，然后再被送回美國進(jìn)行維修?！?/p>

But she could not be dealt with at any of the Pacific dockyards; she had to be carried to a dry dock at Ingalls Shipbuilding in Pascagoula, Mississippi. The Ingalls facility is the leading construction site for the Arleigh Burke–class, having built 30 of them with more under contract.

然而在太平洋的任何一個船塢都無法處理它。 它必須被帶到密西西比州帕斯卡古拉的英格爾斯造船廠的干船塢。 英格爾斯工廠是阿里伯克級一流的建造工場，已建造了30艘，另有更多合同需要完成。

At the time, the Navy stated, “Only [Ingalls] has the available capacity to restore USS Fitzgerald to full operational status in the shortest period of time with minimal disruption to ongoing repair and new construction work.” ...

當(dāng)時，海軍表示：“只有英格爾斯有能力在最短的時間內(nèi)將菲茨杰拉德號驅(qū)逐艦恢復(fù)到全運(yùn)行狀態(tài)，而對正在進(jìn)行的維修和新建工程造成的影響最小?！?...

Houston-based Patriot Shipping provided the heavy-lift vessel needed to carry the Fitzgerald home. She did not reach Pascagoula until January 2018 and did not leave the dry dock there until mid-April 2019, 22 months after the collision.

位于休斯敦的愛國者航運(yùn)公司提供了將菲茨杰拉德驅(qū)逐艦帶回工廠所需的重型船只。 它直到2018年1月才到達(dá)帕斯卡古拉，距離碰撞已有22個月，直到2019年4月中旬才離開干船塢。

There are plenty of other cautionary examples, Hawkins pointed out. “When the USS Cole (DDG-67) was damaged in suicide attack in Aden in October 2000, she also had to be transported back to the United States for repairs, on a Dutch heavy-lift vessel. The destroyer did not leave its Pascagoula dry dock until September 2001, a shorter stay than the Fitzgerald only because the damage was not as extensive.”

霍金斯指出，還有很多其他的令人警醒的例子。 “ 2000年10月，科爾號驅(qū)逐艦（DDG-67）在亞丁自殺襲擊中受損后，它還必須被運(yùn)送到美國，使用一艘荷蘭重型半潛船。 直到2001年9月，驅(qū)逐艦才離開帕斯卡古拉船塢，比菲茨杰拉德停留的時間短，是因為破壞程度不大。

Then there was the destroyer USS John S. McCain, which collided with a merchant ship near Singapore in August 2017. “She was repaired in Japan, where she is home-ported, rather than transported back to the United States,” Hawkins wrote.

然后是驅(qū)逐艦約翰·麥凱恩號（USS John S. McCain），它在2017年8月與新加坡附近的一艘商船相撞?；艚鹚箤懙溃骸八谌毡镜哪父圻M(jìn)行了修理，而不是運(yùn)回美國?！?/p>

The destroyer remained in a Yokohama dry dock from January 2018 until late November, 15 months after the accident. In any Pacific Rim naval war, the hope is that Japan will be an active ally whose facilities would be available to U.S. warships. However, battle-damaged Japanese ships could be competing for repair capacity, and Japan’s yards might come under attack given their proximity to the combat theater.

自事故發(fā)生15個月后，從2018年1月至11月下旬，該驅(qū)逐艦一直滯留在橫濱干船塢內(nèi)。 在一些環(huán)太平洋海戰(zhàn)中，希望是日本將成為一個積極的盟國，其設(shè)施將可供美國軍艦使用。 但是，戰(zhàn)損的日本戰(zhàn)艦可能擠占修復(fù)能力，而且由于其在戰(zhàn)場附近，日本的船塢可能會受到攻擊。

Hawkins concluded by quoting a 2018 report from the National Defense Strategy Commission. “Against an enemy equipped with advanced anti-access/area-denial capabilities, attrition of U.S. capital assets—ships, planes, tanks—could be enormous.”

霍金斯最后引用了國防戰(zhàn)略委員會2018年的一份報告。 “要對抗裝備有先進(jìn)的反拒止能力的敵人，美國的主要資產(chǎn)（船只，飛機(jī)，坦克）的消耗可能是巨大的?！?/p>

And owing to a dearth of shipyards, the Navy might not be able to repair the damage in time to make a difference in the conflict.

而且由于造船廠的匱乏，海軍可能無法及時修復(fù)損害，在沖突發(fā)揮作用。

Invisible?? Remember the D-21? It was stealthier, flew higher and was much faster than F/A-117. It was lost while on a mission in China in 1971 and crashed in the Siberia. It was likely shot down. Almost 50 years ago. It cancelled the entire D-21 program..?

隱形？還記得 D-21嗎？它比F/A-117隱身更好，飛得更高，速度更快。它是1971年在中國執(zhí)行任務(wù)時失蹤，在西伯利亞墜毀。很可能是被擊落的。差不多50年前。整個 D-21項目被中止。
