2023年初，"杜魯門"號(hào)航母在撞上一艘貨船后受損。外掛式起升平臺(tái)受損，船體多處出現(xiàn)裂縫。

美國(guó)海軍在圣迭戈港對(duì)多架從海中墜落的E-18G"咆哮者"電子戰(zhàn)飛機(jī)進(jìn)行打撈作業(yè)。

據(jù)美國(guó)媒體報(bào)道，自今年年初以來(lái)，美國(guó)軍隊(duì)艦機(jī)事故頻發(fā)，涉及海軍、空軍、陸軍等多個(gè)軍種。這些事故原因復(fù)雜、損失慘重，暴露出美軍在管理和維護(hù)方面存在重大隱患。

年初事故頻發(fā)

報(bào)道稱，今年開局不利，美國(guó)空軍F-35A戰(zhàn)斗機(jī)最先出現(xiàn)事故。1月28日，駐在美國(guó)阿拉斯加州艾爾森空軍基地第354戰(zhàn)斗機(jī)聯(lián)隊(duì)一架F-35A戰(zhàn)斗機(jī)在訓(xùn)練過程中墜毀，機(jī)身嚴(yán)重?fù)p壞。

1月29日，美國(guó)陸軍第12航空營(yíng)一架UH-60"黑鷹"直升機(jī)夜間訓(xùn)練時(shí)與一家美國(guó)航空公司運(yùn)營(yíng)的龐巴迪CRJ700客機(jī)在里根機(jī)場(chǎng)附近發(fā)生碰撞，兩架飛機(jī)上所有人員遇險(xiǎn)。

2月6日，一架由美國(guó)國(guó)防部租用的比奇350型輕型飛機(jī)從菲律賓麥克坦機(jī)場(chǎng)起飛后發(fā)生嚴(yán)重故障，墜毀于該國(guó)南馬京達(dá)瑙省。機(jī)上4人全部遇難，包括3名美國(guó)防務(wù)承包商和一名美國(guó)海軍陸戰(zhàn)隊(duì)電子戰(zhàn)專家。據(jù)信，該機(jī)原計(jì)劃前往棉蘭老島執(zhí)行秘密任務(wù)。

2月12日，美國(guó)海軍一架EA-18G"咆哮者"電子戰(zhàn)飛機(jī)在加利福尼亞州南部圣迭戈港附近墜毀。同一天，美國(guó)海軍"杜魯門"號(hào)航母在地中海東部與"貝西克塔斯"-M號(hào)貨船發(fā)生碰撞，導(dǎo)致航母水線以上部分受損，不得不駛往希臘克里特島進(jìn)行維修。盡管五角大樓否認(rèn)有人傷亡和核反應(yīng)堆泄漏，但航母艦體出現(xiàn)"肉眼可見的裂縫"，讓美軍陷入了兩難境地。

在美軍忙于調(diào)查事故原因并應(yīng)對(duì)媒體關(guān)注的同時(shí)，外媒進(jìn)一步披露了更多安全問題和隱患。例如，原定加入航母編隊(duì)的"斯托克戴爾"號(hào)驅(qū)逐艦因系統(tǒng)和零部件故障被迫?？咳毡緳M須賀港等待維修；美國(guó)國(guó)務(wù)卿乘坐的空軍專機(jī)起飛后因故障返航，引發(fā)了外界對(duì)美軍裝備完好率的質(zhì)疑。2月15日，美國(guó)海軍陸戰(zhàn)隊(duì)MV-22"魚鷹"傾轉(zhuǎn)旋翼機(jī)在菲律賓發(fā)生迫降事故，再次將該型機(jī)推上風(fēng)口浪尖。此外，美國(guó)空軍因財(cái)力不足和技術(shù)儲(chǔ)備不足，決定推遲"哨兵"陸基洲際彈道導(dǎo)彈項(xiàng)目的服役評(píng)估。美國(guó)海軍駐關(guān)島的洛杉磯級(jí)攻擊核潛艇部隊(duì)被曝全員超期服役，導(dǎo)致部隊(duì)陷入停滯狀態(tài)。

暴露深層問題

As a symbol of the U.S. Air Force's new generation combat system, the F-35A fighter jet crash has sparked global concerns about its operational capabilities. According to U.S. Air Force officials, the F-35A has over 150 design flaws, and the government and defense contractors are still "pursuing production while continuously uncovering new issues." This incident underscores that the previous grounding and corrective measures did not resolve the underlying problems.

The crash of the UH-60 helicopter and a commercial jet highlights significant gaps in U.S. military management and infrastructure. Both Trump and the U.S. Defense Secretary, Hagse, have stated that "the primary responsibility lies with the military," and they have pointed out that "the UH-60 helicopter was operating beyond its design limits, and pilots were not adhering to the 60-meter height restriction after receiving tower warnings." The head of the U.S. Department of Defense's efficiency office has noted that after investigation, it was found that the air traffic control systems and safety notification systems at L.A. International Airport are technically outdated, with the latter experiencing operational failures for several hours, which "could lead to far more catastrophic incidents."

The crash of the EA-18G electronic Warfare plane, mechanical failures on several艦 vessels, and equipment aging have further revealed the severe limitations of U.S. military hardware. A U.S. Navy pilot expressed frustration that the EA-18G electronic Warfare plane has been in service for over 30 years. Among the current U.S. military fleet, 70% of naval vessels and 40% of fighter jets exceed the design lifespan by over 50%, with maintenance systems significantly lagging behind. The "Dulmen" Class aircraft carrier's flight control officer mistakenly identified a cargo stack as a port safety float, and the ship's communications officer on duty during an NBA game viewed on the ship's screen during duty hours is a glaring example of degraded officer professionalism and technical expertise.

The heavy-handed nature of U.S. military operations has led to prolonged overloading of equipment and personnel, which is a key reason for the increasing frequency of accidents. Taking the "Dulmen" Class aircraft carrier as an example, the ship was deployed in the Red Sea for eight months before the collision incident occurred, with its aircraft take-off and landing frequency exceeding the design standard by over 30%. The "Eisenhower" and "Roosevelt" class aircraft carriers also faced similar challenges during their time in the Red Sea. The MV-22 tiltrotor aircraft, designed to meet the U.S. Navy's Indo-Pacific strategy, has a planned annual flight hour requirement exceeding its domestic counterpart by 40%, earning it the nickname of "draining the system." Experts have commented that the recurring accidents across multiple U.S. military branches can be traced back to the high levels of readiness and the scattered nature of U.S. military deployment. According to preliminary調(diào)查 findings, these incidents also highlight the deep-seated problems in U.S. management, construction, and readiness.

The negative impacts of these incidents have spread beyond U.S. military circles.

Currently, the U.S. government and defense departments have taken measures to address military plane and ship accidents, but the negative effects continue to spread.

American media and a portion of the population are expressing strong dissatisfaction with U.S. military operations. They argue that under current economic conditions, the U.S. military budget is growing at an elevated rate, while frequent accidents are eroding public trust in the armed forces. As the investigation deepens and there are growing disagreements over U.S. defense spending between the two major parties, Trump's military policies may face increasing obstacles.

The U.S. traditional defense contractors are also facing significant challenges. The wave of problems affecting波音公司 in 2024 may worsen the U.S. public's mistrust in Lockheed Martin and other defense companies. Especially concerning is that F-35A fighter jets, as the main export product, are plagued by safety issues, which could damage their reputation internationally.

These accidents have raised concerns among overseas U.S. military personnel, leading to mass protests in countries like South Korea, Japan, and the Philippines, demanding an assessment of the safety of U.S. troops in their countries. Some nations are calling for a reevaluation of the purchase contracts for F-35A fighter jets and MV-22 tiltrotor aircraft. Several U.S. military personnel are worried that these incidents could undermine the stability of U.S.-Allied relations.
