That is because of the large amount of munitions that the United States is using in a bombing campaign in Yemen ordered by President Trump. 美國國會官員說，正在為可能與中國發生的衝突做準備的美國指揮官越來越擔心五角大廈 很快就需要將遠程精確武器從亞太地區的庫存轉移到中東。 這是因為美國在川普總統下令對葉門進行的轟炸行動中使用了大量彈藥。 U.S. readiness in the Pacific is also being hurt by the Pentagon’s deployment of warships and aircraft to the Middle East after the Israel-Gaza war began in October 2023 and after Houthi militia forces in Yemen started attacking ships in the Red Sea to support the Palestinians, the officials say.The American ships and aircraft, as well as the service members working on them, are being pushed at what the military calls a high operating tempo. Even basic equipment maintenance becomes an issue under those grinding conditions. 官員表示，2023 年 10 月以色列-加薩戰爭爆發後，以及葉門胡塞民兵開始襲擊紅海船隻 以支持巴勒斯坦人後，五角大廈向中東部署了軍艦和飛機，這也損害了美國在太平洋地區 的戰備狀態。美國的艦艇和飛機以及在其上工作的軍人正處於軍方所謂的高作戰節奏中。 在這些研磨條件下，即使是基本的設備維護也會成為一個問題。 The New York Times reported last week that the monthlong bombing campaign was much larger than the Pentagon had publicly disclosed. The Pentagon used up about $200 million of munitions in the first three weeks alone, U.S. officials said. The costs are much higher — well over $1 billion at this point — when operational and personnel expenses are taken into account, they added. 《紐約時報》上週報道稱，持續一個月的轟炸行動比五角大廈公開披露的規模大得多。美 國官員說，光是最初三週，五角大廈就消耗了價值約 2 億美元的彈藥。他們補充說，如 果考慮到營運和人員費用，成本會更高——目前已超過 10 億美元。 The long-range weapons used in the Yemen campaign include Tomahawk cruise missiles fired from ships; a type of glide bomb called the AGM-154 Joint Standoff Weapon; and the stealthy AGM-158 Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile, U.S. officials say. Those are also exactly the kinds of weapons that American war planners say would be needed to counter an air and naval assault by the Chinese People’s Liberation Army in the South and East China Seas and the Pacific. 也門戰役中使用的遠程武器包括從艦艇發射的戰斧巡航飛彈；一種稱為 AGM-154 聯合防 區外武器的滑翔炸彈；以及隱形的 AGM-158 聯合空對地防區外飛彈，美國官員說。美國 戰爭規劃人員認為，這些武器正是對抗中國解放軍在南海、東海和太平洋的海空攻擊所需 的武器。 The weapons are in stockpiles in U.S. military bases on Guam; in Okinawa, Japan; and elsewhere along the western Pacific, the officials say. The Pentagon has not yet had to dip into those stockpiles to fight the Houthis, but it might need to do so soon, they say. 這些武器儲存在關島的美國軍事基地；在日本沖繩；以及西太平洋其他地區，官員說。他 們表示，五角大廈尚未動用這些庫存來對抗胡塞武裝，但可能很快就需要這麼做。 心得感想： 目前西太平洋美軍沒有可用的航艦，華盛頓號還在船塢內，日X有不少照片 文森號前往中東之後二艘航艦加上印度洋上的6架B-2用於轟炸葉門，威嚇伊朗 長程武器也可能調往中東 如果全面對葉門開戰損失不會太少 補上今日新聞 胡塞擊落第 18 架MQ-9無人機 https://www.aa.com.tr/en/middle-east/yemen-s-houthis-down-us-drone-as-tensions-escalate/3532488 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 125.228.169.220 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Military/M.1744200522.A.F5A.html 這篇只是點名了長程對地彈藥 防空飛彈消耗早報導過了 As of January 2025, the U.S. Navy surface fleet has fired 120 SM-2 missiles, 80 SM-6 missiles, 20 Evolved Sea Sparrow Missiles (ESSM) and SM-3 missiles, part of its campaign to intercept Houthi missiles and drones. 截至 2025 年 1 月，美國海軍水面艦隊已發射 120 枚 SM-2 飛彈、80 枚 SM-6 飛彈、 20 枚改良海麻雀飛彈 (ESSM) 和 SM-3 飛彈以攔截胡塞的飛彈和無人機。 https://responsiblestatecraft.org/us-attacks-houthis/ ※ 編輯: d9070016 (125.228.169.220 臺灣), 04/09/2025 20:23:19
