巴黎——法国武装部队部长凯瑟琳·沃特兰周四在议会听证会上表示，法国将于下月开始对乌克兰飞行员进行“阵风”战斗机的培训。
PARIS — France will begin training Ukrainian pilots on the Rafale fighter jet next month, Armed Forces Minister Catherine Vautrin said in a parliamentary hearing on Thursday.
“我们正在继续就战斗航空部分展开讨论，特别是关于‘阵风’战斗机的问题，”沃特兰在2027年国防预算听证会上，就援助乌克兰的相关问题向法国议员回应道。“从11月起，我们将开始对乌克兰飞行员进行首批‘阵风’战斗机培训。”乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基周一在Telegram上发帖称，乌克兰飞行员即将在法国开始“阵风”战斗机的培训，这是乌克兰战斗航空领域的一大进展。他在帖子中援引了与法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙的一次会谈。
“We are continuing our discussions regarding the combat aviation component, particularly regarding the Rafale,” Vautrin told French lawmakers in response to questions about aid to Ukraine during a 2027 defense-budget hearing here. “From November, we will begin the first training of Ukrainian pilots on Rafale.”Ukrainian pilots will soon begin training on Rafale aircraft in France, a major step forward for Ukraine’s combat aviation, the country’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in a Telegram post on Monday, citing a conversation with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron.
今年7月，乌克兰与法国达成了一项路线图协议，其中包括共同采购16架“阵风”战斗机及配套武器系统的计划。此前，乌克兰已从多个欧洲国家接收了F-16战斗机，并从法国获得了“幻影2000”战斗机；今年5月，乌克兰还同意采购20架新的“狮鹫”战斗机，其中瑞典将捐赠16架旧型号。
Ukraine in July agreed on a roadmap with France that included a plan to buy 16 Rafale fighter jets together with the accompanying weapon systems. The country has previously received F-16 jets from several European countries, Mirage 2000 fighters from France, and in May agreed to buy 20 new Gripen jets, with Sweden donating 16 units of an older model.
马克龙今年7月表示，首批“阵风”战斗机预计将于2028年或2029年在乌克兰上空执行飞行任务。
The first Rafale jets are expected to fly in Ukrainian skies in 2028 or 2029, Macron said in July.
泽连斯基周一表示，两国仍在继续推进在乌克兰本地化生产法国导弹和航空炸弹的工作。沃特兰在听证会上表示，目前导弹的许可审批流程正在进行中。“我们完全意识到，支持乌克兰就是在捍卫欧洲，”沃特兰说道。
Both countries are continuing to work on localizing production of French missiles and aerial bombs in Ukraine, Zelenskyy said on Monday. Vautrin said in her hearing that a licensing process is currently underway for missiles. “We are fully aware that by supporting Ukraine, we are defending Europe,” Vautrin said.
马克龙当时表示，根据7月份的协议，乌克兰还将获得首批配备导弹的SAMP/T NG防空系统。此外，两国还批准了在乌克兰生产AASM滑翔炸弹套件、为SAMP/T提供火力的“阿斯特30”防空拦截导弹以及SCALP/“风暴之影”空射巡航导弹的许可协议。
As part of the July agreement, Ukraine would also acquire an initial batch of SAMP/T NG air-defense batteries with missiles, Macron said at the time. The countries further approved licensing agreements for production in Ukraine of the AASM glide-bomb kit, the Aster 30 air-defense interceptor that arms the SAMP/T, as well as the SCALP/Storm Shadow air-launched cruise missile.
乌克兰此前已经使用过法国与意大利联合开发的SAMP/T防空系统的旧版，该系统依赖由MBDA制造的“阿斯特”（Aster）系列拦截弹。该国还使用由萨fran（Safran）公司研发的高精度滑翔炸弹AASM Hammer。
Ukraine has already operated an older version of the French-Italian SAMP/T air-defense system, which relies on the Aster family of interceptors manufactured by MBDA. The country also uses the AASM Hammer precision glide-bomb developed by Safran.
去年11月，乌克兰签署了一份意向书，计划采购达索航空（Dassault Aviation）制造的多达100架“阵风”（Rafale）战斗机。此前一个月，乌克兰与瑞典也签署过一份类似的意向书，涉及出口多达150架由萨博（Saab）公司生产的“鹰狮”（Gripen）战斗机。
Ukraine in November last year signed a letter of intent to buy up to 100 of Rafale jets manufactured by Dassault Aviation, after a similar letter of intent a month earlier between Ukraine and Sweden for the export of up to 150 Gripen jets, produced by Saab.
“阵风”战斗机集成了MBDA公司的“流星”（Meteor）导弹，该导弹被分析人士认为是西方军队现役的远程空对空导弹之一。该机型还配备了高端的电子战系统以及泰雷兹（Thales）公司的雷达，这两项技术均在2023年3月定型的“阵风”F4.1标准中得到了升级。
The Rafale integrates MBDA’s Meteor, considered by analysts to be one of the best long-range air-to-air missiles in service with Western militaries. The aircraft also features a high-end electronic warfare suite and a radar from Thales, both of which were upgraded as part of the Rafale’s F4.1 standard, qualified in March 2023.
