美国陆军已下令成立自主系统专属指挥部,就在国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯宣布设立新的四星级军事指挥部以应对无人机和自主作战的一天后。

The U.S. Army has ordered the creation of its own command for autonomous systems, a day after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced a new four-star military command for unmanned and autonomous warfare.

陆军代理部长亚当·泰勒于10月1日签署的一份备忘录指示陆军参谋长助理成立美国陆军未来与自主系统司令部(FASCOM)。备忘录还要求陆军采购、后勤与技术助理部长——负责监督陆军武器采购的官员——将一个办公室置于其优先自主系统采购的统一管理之下。泰勒在备忘录中写道,他根据赫格塞斯9月30日的“军力状况”讲话发布了该备忘录。

An Oct. 1 memo signed by Acting Army Secretary Adam Telle directs the Army vice chief of staff to establish the U.S. Army Futures and Autonomous Systems Command, or FASCOM. It also tells the assistant secretary of the Army for acquisition, logistics and technology, who oversees how the Army buys weapons, to put one office in charge of purchasing its priority autonomous systems. Telle wrote that he issued the memo under guidance from Hegseth’s Sept. 30 State of the Force address.

备忘录未说明谁将领导FASCOM、其所在地或成立时间。“关于结构、指挥、使命等的具体细节将在未来某时公布,”陆军发言人马蒂·迈纳斯上校对《防务新闻》表示。

The memo does not say who will lead FASCOM, where it will be based or when it will be established. “Specifics on structure, command, mission, etc. will be announced at a future date,” Col. Marty Meiners, an Army spokesperson, told Defense News.

新设的采购办公室——自主领域采购执行官(Portfolio Acquisition Executive for Autonomy)——将拥有对陆军优先自主系统采购的单一权限。去年,陆军在六个采购执行官的框架下重组了武器采购,每位执行官负责一组相关项目。此举将为自主领域增设一位执行官。

The new acquisition office, a Portfolio Acquisition Executive for Autonomy, would have single authority over buying the Army’s priority autonomous systems. The Army reorganized its weapons buying last year under six portfolio acquisition executives, each overseeing a group of related programs. This would add another for autonomy.

备忘录还指示该助理部长在2028财政年度前优先采购和部署若干类自主系统。清单包括火力——陆军用于指代火箭弹、炮弹和导弹的术语;战斗车辆;水上补给;用于清除雷场等障碍物的突击系统;侦察、监视和目标获取系统;以及与有人驾驶车辆和飞机协同作业的无人机和机器人。

The memo also directs the assistant secretary to prioritize buying and fielding several types of autonomous systems no later than fiscal 2028. The list includes fires, the Army’s term for artillery, rockets and missiles; combat vehicles; watercraft resupply; breaching systems that clear obstacles such as minefields; reconnaissance, surveillance and target acquisition systems; and drones and robots working alongside crewed vehicles and aircraft.

陆军在其声明中表示,该备忘录的举措建立在已经进行中的工作之上,包括今年早些时候成立的一个办公室,该办公室负责将自主技术融入陆军各武器项目。备忘录和声明均未说明该办公室——任务自主能力项目执行办公室——是否将隶属于新成立的采购办公室。

The Army said in its release that the memo’s initiatives build on work already underway, including an office set up earlier this year to work autonomous technology into weapons programs across the Army. Neither the memo nor the release says whether that office, the Capability Program Executive Office for Mission Autonomy, will move under the new acquisition office.

备忘录要求陆军参谋部的力量管理办公室——该办公室负责塑造部队的组织和装配方式——迅速研究如何将自主系统融入至少六种现有部队类型:航空、装甲、火力、后勤、工程和训练。

The memo tasks the Army staff’s force management office, which shapes how units are organized and equipped, with quickly working out how to fit autonomous systems into at least six existing types of units: aviation, armor, fires, sustainment, engineer and training.

它还要求负责人力和人事政策的陆军助理部长在所有适用的陆军部队中增设无人机和机器人专业岗位。

It also tells the assistant secretary of the Army who oversees manpower and personnel policy to add drone and robotics specialist positions to all applicable Army units.

这两个专业岗位已经存在:15X战术无人机系统专家(面向义务兵),以及390A机器人技术员(面向准尉官)。

Both specialties already exist: the 15X tactical unmanned aircraft systems specialist for enlisted soldiers, and the 390A robotics technician for warrant officers.

“陆军正在迅速推进,以维持我们的致命优势,”特勒在陆军发布的一份声明中表示。“我们正在打造美国陆军未来与自主系统司令部,以将尖端技术送到士兵手中,同时在我们的编制、采购和训练中优先考虑自主性,以主导未来战争的格局。”赫格塞斯在9月30日于弗吉尼亚州昆蒂科海军陆战队基地发表的“武力状况”演讲中宣布成立自主战争司令部(AutoWarCom),这一消息由《军事时报》报道。他表示,该司令部将拥有类似军种的权限,以在全军范围内推广自主和机器人能力。

“The Army is rapidly advancing to maintain our lethal edge,” Telle said in a statement released by the Army. “We are forging the U.S. Army Futures and Autonomous Systems Command to get cutting-edge technology into the hands of soldiers, while prioritizing autonomy in our formations, our acquisitions, and our training to dominate the future of warfare.”Hegseth announced the Autonomous Warfare Command, or AutoWarCom, during his Sept. 30 State of the Force address at Marine Corps Base Quantico, Virginia, Military Times reported. He said the command would have service-like authorities to scale autonomous and robotic capabilities across the military.

赫格塞斯的备忘录《阿金库尔项目:通往自主战争司令部的路径》与其演讲当天签署,该备忘录将五角大楼的无人系统办公室置于阿金库尔项目的领导地位,该项目旨在为AutoWarCom奠定基础。

Hegseth’s own memo, “Project Agincourt: Pathway to the Autonomous Warfare Command,” signed the same day as his address, puts the Pentagon’s unmanned systems office in charge of Project Agincourt, an effort to lay the groundwork for AutoWarCom.

赫格塞思在讲话中表示,该项目的名称源自1415年那场战役:当时英军虽然人数处于劣势,但仍利用长弓成功击败了装备精良、兵力更强的法军。这份备忘录指出,如今那些成本低廉、精度高且可大规模生产的武器正在威胁着军方长期以来一直依赖的昂贵武器(如飞机、舰船和车辆)。

Hegseth said in his address that the project is named for the 1415 battle in which an outnumbered English army used the longbow to defeat a larger, heavily armored French force. The memo argues that cheap, precise weapons built at massive scale now threaten the expensive aircraft, ships and vehicles the military has long relied on.

《阿金库尔备忘录》将“AutoWarCom”描述为一个由四星将领领导的作战指挥机构,其运作模式以特定任务为核心,而非以地域划分;类似美国的“网络司令部”(Cyber Command)。备忘录还提到,该指挥机构将获得专门的人力、预算和授权,用于采购所需的军事装备。

The Agincourt memo describes AutoWarCom as a four-star functional combatant command, a headquarters organized around a mission rather than a region, like U.S. Cyber Command. It says the command would have dedicated manpower, budget and authority to buy equipment.

这类高级指挥机构的设立通常需要国会的批准——1987年美国特种作战司令部(U.S. Special Operations Command)的成立便是基于国会的授权。备忘录要求相关机构与国会合作制定相关立法,目标是在2027年10月1日前正式成立“AutoWarCom”。

Powers like those require an act of Congress, which gave U.S. Special Operations Command a similar setup when it was created in 1987. The memo directs the unmanned systems office to work with Congress on the needed legislation, with a goal of establishing AutoWarCom by Oct. 1, 2027.

备忘录指出,“AutoWarCom”的主要职责是明确各军种之间的协作需求,并整合各军种提供的兵力,以支持在中东、太平洋等地区执行任务的四星将领。一份应在10月30日前提交的计划将详细规定各军种的具体职责及贡献内容。不过,该备忘录并未说明“FASCOM”(Future Army Systems Command)将如何融入这一新的指挥体系。

The Agincourt memo says AutoWarCom will “define joint needs and integrate Service-provided forces in support of geographic combatant commanders,” the four-star officers who lead U.S. forces in regions such as the Middle East and the Pacific. A plan due by Oct. 30 is to lay out command relationships and what forces each service will contribute. Telle’s memo does not say how FASCOM will fit into that structure.

这个新指挥机构的名称“AutoWarCom”其实与一年前被裁撤的“Army Futures Command”(陆军未来司令部)名称相似。2025年10月,陆军将“Futures Command”与“Training and Doctrine Command”(训练与条令司令部)合并,组建了新的“Army Transformation and Training Command”(陆军转型与训练司令部,简称T2COM),总部设在德克萨斯州奥斯汀市)。

The new command’s name revives “Futures” a year after the Army inactivated Army Futures Command. In October 2025, the service merged Futures Command with Training and Doctrine Command to form the Army Transformation and Training Command, or T2COM, headquartered in Austin, Texas.

备忘录并未详细说明“FASCOM”与T2COM之间的关系。T2COM的发言人将有关新指挥机构的问题转交给了陆军总部。

The memo does not address how FASCOM will relate to T2COM. A T2COM spokesperson referred questions about the new command to Army headquarters.

当被问及“FASCOM”与T2COM、AutoWarCom之间的联系以及这些变革所需的资金来源时,迈纳斯表示陆军方面除了已发布的官方信息外,没有其他可供提供的细节。

Asked how FASCOM will relate to T2COM and AutoWarCom and how the changes will be paid for, Meiners said the Army had no information to provide beyond its release.
