随着美国陆军为多域作战训练士兵,例如在多国演习“Project Flytrap”中,该军种需要用“新基础”来为他们做准备,以建立一个统一的标准和基线,官员们表示。

As the U.S. Army trains soldiers for multi-domain operations, like in the multinational exercise Project Flytrap, the service needs to prepare them with “new basics” to establish one standard and baseline, officials said.

在第二骑兵团(2CR)内,新基础包括无人机系统的操作和使用、反无人机系统以及无人地面车辆的使用,陆军官员们在周一于美国陆军协会年会上的讨论中表示。该讨论的主题为“Project Flytrap—通过数据中心化杀伤网加速进攻机动”。Project Flytrap 是陆军的反无人机系统倡议和多国演习,它已经从个体士兵提升到中队级别,并经历了多次迭代。

Within the 2nd Cavalry Regiment, or 2CR, new basics include unmanned aerial systems operation and employment, counter-UAS systems and unmanned ground vehicle usage, service officials said during a Monday discussion at the Association of the U.S. Army annual meeting, titled “Project Flytrap—Accelerating Offensive Maneuver through Data-Centric Kill Web.”Project Flytrap is an Army counter-unmanned aerial systems initiative and multinational exercise, which has leveled up from the individual soldier to the squadron level with multiple iterations.

最近一次演习,Project Flytrap 5.0,于立陶宛举行,并在今年早些时候结束,参与国家包括英国和澳大利亚,演习由陆军第V军团领导。各国整合并测试了超过50项由工业界提供的技术,发射了效果和无人地面车辆,并针对真实的对抗部队进行了测试。

The most recent exercise, Project Flytrap 5.0, took place in Lithuania and was concluded earlier this year with partner nations, including the United Kingdom and Australia, and was led by the Army’s V Corps. The countries integrated and tested more than 50 industry-provided technologies, launched effects and unmanned ground vehicles and tested against a live opposing force.

“美国的作战方式以机动为中心,反无人机不能仍然束缚于静态防御,”第二骑兵团指挥官蒂莫西·普莱斯上校在周二的声明中表示。“Project FlyTrap 确保我们在高度争夺且不透明的作战环境中保持机动性和进攻生存能力。”第二骑兵团正将Project Flytrap扩展为营级作战能力,从小单位野外试验适应为与作战目标相连的战术使用,旨在突破欧洲东翼的无人机饱和前线。

“The American way of war is centered on maneuver, and counter-UAS cannot remain tied to static defense,” Col. Timothy Price, commander of the 2nd Cavalry Regiment, said in a Tuesday release. “Project FlyTrap ensures we maintain mobility and offensive survivability in a highly contested, opaque operational environment.”The 2nd Cavalry Regiment is expanding Project Flytrap into a battalion-level operational capability, adapting from small-unit field trials into tactical employment connected with operational objectives aimed at breaking through drone-saturated frontlines on Europe’s Eastern Flank.

“当我们为多域作战,或者说多域作战类型训练我们的士兵时,我们在2CR内部谈论新基础,”第二骑兵团高级 enlisted 领导人、指挥军士长杰西·克拉克在周一的讨论中表示。

“As we’re training our soldiers for the multi-domain operations, or multi-domain breeds, we talk about the new basics inside of 2CR,” Command Sgt. Maj. Jesse Clark, 2nd Cavalry Regiment senior enlisted leader, said during Monday’s discussion.

“随着新的基础内容,我们需要重点关注小型无人机系统、反小型无人机系统、电磁特征伪装……以及我们将如何实施,以便士兵们了解如何利用这些频谱选项进行自我伪装,”他继续说道。

“With the new basics, we need to focus on sUAS, counter-UAS, camouflage for electromagnetic signatures … and how we’re going to do that so soldiers understand how to camouflage themselves with those spectrum options,” he continued.

官员们列出了之前的基础内容,包括射击、地图阅读和导航、无线电礼仪以及无人机系统和干扰应对接触。

Officials listed the previous basics to include topics such as marksmanship, map reading and navigation, radio etiquette and UAS and jamming reaction to contact.

克拉克表示,该部门需要建立有纪律的单元训练管理体系,将人员、时间和装备纳入其中,以确保士兵熟练掌握这些新基础。实现这一目标的一种方式是设立一系列专家徽章。

Clark said the service needs to have disciplined unit training management in which personnel, time and equipment are included to ensure soldiers are proficient at the new basics. One way to complete this is to have a series of expert badges.

“每个人都需要了解这些基础内容,因为无论你是在前线还是在后方,这都将成为必备技能,因为我们将到处都能看到无人机,”克拉克说。

“Everyone needs to know these basics because it’s going to be required whether you’re on the frontline or you’re back in the rear because we’re going to have UAS all over the place,” Clark said.

美国军方一直致力于在各军种中融入无人机系统和反无人机系统的训练。海军陆战队和国防创新单位的新部门旨在招募具备第一人称视角无人机操作经验的服役人员,参与五角大楼的“无人机主导”计划。

The U.S. military has strived to incorporate UAS and counter-UAS training across all branches, with new units in the Marine Corps and the Defense Innovation Unit aiming to recruit service members with first-person-view drone experience to participate in the Pentagon’s Drone Dominance program.
