Palantir 表示，无论是该公司还是美国政府，都无法远程关闭 Maven，这是北约最高军事指挥机构使用的 AI 驱动战场系统。
Palantir says neither it nor the US government can remotely shut down Maven, its AI-powered battlefield system used by NATO’s top military command.
这一保证是在欧洲国家质疑其对美国制造的国防技术拥有多少控制权之际作出的，一些国家正在开发自己的替代方案。
The assurance comes as European countries question how much control they have over US-made defence technology, with some developing their own alternatives.
负责 Palantir 英国和欧洲业务的 Louis Mosley 周三在布鲁塞尔接受路透社采访时发表了上述言论。他表示，客户仍然控制该软件，包括如何操作它。
Louis Mosley, who leads Palantir’s UK and European operations, made the comments in a Reuters interview in Brussels on Wednesday. He said customers remain in control of the software, including how they operate it.
“没有‘熔断开关’，”Mosley 告诉路透社。“它完全可以独立于我们运行，”他补充道。
“There are no kill switches,” Mosley told Reuters. “It can absolutely be operated independently of us,” he added.
Mosley 说，由客户决定 Palantir 员工是否协助运行该系统。如果有员工参与，这些员工均为使用该软件国家的公民，并持有所需的安全许可。
Customers decide whether Palantir employees help run the system, Mosley said. Where they are, those staff are citizens of the country using the software and hold the required security clearance.
Maven 整合来自卫星、雷达和其他传感器的数据，为军事军官提供更清晰的战场图景，帮助他们更快做出决策。
Maven combines data from satellites, radar and other sensors to give military officers a clearer picture of the battlefield and help them make decisions faster.
根据北约信息技术机构的说法，北约在 2025 年 3 月为其欧洲盟军最高指挥部（SHAPE）采购了该系统，此前经历了为期六个月的采购流程。
NATO acquired the system for its Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe (SHAPE) in March 2025, following a six-month procurement process, according to the alliance’s IT agency.
北约于 2026 年 6 月 22 日宣布该系统完全具备技术能力。北约和 Palantir 均未披露合同金额。
NATO declared the system fully technically capable on 22 June 2026. Neither NATO nor Palantir has disclosed the contract value.
Mosley 的言论此前有报道称，美国限制了乌克兰对 Starshield（SpaceX 的军用卫星通信服务）的访问。
Mosley’s comments follow reports that the US restricted Ukraine’s access to Starshield, SpaceX’s military satellite communications service.
上周，据报道用于快速机动乌克兰无人机的设备停止工作，使乌克兰部队更难应对俄罗斯的攻击。
Last week, equipment used on fast-moving Ukrainian drones reportedly stopped working, making it harder for Ukrainian forces to counter Russian attacks.
两名美国官员和一名西方官员告诉《Defense News》，限制访问的命令源自白宫内部。一名美国高级官员反驳了这一说法，称总统从未要求实施限制。
Two US officials and a Western official told Defense News that the order to limit access originated inside the White House. A senior US official disputed that account, saying the president had never requested the restriction.
“我们在过去几天新闻中看到的关于 Starlink 的情况极其令人担忧，”Mosley 告诉路透社。这一事件加剧了欧洲对于在关键军事行动中依赖美国技术的担忧。
“What we have seen in the news over the past few days around Starlink is extremely concerning,” Mosley told Reuters. The episode has added to European concerns about relying on US technology for critical military operations.
路透社援引相关担忧报道称，德国和法国迄今拒绝为其本国军队采用“Maven”系统。
Germany and France have so far declined to adopt Maven for their own armed forces, Reuters reported, citing concerns about dependence on an American supplier.
今年4月，德国军方网络司令部负责人托马斯·道姆排除目前使用帕兰提尔技术的可行性。他告诉《商报》，让公司员工接触军方国家数据库是根本不可能的。
In April, Thomas Daum, head of the German army’s cyber command, ruled out using Palantir’s technology for now. He told Handelsblatt that giving company employees access to the military’s national database was out of the question.
法国也在疏远帕兰提尔，其国内情报机构正过渡到法国软件公司ChapsVision，以寻求本土替代方案。
France is also moving away from Palantir, as its domestic intelligence agency transitions to ChapsVision, a French software company, in search of a homegrown alternative.
莫斯利表示，帕兰提尔的许多军事和商业客户已经能够独立运行该公司的软件。
Mosley said many of Palantir’s military and commercial customers already operate the company’s software independently.
然而，对欧洲各国政府而言，问题在于技术上的独立是否足以解决其对关键防务系统控制权的更广泛担忧。
The question for European governments, however, is whether technical independence is enough to address their broader concerns about control over critical defence systems.
