3月25日,在泗川举行的一场仪式上,李在明总统将首架量产型KF-21战斗机誉为自主国防的象征。他承诺将韩国提升为全球四大国防强国之一。韩国空军计划在完成评估后,从9月起部署120架该型战机。

3月25日,李在明总统出席了在首尔东南296公里处的泗川韩国航空宇宙产业公司(KAI)总部举行的韩国首架量产型KF-21战斗机下线仪式。李在明在活动上发表讲话称:“韩国终于不仅在陆地和海上,而且在空中也拥有了依靠自身技术保护和平的武器。”他补充道:“由我们自主设计、亲手制造的KF-21战斗机终于下线了。这架战斗机体现了我们半个多世纪以来梦寐以求的自主国防的强烈愿望。”KF-21项目于2015年启动,旨在取代老旧的美国制F-4和F-5战机,该项目遵循了时任总统金大中于2001年3月提出的愿景。该项目耗资8.1万亿韩元(约合55亿美元),并克服了包括美国拒绝转让四项关键技术在内的诸多挑战,即有源电子扫描阵列雷达(AESA)、红外搜索与跟踪系统(IRST)、光电瞄准吊舱(EOTGP)以及射频干扰机。项目的整体进度缩短了18个月。韩国空军计划在性能评估完成后,从9月起开始部署120架战机,目前的国产化率约为65%。李在明称赞了K9自行火炮和“天弓”导弹等此前的成功案例,并誓言要跻身全球四大国防强国之列,积极推动出口,包括计划向印度尼西亚出售16架战机的协议。

人们在说什么

社交平台X上的舆论普遍将韩国首架量产型KF-21战机的下线视为其自主国防和航空航天雄心的重要里程碑。用户强调该机型作为F-35经济实惠替代方案的定位,并关注了120架的部署计划以及印度尼西亚和菲律宾等国的出口兴趣。国防类账号详细分析了其4.5代多用途战机能力。一些分析人士澄清,该机型是F-35等隐身战机的补充,而非替代。通过与印度“光辉”战机(Tejas)等其他项目的对比,评论指出韩国在航空领域取得了迅速进展。

South Korean Defence Minister Ahn Gyu-back lodged a complaint immediately with the US Forces Korea commander after receiving a report of the standoff last week. The incident involved around 10 US F-16 fighters taking off from Osan Air Base and flying west over the Yellow Sea toward China's air defence identification zone, prompting Beijing to scramble its own jets in a brief face-off. South Korean media highlight this as underscoring Seoul's growing difficulty in balancing ties with security ally the US and top trading partner China.
