本世纪70年代,正当美国陷入越南战争泥潭时,前苏联海军借助潜艇力量的发展,在世界大洋对不可一世的美国海军构成巨大挑战。对此,人们记忆犹新。而在苏联解体之后,美国海军在大量削减兵力的过程中,猛然发现其潜艇力量的建设发展又在面对一场新的挑战,而发起挑战的对手,恰恰是前苏联海军的主要继承者俄罗斯海军。目前,尽管美国每年新出厂的攻击潜艇可大致与退役的潜艇数目相抵,但新型潜艇却更加昂贵,而且海军每年的采购经费正在呈下降趋势。美国一些资深的海军军官感到担心的是,到2010年,美国海军攻击潜艇的数量将下降到30艘。这个数目较之国防部官员去年提出的为满足全球需要所确定的数目要少三分之一。美国海军现有攻击潜艇88艘。为了达到在1999年只保留45～55艘潜艇的兵力构成目标,美海军正着手放弃为数较多的攻击潜艇。而在这次兵力缩减开始之际,恰是俄罗斯海军使其潜艇处于休整状态,并大力发展建造新一级潜艇之时。随着俄罗斯海军在建造静音潜艇方面不断取得新的突破,美国
In the 1970s, just as the United States plunged into the quagmire of the Vietnam War, the development of submarine forces by the former Soviet Union poses a tremendous challenge to the mighty U.S. navy in the world oceans. In this regard, people remember. After the Soviet Union was disintegrated, the United States Navy suddenly found that its submarine power construction and development faced a new challenge in the process of drastically reducing its strength. The rival that launched the challenge was the main successor to the Soviet navy. Russia navy. At present, the new submarines are more expensive and the Navy's annual procurement spending is declining, although the number of submarines attacked by the United States each year can roughly offset the number of submarines that have been decommissioned. Some senior U.S. naval officers are worried that by 2010, the number of U.S. naval attack submarines will drop to 30. This is one-third less than the number established by Department of Defense officials last year to meet global needs. The U.S. Navy now has 88 submarines in attack. In order to achieve the goal of retaining only 45 to 55 submarines in 1999, the United States Navy is starting to abandon a large number of attack submarines. At the beginning of the military strength reduction, it was exactly when the Russian Navy subsided its submarine and vigorously developed and constructed a new submarine. As the Russian Navy continues to make new breakthroughs in building mute subs, the United States
