The annual report issued by Pentagon’s Office of the Director of Operational Test and Evaluation, or DOT&E, has revealed the Stryker combat vehicles’ Active Protection System (APS ) issues.
五角大樓作戰測試與評估總監辦公室(DOT&E)發佈的年度報告揭示了Stryker戰車的主動保護系統(APS)問題。
It was initially suggested that Stryker combat vehicles will receive new active defense systems to increase platform survivability in the near future.
最初的建議是，Stryker戰車將在不久的將來接受新的主動防禦系統，以提高平臺的生存能力。
Army commanders intend to use Stryker vehicles equipped with APS to disrupt and destroy enemy military forces, to control land areas including populations and resources, and to conduct combat operations to protect U.S. national interests while increasing protection to the vehicle and its crew.
陸軍指揮官打算使用裝備有APS的Stryker車輛來擾亂和摧毀敵人的軍事力量，控制包括人口和資源在內的陸地區域，並進行作戰行動以保護美國國家利益，同時增加對車輛和機組人員的保護。
According to the report, the U.S. Army evaluated three different solutions for Stryker APS: Iron Curtain, Advanced Modular Armor Protection – Active Defense System, and the Trophy Medium Variant system.
根據該報告，美國陸軍評估了Stryker APS的三種不同解決方案：鐵幕、高級模塊化裝甲保護-主動防禦系統和Trophy Medium變體系統。
Each vendor had unique technical solutions with different countermeasures mechanisms.
每個供應商都有獨特的技術解決方案，具有不同的對策機制。
These APS technologies intend to improve the survivability of ground combat vehicles against anti-tank guided missiles, rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs), and recoilless rifle threats by using a kinetic “hard kill” mechanism to intercept and disrupt/defeat the incoming threat.
這些APS技術旨在通過使用動態“硬殺傷”機制來攔截和破壞/擊敗到來的威脅，從而提高地面作戰車輛對反坦克導彈、火箭推進榴彈(RPG)和無後坐力步槍威脅的生存能力。
In the fiscal year 2018, the Army completed Phase I Iron Curtain APS testing on the Stryker.
在2018財政年度，陸軍在Stryker上完成了第一階段鐵幕APS測試。
And in FY19, the Army pursued and tested two additional Stryker APS solutions: Advanced Modular Armor Protection – Active Defense System by UBT/Rheinmetall and the Trophy Light system by DRS/Rafael.
19財年，美國陸軍又推出並測試了兩個額外的Stryker APS解決方案：UBT/Rheinmetall公司的先進模塊化裝甲保護-主動防禦系統和DRS/Rafael公司的Trophy Light系統。
The Army has not selected any of these solutions due to the demonstrated performance and systems maturity.
由於表現出的性能和系統成熟度，陸軍沒有選擇這些解決方案中的任何一個。
According to The Drive, the Army has been actively working to add active protection systems to all of its major armored vehicle platforms, such as the Bradley, the M1 Abrams tank, and the Stryker family of wheeled vehicles, in recent years.
據Drive稱，美國陸軍近年來一直在積極工作，為其所有主要裝甲車輛平臺增加主動保護系統，如布拉德利(Bradley)、M1艾布拉姆斯坦克(M1 Abrams)和輪式車輛的史崔克(Stryker)系列。
The ever-growing threat of anti-tank guided missiles, as well as advanced shoulder-fired infantry anti-tank weapons, is the primary driver behind these efforts.
日益增長的反坦克導彈威脅，以及先進的肩射步兵反坦克武器，是這些努力背後的主要驅動力。
The service is particularly concerned about how vulnerable these vehicles might be to these types of weapons in major conflict as a “great power” competitor, such as Russia.
該部門特別關注這些車輛作為“大國”競爭對手(如俄羅斯)在重大沖突中對此類武器的脆弱程度。
