装甲战争剧情活动奖励新车M1 Abrams AGDS详解

　　The Avenger didn't really solve the issues that had plagued the American AA systems in the first place. It wasn't capable of laying down ground-fire, nor was it armed with guns and the LAV-AD system that's also in use is restricted to U.S. Marines since the army doesn't use the LAV platform.

　　但“复仇者”并没有真正解决困扰美军防空系统的问题：它不能转为对地攻击，没有装备其它武器，而且所使用的LAV-AD系统仅限于美国海军陆战队（因为陆军不使用LAV平台）。

　　In his effort to provide a solution to these issues, Dr. Sharoni reached essentially the same conclusion that materialized in Russia in the form of the Terminator series – a dual purpose vehicle able to knock out both flying and ground targets, including heavily armored ones. He referred to this vehicle as the Armored Ground Defense System (AGDS).

　　为了提供这些问题的解决方案，Sharoni博士和俄罗斯人对BMPT终结者系列的研发一样，得出了基本相同的结论——这是一种多用途车辆，能够打击包括重装甲车辆在内的地面和飞行目标。他把这种车辆称为“装甲地面防御系统”（AGDS）。

　　As per his analysis, the requirements for such a vehicle would be as follows:

　　根据他的分析，这种车辆应该满足以下要求：

　　Well-armored with protection levels comparable to the M1 Abrams Main Battle Tank

　　Cost-effective using as many existing components as possible

　　Reliable and easy to maintain

　　Rapid response time was essential

　　Multiple weapon systems that would be able to engage any target at a variety of distances

　　Fire on the move capability

　　Mobility to keep up with the Abrams tanks and Bradley IFVs

　　All-weather, day/night capability

　　NBC protection

　　防护能力同M1艾布拉姆斯相当；

　　使用尽可能多的现有组件，具有成本效益；

　　可靠，易于维护；

　　响应时间极快；

　　多种武器系统，能够同各种距离的任意目标交战；

　　可以移动间开火；

　　机动性能跟得上艾布拉姆斯和布雷德利；

　　全天候作战能力；

　　核生化防护系统。

　　The weapon systems would have to reflect these requirements as well as the combat experience and the intended tactical use of the vehicle. The AGDS vehicle would accompany armored and infantry units, putting it in the first line of combat (hence the protection requirement). In such situations, encounters with enemy armor were not only possible but likely so the AGDS system would have to have the means to destroy them – and that meant guided missiles.

　　武器系统的设计必须反映实际要求，如战斗经验和车辆的预期战术用途。AGDS将与装甲和步兵部队一同置于战斗的第一线（因此也需要极高的保护要求）。在一些情况下，AGDS不仅会与敌方装甲部队遭遇，而且必须要有办法摧毁敌方装甲车——这就意味着它需要导弹。

　　Another element is the AA experience from past conflicts. By 1996, the lessons from the Soviet Afghan war as well as other conflicts would have made their way to the west. During these wars, the Soviets employed rapid-fire self-propelled AA guns such as the quad 23mm Shilka against Mujahedeen fighters with great results. The 23mm torrent of shells quite literally ripped apart any combatants found in the vehicle's target zone. The same thing appeared a few years later during the Yugoslav Civil War where the twin 30mm Praga self-propelled AA guns were used with deadly efficiency. In other words, two or more autocannons were ideal for that kind of job.

　　另一个因素是从过去的冲突中吸取有关防空车的经验。在1996年，西方人在苏联阿富汗战争和其它冲突的教训中学到了很多。在这些战争中，苏联人部署了像ZSU-23-4“石勒喀河”速射自行高炮来对付MSL圣战者，而且效果显著——23mm的炮弹能将任何在车辆目标内的战斗人员瞬间撕裂。而同样的情况也出现在几年后的南斯拉夫内战，期间出现的M53/59式高射炮对人员杀伤也有着恐怖的效率。也就是说，2门以上并联机炮是这种作战的理想选择。

　　The idea to arm a tank chassis with an anti-aircraft turret (which appeared in the DIVAD program) was also essentially correct. That way, the vehicle would have sufficient mobility and offer considerable protection (providing an obsolete chassis, such as the M48, was not used like in the case of Sergeant York). And so, the Abrams AGDS proposal was born.

　　把防空炮塔（出现在DIVAD计划中）安装坦克底盘上的想法基本正确。这样，车辆将具有良好的机动并提供足够的保护（但提供像M48这种过时坦克的底盘就是错误的，像“约克中士”那样）。所以，M1 Abrams AGDS的提案诞生了。

　　The Abrams AGDS concept consists of a standard Abrams hull with a newly-designed turret. This front-line vehicle offers tank-level protection to its crew (that could be further upgraded by Abrams-standard ERA kits), while being able to keep up with the rest of the American formations armed wit Abrams tanks and Bradley IFVs. The vehicle carries three men (commander, gunner, driver).

　　AGDS以标准的M1车体作为底盘，加上一座全新设计的炮塔。这种将会在前线作战的车辆为其乘员提供了坦克级别的保护（而且还可以进一步加装标准的M1爆反）。同时能够跟得上M1和布雷德利IFV这些车辆组成的阵容。AGDS有3名乘员（车长、炮手、驾驶员）。

　　The hull belongs to the M1A2 variant. Based on Dr. Sharoni's estimations, it can take 20-25 percent extra load compared to the standard M1A2 Abrams (as was later proven by the appearance of heavy additional armor kits). In its basic form, the Abrams AGDS would weigh between 55 and 60 tons. The power plant of choice would still be the Honeywell AGT1500 turbine, producing some 1500 horsepower and bringing the power to weight ratio to some 25 hp/t with maximum speed staying at around 65 km/h.

　　AGDS的车体基于M1A2系列。根据Sharoni博士的估计：与标准的M1A2 Abrams相比，它可能需要20-25％的额外负载（后来重型附加装甲套件的出现证明了这一点）。AGDS的基础重量将在55至60吨之间。动力来源仍然是Honeywell AGT1500燃气轮机，可以产生约1500马力，将功重比带到25hp/t的同时让最大速度保持在65km/h左右。
