择天记Political preferences clash with warship building realities as Trump pushes costly Ford class carrier revamp: experts_我的网站
一 | 8月26日讯 越南队主帅金相植在距离东南亚锦标赛冠军仅一步之遥时表达了决心。他在新闻发布会中途关掉手机，展现了将全部精力集中于比赛的态度。越南队将在北京时间今晚21点坐镇河内美亭国家体育场迎战老对手泰国队，进行2026年东南亚锦标赛决赛次回合的较量。  The Washington Post reported on Saturday that the US Navy is considering a major redesign of its new Ford-class aircraft carriers to better match Trump's preferred aesthetic, with the president favoring ships that more closely resemble US carriers from the World War II era. One option under study would move the carrier's island farther forward, toward the middle of the ship. US officials cited by the report warned that such a change could require billions of dollars in redesign costs and cause substantial delays. The potential island redesign comes only days after Trump ordered another far-reaching change to the Ford-class program. On Thursday, he signed a national security memorandum directing the Pentagon and Navy to develop a plan within 60 days to replace the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) with steam catapults and the Ford-class carriers' Advanced Weapons Elevators with hydraulic systems, beginning with the future USS Doris Miller, or CVN-81, USNI News reported. Trump has repeatedly criticized EMALS as "too complex" and "not as effective as steam catapults," according to Reuters. But the order would reverse a technology path the US Navy has pursued for more than a decade. When the Navy selected EMALS in 2009, it said the system would lower overall lifecycle costs, require less maintenance than steam catapults and place less physical stress on carrier-based aircraft, per Reuters. As of March 2026, the USS Gerald R. Ford had conducted 36,863 EMALS launches, according to Pentagon documents cited by Reuters. General Atomics, the manufacturer of EMALS, has warned against changing course on the Doris Miller, saying nearly 50 percent of production related to the system has already been completed and that a switch now would create significant cost, schedule and integration risks, according to Reuters. Zhang Junshe, a Chinese military affairs expert, told the Global Times on Sunday that the Ford-class carrier's aft-positioned island is not merely an aesthetic choice, but is closely tied to flight-deck efficiency and landing safety. "Moving the island farther aft creates more space around the catapults for aircraft parking and handling, helping shorten launch preparation time, while also reducing airflow disturbance during aircraft recovery," he said. Relocating the island forward would not be a simple cosmetic adjustment, but a major redesign affecting weight distribution, buoyancy, flight-deck layout and aerodynamics, with significant implications for both cost and schedule, Zhang noted. Song Zhongping, another Chinese military affairs expert, told the Global Times that Trump's demand is one thing, but turning it into an actual warship design is another. "The first four Ford-class carriers have either entered service or are already in different stages of construction, leaving very little room for fundamental changes to their overall designs," Song said. Even the fifth and sixth ships - the future USS William J. Clinton, CVN-82, and USS George W. Bush, CVN-83 - would face considerable cost and engineering consequences if the Navy attempts to overturn their established technological architecture, he said. The US Navy officially announced the names of CVN-82 and CVN-83 in January 2025, per the US Navy official website. "There is an obvious gap between US President's political will and the engineering realities of aircraft-carrier construction," Song said. Such proposed changes come as Ford-class construction timelines have already grown considerably compared with those of the preceding Nimitz class. The US Congressional Budget Office (CBO) said in April that Nimitz-class carriers typically took seven to eight years to build, while Ford-class ships are currently taking roughly 10 to 11 years. In a separate assessment released this month, the CBO estimated that future Ford-class carriers under the Navy's 2027 shipbuilding plan could cost about $22 billion apiece. "Electromagnetic launch represents an advanced direction in aircraft-carrier catapult technology and has far greater development potential than traditional steam catapults," Song said. "If the US gives up electromagnetic catapults and returns to steam catapults, that would be a technological regression and a step backward." Echoing Song, Zhang said electromagnetic catapults offer more precise control of launch energy and broader compatibility with different types of carrier-based aircraft, while requiring less shipboard space than steam systems with their extensive high-pressure piping. "Replacing EMALS with steam catapults on a Ford-class carrier already designed around electromagnetic launch would not only represent a technological step backward, but could also turn an attempt to reduce risk into a new source of engineering and system-integration risk," Zhang said. 。在22日于泰国曼谷进行的决赛首回合中，越南队以2-0获胜，次回合越南队只要不输两球及以上，便能捧起冠军奖杯。作为上届赛事冠军，越南队正冲击队史首次两连冠，这一成就连前任主帅朴恒绪也未曾做到。
二 | 目前，金相植执教的越南队正保持着国际A级赛事25场连续不败的骄人战绩，是本届赛事最接近冠军的球队，正向历史纪录发起冲击。在25日举行的赛前新闻发布会上，金相植表示：“现在只剩最后一场比赛了。过去两个多月里，我们的球员一直在为这场决战而拼搏。
三 | 这场决赛将是一场永载越南足球史册的比赛，我相信主角将是我们的球员。”我们将全力以赴，用精彩的表现给越南球迷带来巨大的喜悦与美好的回忆。希望球迷们能坐满美亭体育场，为球员们送上鼓励与助威。”金相植也向韩国球迷传递了心声：“我知道很多韩国球迷也在关注并支持越南足球。明天大家也会观看比赛，我们需要用快乐、精彩且胜利的足球来回报韩国球迷的喜爱。球员们近期表现也非常出色，我认为越南队未来有望在世界舞台上大放异彩，希望大家也能多多支持。” 首回合客场取胜让越南队距离奖杯更近一步，但金相植丝毫不敢掉以轻心。
四 | 他表示：“首回合艰难的客场胜利让我们占据了有利位置，但实际上我们手里什么都还没有。”接着，金相植突然从座位上站起来说：“我的口袋里也什么都没有。
五 | 为了实现夺冠目标、捧起渴望的奖杯，我们必须毫不松懈、全力以赴去争取胜利。”在随后的越南记者提问环节中，有记者提到了“跳舞庆祝”的话题。金相植回应道：“如果球员和球迷们希望看到，我非常乐意跳舞。
六 | 希望我们的球员能够进球，然后我们一起跳舞庆祝。
七 | ”在河内举行的决赛次回合较量早已一票难求。在可容纳逾4万人的美亭国家体育场外，比赛前一天便已有黄牛扎堆蹲守。主帅金相植坦言：“我也接到了许多求票的电话，看来现在不得不关机了。
八 | ”说罢，金相植便真的将手机关机，以此表明自己将摒弃外界干扰，全心投入备战。
九 | 最后，金相植表示：“过去两个多月里，球员们放弃了休假，告别挚爱家人，一心一意为球队备战这场决赛。”“到了决赛舞台，主帅的战术部署与精神激励固然重要，但更关键的是每位球员都要在心理上做好充分准备。这是至关重要的收官之战，但我们会一如既往地保持平常心，从容备战。 Current article:http://www.zuanniangwandangliaolinechu.sbs/list_iupf61k/joqpar.xlsx Published on:18:45:11 |
