Can't hide from us anymore.
再也无处可藏了。
I'm Richard Mackwitz.
我是Richard Mackwitz。
I spent 10 years as a Navy SEAL, and I'm on a mission to seek out the world's smartest weapons.
我在海豹突击队服役了10年，我正在执行一个任务，寻找世界上最聪明的武器。
The remote and rugged landscapes of Ireland are steeped in myth and legend.
爱尔兰的偏远崎岖地形充满了神话和传说。
So it makes sense that here in Northern Ireland, they developed a weapon with a name taken straight from the folklore of a race of fearsome warriors.
因此，在北爱尔兰这里开发出一种武器，它的名字直接取自一个可怕战士种族的民间传说，这是很有意义的。
Thor was the Viking god of war who protected his people by raining down thunder and lightning on his enemies.
托尔是维京战神，他通过向敌人降下雷电来保护自己的人民。
The Thor of the 21st century is just as powerful, just as deadly.
21世纪的托尔同样强大，同样致命。
Except this one is no myth.
只不过这个不是神话。
This one is very real.
这个是非常真实的。
This vehicle is fitted with Thor, a brand new state-of-the-art missile launcher that can take out aircraft or ground targets.
这辆车装备了托尔，一种全新的尖端导弹发射器，能够摧毁空中或地面目标。
It's a lightweight, highly mobile defensive unit.
它是一种轻便、高机动性的防御单元。
It weighs just a half a ton and can be operated by one man.
它仅重半吨，可由一人操作。
The man is there really in an executive role to confirm the target and to decide when to engage the target.
那个人实际上是扮演一个执行角色，来确认目标并决定何时攻击目标。
And when it's packed with four deadly accurate Starstreet missiles, there is no escape.
当它装载了四枚精准致命的Starstreet导弹时，就无处可逃了。
Once you see the target, you say, that's the target I want to get.
一旦你看到目标，你就会说，那是我想要攻击的目标。
And you can get on there, fire it, and it's away.
你可以立即上去，发射它，它就发射出去了。
You're talking seconds.
我们谈论的是几秒钟的事情。
The whole system has been built to detect, track, lock onto, and destroy a target such as a low-flying fighter plane or an attack helicopter in less than 10 seconds.
整个系统被设计用来在不到10秒内探测、追踪、锁定并摧毁目标，比如低空飞行的战斗机或攻击直升机。
So it's pretty obvious that a plane or a helicopter doesn't stand a chance against a Thor loaded with star streaks.
因此很明显，对于装载了星流弹的托尔来说，飞机或直升机根本没有胜算。
But what's the point of having an anti-aircraft missile when the other guy doesn't have any planes?
但是，如果对方没有任何飞机，拥有一种防空导弹又有什么意义呢？
Who knows what the future may bring, but for now, the threat of an airborne attack on Western forces has almost completely disappeared.
谁知道未来会带来什么，但就目前而言，西方部队遭受空中攻击的威胁几乎已经完全消失了。
The current war on terror is being fought at street level, mainly in densely populated urban areas.
当前的反恐战争主要在街道层面、主要在人口密集的城市地区进行。
And that's why Thor is smarter than the average anti-aircraft missile launcher.
这就是为什么托尔比一般的防空导弹发射器更聪明。
It has also been designed for use on the ground.
它也被设计用于地面作战。
In urban combat, ground targets are often exposed for just a few seconds as they pass behind buildings or civilians.
在城市战斗中，地面目标通常在穿过建筑物或平民后仅暴露几秒钟。
To launch an effective strike, you need to be fast and accurate.
要发动有效打击，你需要快速且精准。
You're also going to need a special sort of missile, like the Starstreak.
你还需要一种特殊的导弹，像星流导弹这样的。
The Starstreak missile is a close air defence weapon system that is designed for very rapid response to be able to engage targets that are only fleetingly visible, operating at very low level.
星流导弹是一种近距空中防御武器系统，设计用于非常迅速的响应，能够攻击那些只是短暂出现、在非常低空操作的目标。
Hale-Wilson is the brains behind Starstreak.
Hale-Wilson是星流导弹背后的智囊。
Its characteristic is very high velocity indeed.
它的特点是速度非常高。
It is probably the most advanced short range air defence missile.
它可能是世界上最先进的短程防空导弹。
in the world.
在世界上。
But the Thor launcher can fire a whole range of missile types in any combination, making it equally effective against tanks and other heavily armored vehicles.
但是托尔发射器可以发射各种类型的导弹，任意组合，使其同样有效对抗坦克和其他重装甲车辆。
Add to that a cutting-edge laser guidance system, CCD camera and thermal imaging, you can clearly see why Thor lives up to its name.
再加上尖端的激光制导系统、CCD摄像头和热成像，你可以清楚地看到托尔为何名副其实。
And seeing clearly is exactly what Thor is good at.
而清晰地看到正是托尔擅长的。
Its advanced thermal and optical imaging is linked to a tracking system that can find and lock on to a target in seconds.
它的先进热成像和光学成像与跟踪系统相连，能在几秒内找到并锁定目标。
And the whole missile guidance panel is incredibly easy to operate.
整个导弹制导面板操作起来非常简单。
The controls are very simple.
控制非常简单。
It gives an accurate weapon.
它提供了一种精确的武器。
And it's so simple to use.
而且使用起来非常简单。
Once he's got the target, he fires and that's it.
一旦锁定目标，他就发射，就这样。
If we can see it, we can hit it.
如果我们能看到它，我们就能击中它。
Under the expert guidance of James Keoghan, chief designer of Thor, I was able to master the controls in just a few minutes.
在托尔的首席设计师James Keoghan的专业指导下，我只用了几分钟就掌握了控制器。
How do I lock it?
我该如何锁定它？
If we engage the right hand grip, you have control of the sight through this joystick controller.
如果我们使用右手把手，你就可以通过这个操纵杆控制瞄准器。
piece of cake.
小菜一碟。
The ATT indicates the target to be tracked.
ATT指示要跟踪的目标。
We lock on the target.
我们锁定目标。
The sensitive thermal imaging can pick out the faintest heat signature in day or at night, even through heavy cloud.
敏感的热成像可以在白天或夜晚，甚至在浓云中捕捉到最微弱的热量信号。
Camouflage doesn't work.
伪装不起作用。
We can see ground targets, we can see aerial targets at tremendous ranges.
我们可以看到地面目标，也可以在极远的距离看到空中目标。
We can pick up helicopters out to 10km and even small UAV type targets we can see easily at 6-7km.
我们可以在10公里外捕捉到直升机，甚至在6-7公里外也能轻松看到小型无人机类型的目标。
A super-smart target tracking system leaves the operator free to concentrate on the main job, deciding whether to fire or not.
一个超智能的目标跟踪系统让操作员可以自由集中精力做主要工作，决定是否开火。
The only thing he really has to have is a bit of aircraft recognition to make sure he's firing at the right aircraft.
他真正需要具备的唯一技能是一些飞机识别能力，以确保他向正确的飞机开火。
Then I lift this thing up right here.
然后我把这个东西向上提起来。
And press to fire the missile.
按下发射导弹。
Like this?
像这样？
It all takes place in the blink of an eye, but the Starstreak launch sequence is very complex.
这一切都在眨眼间发生，但Starstreak发射序列非常复杂。
First, the protective cap pops off the missile tube, and a pulse from the firing unit ignites the first stage rocket, launching the missile on its deadly journey.
首先，保护盖从导弹管中弹出，发射装置的一个脉冲点燃第一级火箭，发射导弹开始它的致命旅程。
As it leaves the tube, it starts to spin, forcing rear fins to unfold, which will keep it stable in the air.
导弹离开管道时开始旋转，迫使后部翼片展开，这将保持它在空中的稳定。
Once it's clear, the first motor is jettisoned, and the second stage rocket ignites, accelerating the missile to three and a half times the speed of sound.
一旦清除，第一级发动机被抛弃，第二级火箭点火，将导弹加速到音速的三倍半。
This all happens within a half a second of the trigger being pulled.
这一切都在扳动扳机的半秒钟内发生。
And when it gets to the target, it packs another surprise.
当它到达目标时，它还带来了另一个惊喜。
Or make that three surprises.
或者说是三个惊喜。
This little dart has within it all the systems that you would find on a missile many times bigger.
这个小飞镖内含有你会在多次大型导弹上找到的所有系统。
It has a receiver system, a guidance computer, a warhead, a fuse, actuator system and a gyroscope.
它有接收系统、制导计算机、弹头、引信、执行器系统和陀螺仪。
Three darts gives us the very high hit probability of at least one dart.
三个飞镖提供了至少有一个飞镖击中目标的非常高的命中概率。
hitting the target, and we would normally expect two darts to actually hit the target.
我们通常期望有两个飞镖实际击中目标。
Three gives a very good punch.
三个飞镖提供了非常好的攻击力。
The darts know where to hit because the Thor projects an invisible grid of low-intensity laser beams undetectable by the enemy.
飞镖知道在哪里击中，因为Thor投射了一张敌人无法探测到的低强度激光束形成的看不见的网格。
The center of this grid is locked onto the target by the tracking system.
这个网格的中心被跟踪系统锁定在目标上。
As each small dart flies through the air, it senses its position and adjusts its flight path with astonishing speed before striking with enough force to pierce armored steel.
每个小飞镖在空中飞行时，它能感知自己的位置，并在撞击前以惊人的速度调整飞行路径，具有足够的力量穿透装甲钢。
Here's a plate of armor.
这是一块装甲板。
It's over an inch thick, weighs roughly 60 to 65 pounds, and the dart penetrated all the way through this with kinetic force alone.
它厚度超过一英寸，重约60到65磅，飞镖仅凭动能就完全穿透了它。
For an air defense missile, which is what it's designed to, for it to penetrate that much steel is just fantastic.
对于一种防空导弹，也就是它的设计目的，能穿透那么厚的钢板简直太棒了。
There's no aircraft in the world with... That's going to hold up against it, is it?
世界上没有任何飞机能……它能抵挡得住吗？
There's no armor that's going to stop it, no.
没有任何装甲能阻止它，没有。
Once the dart has pierced its way through the armor, only then does the tungsten warhead finally finish the job.
一旦飞镖穿透了装甲，钨弹头才最终完成任务。
All its energy, its chemical energy and its kinetic energy is delivered inside the target.
它的所有能量，化学能和动能都在目标内部释放。
So it's delivered inside the aircraft structure, and therefore the small charge is a tremendous, as it were, amplified explosion effect.
所以它是在飞机结构内部释放，因此小型药包产生了巨大的，可以说是放大的爆炸效果。
Absolutely, because it's compact inside that space.
绝对的，因为它是在那个空间内紧凑地放置的。
And the tungsten warhead produces many hundreds of fragments moving at very high velocity, damaging the structure and all the internals.
钨弹头产生数百个高速移动的碎片，破坏结构和所有内部部件。
Launched manually from a portable shoulder unit, the missile is as accurate as the operator who fires it.
导弹可以手动从便携式肩扛装置发射，其准确性取决于发射它的操作员。
But when it's combined with a Thor launcher, the Starstreak is just seconds away from being a 100% guaranteed hit.
但当它与Thor发射器结合时，Starstreak导弹只需几秒钟就能保证百分之百命中。
It's a cutting-edge missile.
这是一种尖端导弹。
It's passive.
它是被动的。
It can't be detected.
它无法被探测到。
It can't be beaten.
它无法被击败。
It can't be defeated.
它无法被战胜。
There's nothing that can stop it.
没有什么能阻止它。
So once an operator has decided to fire that missile, it's going to hit what he's firing at.
所以一旦操作员决定发射那枚导弹，它就会击中他瞄准的目标。
Next, it's the world's first weaponized robot, soon to see active service in Iraq.
接下来是世界上第一款武器化的机器人，很快将在伊拉克投入实战。
But how will it take the fight to the insurgents?

Then, they decided to weaponize it.
然后，他们决定对其进行武器化。
The inspiration behind the idea came from a sergeant here at Picatinny Arsenal at the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Group, Sergeant David Platt.
这个想法的灵感来自于皮卡廷尼兵工厂爆炸物排除小组的一名中士，David Platt。
And David Platt was with Talons at World Trade Center doing search and rescue missions.
David Platt曾与Talon一起在世贸中心进行搜救任务。
He came back with the idea of not just using an arm and a claw and a hand that would reach out and pick up an unexploded ordnance device, but actually put a weapon system, including machine guns, onto the robot.
他回来的想法不仅仅是使用一个手臂、一个爪子和一个手来伸出去捡起未爆炸的弹药装置，而是实际上在机器人上安装一个包括机枪在内的武器系统。
Now they've created a deadly combat weapon.

Now he's got support, basically.
现在他基本上有了支援。
You always provide overwatch just like any other platoon or asset out there in the field.
你总是提供高空掩护，就像任何其他在野外的排或资产一样。
Makes sense.
有道理。
You can see him just inching in, inching in, right onto the target.
你可以看到它一点一点地靠近，直到目标上。
That was impressive.
那真令人印象深刻。
The swords can track down the enemy with precision, but what can this mechanical beast really deliver?
剑可以精确追踪敌人，但这个机械野兽真的能带来什么？
I'm here at Picatinny Indoor Range to fire it for myself.
我现在在皮卡廷尼室内射击场，亲自射击。
Anything can happen when a robot is given a machine gun, so we're taking extra precautions.

So easy to get back on target.
重新瞄准目标太容易了。
It can literally pepper the enemy with pinpoint precision at 300 yards.
它实际上可以在300码的距离上用极高的精确度向敌人密集射击。
That's pretty impressive.
那相当令人印象深刻。
It offers such a stable platform to shoot.
它提供了一个非常稳定的射击平台。
You don't have to think about breathing, steady trigger pull.
你不需要考虑呼吸，稳定的扳机拉动。
You don't have to take into consideration wind as much.
你不需要太多考虑风的影响。
I mean, this gives you a very steady, very flat, very stable platform to deliver a lot of firepower really simply.
我的意思是，这为你提供了一个非常稳定、非常平稳、非常稳固的平台，可以非常简单地投放大量火力。
Next, it's been a huge success in combat for a quarter of a century.
接下来，它在战斗中取得了巨大的成功，已有四分之一个世纪。
So what makes the new Apache even smarter than before?
那么，新的阿帕奇比以前更聪明在哪里？
Coming up, the Apache Longbow in action.
接下来，阿帕奇长弓的实战演示。
The enemy calls it the Angel of Death.
敌人称它为死亡天使。
It sneaks up on its targets delivering a lethal payload of weapons.
它悄无声息地接近目标，投放致命的武器有效载荷。
A lot of times the enemies hit, never heard us, never seen us.
很多时候，敌人被击中了，从未听到我们的声音，从未看到我们。
It's a complete surprise to them, and we kind of like it that way.
这对他们来说是个完全的惊喜，我们也喜欢这样。
This is the Apache Longbow, the latest version of a military classic.
这是阿帕奇长弓，这是一款军事经典的最新版本。
The Apache helicopter has been around since the early 1980s and is widely regarded as the most successful combat-proven advanced attack helicopter on the planet.
阿帕奇直升机自1980年代初就存在，被广泛认为是地球上最成功的战斗验证过的先进攻击直升机。
But what new tricks can you teach this old war dog when it already seems to be invincible on the modern battlefield?
但是，当它在现代战场上已经似乎不可战胜时，你还能教这只老战犬什么新把戏呢？
The Apache helicopter has fought in every U.S.
阿帕奇直升机参加了每一场美国的
conflict since it took to the skies during the Panama War.
冲突，自从它在巴拿马战争期间首次升空。
Today's Longbow offers invaluable support to the fight against insurgents flying dangerous missions throughout Afghanistan and Iraq.
今天的长弓为对抗叛乱分子的战斗提供了宝贵的支持，在阿富汗和伊拉克执行危险任务。
This is the heart of Alabama, the U.S.
这是阿拉巴马州的心脏地带，美国
Army's headquarters for Apache training.
军队的阿帕奇训练总部。
I'm here to get a closer look at the Longbow and see it deliver its payload.
我在这里近距离观察长弓，并看它投放有效载荷。
As the regiment's motto says, they're trained to kill.
正如该团的座右铭所说，他们接受了杀戮训练。
And with the new Longbow, they have the perfect partner.
有了新的长弓，他们有了完美的伙伴。
So, how does the Longbow's new technology make the Apache even more invincible than before?
那么，长弓的新技术是如何使阿帕奇比以前更加不可战胜的呢？
With a fire control radar system located just above the rotor blades, the Apache can gather and process more information from the battlefield and deliver it to the crew within seconds.
有了位于旋翼叶片上方的火控雷达系统，阿帕奇可以从战场上收集和处理更多信息，并在几秒钟内将其传递给机组人员。
Pilots now have the ability to scan, detect, and classify up to 128 targets and prioritize the 16 most dangerous threats.
飞行员现在有能力扫描、检测和分类多达128个目标，并优先处理16个最危险的威胁。
Then they can transmit that information to other aircraft so they can initiate a precision attack all in less than a minute.
然后他们可以将这些信息传输给其他飞机，以便在不到一分钟的时间内发起精确攻击。
There's really not any target we can engage with this system now.
现在我们可以用这个系统攻击任何目标。
This has turned individual warriors into a combined super weapon, working as a smart network in today's digital battlefield.
这已经将个体战士转变为一个联合的超级武器，在当今的数字战场中作为一个智能网络工作。
It can detect targets in very poor weather conditions.
它可以在非常恶劣的天气条件下探测目标。
So how can a close combat helicopter strike with precision from a much safer distance?
那么，近战直升机如何能从更安全的距离精确打击呢？
That's where the next generation of smart Hellfire missiles come in.
这就是下一代智能地狱火导弹的用武之地。
The only real weapons change that we had from the Alpha model to the Delta model, the Longbow, is what we call an RF missile.
我们从阿尔法型号到德尔塔型号，长弓，唯一真正的武器变化是我们所说的RF导弹。
It's coincided with the FCR and is more of a fire-and-forget missile.
它与FCR相结合，更像是一种发射后不管的导弹。
Once we identify the target or pick it up on our radar, we can initiate, fire the weapon system, and fly away, and the missile itself will track that target and destroy it.
一旦我们识别出目标或在我们的雷达上捕捉到它，我们可以启动，发射武器系统，然后飞走，导弹本身会追踪那个目标并摧毁它。
These Hellfire missiles use a state-of-the-art radar frequency seeker instead of a laser to lock onto their targets.
这些地狱火导弹使用最先进的雷达频率寻找器而不是激光来锁定目标。
With 16 Hellfire missiles, if that's what you choose to carry, you can look at that's 16 tanks right away.
如果你选择携带16枚地狱火导弹，你可以看到那是立刻的16辆坦克。
And with multiple aircraft, you can take out quite a bit.
而且有了多架飞机，你可以摧毁相当多的目标。
Combine this with the Apache's other weapon systems, and you've got one of the most feared killers in the sky.
结合阿帕奇的其他武器系统，你就拥有了天空中最令人畏惧的杀手。
With 70mm rockets mounted on both sides, the Apache can deliver total destruction.
阿帕奇可以在两侧安装70毫米火箭，造成彻底的破坏。
We can carry rocket pods on the outside and shoot up to 38 of those at any given time.
我们可以在外面携带火箭弹荚，并且可以在任何时候射击多达38枚。
But the weapon proving most valuable in today's urban combat is the 30mm cannon.
但在今天的城市战斗中证明最有价值的武器是30毫米机炮。
This lethal machine gun offers close support for Allied troops in Afghanistan and Iraq.
这种致命的机枪为阿富汗和伊拉克的盟军部队提供近距离支援。
The 30mm can fire at approximately 600 rounds per minute and it can penetrate multiple inches of armor.
30毫米机炮可以以每分钟大约600发的速度射击，并且可以穿透数英寸的装甲。
We're able to bring that weapon system to bear on a target as quickly and as simply as looking at the target that we desire and pulling the weapons trigger.
我们能够尽快、尽可能简单地将武器系统对准目标，只需看着我们想要的目标并扣动武器扳机。
So how much damage can the Apache cause with this fast weapons payload?
那么，阿帕奇用这种快速武器有效载荷能造成多大的破坏呢？
I'm off to the firing range to see it in action.
我要去射击场看它的实战表现。
Flying today's mission is Captain Hurst and his co-pilot and gunner, James Morrow.
今天执行任务的是赫斯特上尉和他的副驾驶兼炮手詹姆斯·莫罗。
At speeds approaching 200 miles per hour, they conduct missions against a wide range of relocatable targets.
以接近每小时200英里的速度，他们对各种可移动目标执行任务。
These helicopters are seeing urban combat like never before.
这些直升机像以前从未见过的那样参与城市战斗。
And to be successful in that type of environment, you need new tactics and new strategies.
要在这种环境中取得成功，你需要新的战术和新的策略。
And this Apache unit has just returned from Iraq.
这个阿帕奇部队刚从伊拉克返回。
And like any good frontline battle, it's always nice to have a little fireworks to start it off.
就像任何好的前线战斗一样，开始时总是有点烟火。
This is the target.
这是目标。
Their tactical role is deep mission attacks, taking out key threats well ahead of the ground troops.
他们的战术角色是深入任务攻击，提前清除地面部队面前的关键威胁。
Using the Longbow's fire control radar, pilots can now act with greater speed and precision on the battlefield.
使用长弓的火控雷达，飞行员现在可以在战场上以更快的速度和精确度行动。
And it's in close combat that the Apache is most effective.
在近战中，阿帕奇最有效。
Here it comes.
它来了。
It screams up to the surface, gets right to the attack angle.
它呼啸着冲向地面，直接进入攻击角度。
There's no chance.
没有机会。
The 30mm cannon carries 1,200 rounds for rapid engagement on enemy vehicles and personnel, and can pierce through several inches of armor.
30毫米机炮携带1200发弹药，可快速打击敌方车辆和人员，并能穿透数英寸厚的装甲。
I'll tell you, as the good guys, you want to hear the Apache.
我告诉你，作为好人，你会想听到阿帕奇的声音。
As the bad guys, you never get a chance.
作为坏人，你永远没有机会。
It hugs low, keeps that sound suppressed, pops up, and delivers all the firepower you ever need.
它贴低飞行，压低声音，突然升起，提供你所需的全部火力。
As a matter of fact, it just popped up now.
事实上，它现在刚刚升起。
And the beautiful thing about that bird, it can fly on the dime.
而那只鸟的美妙之处在于，它能够灵活飞行。
It turns around.
它转了个弯。
Boom.
砰。
And its rockets will blast through light armor and soft skin vehicles in a flash.
它的火箭会在一瞬间穿透轻装甲和软壳车辆。
You don't want to be in that tank.
你不会想在那辆坦克里。
That's an amazing thing.
那真是了不起的事情。
There is no other helicopter that packs the punch of an Apache.
没有其他直升机能像阿帕奇那样具有强大的攻击力。
That bird is all business.
那只鸟全是生意。
The Apache may be lethal by day, but when night falls, this killer dragonfly really comes to life.
阿帕奇白天可能是致命的，但夜幕降临时，这只杀手蜻蜓才真正活跃起来。
A very wise man once said, there's nothing to fear but fear itself.
一位非常明智的人曾经说过，除了恐惧本身，没有什么好害怕的。
I can tell you, he never had to face the Apache helicopter at night.
我可以告诉你，他从未在夜晚面对过阿帕奇直升机。
State-of-the-art sensors located on the rotating turrets on the nose of the longbow transmit thermal images to a small display unit in the pilot and gunner's helmets and offer improved vision over long ranges.
位于长弓机鼻旋转炮塔上的最先进传感器将热成像传输到飞行员和炮手头盔中的小显示器上，提供了超远距离的改进视野。
coming out of nowhere in a pitch black night.
在漆黑的夜晚，悄无声息地出现。
You never have a chance to see it coming.
你永远没有机会看到它来临。
It's a living nightmare on a battlefield.
它是战场上的活生生的噩梦。
Look at that.
看那个。
That tank has no chance.
那辆坦克没有机会。
Just like that.
就这样。
I think that's what fear is all about.
我认为这就是恐惧的全部意义。
With flexibility and ferocious firepower, this smart helicopter is set for another 25 years of frontline combat service.
凭借灵活性和凶猛的火力，这架智能直升机准备在前线战斗中再服役25年。
Coming up next, what makes Excalibur the world's smartest artillery round?
接下来，是什么让Excalibur成为世界上最聪明的炮弹？
But the backbone of warfare has always been heavy artillery.
但战争的支柱始终是重炮。
It's been an effective weapon against infantry, tank, and armored divisions.
它对步兵、坦克和装甲师是一种有效的武器。
Very little survives an artillery barrage.
很少有东西能在炮击中幸存下来。
The howitzer field gun has been around in one form or another for over 500 years.
榴弹炮已经以某种形式存在了500多年。
And even though today's versions can wreak havoc at distances up to 20 miles, their limitations are exactly the same.
尽管今天的版本可以在20英里外造成破坏，但它们的局限性完全相同。
Accuracy is a real problem.
准确性是一个真正的问题。
Shells can drift in the wind and can be off target by as much as two football fields.
炮弹可能会在风中漂移，目标可能会偏离两个足球场那么远。
And that's a big problem when the battle is being fought in the city.
当战斗在城市中进行时，这是一个大问题。
Cities like Baghdad.
像巴格达这样的城市。
Cities filled with hospitals and schools.
充满了医院和学校的城市。
Cities filled with innocent civilians.
充满了无辜平民的城市。
Insurgents are using the city to their advantage, operating next to innocent bystanders with a tactic called hugging.
暴乱分子利用城市作为他们的优势，采取称为“拥抱”的战术，与无辜的旁观者站在一起。
Laying down an indiscriminate barrage is simply not an option.
随意进行炮击根本不是一个选项。
The artillery has to strike with almost pinpoint accuracy.
炮兵必须几乎精确地打击目标。
So how do you compensate for changing wind conditions and the basic laws of physics in order to drop your firepower right on the target?
那么，你如何补偿变化的风向条件和基本的物理定律，以便将火力精确地投放到目标上？
That's what I've come to the Arizona desert to find out.
我来到亚利桑那州的沙漠就是为了找出答案。
Yuma is where nearly every weapon system in the ground combat arsenal is tested.
尤马是几乎所有地面战斗武器系统测试的地方。
It covers an area of more than 1,300 square miles, and it's just the kind of place the artillery loves.
它覆盖了1300多平方英里的区域，正是炮兵喜欢的地方。
The Army is testing out the next generation of artillery shells, the XM982, otherwise known as Excalibur.
军队正在测试下一代炮弹，即XM982，又称为Excalibur。
It's still highly experimental, but the designers claim to have made it accurate to within 10 yards.
它仍然是高度实验性的，但设计师声称它的精确度可以达到10码以内。
And that's when it's fired from over 25 miles away.
而且是从25英里外发射的。
That's like hitting this quarter with a bullet from three blocks away.
这就像用子弹从三个街区外击中这个硬币。
That's 20 times more accurate than any conventional artillery shell.
这比任何常规炮弹都要精确20倍。
The top brass are flying in, and Colonel Tanzi arrives in style.
高级军官们飞来，Tanzi上校带着风格到达。
He's responsible for the entire U.S.
他负责整个美国
Army's artillery.
军队的炮兵。
For years, he's been chasing his own Holy Grail, an artillery shell that strikes with pinpoint accuracy.
多年来，他一直在追求他自己的圣杯，一种精确打击的炮弹。
We don't want to take the mosque out.
我们不想摧毁清真寺。
We don't want to take the family out by accident, you know, with any kind of accidental firing.
我们不想意外地摧毁家庭，你知道，任何意外射击。
This gives the commander that capability.
这给了指挥官那种能力。
That capability is possible because Excalibur is smart.
之所以有这种能力，是因为Excalibur很聪明。
It has its very own guidance system.
它有自己的导航系统。
It's the first artillery shell to be fitted with a GPS navigational system.
它是第一个配备GPS导航系统的炮弹。
The GPS guides the projectile straight onto the target, regardless of weather conditions.
GPS将弹头直接引导到目标上，无论天气条件如何。
It does this by controlling Excalibur's front fins.
它通过控制Excalibur前部的鳍片来实现这一点。
Once it's fired out of the cannon, the fins kick out and the GPS system takes over, guiding Excalibur onto the target.
一旦从大炮中发射出去，鳍片就会弹出，GPS系统接管，将Excalibur引导到目标上。
This level of precision means that troops can operate in front of artillery without the fear of being hit from stray shells.
这种精确度意味着部队可以在炮火前方操作，而不用担心被迷路的炮弹击中。
Friendly fire is one of the biggest hazards in modern combat.
友军火力是现代战斗中最大的危险之一。
Excalibur could allow soldiers to operate safely even with their own artillery raining down.
Excalibur可以让士兵即使在自己的炮火下也能安全地操作。
What that does for the warfighter, quite honestly, is now he can get that much closer to the action where he needs to say, I want somebody in that building over there to be taken out.
这对战斗人员来说意味着什么，坦白说，现在他可以更接近他需要说的行动，我希望那栋楼里的某个人被消灭。
And he can just be a few hundred meters away, watch the bullet come into the building, detonate, and take out the folks inside.
他可以只离几百米远，看着子弹进入建筑物，引爆，消灭里面的人。
And now he doesn't have to worry about running across the street and getting sniped at anymore.
现在他不必担心穿过街道被狙击了。
The GPS system isn't the only thing that's unique about Excalibur.
GPS系统不是Excalibur唯一独特的地方。
It's been designed to fly very differently from regular shells because it has to fly over tall buildings to find its target.
它被设计成与常规炮弹非常不同的飞行方式，因为它必须飞越高楼大厦找到目标。
Normally in the past artillery has an angle of fall which is 45-50 degree angle of fall and it's basically dependent upon the range of firing.
通常在过去，炮兵有一个下落角度是45-50度角，基本上取决于射程。
Excalibur on the other hand has a high angle of fire, high angle of fall.
另一方面，Excalibur有一个高射角，高下落角。
This flying pattern defeats the enemy's tactic of hugging, where they deliberately stay close to schools, hospitals, or churches in order to shield themselves.
这种飞行模式打败了敌人的“拥抱”战术，他们故意靠近学校、医院或教堂，以此来保护自己。
A lot of the enemy insurgent strongholds, they'll have mortar positions in defilade.
很多敌人的叛乱据点，他们会在掩体后面有迫击炮位置。
In other words, behind a building where our angle of attack can't necessarily acquire that target.
换句话说，在我们的攻击角度不能必然获得目标的建筑物后面。
So now with Excalibur, we'll come in on a high angle of fall, can't hide from us anymore.
所以现在有了Excalibur，我们会以高下落角进入，他们再也无处可藏。
Psychologically, what would that do to the enemy?
心理上，这会对敌人产生什么影响？
Well, I mean, there's no place he can run.
嗯，我的意思是，他无处可逃。
Preparations are underway to fire Excalibur, but its sensitive electronics pose a real problem for designers.
准备发射Excalibur，但其敏感的电子设备对设计师来说是一个真正的问题。
No GPS system has ever survived being fired from a cannon.
没有GPS系统曾经在从大炮中发射后幸存下来。
So how do you make its circuitry cannon-proof?
那么，你如何使其电路板炮弹证明？
The cards are specifically aligned so that the G-forces act along one of their mechanical axes so that it doesn't cause them to bend.
卡片是特别对齐的，以便G力沿着它们的一个机械轴作用，这样就不会导致它们弯曲。
And in addition to that, all of the sensitive electronics are mounted in such a way that they're resistant to the shock loads.
此外，所有敏感的电子设备都以抗冲击负载的方式安装。
Excalibur's GPS system has to survive forces of 8,000 Gs.
Excalibur的GPS系统必须承受8000G的力。
Nothing like this has been attempted before.
以前从未尝试过这样的事情。
So you think of a lot of electronics in here, you know, we have crystal oscillators and a lot of silicon chips that are very delicate, and yet we're hitting them with a sledgehammer, dropping them off the Empire State Building and saying, okay, now you got to work when you get to the bottom.
所以你想想这里有很多电子设备，你知道，我们有晶体振荡器和很多硅片，它们非常脆弱，然而我们用大锤击打它们，从帝国大厦上扔下来，然后说，好吧，现在你到底部时必须工作。
Today, they're pushing it to the limit by firing it at over 16,000 Gs.
今天，他们通过以超过16000G的力量发射它来将其推向极限。
So we're actually testing it at twice the requirement that it'll ever see in the field.
所以我们实际上是在测试它的两倍要求，它在实地永远不会看到。
And so we're intentionally trying to break things and find where the weak points in the design are, so we can address those early, get them fixed, so we can make sure we have a highly reliable system and something that's going to work for the soldier in all conditions that he could ever possibly find himself in.
因此，我们故意试图打破东西，找出设计中的薄弱点，这样我们就可以提前解决这些问题，修复它们，以确保我们有一个高度可靠的系统，以及在他可能发现自己的所有条件下都能为士兵工作的东西。
It's not every day you get to blow up a quarter of a million dollars, because that's what each experimental round costs.
因为每个实验性的弹药成本是25万美元，所以你不是每天都能炸掉它。
The pressure on the team is intense.
团队的压力很大。
They're pushing the envelope on technology.
他们正在推动技术的极限。
And they have to deliver Excalibur to the Army in record time.
他们必须在创纪录的时间内将Excalibur交付给军队。
We're actually going to field it two years sooner than was originally anticipated.
我们实际上要比最初预期的提前两年部署它。
So we've had to take a lot of extraordinary measures to get this capability out as soon as we can.
所以我们不得不采取很多非同寻常的措施，尽快获得这种能力。
Has the tight schedule compromised Excalibur?
紧迫的时间表是否妥协了Excalibur？
Will it actually work?
它真的会起作用吗？
That's what we're about to find out.
这就是我们即将发现的。
They're dealing with an experimental round that's packed with 12 pounds of high explosive.
他们正在处理一个装有12磅高爆炸药的实验性弹药。
The test director is understandably nervous.
测试主管可以理解地紧张。
They're about to set the fuse.
他们正准备设置引信。
Excalibur is now live.
Excalibur现在已经启动。
Months of work come down to this moment.
数月的工作就在这一刻展现成果。
Next, can Excalibur deliver the goods?
接下来，Excalibur能否交付货物？
This is Yuma Proving Ground, where the U.S.
这是美国尤马试验场，
Artillery are testing the latest weapon in their deadly arsenal.
炮兵正在测试他们致命武器库中的最新武器。
The Excalibur is a smart projectile, but will it rain down terror on today's live firing?
Excalibur是一种智能弹药，但它今天的实弹射击能否带来恐惧？
It's time to retreat to a safe distance.
是时候撤退到安全距离了。
Firing Excalibur at 16,000 G's creates a dangerous overpressure.
以16000 G的力量发射Excalibur会产生危险的超压。
Overpressure is a blast wave that hits at over five times the speed of sound.
超压是一种冲击波，以超过音速五倍的速度袭来。
It can blow out eardrums, so everybody has to take cover.
它能炸破耳膜，所以每个人都必须找地方躲避。
Excalibur is closely tracked by ground radar.
Excalibur被地面雷达紧密追踪。
We're still getting damage.
我们仍然在遭受损害。
It hits the target within seven yards.
它击中目标在七码内。
Colonel Tanzi is one happy man.
Tanzi上校是一个快乐的人。
Starting to get some real shooting in.
开始进行一些真正的射击。
Today was a great success, but the biggest challenge for Excalibur is still to come.
今天是一个巨大的成功，但Excalibur面临的最大挑战还在后头。
Now, at Yuma Proving Ground, the artillery team are going to push the Excalibur to its limits by shooting it four miles off course.
现在，在尤马试验场，炮兵团队将通过将Excalibur射偏四英里来将其推向极限。
Will its GPS system guide it back onto the target?
它的GPS系统能否将它引导回目标上？
The target is actually 22 kilometers up in this direction you can see on the map, but the importance of the shot is it's going to be an offset shot.
目标实际上在这个方向上22公里远，你可以在地图上看到，但这次射击的重要性在于它将是一个偏移射击。
It's going to be offset by 15 degrees along this angle, and what it's going to do for us is show the maneuverability of the X-Calibre projectile.
它将沿着这个角度偏移15度，这对我们来说将展示X-Calibre弹药的机动性。
Even when it's so far off course, the designers hope the GPS system will guide it back onto the target area.
即使它偏离了这么远的航线，设计师们希望GPS系统能将它引导回目标区域。
If it works, it could spell the end of Allied forces being accidentally hit by friendly fire.
如果它起作用，可能意味着盟军不再被友军误伤。
So that means any friendlies we have between the gun and the target on the gun target line are safe.
所以这意味着我们在炮和目标之间的任何友军都是安全的。
We can actually predict the flight path from left to right in on the target laterally.
我们实际上可以预测飞行路径，从左到右横向进入目标。
Incredible capability for us.
对我们来说是不可思议的能力。
I've never seen this done before.
我以前从未见过这样做。
Although this has never been done before, Colonel Tanzi gives Chris Crisano an offer he can't refuse.
尽管以前从未有过这样的尝试，但Tanzi上校给了Chris Crisano一个他无法拒绝的提议。
I say inside of five meters.
我说在五米内。
Take the bet.

Inside of seven meters, I buy you dinner.
在七米内，我请你吃晚餐。
The last time I ate dinner on a bet, I ordered all of page three on a menu.
上次我因为赌注吃晚餐时，我点了菜单上第三页的所有东西。
Okay, we have about 20 seconds before I count up.
好的，我们还有大约20秒就开始倒数。
Excalibur is 30 seconds into its flight.
Excalibur飞行了30秒。
It's due to hit in 90 seconds, if it's on target.
如果它准确无误，它应该在90秒内击中目标。
All eyes are on the clock.
所有人的目光都盯着时钟。
Everything worked perfectly.
一切工作完美无缺。
Excalibur leaves the howitzer traveling at over 183 yards per second.
Excalibur以每秒超过183码的速度离开榴弹炮。
That's over 400 miles an hour.
那是超过400英里每小时。
The onboard GPS corrected its flight path to guide it within two yards of the target.
机载GPS纠正了它的飞行路径，将其引导至目标两码内。
Excalibur is the first cannon-fired munition to correct itself in flight.
Excalibur是第一个在飞行中自我校正的大炮发射弹药。
After years of development, Colonel Tansey's got the weapon he wanted, with a free lunch thrown in.
经过多年的开发，Tanzi上校得到了他想要的武器，并且还有免费的午餐。
Artillery, just by the nature of artillery itself, is a big weapon system.
炮兵，仅凭其本质，就是一个大型武器系统。
It has a big impact on the battlefield.
它在战场上有巨大的影响。
We've all seen pictures of World War II, World War I, and what artillery does in battle.
我们都看过二战、一战的图片，以及炮兵在战斗中的作用。
But now, given the precision of Excalibur, and by nature this weapon being as smart as it is, confidence level skyrockets.
但现在，鉴于Excalibur的精确性，以及这种武器本身的智能，信心水平飙升。
