美方无人机误入伊朗国境


Iranian state TV released images late Thursday of what it said was an unmanned U.S. drone downed recently just inside Iran's eastern border. The images appear to be the high-tech 1 RQ-170 Sentinel drone, brought down somehow with minimum damage. U.S. officials refuse to confirm whether this is a U.S. spy aircraft, but Pentagon spokesman George Little acknowledges the fear of losing its technology. Technology falling into the wrong hands? Separate and apart from this specific instance - I'm not confirming anything - when U.S. technology falls into the wrong hands, it's always a concern. Earlier this year, the United States abandoned a stealth helicopter that malfunctioned 2 during the raid targeting al-Qaida leader Osama bin 3 Laden 4 in Pakistan.


伊朗电视台上周四发布图片称,伊朗东部边境内有一架美国无人机。高清图片显示是高科技RQ-170侦察机。美方没有对该架侦察机是否为间谍机的问题作出回复,但美方发言人乔治承认美方担心失去技术。技术误入他人之手?这只是举个例子,我并没有对任何事情作出肯定回复,因为美国技术误入他人之手,永远是个让人担心的问题。


 


If this is the drone known as the "Beast of Kandahar," then, like the helicopter, its basic shape, even its skin, is secret. But the CATO Institute's Chris Preble said losing this type of technology to the Iranians is not that big of a threat. He says the U.S. has used drones for at least the past decade as one of many surveillance and defense 5 techniques. The question is whether or not we, the United States, and the other Western powers that are watching the Iranians will change the mix of assets used to monitor them. Last month, the International Atomic Energy Agency released a report citing intelligence about Iranian efforts to develop the technology needed to build nuclear weapons. Western powers suspect Iran is trying to develop such weapons, although Tehran insists its nuclear program is peaceful. Sean Ronny, VOA news, Washington.


今年年初,美国遗弃了一架故障隐形直升机,该架直升机曾用于美方在巴基斯坦突袭本拉登。如果图片上的无人机真为RQ-170,则与那架曾经遗弃的故障隐形直升机一样,无论是基本外形还是机体表皮,都是军事机密。但卡托研究所的克里斯称,将这种技术遗失给伊朗并不是什么大威胁。克里斯说,美国将无人机用于侦查和防御用途至少有10多年的历史。所以问题的关键在于,美国以及其他关注伊朗的西方国家是否会改变监察伊朗的方式。上个月,国际原子能机构发布报告,展示了伊朗在研发核武器方面所进行的努力。西方国家怀疑伊朗试图研发核武器,尽管伊朗方面称其核计划是以和平为目的的。感谢收听肖恩为您从华盛顿发回的VOA新闻。
