美国国防部指令5000.01重大变革分析及启示

美国国防采办系统是世界上最为庞大、复杂、严谨、运转稳定的采办系统,为维持美国的强大军事优势做出了突出贡献。近年来,为了确保军事技术优势的可持续发展,美国的国防采办系统在国防战略牵引下,也一直处于不断调整完善之中,并且有不断加速的趋势。2020年,美国国防部总结各项采办改革实践中的经验和教训,对国防部指令5000.01《国防采办系统》进行了重大变革调整。本文首先简要介绍了此次变革的背景;其次,从政策和职能两个方面分析了变革的内容,探究国防采办政策的新变化与新思路,管窥国防采办系统的发展动向;最后,在上述研究基础上,从法规政策、新科技运用等四个方面提出几点启示,以期为军队装备采购工作提供借鉴与参考。

United States defence contractors and the future of military operations

ABSTRACT

The United States’ global strategic outlook has shifted markedly since the end of major combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. As the United States’ strategic posture shifts, the nature of military operations is simultaneously changing rapidly. Many analysts predict that cyber-operations, autonomous weapons systems, artificial intelligence, and clandestine special forces operations will be central features in future conflicts. Although often overlooked by scholars and policy analysts, defence contractors are integral to the development and implementation of these emerging categories of warfare. This inquiry examines the evolving nature of the American defence industry and the roles corporations play in current theatres of conflict. Surprisingly, rather than becoming less reliant on defence contractors after their much-maligned performance in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, American military and intelligence agencies have become more dependent on the private sector as technology becomes increasingly central to warfare.     

Defense Firms Adapting to Major Changes in the French R&D Funding System

The structural changes inside the French innovation system have impacted the role of defense firms since the late 1980s. Major changes have affected the defense budget and public R&D funding system in particular. The aim of this article is to understand French defense firms’ repositioning within the National Innovation System (NIS) based on an analysis of their R&D behavior over a long period of time (1987–2010). We show that French defense firms remain major players in the NIS and faced up to these major changes by adapting the funding of their R&D and their research priorities and rolling out new innovation capabilities. Additionally, they developed new innovation models to take advantage of new collaborative partnerships developed for civil and military markets.     

New sources of military change – armed forces as normal organizations

The literature on how European states have adapted to the post-cold war security environment ffocuses invariably on different understandings of military transformation, a process which is seen as inherently different from other forms of organizational change. However, as this paper argues, new management practices, going back to the introduction of so-called New Public Management (NPM) reforms throughout Europe in the 1980s, have eventually penetrated also the last bastion of the old state – the defense sector. Taking a critical approach to the idea of military transformation and existing theories of military change, the paper demonstrates how other international developments have pushed towards what may be seen as a “normalization” of Europe’s defense sectors. This has important implications for how we approach and understand change in contemporary defense organizations.     

Russian mission-command in VOSTOK strategic exercises

Russian military prefers and exercises differently compare to the Western planning and execution philosophies with mission command allowed and appreciated in sub unit levels only. “Vostok-2018” provided a lot of evidences Russians using de-centralised execution in the sub-unit levels and at the same time centralised control at levels of units and formations.     

【邀请论文】美国2021财年国防高科技预算提案解析

美国总统特朗普向国会提交的2021财年总统预算提案中，包含美国国防预算7054亿美元。2021财年美国国防预算聚焦未来高端作战需求，其中国防研发预算提案1066亿美元，主要用于关键新兴科技和先进能力赋能器的研究和发展，成为有史以来最大规模的研发预算。本文系统梳理了2021财年美国国防预算提案的总体情况，并对该提案中涉及科学技术部分的预算进行了分析，在此基础上，解析了人工智能、自主系统、高超声速、5G与量子通信、太空、生物技术与网络安全等重点领域的具体预算。综合美国对重点新兴科技领域大力投资的预算行为，可以看出美国正在进行重点先进技术的多样化融合，实现其军事技术能力的跳跃式提升。面对美国高强度的国防高科技预算提案，中国应做足准备做到“知己知彼”。
