Trump je mornarici ukazal, naj se vrne k starejšemu sistemu izstrelitve letal z letalonosilk.

Predsednik Trump je ameriški mornarici ukazal, naj opusti elektromagnetski sistem za izstrelitev letal (EMALS) na četrti letalski ladjici razreda Ford, USS Doris Miller, in se vrne na tradicionalne parne katapulte. Ta odločitev, opisana v memorandumu, odraža Trumpovo dolgoletno kritiko EMALS, za katero trdi, da je manj zmogljiva od starejših parnih sistemov. Ta poteza bi lahko stala milijarde in otežila operacije mornarice, saj je EMALS zasnovan tako, da je bolj učinkovit in sodoben. Direktiva prav tako poziva k zamenjavi dvižnikov elektromagnetnega orožja na letalski ladjici razreda Ford. Medtem ko Kitajska in Francija sprejemajo EMALS, Trumpov ukaz poudarja pomisleke glede stroškov, vzdrževanja in osebja ter zahtev. General Atomics, proizvajalec EMALS, je opozoril, da bi obratovanje odločitve predstavljalo izzive in tveganja. Razprava o financiranju sovpada s tekočimi razvojnimi časi in naraščajočimi vojaškimi stroški vojne z Iranom.

President Donald Trump has directed the U.S. Navy to abandon the advanced electromagnetic catapult system used on its newest aircraft carriers and revert to the older steam-powered systems he has publicly favored for years. The directive, issued on Thursday, instructs the Pentagon and the Navy to submit detailed plans within two months to replace the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) and Advanced Weapons Elevators on the USS Doris Miller, a fourth Ford-class carrier under construction, with steam catapults and hydraulic systems. This decision marks a significant reversal in naval technology and raises concerns among defense officials, manufacturers, and lawmakers about potential cost increases, project delays, and the broader implications for U.S. military modernization. The move follows years of public criticism from Trump, who has repeatedly dismissed EMALS as overly complex and inefficient compared to the traditional steam catapults. During an interview with Time magazine in 2017, Trump claimed the new system was “not good” and “doesn’t have the power” of the older steam systems, famously declaring, “You’re going to goddamned steam.” His comments have echoed at numerous campaign events and rallies, reflecting a consistent stance that has influenced military procurement decisions. The directive now formalizes this preference, targeting the USS Doris Miller, which is scheduled to enter service in 2034 after years of delays attributed to shipyard constraints and design complexities. The Navy’s Ford-class carriers represent the cutting edge of naval aviation technology, designed to replace the aging Nimitz-class fleet. These carriers feature EMALS, which uses electromagnetic propulsion to launch aircraft more efficiently than steam catapults. EMALS reduces the number of sailors required to operate the launch systems, cuts maintenance requirements, and allows for greater flexibility in launching a wide range of aircraft, from drones to heavy fighters. The system also enables faster launch rates and improved operational readiness. However, Trump’s directive aims to dismantle these advancements, reverting to steam catapults, which require more personnel, consume more space, and demand more frequent maintenance. General Atomics, the company responsible for developing EMALS, has raised alarms about the potential consequences of reversing course on the USS Doris Miller. According to a statement shared with Reuters, the company noted that work on the carrier’s catapults and arresting gear is approximately 50% complete, and changing direction now would introduce “significant cost, schedule, and integration risks.” The firm also pointed out that the decision could disrupt the entire construction process, affecting multiple components of the ship’s design and operations. Additionally, General Atomics highlighted that the company had secured a $1.2 billion contract in 2023 specifically for the Doris Miller’s launch and recovery systems, further underscoring the financial stakes involved. The directive also calls for the replacement of the Advanced Weapons Elevators (AWEs) on the Ford-class carriers with hydraulic systems. AWEs are critical for transporting ordnance from storage to the flight deck, enabling rapid deployment of weapons during combat scenarios. By removing these systems, the Navy will lose a key component of its operational capabilities, potentially impacting mission readiness and response times. The memo further notes that the U.S. shipbuilding industry faces challenges, including delays and rising costs, due to an outdated infrastructure and limited capacity to meet current demands. Trump cited these factors as justification for shifting back to proven, conventional technologies. The decision has sparked controversy among military experts and former officials, many of whom argue that EMALS represents a strategic advantage in modern warfare. For example, the system allows for the launch of heavier aircraft and unmanned drones, enhancing the Navy’s versatility in contested environments. Moreover, the technology supports the Navy’s goal of maintaining superiority over potential adversaries, including nations like China, which has deployed EMALS on its newest aircraft carrier, the Type 003 Fujian. France, too, has announced plans to incorporate EMALS into its future carrier, signaling a global trend toward adopting the technology. Meanwhile, the U.S. Congress is grappling with the challenge of securing sufficient funding for military programs, including the ongoing conflict in the Persian Gulf. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth recently estimated the war’s cost at $37.5 billion, emphasizing the urgency of allocating resources to sustain operations and modernize the armed forces. With the House having narrowly approved a $95 billion funding package, the Senate’s approval remains pending, adding another layer of complexity to the Navy’s efforts to implement Trump’s directives. The Navy has faced persistent staffing shortages, with approximately 20,000 positions unfilled across its fleet at the beginning of the year. Reverting to a system that requires more sailors to operate could exacerbate these challenges, especially as the service struggles to retain qualified personnel. The decision to prioritize steam catapults may also impact training protocols and operational efficiency, raising questions about the long-term viability of the Navy’s modernization strategy. As the Navy prepares to revise its plans for the USS Doris Miller, the broader implications of this shift extend beyond a single ship. The move reflects a growing tension between political leadership and military expertise, highlighting the influence of executive orders on technological advancement and strategic planning. The outcome of this directive will depend on how effectively the Navy navigates the logistical, financial, and operational hurdles associated with retrofitting a fully constructed carrier. The final decision on whether to proceed with the change will likely hinge on congressional support, interagency coordination, and the continued evolution of naval warfare in an increasingly competitive geopolitical landscape.

Trumpova sprememba letalskega prevoznika opozarja na višje stroške in zamude.

Predsednik Donald Trump je ukazal Pentagonu in mornarici, naj razmislijo o zamenjavi sistema za lansiranje elektromagnetnih letal (EMALS) in naprednih dvigala za orožje na USS Doris Miller s parnimi katapulti in hidravličnimi sistemi. Obrambni analitiki, izvajalci in nekdanji uradniki opozarjajo, da bi ta sprememba lahko povzročila povečane stroške, zamude in preklic oblikovalskih odločitev, ki jih je mornarica izvajala več let. Predlog prihaja med širšimi razpravami o preoblikovanju otoka (komandnega stolpa) na nosilcih razreda Ford, da bi se uskladili s Trumpovimi estetskimi preferencami, za katere nekateri trdijo, da bi lahko motili operacije in dodali znatno finančno breme. Mornariški uradniki so navedli, da je bila trenutna postavitev otoka izbrana zaradi operativnih koristi, vključno z izboljšanjem učinkovitosti in varnosti letal, in da predhodne študije kažejo, da bi taka preoblikovanje lahko stalo milijarde in povzročilo znatne zamude.

Trump je mornarici ukazal, naj se znebi elektromagnetnih katapultov in se vrne na parno energijo.

Predsednik Trump je ameriški mornarici ukazal, naj opusti namestitev elektromagnetnih katapultov (EMALS) na prihodnjih letalonosilkah, vključno z USS Doris Miller, in se vrne na tradicionalne lansirne sisteme na parni pogon. Ukaz, naveden v memorandumu z naslovom "Obnova mornarice Združenih držav Amerike in ameriške industrijske baze za ladjedelništvo", naroča obrambnemu sekretarju Peteu Hegsethu, naj v 60 dneh predloži načrt za zamenjavo EMALS z parnimi in hidravličnimi sistemi. Trump je kritiziral EMALS, ker je drag in nezanesljiv, in je navedel pomisleke glede njegove zapletenosti in finančnega vpliva. Odločitev sledi njegovi pretekli kritici sistema, vključno s pripombami med intervjujem z revijo Time, kjer je izrazil skepticizem glede njegovega razvoja. Medtem ko zagovorniki trdijo, da EMALS ponuja večjo prožnost in učinkovitost, so kritikovi, kot je senator Mark Kelly, zavrnili Trumpovo vključenost v pomorsko inženiring.
