无人潜航器集群式自主协同作战概念

The concept of autonomous cooperative operation for unmanned underwater vehicles

提出一种基于无人潜航器的集群式自主协同作战概念。这一概念是指一定数量规模的智能无人潜航器作为主体与有人舰船(或潜艇)相互配合,组成水下自主协同作战集群。该集群可在任务水域遂行水下游猎作战、水下伏击作战和水下封锁作战,执行自主态势感知、自主目标识别、自主航行巡弋及自主展开攻击等任务,对敌航母、驱逐舰、核潜艇等目标实施集群攻击,或执行重要目标防卫任务,在提升作战效能的同时,大幅提高作战效费比,颠覆传统水下攻防样式,构建新的非对称作战优势。为分析作战效能,针对三种典型作战场景,构建仿真环境进行模拟测试,验证了作战实效,并结合作战任务需求,提出了未来技术发展方向。

In this paper,a concept of autonomous cooperative combat clusters based on unmanned underwater vehicles for naval operations is proposed.This concept envisions a primary force of intelligent unmanned submersibles cooperating with manned submarines.This combined force would be tasked with carrying out anti-submarine,ambush,and blockade missions in contested waters.Combat clusters would utilize autonomous systems to provide commanders with increased situational awareness as well as target recognition,navigation,and attack capabilities.These forces would provide both defensive and offensive capabilities,with the latter including swarming attacks on large warship targets such as enemy aircraft carriers,destroyers,and nuclear submarines.This doctrine will subvert traditional underwater attack and defense styles and provide a new and disruptive asymmetrical operational advantage,and this force structure will considerably improve operational effectiveness while dramatically reducing costs.We conduct a simulation of three typical combat scenarios to analyze the combat-effectiveness of such autonomous cooperative clusters.Future directions for the development of naval technologies are also proposed to meet the requirements of joint combat missions.
