一、P-3C型機是我國首次引進兼具海上巡邏(MPA)和反潛(ASW)等多重功能的長程定翼飛機,能擔負海上各種類型的作戰任務,具備「多重任務功能海上巡邏機」(MMA)特性,足以應付21世紀日愈複雜的海上多重任務威脅。隨該機引進的「海上任務支援中心」,將是本軍首次接觸能在陸岸上直接支援前線機隊執行任務,並能即時掌握海上任務全景的新形態作戰模式,將改變本軍對多功能海上巡邏機的運用思維。二、本文就P-3C AIP型機的各型裝備及性能分析,再參考美、日兩國機隊部署與運用經驗,並就臺海威脅與環境因素考量,提出P-3C型機的未來運用構想,尤其就「多功能任務支援中心」的運用,將借重美國「戰術支援中心(TSC)」及日本「反潛作戰支援中心(ASWOC)」的運用經驗,做為本軍未來規劃與運用參考。期能藉此引發更多的迴響,以增進該型機的有效運用,共同防衛臺海安全。
1. P-3C aircraft will be completed in 2012 and returned to service in ROCAF. This type of machine is the first time the introduction of both the Maritime Patrol (MPA) and anti- submarine (ASW) and other multi-functional long-range fixed-wing aircraft, plus the after several modifications and performance, the aircraft weapons and equipment have been able to detect responsible for various types of combat missions at sea, with the "multi-tasking functionality maritime patrol aircraft" features, sufficient to meet the 21st century are becoming ever more complex multitasking maritime threats, but also with support for the implementation of joint objectives friendly ISR and attack the cooperative Engagement Capability. Especially with the introduction of the aircraft "sea multifunctional mission support center" (Multi-mission Maritime Support center, MMSC), will be the first contact with the army in the continental fleet ashore direct support frontline tasks, and can immediately grasp the sea panorama of combat mission types, is bound to alter the military maritime patrol aircraft for the use of multi-functional thinking. 2. This article first on the P-3C AIP aircraft of various types of equipment and performance analysis, and then refer to the United States and Japan fleet deployment and use of experiences, and environmental factors on the Taiwan Strait threats and considerations made P-3C type machine vision for the future use especially on the "multi task Support Center" on the use of the United States will draw on "Tactical Support Center (TSC)" and the Japanese "anti-submarine warfare support center (ASWOC)" the use of experience, as the use of military planning and future reference. Able to lead to more of the echo in order to enhance the effective use of this type of machine, the common defense our security.
