Feb. 25, 2026, during a panel on homeland defense at the Air and Space Forces Association's annual warfare symposium in Aurora, Colorado, three senior Air and Space Force generals discussed how their respective combatant commands are working to do just that.
2026年2月25日,在科罗拉多州奥罗拉市举行的空军与太空军协会年度战争研讨会上,三位空军与太空军高级将领在国防专题研讨会上,就各自作战司令部如何推进相关工作进行了深入探讨。
Space Force Gen. Stephen N. Whiting, commander of U.S. Space Command; Air Force Gen. Gregory M. Guillot, commander of U.S. Northern Command and North American Aerospace Defense Command; and Air Force Lt. Gen. Michael J. Lutton, deputy commander of U.S. Strategic Command, spent just under 45 minutes discussing what they view as the biggest threats to the homeland and how they foresee the development of the Golden Dome for America missile defense system, among other topics.
美国太空军司令部司令斯蒂芬·N·怀廷将军,美国空军北方司令部与北美航空航天防御司令部司令格雷戈里·M·吉约特将军,以及美国空军副司令空军中将迈克尔·J·卢顿,在战略司令部召开会议,历时近45分钟,重点讨论了他们认定的对本土的最大威胁,以及对美国“金穹”导弹防御系统发展前景的展望等议题。
Regarding the threat assessment to North America, two of the three leaders agreed that cyberattacks from U.S. adversaries are near the top — if not at the top — of the list.
在北美地区威胁评估方面,三位领导人中有两位一致认为,来自美国敌对势力的网络攻击几乎稳居榜首——即便不是第一。
"The cyber threat is the most persistent and present threat that we have. I'm often asked when doing congressional testimony, 'What's our next attack going to be?' And I say we are under attack right this second in cyber[space] from nation states and proxies to them, trying to get into our systems to the tune of hundreds of millions [of] attempts a day," said Guillot, whose combined NORAD and Northcom commands focus on homeland defense in all domains.
吉约特表示:“网络威胁是我们当前面临的最持久且现实的威胁。在国会作证时,我常被问到‘下一次攻击会是什么?’。我回答说,我们此刻正遭受来自国家及其代理机构的网络攻击,每天有数亿次尝试侵入我们的系统。”其指挥的北美防空司令部(NORAD)与北方司令部(Northcom)联合指挥部专注于全领域国土防御。
Lutton, whose command conducts global operations to deter strategic attacks — particularly nuclear — and employs tailored forces to guarantee the security of the nation and its allies, concurred with Guillot's assessment.
卢顿将军的部队负责全球战略打击(特别是核打击)的威慑行动,并部署定制化部队保障国家及其盟友的安全,他认同吉约特的评估。
"With respect to cyberspace, the ability of cyber to disrupt or deny or degrade — that has a different tempered dimension, if you will, than a ballistic missile [and] there's potential ambiguity with cyber that is very much a focus of [Stratcom]," Lutton said.
卢顿表示:“在网络空间领域,网络攻击具备破坏、阻断或削弱目标的能力——这种能力与弹道导弹存在本质差异,其影响程度也更为微妙。网络攻击的潜在模糊性正是战略司令部重点关注的领域。”
As commander of Spacecom — the command responsible for conducting, planning and integrating joint military space operations with allies to deter aggression, defend national interests, and defeat threats in, from and to space — Whiting said his primary concern is Russia's reported development of a space-based, nuclear-powered anti-satellite capability designed to destroy or disable satellites, particularly in low Earth orbit.
作为太空司令部(Spacecom)指挥官——该司令部负责与盟国协同开展、规划并整合联合军事太空行动,以威慑侵略、捍卫国家利益、应对来自太空及太空活动的威胁——怀廷表示,他最关切的是俄罗斯据称正在研发的太空核反卫星系统,该系统旨在摧毁或瘫痪卫星,尤其针对低地球轨道卫星。
"If Russia were to launch that, of course, it would violate the Outer Space Treaty that they're a signatory to, [and] it would be an incredibly destructive and indiscriminate weapon that would hold all nations' space capabilities at risk," Whiting said.
怀廷表示:“若俄罗斯执意发射该武器,不仅会违反其签署的《外层空间条约》,更会成为极具破坏性且滥杀无辜的武器,使各国太空能力面临严重威胁。”
"And, of course, that's just something that we wouldn't want to tolerate," he added.
“当然,这种事我们绝不能容忍,”他补充道。
In terms of the development of the Golden Dome — which President Donald J. Trump authorized via Executive Order 14186 on Jan. 27, 2025 — all three leaders said their respective commands are working closely together and with Space Force Commander Gen. Michael A. Guetlein, the director of the Golden Dome mission.
关于金穹计划的进展——该计划由唐纳德·J·特朗普总统于2025年1月27日通过第14186号行政令批准——三位领导人表示,其下属部队正与太空军司令迈克尔·A·盖特莱因将军及金穹计划负责人密切协作。
Guillot said that as soon as Guetlein was confirmed to lead Golden Dome, he flew out to meet with Guillot and Whiting to begin basic planning for the program.
吉约特表示,盖特莱因刚获任金穹计划负责人,他便立即飞赴会面吉约特和怀廷,着手开展项目基础规划工作。
"And the three of us left the room, without any exaggeration, 100% aligned with what we thought Golden Dome for America should look like," Guillot said.
吉约特表示:“我们三人离开房间时,毫不夸张地说,完全认同我们对美国金穹计划应有的设计构想。”
He added that the program is moving along at such a clip that it might have demonstrable capability much faster than initially anticipated.
他补充说,该项目进展迅猛,其实际应用能力的提升速度可能远超最初预期。
"When Golden Dome first was discussed, I think some thought it would be a 2040 … type of capability [but] it's not; it's much closer, and a lot of the capabilities are [already] there," Guillot said.
吉约特表示:“当初讨论金穹系统时,我以为它的一些设计能力会要到2040年才能实现,但事实并非如此——它更接近现实,许多功能早已具备。”
