俄用五种方式可以帮助中国军队变得更致命

俄罗斯在重型轰炸机方面经验丰富，中国正在研究几个超过现有空军配置的改良版本。如tu-95熊（和其海上变体TU-142）、tu-22M逆火、Tu-160海盗旗。这些都是老款版本，但中国的研究近期还是取得了些成绩。

　　Indeed, as the Soviets expected their strategic bomber force to operate againstNATO naval forces, the Russian experience with bombers comports nicely withChinese needs. Soviet bombers provided a critical threat to U.S. carrier battlegroups during the Cold War, and would fit snugly within China’s anti-accesssystem of systems.

　　事实上，苏联曾期望用他们的重型战机制约北约海军，这正是中国需要从俄罗斯得到的经验。冷战期间，前苏联的重型战机曾给美国航母战斗群带来极大威胁，而这将给中国的反制约系统带来极大的参考价值。

　　Analysts have periodically raised the idea of a potential sale of Tu-22Backfire bombers from Russia to China, but no deal has ever come tofruition.  The resistance appears to have come from the Russian side,out of concern about potential knowledge leakage and excessive growth ofChinese airpower. Indeed, Tu-22Ms would give China an additional long-rangestrike potential against U.S. bases and warships in the Pacific.

　　分析师提出一种潜在的可能性，俄罗斯的TU-22逆火战机不是通过交易渠道进入中国的。就阻力而言，俄方担心技术泄露并且会提高中方空军力量。确实，TU-22Ms会增强中国对美国太平洋基地和战舰的远程打击力量。
Whether Russia decided to export Tu-22Ms directly to China, to license theirproduction, or simply to provide technical assistance with China’s new bomberprojects, collaboration could produce a much more lethal PLAAF.

　　不论俄罗斯是决定将tu-22ms直接向中国出口，并许可其生产，还是只给中国新轰炸机项目提供技术援助，这种合作都可能产生一个更致命的空军力量。
