摘要

In the opening days of a future war against China, an F-35 pilot on a mission is tracked and shot down by air defenses. He safely ejects - but is trapped deep inside enemy territory. Standing between him and his comrades: A bristling array of surface-to-air missiles, radars, enemy fighters and other defenses. If the U.S. Air Force sends a traditional combat search-and-rescue helicopter into that highly contested airspace, the chances are high it gets shot down, leaving the service with several more pilots and pararescuemen in need of their own rescuing. Instead, the Air Force tries something new. It sends an autonomous drone - a self-piloting air taxi - whose smaller electric propellers let it operate much more quietly than a helicopter with massive rotors. If the drone is spotted and shot down, the Air Force hasn't lost another airman and can try again with another drone to save the pilot. His rescue is still far from certain. But at least he's got a chance. This is one way search-and-rescue operations could play out in the years to come, as the Air Force tries to figure out how it will fight its next major war. As the service shifts from the last 20 years of fighting in the Middle East toward a potential conflict against China or Russia and their modern militaries, it needs to change how its rescues downed pilots and other personnel to account for the far more complex threat environments they'd face. CSAR airmen in the next war will likely have to navigate a contested airspace with enemy surface-to-air missiles, radar and hostile aircraft. The missions could come days - perhaps even weeks - after the crash, as the rescuers wait for an opportunity to go in. And there could be much more rescuing of downed pilots from the open sea.
