握曹，AMRAAM射程增倍...雷神這是...

1. 雷神說他們在整合AMRAAM到CCA1了，能搭載AIM-120是空軍對increment 1基本要求 （AIM-260也會裝在CCA上，之前2023 年Kendall是說JATM有望在2023進入生產階段）

2. AMRAAM AIM-120D3雷神說相比之前所有已飛過的AIM-120型號，射程將機乎倍增，並且最重要的是-這個倍增射程會來到很接進 AIM-260項目空軍要求不可低於的最低射程指標

And while the company continues to pump out the older version, it’s also been developing a new variant, called the AIM-120D3, which will deliver more range.

Norman cited an upcoming test of the new variant on an F-35, which will “almost double” the range of what AMRAAM has flown before. The company didn’t change the propulsion on the missile, but “changed the way it flies for long-range shots,” so it has more kinetic energy when it hits the target.

He said AMRAAM and JATM are “complementary,” and that new AMRAAM developments will get the missile close to JATM’s minimum range requirement. JATM will be “a very expensive weapon, but very capable when it's fielded and fully operational. The capacity weapon, I think for the foreseeable future, is going to be AMRAAM.”

之前寫過AIM-120D3增程訊息，雷神說射程會超過PL-15

原本覺的增程是對應低機動慢速目標大概2-30%增加，對高機動目標應該增程不大，但現在倍增這個概念超乎已往預期，D3的軌道優化看起來比其AIM-120D/C8有很大不同，保留了更多動能在對付目標上

（那動力更衝沛的JATM或是雷神自研要推出的空射AMRAAM-ER航程是要有多遠，在軌道最優化下最...）
