由于变式差异和过时的系统,美国和欧洲盟国与喷气式战斗机面临重大的互操作性问题,妨碍联合行动。 U.S. and European allies face major interoperability issues with fighter jets due to variant differences and outdated systems, hindering joint operations.

美国和欧洲国家使用类似F-35和F-16型喷气式喷气式战斗机,但由于变式差异、不兼容的支助设备以及不一致的维修程序,它们面临着重大的互操作性挑战。 The U.S. and European nations operate similar fighter jets like the F-35 and F-16, but face major interoperability challenges due to variant differences, incompatible support equipment, and inconsistent maintenance procedures. Rand Corporation 2025年9月的一份报告发现,发动机、控制和氧气系统以及一些仍在使用苏维埃时代飞机的盟国在联合维修方面的变异。 A September 2025 Rand Corporation report finds that variations in engines, controls, and oxygen systems—along with some allies still using Soviet-era aircraft—hinder joint maintenance. 尽管存在交叉服务,但由于数据分享有限、安全限制和盟军之间沟通不畅,美国 " 战斗就业 " 的目标受到阻碍。 Despite existing cross-servicing, U.S. Agile Combat Employment goals are hampered by limited data sharing, security restrictions, and poor communication among allied forces. Rand建议设立专门的互操作性单位,以改善整个联盟之间的协调和准备状态。 Rand recommends creating dedicated interoperability units to improve coordination and readiness across the alliance.
