摘要

近年来，学者们一直在努力研究核常规纠缠的风险和条件。学术文献中讨论的纠缠的一个例子是美国的核指挥和控制卫星，这些卫星在历史上既用于核任务，也用于常规任务。从2017年到2019年，美国空军做出了一系列计划决定，至少在一定程度上扭转了这种纠缠，将核航天器与非核航天器分开。这种对外太空核常规纠缠的逆转带来了战略后果，但与其说是美国领导层做出的战略选择，不如说是采购改革和官僚动力的结果。

Reversal of nuclear-conventional entanglement in outer space

In recent years, scholars have grappled with the risks and conditions of nuclear-conventional entanglement. One of the examples of entanglement discussed in the academic literature is U.S. nuclear command and control satellites, which have historically served both nuclear and conventional missions. From 2017 to 2019, the U.S. Air Force made a series of programmatic decisions that would, at least in part, reverse this entanglement, separating nuclear from non-nuclear spacecraft. This reversal of nuclear-conventional entanglement in outer space poses strategic consequences, but it was less a strategic choice made by U.S. leadership than the result of acquisition reforms and bureaucratic dynamics.

期刊介绍： The defining feature of The Journal of Strategic Studies is its commitment to multi-disciplinary approach. The editors welcome articles that challenge our historical understanding of man"s efforts to achieve political ends through the application of military and diplomatic means; articles on contemporary security and theoretical controversies of enduring value; and of course articles that explicitly combine the historical and theoretical approaches to the study of modern warfare, defence policy and modern strategy. In addition to a well-established review section, The Journal of Strategic Studies offers its diverse readership a wide range of "special issues" and "special sections".
