跟进:国家航空航天博物馆获通用原子100万美元捐赠,「现代军事航空」展厅11月11日开放

史密森尼国家航空航天博物馆(Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum)11月12日宣布,收到通用原子公司(General Atomics)100万美元捐赠,用于支持11月11日在该馆华盛顿主馆开放的新展厅「现代军事航空」。

该展厅是博物馆历时十年的整体改造中最后开放的一座展厅,讲述航空如何从冷战初期至今重新塑造军事力量、地缘政治与技术发展。博物馆航空学策展人 Michael Hankins 表示,感谢通用原子的慷慨捐赠,这类主导性支持让博物馆得以用真实文物讲述飞行员、创新者与决策者的故事。

展厅以博物馆二战后至今的军用航空藏品为核心,重点展品包括 North American F-86F「佩刀」战斗机、Bell UH-1H「休伊」直升机与通用原子 MQ-1L「掠夺者」无人机。馆方介绍,展出的这架「掠夺者」是2001年9月11日之后最早赴阿富汗执行任务的三架无人机之一,也是第一架在实战中发射「地狱火」导弹的无人机;展厅内还设有掠夺者地面控制站与环绕展厅的影像带。

此前报道,「现代军事航空」展厅已于11月11日对公众开放,展出150余件二战后文物。国家航空航天博物馆位于华盛顿 Independence Avenue 与 Sixth Street S.W. 交界处,除12月25日外每天上午10点至下午5点半开放,免费参观,但需预约定时入场票。

Follow-Up: National Air and Space Museum Receives $1 Million General Atomics Gift as 'Modern Military Aviation' Gallery Opens

The Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum announced on November 12 that it has received a $1 million donation from General Atomics to support 'Modern Military Aviation,' the new exhibition that opened on November 11 in the museum's building in Washington, D.C.

The exhibition is the final gallery to open as part of the museum's decade-long renovation, and it explores how aviation has redefined military power, geopolitics and technological development from the outset of the Cold War to the present. 'We are grateful to General Atomics for this generous gift to support the new Modern Military Aviation exhibition,' said Michael Hankins, aeronautics curator at the museum, adding that leadership support enables the museum to leverage authentic artifact displays and tell the stories of aviators, innovators and policymakers.

The gallery is anchored by the museum's collection of military aviation artifacts from just after World War II to the present day, including the North American F-86F Sabre, the Bell UH-1H 'Huey' helicopter and the General Atomics MQ-1L Predator drone. According to the museum, the Predator on display was one of the first three unmanned aerial vehicles to fly operational missions over Afghanistan after September 11, 2001, and the first UAV to fire Hellfire missiles in combat. The gallery also includes a Predator ground control station and a media band encircling the space.

As previously reported, the gallery opened to the public on November 11 with more than 150 postwar artifacts. The National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C., is located at Independence Avenue and Sixth Street S.W., is open every day except December 25 from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and admission is free, though timed-entry passes are required.
