诺斯罗普·格鲁曼公司（Northrop Grumman）和美国空军（U.S.Air Force）最近签署了业界第一份数据权利协议，开放了B-21数据访问和整个项目的合作，包括为B-21数字孪生兄弟推出共享环境。
Northrop Grumman and the U.S. Air Force signed an industry-first data rights agreement recently, opening B-21 data access and collaboration across the program, including the launch of a shared environment for the B-21 digital twin.
该协议确立了对通用数据和数据环境的访问级别，这些数据和环境在如此规模或生命周期早期的项目中尚未实现。它在诺斯罗普·格鲁曼公司和空军之间创造了更大的透明度和协作，有助于在整个项目生命周期内提供更高的可负担性和快速升级性。诺斯罗普·格鲁曼公司高度重视将数字工程进一步推进B-21企业。
The agreement establishes a level of access to common data and data environments that had not yet been accomplished on a program of this scale or this early in the lifecycle. It creates greater transparency and collaboration between Northrop Grumman and the Air Force, helping to deliver greater affordability and rapid upgradability throughout the program lifecycle. Northrop Grumman has placed a high priority on driving digital engineering further into the B-21 enterprise.
今年早些时候，诺斯罗普·格鲁曼公司和空军成功地演示了B-21地面系统数据向云环境的迁移。该演示包括开发、部署和测试一套B-21数据，包括B-21数字孪生飞机，以支持B-21作战和维持。这次成功的测试证明，地面系统在主要作战基地和部署包中的占地面积可以显著减少。这种方法将在作战和维持方面提高可负担性和战备优势。
Also earlier this year, Northrop Grumman and the Air Force successfully demonstrated the migration of B-21 ground systems data to a cloud environment. This demonstration included the development, deployment and test of a suite of B-21 data, including the B-21 digital twin, that will support B-21 operations and sustainment. This successful test proved the ground systems footprint can be significantly reduced at main operating bases and in deployment packages. This approach will drive affordability and readiness advantages in operations and sustainment.
B-21项目在数据访问和数据管理方面取得的成就是诺斯罗普·格鲁曼公司用来帮助公司其他项目的最佳实践。
The B-21 program’s achievements in data access and data management are best practices Northrop Grumman is using to benefit other programs across the company.
诺斯罗普·格鲁曼航空系统公司部门副总裁兼总经理道格·杨表示：“B-21突袭机是一款真正的数字原生机，这项数据权利协议加上基于云的数字孪生，使我们能够在EMD阶段降低风险，将实现快速的能力升级，并降低整个项目的维持成本。”。
“The B-21 Raider is a true digital native, and this data rights agreement coupled with the cloud based digital twin allow us to drive down risk in the EMD phase, will enable rapid capability upgrades and lowers sustainment cost over the life of the program,” said Doug Young, sector vice president and general manager, Northrop Grumman Aeronautics Systems.
随着B-21继续其地面测试阶段，该团队将为飞机通电，测试其子系统，并涂覆涂层和油漆。接下来的步骤将包括进行发动机运转以及低速和高速滑行测试，然后进行首次飞行。
As the B-21 continues its ground test phase, the team will power up the aircraft, test its subsystems, and apply coatings and paint. The next steps will include carrying out engine runs as well as low-speed and high-speed taxi tests, and then on to first flight.
诺斯罗普·格鲁曼公司投资了一个强大的生产计划——这是国防战略的基础——以对空军应对不断演变的威胁产生实际影响的速度交付B-21。数字工程和商用现成数字工具的创新应用继续在制造过程中提供高度的精度和效率，随着B-21测试飞机沿着实际生产线移动，生产风险每天都在降低。
Northrop Grumman has invested in a robust production program — one that is foundational to the National Defense Strategy — to deliver the B-21 at a rate that will have a real effect for the Air Force in meeting evolving threats. Innovative application of digital engineering and commercial off-the-shelf digital tools continue to deliver an advanced degree of precision and efficiency in the build process, with production risk reduction progressing every day as B-21 test aircraft move down the actual production line.
2022年9月20日，诺斯罗普·格鲁曼公司宣布，将于12月的第一周在该公司位于加利福尼亚州帕尔姆代尔的工厂与空军合作推出B-21突袭机。据空军报道，2023年的首次飞行预测与该公司2022年盈利电话会议期间传达的信息一致，并按照政府采购计划基线的时间表进行。
On September 20, 2022, Northrop Grumman announced it will unveil the B-21 Raider during the first week of December at the company’s Palmdale, California facility, in partnership with the Air Force. The first flight projection of 2023, as has been reported by the Air Force, is aligned with the information communicated during the company's 2022 earnings calls and remains on-schedule to the government Acquisition Program Baseline.
正如空军所指出的，重点是生产代表性飞机的安全首飞。诺斯罗普·格鲁曼公司拥有六架处于不同生产和测试阶段的飞机，正朝着这一目标前进，因为它继续降低风险，完善建造流程，并在首次飞行前使测试机队成熟。
As the Air Force has indicated, the focus is on a safe first flight of a production representative aircraft. With six aircraft in various stages of production and test, Northrop Grumman is progressing toward that objective as it continues to reduce risk, refine the building process, and mature the test fleet ahead of first flight.
