1999年10月31日,埃及航空公司的990航班在纽约附近海面坠毁,美国海军立刻派遣3艘舰船前往救援,为打捞黑匣子又增派了2艘军舰。这次救援行动中的船只、设备都是美国海军、军事海运司令部和海军海上救援机构的。虽然它们大多是非战斗舰艇,但在美国海军军舰(特别是潜艇)发生事故时,却具有举足轻重的作用。在此,本刊简单地为读者朋友们介绍一下这些船只和设备。 On October 31, 1999, Egyptian Airlines Flight 990 crashed off the surface of New York near the sea. The U.S. Navy immediately dispatched three ships to rescue and another two warships to salvage the black box. The rescue operations in the vessels, equipment are the US Navy, the Military Maritime Command and the Naval Maritime rescue agencies. Although most of them are non-combatant ships, they play a decisive role in the accident of U.S. naval warships, especially submarines. Here, we simply introduce these readers and friends to these vessels and equipment.
