空中巴士(Airbus)已在雅加達哈林空軍基地(Halim AFB)向印尼空軍交付首架 A400M 運輸機,使印尼成為第10個採用國。該型機最大載重約 37 噸,並能在短場、不平整跑道執行起降;搭配可快速改裝的 2 萬公升滅火套件,A400M 不僅將強化印尼的戰術與戰略空運能量,也為廣大島鏈與野火頻發的救災任務提供顯著火力支援。第二架機預定 2026 年交付,空巴同時將提供機組員訓練與後勤維保支援,確保新裝備順利投入操作。
Airbus has delivered the first A400M to the Indonesian Air Force at Halim AFB, making Indonesia the 10th user. With a 37-ton payload capacity and short-field capability, plus a rapid-fit 20,000-liter firefighting kit, the A400M will materially enhance Indonesia’s strategic lift and disaster response across its archipelago. A second aircraft is slated for 2026, with crew training and sustainment support included.
印尼接收與後續交機安排
印尼在 2021 年訂購 2 架 A400M;首架已於哈林空軍基地交付,第二架預計在 2026 年 抵台(交機)。空巴同時承諾提供包含機組訓練、後勤維修與備件支援在內的完整導入方案,協助印尼建立操作與維保能量。
Indonesia ordered two A400Ms in 2021; the first has been delivered to Halim AFB and the second is scheduled for 2026. Airbus will provide crew training, logistics and sustainment support to ensure operational readiness.
A400M 的運輸與短場能力
A400M 擁有約 37 噸 最大載貨能力,可運載車輛、直升機或大量救援物資;在載 30 噸 時,報告之戰術航程約 2,400 海里(約 4,445 公里),足以從雅加達覆蓋印尼多數地區。該機亦具備短場起降性能,能在不平整或簡易跑道執行起降,適合島嶼國家複雜地形需求。
The A400M carries up to ~37 tonnes — enough for vehicles, helicopters or heavy relief loads. With ~30 tonnes onboard it can fly some 2,400 nm (~4,445 km), enabling reach across much of Indonesia from Jakarta. Its short-field capability suits austere island runways.
滅火套件:快速轉換為消防機
空巴與印尼國防部簽署備忘,將為 A400M 整合可快速裝拆的 滅火套件,單機能攜帶 20,000 公升 的滅火劑或水,短時間將運輸機改裝為空中消防平臺,對於印尼幅員廣大且野火頻繁的情況,具高度實用價值。
Airbus and Indonesia’s Defense Ministry signed an MoU to field a rapid-fit firefighting kit enabling the A400M to carry 20,000 liters of retardant or water — converting the transport into an aerial firefighter for wildfire-prone, vast archipelagic terrain.
多任務應用:從救援到加油
除了救災任務,A400M 可執行人員運輸、醫療後送、戰術運兵、貨運投送,並可改裝成空中加油機或裝載特定任務模組,提供彈性化的軍民雙用能力。對印尼而言,A400M 能補強國家在災害應變、遠洋投送與區域支援的空運短板。
Beyond firefighting, the A400M supports troop transport, medevac, tactical airdrop and can be modified for aerial refueling or mission kits — providing dual-use flexibility for Indonesia’s disaster response and expeditionary needs.
戰略與區域意義
對印尼而言,A400M 的加入不僅是戰術運輸能力提升,也是國家救災與人道援助的戰略資產。對區域安全來說,更多擁有遠距投送能力的國家意味著在印太人道救援、聯合演訓與危機應對上,能展現更高的自主調度與互助能量。
Strategically, the A400M is both a tactical airlifter and a national disaster asset. Regionally, increased strategic lift across Indo-Pacific partners enhances humanitarian response, combined training and crisis response interoperability.
結語
A400M 對印尼的吸引點在於「重載+遠程+短場」三合一特性,特別適合島鏈國家操作模式。隨著第二架機在 2026 年到位,以及訓維體系成熟,印尼的空運投射與救災反應將有明顯改善;同時,其他印太國家應關注此類機型在多地形、多任務下的運用經驗,以利未來跨國協作與戰術交流。
The A400M’s mix of heavy lift, reach and short-field capability makes it well-suited for archipelagic Indonesia. With the second airframe and mature sustainment, Jakarta’s lift and disaster response will materially improve — a development other Indo-Pacific states should monitor for interoperability and mutual assistance lessons.
