Foreign media: US F-22 withdraws from Super Bowl performance due to "combat mission"
参考消息网2月9日报道 据英国《独立报》网站2月7日报道，美国空军6日宣布，原定参加第60届美国职业橄榄球大联盟（NFL）“超级碗”总决赛低空通场环节的两架F-22“猛禽”隐形战斗机由于“作战任务”而退出。
帮助组织空军体育外联项目并协调低空通场编队的凯蒂·斯潘塞说，在最初的概念中，F-22战斗机将参与“超级碗”表演，但随着作战需求的增加，它们已被重新指派任务。
斯潘塞6日接受美国《军队时报》记者采访时说：“我们（在低空通场中）曾想要引入空军的第五代战斗机和海军的第五代战斗机。但随着军方情况的变化，作战节奏加快了，因此F-22战斗机退出了该环节，要去执行一些作战任务。”
斯潘塞拒绝详细说明具体是什么任务要求F-22战斗机被重新指派，但该型战机最近参与了几次引人注目的行动。2025年6月，F-22战斗机在“午夜之锤”行动中发挥了关键作用，这是一场由B-2“幽灵”轰炸机主导的打击伊朗核设施的军事行动。
报道称，F-22战斗机利用先进的传感器和隐身能力，负责监控潜在威胁，并将实时情报反馈给打击编队。（编译/胡雪）
