Recently, a certain regiment of the Southern Theater Command Naval Aviation conducted multiple sorties of anti-submarine patrol aircraft

without a script throughout the entire process, with on-the-spot adjustments

focusing on instrument flight, sonar buoy array deployment, and simulated anti-submarine

underwater target search and identification, among other subjects for enhanced training.

During the daytime training phase,

the pilots relied on onboard navigation and instrument data

to accurately correct the aircraft's attitude.

The crew members closely coordinated

to quickly establish zoned search positions for anti-submarine operations

and implemented multi-dimensional net-style inspections in the designated sea area.

As night fell,

the participating crews overcame adverse factors such as a lack of visual references

and difficulties in spatial orientation,

successfully completing low-visibility operations,

rapid takeoffs and landings, anti-submarine warfare, and patrol anti-submarine tasks,

while also integrating onboard equipment alarms

and responding to low-altitude turbulence interference and other emergencies.

This comprehensively tested the crew's emergency response and combat capabilities at all times,

further solidifying the foundation for the troops' all-weather anti-submarine operations.
