Creating a Realistic Battlefield Environment: Eastern Theater Air Force Conducts High-Intensity Training with Real Combat Elements
Recently
the Eastern Theater Command Air Force Aviation Unit
has been closely aligned with real combat requirements
and has continuously organized multiple training subjects
to comprehensively hone the combat capabilities of pilots
△ Pilots taking off in succession.
“'Enemy' tracking!”
As soon as they arrived in the target airspace
an alarm sounded in the cockpit
which heightened the tension of the pilots in both cockpits
△ Pilots performing tactical maneuvers in the aircraft.
The pilots made slight adjustments
based on changes in instrument data
quickly calculating and analyzing
to find the opportunity to lock on
“Maneuver!”
Suddenly, the “enemy” aircraft attempted
to launch a strong attack against us again
the front and rear cockpits coordinated closely to respond
the alarm ceased, and the threat was temporarily lifted
Immediately after
the pilots adopted a feint tactic to lure the “enemy”
the opponent fell for it
they seized the attack window to launch a strike
successfully achieving the first round victory
△ Returning after aerial confrontation.
Only by creating realistic scenarios
can we better identify and address shortcomings
This training emphasized realism and confrontation
establishing a realistic battlefield environment
allowing pilots to test their capabilities in genuine practice
constantly breaking through the bottlenecks that restrict combat effectiveness
ensuring that the training has a high “combat content” and strong “feasibility”
△ Aircraft taxiing back to the hangar for hot refueling and support.
To minimize the time for the aircraft to be deployed again
after landing
the support personnel quickly rushed to their positions
efficiently carrying out “hot loading” and “hot refueling” tasks
to prepare the aircraft for another mission
Meanwhile
the pilots reviewed flight data and videos
to optimize tactical approaches
Before long, the red and blue teams switched roles
and took to the skies again
to initiate a new round of confrontation
△ Aircraft returning in sequence after completing training.
