High Temperature Waves, Accurate Fire! Watch Amphibious Vehicles in Sea Combat Shooting!

In the midsummer season
A heat wave hits a certain sea area in the southeast
On the vast sea surface
Waves surge and cannon fire roars
The armored unit of a certain brigade of the 73rd Group Army
Conducts maritime combat shooting assessments as scheduled
Officers and soldiers face high temperatures and humidity
In complex sea conditions with strong winds and rough waves
Completing maritime navigation
Covert maneuvers, live-fire shooting, and other tasks
Honing the crew's collaborative combat
And precise strike capabilities

"Enter the water and execute!"
With the command issued
The armored vehicle departs from the shore
Breaking through the waves towards the designated sea area

The waves continuously strike the vehicle
The vehicle rocks and bumps violently
The cabin is hot and stuffy
Splashes of water
Occasionally blur the targeting view
Multiple adverse factors combined
Greatly increased
The operational difficulty of maritime shooting

Locking onto the target
Calculating distance, loading, and firing
……
After entering the shooting area
The crew inside the vehicle
Quickly divides tasks and coordinates seamlessly
The entire set of actions
Is compact, coherent, and executed in one go


For the scattered
Near and far strike targets
The gunner flexibly adjusts the shooting angle
Using lateral, forward, and other postures
Alternately conducting fire strikes
For a time
The sea surface is filled with roaring cannon fire and rising smoke

"Smoke screen cover, execute!"
During the assessment
The assessment team sets up a special situation
The armored vehicle immediately releases smoke grenades
Creating a concealed area
Using the smoke cover
Quickly changes the movement route
Continuously suppressing remaining targets


This maritime combat shooting assessment
Strictly aligns with the outline standards
Embedding complex sea conditions and sudden enemy situations throughout
Focusing on honing the armored unit's
Stable aiming at sea
And rapid fire output skills
Testing equipment
And the practical effectiveness of maritime firepower
Honing the troops' comprehensive combat capabilities to respond to complex environments
Laying a solid foundation
For carrying out diversified tasks
