Tear Open the Shoreline Defense! Departing at Dawn, Combat Power Accelerates Generation

Amphibious Armored Units

are the "Dragon" at sea

that can tear through the enemy's beach defenses

and also the "Blade" that charges across land.

Today

we follow CCTV reporter Wu Jie

into the amphibious vehicle training ground

to witness how the combat effectiveness of the crew is rapidly generated.

Close to real combat!

Directly hitting multiple subject comprehensive assessments

In the early morning

vehicles rush to the firing range

the amphibious assault vehicle equipped with a 105mm main gun

can provide precise fire support

whether landing on the beach or in land combat.

The cloud explosive and penetrator rounds used

have outstanding damage effects on solid fortifications and bunkers.

As the types of ammunition become increasingly rich,

the means of combat to respond to complex battlefield environments

are becoming more diverse,

and the ability to win is also stronger.

In this assessment,

the entire process is dynamically directed, with targets randomly assigned.

A total of three different routes are set up.

The directing team explains:

"The crew does not know the targets and routes

and will only be informed when it's time to depart,

making it closer to real combat."

The vehicle first climbs over a slope

to enter the main gun firing position.

Faced with steep earthen embankment obstacles,

the crew must seize the opportunity

to complete firing before crossing the obstacles.

On the steep slope, the front of the vehicle rises significantly,

obstructing the driver's view.

Additionally, due to the structural characteristics of the amphibious assault vehicle,

this poses a great test of driving skills and spatial awareness.

Subsequently, the battle vehicle moves to the side firing position,

with the direction of travel

at a 90-degree angle to the turret weapon.

The crew needs to complete multi-target firing with the co-axial machine gun.

Immediately after, they enter the reverse firing segment,

driving the vehicle forward

while the turret turns towards the rear of the vehicle

to implement firing,

accurately hitting the target.

After completing the main gun and co-axial machine gun firing,

the battle vehicle releases smoke grenades

to interfere with the "enemy's" reconnaissance intentions,

effectively self-protecting.

The entire set of tactical actions is coherent,

aligning with real combat requirements.

Coherent comprehensive assessment

honing an all-around crew

To maximize the combat effectiveness of the amphibious assault vehicle,

the officers and soldiers must master multiple practical skills.

Coherent assessment

is precisely about integrating various essential combat skills

into a comprehensive test.

On-the-spot ammunition resupply

requires the crew to quickly load 20 rounds

of 105mm complete ammunition onto the vehicle.

This task has high intensity,

with significant physical consumption.

Daily training is arduous and strict.

The vehicle's concealment and camouflage task

is a dual test of physical strength and willpower.

The new camouflage net

can naturally blend with the terrain environment,

possessing infrared and satellite reconnaissance defense capabilities.

To fully utilize the camouflage effectiveness,

meticulous operations are required.

By setting up support poles,

the vehicle's regular outline is broken,

eliminating exposed features.

Battlefield repair and towing

simulates the battle vehicle being damaged or trapped,

where the amphibious vehicle

uses a dedicated towing rope to implement towing,

timely transporting the faulty vehicle for repairs

to quickly restore battlefield operational capability.

This focuses on testing whether the crew

can maintain a clear mind

and accurately handle emergencies

under continuous high intensity and physical exhaustion.

Reporters experience the amphibious assault vehicle

disassembling and assembling the co-axial machine gun

In assault operations,

it is necessary to flexibly switch weapons

to strike different targets.

Therefore,

the daily maintenance of weapons is crucial.

The co-axial machine gun of the amphibious assault vehicle

is a key focus of the officers and soldiers' daily maintenance.

Weapon maintenance

starts with disassembling the firing mechanism

and completing all disassembly and assembly steps in order.

This seemingly basic disassembly process

proved challenging for the reporter during practical operation.

After several attempts, it was finally completed,

while the officers and soldiers practice weapon operation and firing day after day

to accumulate solid skills

to calmly respond to various emergencies.

Practice hard skills, strategize for victory!

Always ready!
