Video: Direct Coverage of Plateau Troops' Live-Fire Weapons Assessment

Recently, a certain army unit stationed at an altitude of over 4,000 meters in the snowy plateau organized live-fire shooting assessments with various weapons under real combat scenarios, comprehensively testing the soldiers' ability to carry out missions in harsh environments at high altitudes and unfamiliar terrains.

Upon receiving orders from higher authorities, the soldiers quickly boarded vehicles and maneuvered to the target area. The shooting assessment was conducted using a random grouping method, requiring the soldiers to overcome adverse effects such as increased heart rate, heavy breathing, and difficulty in aiming due to the cold and oxygen-deficient environment, while also quickly and calmly observing targets and adjusting their shots after tactical movements.

During the dagger rifle shooting assessment, soldiers needed to quickly complete a series of actions such as aiming and firing, while also maintaining the ability to shoot accurately amidst rapid adjustments. To emphasize the demands of mountain warfare, shooting with automatic rifles was conducted from various positions and angles.

The soldiers utilized the terrain to shoot at targets from standing, kneeling, and prone positions. The harsh plateau environment and low air pressure caused deviations in the ballistic trajectory, significantly increasing the difficulty of shooting for the soldiers.

Army Unit Member Feng Xingfan: In the past, shooting from a single position was relatively easy, but this time, the continuous shooting from multiple positions in the plateau environment was quite a challenge for me. As a border defense soldier, I must adapt to the plateau more quickly and strive to achieve better results in the next live-fire exercise.

At another site, the sniper team conducted assessments with a 35mm sniper grenade launcher and multi-caliber sniper rifles. During the shooting process, the participating shooters needed to comprehensively assess the impact of high-altitude conditions on shooting accuracy, adjusting shooting parameters continuously to ultimately hit the target.

Army Unit Member Feng Liye: This live-fire shooting assessment with multiple weapons included unexpected situations that could occur in real combat scenarios, combined with the impact of the plateau environment on weapon performance, significantly increased the difficulty of the assessment, fully stimulating the soldiers' adaptability and continuously enhancing their combat skills and practical awareness in high-altitude environments.
