Warship advances at high speed, J-16 immediately "transitions to combat"! Real response footage from the South China Sea frontline released.

August 1

Southern Theater Command of the People's Liberation Army

Organized joint maritime and air exercises in the territorial waters, airspace, and surrounding sea and air areas of Huangyan Island

To safeguard the "ancestral sea"

A group of people trained in joint thinking

Fighting at the grassroots level

Pushing joint operations deeper and more practically

First joint maritime and air training

Encountered numerous issues due to details

"Report to the captain, the higher-ups have informed

There is an unidentified surface target 120 nautical miles in our southeastern sea area

You are ordered to immediately proceed at high speed

To verify"

"Report to the commander

Enemy activity has been detected in the southeastern air and sea area

In accordance with higher orders

Our unit will immediately engage with the J-16 fighter jets

To handle the situation"

"We are navigating in the South China Sea

When encountering sudden situations

Sometimes relying solely on naval vessels

It is difficult to seize the best response window"

"We are patrolling the airspace over the South China Sea

As the fastest 'eyes' and 'fists' to reach the mission area

However, the time that fighter jets can stay airborne is limited

Long-term monitoring and handling

Requires more cooperation from our naval comrades"

Only through joint efforts can we safeguard the "ancestral sea"

However, the initial tactical-level joint training

Had as many issues as "sand" at the planning stage

According to Xiao Feng from a naval unit in the Southern Theater Command:

"Our navy usually makes plans in documents

But the air force provides a diagram

The air force has its own language

And we in the navy have our own language

They are not on the same system"

When it comes to practical operations at sea

The navy is accustomed to observing the situation

While the air force, due to its high speed in the air

Is used to listening to tasks

According to Fu Zhenyu from an air force aviation unit in the Southern Theater Command:

"The navy navigates on the sea

While we fly in the sky

One is on a plane, the other is in space

The perspectives of both sides are different

The command logic and thinking methods are also quite different"

During the first joint training

Everyone encountered numerous issues due to these details

Adapting to the situation, coupling training and combat

Joint maritime and air operations achieve 1+1>2

In recent years

The navy and air force have been researching and establishing joint mechanisms

Strengthening joint training

Enriching joint tactics

And cooperation has become increasingly tacit

"Report to the captain

A batch of two J-16 aircraft has entered the network

Command authority has been transferred to our ship"

"Direct the 'enemy' aircraft to the J-16 aircraft

To guide them in coordinated combat"

"Report to the captain

The radar is experiencing 'enemy' interference, tracking is unstable"

"The air guide calls for the J-16D aircraft

To counter the interference"

Xiao Feng from a naval unit in the Southern Theater Command said:

"Now, tactical-level joint training

Adapting to the situation, coupling training and combat

A ship at sea is no longer just a ship

But an intelligence terminal, communication relay, and fire support

In the joint combat system"

Fu Zhenyu from an air force aviation unit in the Southern Theater Command said:

"Flying over the sea is vast and boundless

Like riding alone for a thousand miles

But now every warship

Is a pivot for us

We can contact our naval comrades at any time

Giving us more confidence"

"The target has been driven away!"

Looking at the Southern Theater Command's maritime and air forces

In the territorial waters, airspace, and surrounding areas of Huangyan Island

Regular combat readiness patrols on site↓

Integration of ships and aircraft, joint defense of sea and air

"The deeper joint operations go

The stronger our winning capability becomes!"
