in early autumn, tanks roared at a field training ground of a brigade of the 74th group army, and a live-fire shooting exercise was underway by a tank squad.
different from previous times, this live-fire shooting not only requires the crew to quickly pass through various complex obstacles, but also to carry out fire strikes on "enemy" targets randomly set up during the maneuver.
"forward!" with the commander's order, a tank roared and rushed towards the obstacle section. the driver li yangtao controlled the direction and speed steadily, not daring to be careless.
"there is a ditch ahead, slow down and pass through it!" the vehicle commander fan jiang paid close attention to the situation outside the vehicle and issued instructions to the gunner and driver in real time.
"attention everyone, an 'enemy' tank has been spotted in the front right!" tests followed one after another. fan jiang directed li yangtao to adjust the steering of the vehicle. gunner zhou jianhong fixed his eyes on the sighting mirror and quickly turned the gun barrel with both hands, and soon found the target.
loading, aiming, locking... the tank rushed forward at a high speed, the shells whizzed out of the barrel, and the "enemy" tank was hit accurately.
"during this live-fire shooting, the driver maneuvered to avoid obstacles, the commander observed and commanded, and the gunner aimed and fired. none of them could be missing." zhou jianhong told reporters after getting off the tank that in previous training, most of the tests were on the skill level of individual tank crew members, such as the driver's driving ability and the gunner's shooting accuracy. after improving the training model, strengthening the coordination and cooperation among the crew members became the top priority.
"only by firmly establishing a sense of coordination and organically integrating various elements can we clench our fingers into a fist and deliver a winning blow." fan jiang said with deep understanding. since the beginning of this year, he has clearly felt that all levels are actively finding practical ways to implement the new outline, innovating and improving training models, and improving the quality and effectiveness of training. take the setting of the shooting range as an example. in the past, the route of the tank was a flat runway, but now it is full of obstacles and rugged. this is an effective exercise for the crew to improve their battlefield emergency response capabilities and collaborative combat capabilities.
the brigade took advantage of the opportunity of field training to carefully formulate a live-fire shooting training plan, set up actual combat scenes such as s-shaped restricted roads, craters, and rut bridges according to the training outline, configured multiple types of shooting targets such as mobile targets, fixed targets, and visible and invisible targets that meet tactical requirements, and introduced various "enemy situations" through ad hoc guidance. at the same time, extensive rotation training was carried out, and the commander, gunner, and driver were "specialized in multiple areas" and cooperated more tacitly.
"the whole process was very fast-paced, and it felt like a war!" the reporter turned to another crew for an interview. he jiangtao, a driver who had just finished the on-the-move shooting training, was sweating profusely. he told the reporter that before this, the evaluation of the shooting level of the tank crew mainly depended on the accuracy of the gunner's shooting, and the role of the driver and the commander in the training was not obvious. this time, he had to control the speed, adjust the direction of the vehicle, judge the distance to the target, and ensure that the tank maneuvered to the best shooting position within a limited time. the days of "stepping on the accelerator to the bottom" are gone forever.
the commander han jian was not relaxed either. not long after driving to the firing area, the gunner yuan dongsen sent an urgent report: "the computer system has a malfunction and cannot aim and fire normally..." the sudden situation made han jian break out in a cold sweat. he knew that if he handled it improperly or took too much time, the "enemy" target would "escape"!
the commander is the brain of the crew. han jian carefully considered the situation and gave a solution: "switch to manual loading and firing!" after receiving the order, the driver and gunner performed their duties and operated skillfully. a flash of fire passed by, and the target a thousand meters away exploded.
the reporter noticed that after the shooting, the assessment team did not sit idle, but evaluated the target damage effect based on various data, distinguished the assessment results of the crew and individuals to establish training files, and put forward targeted improvement suggestions for the next step of training.
in this brigade, training coordination and cooperation is not only the norm for tank units, but also the focus of other professional training. the reporter saw at the training ground that during the command post training, the engineers, communications, and reactors worked together closely and quickly formed a "command network"; during the live-fire shooting drill, bomb disposal, emergency repair, and first aid were carried out together and implemented in a coherent manner...
it is understood that the brigade will expand cross-shifting and mutual training, make full use of the field environment, set up dangerous conditions, carry out battalion and company tactical training and command post exercises, promote deeper integration and interconnection of various combat elements, and make coordination and cooperation closer, so as to continuously improve the officers and soldiers' combat skills.
