In the air, war eagles hovered to deliver ammunition accurately; on the ground, chariots galloped across the line of fire to repair equipment... In the cold winter, an actual combat equipment support exercise for a brigade of the 79th Group Army kicked off.
The drill site was filled with gunpowder smoke, and a variety of security forces appeared.
"A group of advance reports, unidentified helicopters appeared in the air!" At the beginning of the exercise, the stealth and maneuvering forward attack unit was suddenly attacked by the "enemy" air-ground fire, and many equipments were damaged.
The commander quickly dispatched the equipment rescue team, technical room and other support modules, and organized a rescue team to go out for emergency repairs.
"Accurately grasping the battlefield situation and shortening the support response period are the focus of our training." The brigade leader introduced that the comprehensive use of multiple means is a major feature of this exercise.
The reporter saw at the drill site that when officers and soldiers carried out emergency repairs to a heavy vehicle, the command post used the information system operation platform to control support actions in real time with the battle process; front-line support officers and soldiers used radio, Beidou handhelds and other means of communication to report equipment.” "Battle damage" situation, quickly start repair work...
"Please send ammunition forward!" The exercise has entered a white-hot stage, and some types of ammunition in the red side are in short supply.
Due to the urgency of the support task and the long transportation distance, Song Yingbin, the commander of the support team, decided to request the superior to send the ammunition by air delivery by helicopter.
The air transport unit that receives the support request immediately adopts a combination of in-vehicle loading and extra-vehicle mounting to send supplies forward.
The ground receiving team quickly demarcated the delivery area of ammunition, set up guidance signs, organized ammunition reception and loading and transportation, and quickly sent supplementary ammunition to the front line.
Liu Guoqing, the battalion commander of the fourth battalion who completed the ammunition delivery task, told reporters that the use of the three-dimensional air-to-ground delivery method has effectively alleviated the problem of ammunition support for the front-line combat units.

"The fast and efficient accompanying support has significantly improved the efficiency of battlefield equipment support." Yang Cunqiao, chief of the equipment maintenance section of the brigade, introduced that in this exercise, in addition to organizing armored, army aviation and other forces to carry out emergency repair of battle-damaged equipment and ammunition support In addition to other subject drills, they also extended the battlefield support information link to the end, forming the ability to independently complete information aggregation and equipment support to assist decision-making, effectively improving support efficiency.
It is reported that in the multi-day drills, the brigade carried out special researches on subjects such as emergency repair of war-damaged equipment and urgently needed ammunition support, and integrated combat protection planning operations, multi-level repair force connection and interaction, and three-dimensional delivery of ammunition to the ground and other guarantees. The method has been tested, and the military's battlefield equipment support capabilities have been further improved.
