From the change of the medals of the "Five Heroes Company of Langya Mountain" of a brigade of the Army in the Southern Theater Command, we can see the change in the concept of troop training——

  Empower technology to fight

  In the "Five Heroes Company of Langya Mountain" in a brigade of the Army in the Southern Theater Command, there is a lush "honor forest". Officers and soldiers who have won the championship in the brigade or above or have been commended by the brigade or above can plant an exclusive "gold medal tree" here. ”, and hung a gold nameplate with the results written on it.

  On this day, amid the cheers of his comrades-in-arms, Wu Wenjun, the first sergeant of the company, put a second "gold medal" on his "gold medal tree".

After being named "One Hundred Good Squad Leaders" by the Army of the Theater Command in 2018, he successfully obtained the vocational skills appraisal certificate of the Army Light Weapons Shooter Technician last year.

For Wu Wenjun, the second "gold medal" is even more meaningful, because it has witnessed the efforts of a traditional infantryman to transform into a technologically advanced soldier.

  The change began with Wu Wenjun's defeat in the brigade "Sharpshooter" competition last year.

In that competition, the brigade organization greatly improved the assessment methods to meet the actual combat requirements, added content that is closer to actual combat, including special situation handling, night shooting, etc., and emphasized the use of new equipment.

This made Wu Wenjun, who did not pay enough attention to the training of new equipment, sunk into the sand.

  Watching the "rising stars" scoring higher scores, Wu Wenjun suddenly realized that if he was still immersed in his past experience and stopped moving forward, and ignored the mastery and use of new equipment, the gap between him and them would only widen, not only If you don't get the gold medal, you will also face the danger of being eliminated.

  After the pain, "old infantry" Wu Wenjun launched a new charge: on the one hand, actively learning to use new equipment, new telescopes, observation instruments, etc. became the focus of his night training; on the other hand, with the help of laser aiming auxiliary training system, somatosensory interactive software, etc. Correct technical actions and improve professional ability.

  With the help of science and technology, in less than half a year, Wu Wenjun's professional performance has improved by leaps and bounds.

In the appraisal and assessment of the professional skills of the Army's light weapons shooter technicians, he successfully obtained the light weapons shooter technician vocational skills appraisal certificate by virtue of his solid theoretical foundation, excellent shooting performance, and first-class teaching level.

  In the "Five Heroes Company of Langya Mountain", Wu Wenjun is not alone in seeking combat power from science and technology. There are also more and more "new faces" in the "Forest of Honor": Rao Zepeng, the squad leader of the eighth class, uses the "sports AI analysis software" to generate scientific The training plan was awarded "Excellent Coach" in the military sports coaches competition in the war zone; Private Li Qianggang used the "Smart Gym" software to analyze body data, and carried out intensive training for different muscle groups. Trip Highest Score...

  "Technology +" is added to the "Honorary Forest" of the "Five Heroes Company of Langya Mountain", which is a microcosm of the brigade's transformation of training concepts and scientific and technological training.

Since the reform and adjustment, the brigade has changed from a traditional motorized infantry brigade to a new type of synthetic brigade, and the new tasks have put forward new requirements for individual soldier capabilities.

  The chief of staff of the brigade told reporters that in the past, they valued running fast, throwing far, and hitting accurately in training; but now, in addition to having the above-mentioned abilities, officers and soldiers must also be connected, communicated, commanded, and coordinated well. A multi-talented fighting talent.

  "Only by improving the scientific and technological content of training and the scientific and technological literacy of officers and soldiers can we continuously refresh the 'threshold' of combat effectiveness." Following this concept, the brigade explored and innovated training methods such as "technology +" and "network +", and established the need for training in science and technology. The clear orientation of benefits promotes the transformation and upgrading of training.

At the same time, they also renovated and expanded the simulation training room, gradually improved the application modules such as the digital parking lot and the medical information system, and promoted the supporting construction of "smart military camps" to provide scientific and technological support for the comprehensive improvement of training support capabilities.

  In this brigade, more and more new scenarios of scientific and technological training are presented in front of us: the air defense battalion uses VR glasses to simulate the actual combat environment, and controls surface-to-air missiles to smash the "enemy aircraft"; the drone model class simulates air force flight training and quickly switches flights. mode and independent selection of attack methods; the electronic countermeasures company optimizes the communication countermeasures simulation system to strengthen the communication reconnaissance, interference and interception capabilities in complex battlefield environments; the information security team builds a simulation machine and "moves" check-in training out of the main computer room to achieve multiple Road calls are forwarded at the same time...

  "The hero's company trains heroic soldiers." The lush "Forest of Honor" in the "Five Heroes Company of Langya Mountain" of a brigade of the Army in the Southern Theater Command condenses the history of this heroic company's pursuit of victory and victory; Hui's "Gold Medal" records the moments of hard work and blood and sweat of the officers and soldiers.

Exposure to it, the comparison between the past and the present, the reporter strongly felt the surging pulse of the new era of scientific and technological training.

  How does a force with a glorious history lead to a bright future?

This company has given its own answer: insist on seeking combat effectiveness from technological innovation, and make technological training a powerful engine for improving combat effectiveness.

This inspires us to be good at introducing and using the latest scientific and technological achievements, highlighting the training of new equipment, new forces and new fields, so that science and technology can empower military training, combat capacity building, and war preparations.

Only in this way can an elite force capable of fighting and fighting be able to carry on the past and forge ahead, and always walk in the forefront of winning!
