Chapter 387? The True Meaning of Confrontation Drills

Chapter 387 The true meaning of confrontation drills

Back to the review meeting the day after the exercise.

Relevant troops and units have invested a lot of resources in preparation for this exercise for a long time. Just the stationing of the Beiku Guidance and Control Department and related exercise support units in the No. 4 combat readiness field station and its surrounding areas has consumed a lot of manpower and material resources. .

It was only half a day of confrontation, not even half a day.

The same is true for any drill. The preparation time may be more than a month, but if the actual implementation time is up to a week, it is already a large-scale drill.

Therefore, the review and analysis meeting held at the No. 4 Combat Preparation Site on the second day of the confrontation drill seemed to have enough time, which was enough for the command and control department to make sufficient preparations for the discussion.

Facing Cheng Da's question, when Li Zhan was about to explain in detail, Liang Pengfei, the director of the guidance department, spoke up - why is it Liang Pengfei again?

Director Liang cleared his throat and said, "On behalf of the command and control department, I will explain the issue of the red side."

He said, "The blue team submitted a detailed report after the exercise started. According to regulations, reports submitted after the start are invalid. It is true that the blue team violated the rules in this regard."

He changed the topic, "However, the report submitted by the blue team and what they did are very consistent with the facts. The significance of the Dongsanguai fighter is not itself, nor is it affiliated with any party. This fighter was temporarily changed to a communications center The real significance of the relay is to enable the blue side to have a complete battlefield situational awareness network."

Seeing that the people on Big Red Eagle's side were a little unable to sit still, Liang Pengfei said, "Don't worry, everyone, just listen to what I have to say. After I finish speaking, you can go back and take a good look at the report submitted by the blue side. It is very long and detailed."

He glanced at the crowd and said, "Simulating the Blue Army, simulating the Blue Army, what exactly does it mean to simulate the Blue Army? Let me ask everyone here this question, who can answer me?"

No one said anything, everyone could tell that the leader was preparing to ask and answer his own questions.

Sure enough, Liang Pengfei said, "Many of our comrades forgot that the opponent was a simulated blue army during the confrontation. I don't need to say which blue army to simulate, right? I don't need to say more about the situation of the powerful enemy blue army, right? Their battlefield perception Needless to say, what are the capabilities? The global satellite communication system alone is incomparable to us. The purpose of the Falcon Brigade is to get closer to the level of the Blue Army. The scope of the Beiku Tactical Intelligence Interaction Network does not cover the fourth combat readiness The area where the field station is located is not very blue, so the modified Dongsanguai fighter jet was dispatched as a signal expansion aircraft."

He pointed at Cheng Da, "Chief of Staff Cheng, the issue of blue team using the Identification Friend or Foe system to confirm your position is actually not a problem. There is such a line in the enemy situation background set by the guidance and control department. Please read it carefully."

Chengda quickly found the document and looked through it.

"The last paragraph on page three." Liang Pengfei reminded.

Cheng Da read out in a low voice: "... fighting for air supremacy when encountering a one-way transparent environment on the battlefield..."

It's a very common sentence. At the time of the analysis meeting, no one paid too much attention to this sentence. Anything can be encountered on the battlefield, and the requirement for troops to operate in complex electromagnetic environments has been put forward for a long time. Battlefield reconnaissance construction is also on the agenda. No one has paid special attention to the possible impact of this sentence.

Who would have thought that the key point is hidden in this simple and ordinary sentence?

The big red eagles looked at each other, feeling something was wrong but couldn't figure out what was wrong. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it, but after thinking about it again, they felt that the logic didn't make sense. After going back and forth over and over again, I suddenly realized a fundamental principle - what the command and control department said is the battlefield background is the battlefield background.

Liang Pengfei said, "Deliberately creating problems for the red team is one of the working principles of our guidance department, but this time it is not deliberately creating problems. Since the simulated blue team is going to do something like that, I ask you, one day in the future When you go to war with a powerful enemy and you are faced with the same situation as yesterday, what should you do? Are you blaming the enemy for having too advanced weapons and equipment? Or are you blaming your own army for not being able to build it well?"

"In fact, there is no need to send Dongsanguai fighter planes to serve as such an airborne unlimited routing repeater. What kind of situation is a matter of just one sentence from the command and control department? It is impossible and will not ask you for the background of the enemy situation in our command and control department." Do you understand your opinion?"

This was said very domineeringly.

Liang Pengfei pointed to the Falcon Battalion and said, "This time the Air Force intends to test the combat capabilities of the simulated Blue Army Falcon Battalion, and also conduct a practical test of the Beiku Tactical Intelligence Interaction System, so this move was made. Although they are The plan was submitted after the fight started, but this is just a procedural issue and is secondary. I believe you are clear about the key points."

"Is there a problem in determining your position through the Identification Friend or Foe system? Although I am old and don't understand today's advanced technology, confirming the target position through radio signals is not a new technology. I can tell you now, Beiku Tactical Intelligence Interaction Center Equipped with electronic reconnaissance and jamming capabilities..."

For a full hour, Liang Pengfei talked about three major points, six minor points and eighteen A specific question only took an hour and a half.

Cheng Da, Chen Yongkui and other big red eagles finally understood that the Beiku Guidance Department and the Falcon Brigade basically wore the same pair of pants, and any rules were just scraps of paper and did not count at all. But when you calm down and think about it, most of what Liang Pengfei said makes sense.

A basic point: Any tactical arrangement that is conducive to improving the combat effectiveness of the troops is necessary.

"Are you here to win a confrontation exercise or are you here to find your own shortcomings, discover problems, solve them, and improve your combat effectiveness?"

Liang Pengfei finally asked a question that hit the core.

Everyone was lost in thought, including the commanders and fighters of the Falcon Brigade. They will draw inferences about other cases and think about how they should handle themselves in another position. For example, if our side is in the position of the Big Red Eagles and faces yesterday's battlefield environment, whether we can win the battle.

Li Zhan also fell into deep thought: Can the Falcon Brigade win under the same circumstances?

It seems that no one can answer this question, at least no one dares to answer this question now. If we want to describe the Chinese Air Force in 2011, then it is obviously appropriate to use the phrase "the intersection of a lot of waste and initial development". There are many wastes waiting to be done at the level of combat awareness, tactics and thinking, and the initial development of weapons and equipment development and construction.

It's just a temporarily modified and crudely made small signal relay machine, and it has already had such a big impact. Is this the only battlefield environment we will face in future wars with the Yankees? Obviously not, it will be the most complete battlefield awareness network in the world that is pervasive.

They are all young and young grassroots military cadres of the Air Force. They easily accept and understand the joints involved.

So at the end, Cheng Da asked the last question on behalf of the Red Eagle troops: "So, is the blue team's Yaoliu Yaoliu determined to have been shot down by us?"

This is the last bit of dignity left for Big Red Eagle.
