A unit of China's Second Artillery Force recently conducted a military drill to enhance the combat ability of the missile force in the information age.
Dozens of special missile vehicles joined the drill.
The drill simulated an incident in which the missile force experienced various attacks, such as electromagnetic interference and chemical and biological weapons.
A combat platform was also set up to share information among all combat units. At the same time, the command system was integrated with the weapons system to ensure a timely counterattack on enemy targets.
Tan Weihong is commander of the Second Artillery Force brigade.
"We organized a closed survival training for the troops during the Spring Festival to test and enhance their combat ability and to ensure our troops and equipment can be mobilized at any time and our missiles can hit the targets at all times. This boosted the ability of the troops to fight and win wars."
Meanwhile, some targeted trainings were also conducted during the drill to obtain missile-launching data in extreme weather conditions.
