Struggling against the sea and sky, weaving a 'heavenly net'
2026-09-21
Refueling, power on, inspection... In early autumn, a special aircraft from a certain naval unit quickly completed pre flight preparations at an airport. At the same time, multiple unmanned aerial vehicles from the sister units were neatly arranged, and the operators checked the equipment parameters item by item. With the command from the tower, the special aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles took off simultaneously, marking the beginning of a manned unmanned collaborative training.
Flying over a certain sea area, the special aircraft crew activated their onboard equipment and successfully connected with the unmanned aerial vehicle to build an electromagnetic "sky network" between the sea and the sky. Capturing signals, identifying targets, optimizing links... In the cabin of a special aircraft, officers and soldiers from various combat positions collaborate efficiently, and battlefield data flows in real-time between the special aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles. A set of "high-altitude wide area surveillance, low altitude close in supplement" reconnaissance positions quickly takes shape.
Before long, the special aircraft radar operator locked onto the "enemy" target signal and immediately shared the information with the drone and ground command center. Upon receiving guidance instructions, the drone operator lightly pushed the control stick, adjusted the drone's flight attitude, and quickly approached the target.
Suddenly, the light spot signal on the radar display screen flickered incessantly, and the reconnaissance image transmitted by the drone became extremely unstable. The air commander immediately ordered the activation of the emergency plan, and the participating officers and soldiers acted quickly: the radar operator switched the detection frequency band and analyzed the interference source; Inside the ground shelter, the operator controls the drone to maneuver flexibly and avoid "enemy" interference by leveraging the terrain.
In this training, we have established a combat chain of 'high-altitude networking guidance for special aircraft, close range reconnaissance for unmanned aerial vehicles, and real-time coordinated disposal of multiple platforms', and multiple sets of collaborative combat methods in complex electromagnetic environments have been tested in practice. "The leaders of the department introduced that they closely focus on the operational requirements of the system, strictly set up special situations for aircraft, and force officers and soldiers to study combat methods, practice coordination, and strengthen their abilities in dangerous situations.
Quickly, the officers and soldiers completed the calculation of the coordinates of the "enemy" interference source, and then launched a series of anti-interference measures. On the radar screen, the clutter gradually attenuates and the target signal returns to stability. At the same time, the drone relies on a backup link to transmit the detected images back to the command terminal.
After comprehensive analysis, the air commander ordered the unmanned aerial vehicle to conduct close range reconnaissance at low altitude, while the special aircraft launched a wide area search. Two channels of information converge at the command terminal to achieve comprehensive verification. The participating officers and soldiers successfully completed a series of practical detection tasks in a complex electromagnetic environment, capturing and tracking multiple batches of targets, and their collaborative ability was effectively tested.
As the night grew darker, special aircraft and drones returned one after another. The participating officers and soldiers then entered the conference room and conducted a review based on flight data and video footage. They discussed improvement measures for the problems exposed during the training and clarified the direction for the next step of training. (Looking into the New Era)
