China's Air Force Intensifies Training
Chinese air force has intensified trainings in an effort to enhance its combat strength, the People's Liberation Army Daily reported Tuesday.
The report said that the air force has largely improved its counter electromagnetic interference ability in preparation for a high-tech war.
The training, which was kicked off last year, signals a shift of the air force's focus from mere "safety first" to improve striking ability, the paper said.
All the combat regiments of the air force were ordered to strengthen anti-electromagnetic interference ability by carrying out regular training in complex meteorological and electromagnetic environments, according to the paper.
"That will enable them to get closer to the actual combat situation," it said, adding that the number of participating pilots has reached record highs.
The paper said that mock air-to-ground or air-to-air battles have been launched in the training, aiming to improve the air force's striking capability.
