Chapter 942

This is just one of the many skills of the special forces brigade of the army air force. If all these skills are taken out, the combat effectiveness of the special forces brigade of the army air force is no less than that of the core elite regiment of a class a army.

Of course, it's expensive to build such an army. Among other things, the unit price of the gridpad tablet computer imported from the United States by staff officer Xiaoman alone is as high as $4800.

The whole army aviation special forces brigade is equipped with a total of 120 units, and the expenditure alone has reached 576000 US dollars, which can be converted into millions of RMB.

In addition, there are a series of advanced electronic equipment and reconnaissance equipment, each of which is worth millions or tens of millions of RMB.

Of course, this is a small sum of money for the army aviation special forces brigade. The real big head is still in the 28 helicopters. In addition to some ordinary helicopters used for transportation, the army aviation special forces brigade is also equipped with several special helicopters specially developed by Tengfei group. The performance is not to be said, but the price of each special helicopter is also very touching.

At least tens of millions of yuan, often hundreds of millions of yuan is also common.

In addition, the special forces brigade of the army's air force is far more than other units in terms of the treatment of officers and soldiers. The army's air force alone has invested nearly 3 billion yuan in this battalion level unit.

This figure is almost equivalent to 38.4% of the total annual expenditure of the army and air force. The army and air force alone can't afford it. Fortunately, it has a headquarters to provide a special budget, so it can barely build up the shelf of this special force, which is actually an air assault force.

But that's all.

If we want to build an air assault force of actual scale according to the structure of the 101 air assault division of the United States, the headquarters will be more than willing but less powerful. What's more, even if it is built, how to use the strategy and tactics, how to build the firepower configuration, and more importantly, how to make such a new type of combat force completely embedded in the current domestic combat system It can give full play to its combat effectiveness.

Let alone the headquarters, it is the first time for the whole army.

It is for this reason that the special forces brigade of the army air force, which the headquarters has made great efforts to set up, is not so much a bold attempt to further promote military reform as to try some ways and means to enhance combat effectiveness due to the impact of major events.

If not, there is no need to spend so many resources in a battalion level unit. The reason is that the headquarters believes that this new air assault force represents the future development direction of the army. Even if it is unable to build a larger combat force now, it does not mean that it will not be able to do so in the future.

Once the time is up, and all conditions permit, when we are ready to set up, we suddenly find that there is no experience in all aspects. What should we do? Therefore, before this, we must be forward-looking and use one or two smaller force structures to explore new tactics and cultivate new ways, so as to play the role of seed forces.

It's like the Navy refitting 037 ships with d-50 gas turbines.

In order to improve equipment performance is one aspect, but more important is to train naval officers and men familiar with the use of gas turbine ships, maintenance and combat methods.

After all, weapons and equipment in the future war is an important guarantee for victory or defeat, but the key is still people. If people can't, even if they are armed to the teeth, they will not use anything at last, and they can only run away. Even if weapons and equipment have surpassed zenith, they are nothing.

Of course, the insightful people in the East and West headquarters understand it, the leader of the army and aviation forces knows it, and Jiang Liang and other participants know it well, but it does not mean that all the troops know this truth.

Because of this, when we heard that the army and air force had set up their own combat forces, some military cadres with the idea of heavy assault did not understand this very much.

I feel that the helicopters of land Airlines help to transport troops. When the enemy's firepower is fierce, several armed helicopters should be sent to knock down the armored units of local tanks or solid firepower points. The impact, horizontal pushing and rolling of heavy troops depend on them. What kind of combat forces is necessary?

Is this not obvious duplication of construction?

If you have that money, you might as well save it and add more tanks, armored vehicles and artillery to the army's heavy troops. Even if you don't give it to the army, you can give it to the air force and navy.

To set up a combat unit for the army air force that does not strengthen the company level is a good thing to say that it is wasteful. In fact, it's just mischievous.

There are still many people who think about this kind of thing. To sum up, it's not a question of whether it's OK or not, but it's not necessary.

After all, the army accounts for the majority of the troops, so many combat troops with a long history and brilliant war history can't be independent. Why should they be special?

As for the performance of the U.S. 101 air assault division in the Gulf War, these people also have a sharp point of view, that is, the U.S. has strong national strength and sufficient military spending to afford to play.

Besides Americans, look at other countries in the world. Who dares to do this?

Admiration is admiration, but we should also be down-to-earth and carefully arrange according to our own national conditions. We can't let the United States come up with any new tricks. We all have more than ten aircraft carriers. Can China keep up with them?So we need to be realistic!

The huge controversy has put great pressure on Lu hang. Fortunately, the head of the headquarters has resisted the pressure and advocated the formation of an experimental air assault force. This is the birth of the special forces brigade of the army air force. Otherwise, God knows when this new force representing the future development direction will appear.

But just because of this, including Jiang Liang, the special forces brigade of the army's air force is holding a breath. Since most of them are not optimistic about them, they will show their real skills to those people to see whether the heavy armor is invincible or their flying army is better.

Therefore, Jiang Liang's arrogant statement at the military competition summary meeting some time ago was not aimed at nothing, but to let the whole army look up and down. The special forces brigade of the army's air force, which has initially formed combat capability, has the confidence to promise any enemy.

Sure enough, Jiang Liang's statement immediately caused a big stir in the army. Many veteran and highly effective veteran troops were crying out to fight with the special forces brigade of the army air force.

In addition, the headquarters and other military leaders want to see whether the unit formed in the dispute is of good quality, whether it should continue to be retained, or whether it is too far from the expectation to be abolished. It really needs a comprehensive test.

For the troops, the best test is to have a real fight on the battlefield, followed by an exercise field, where a fight is played face to face.

Domestic peaceful development, war is really not, mules or horses can only be good in the exercise field!
