Summary
Machine summaryA frigate flotilla assigned to the PLA Southern Theater Command Navy conducted round-the-clock, multi-subject maritime training covering anti-submarine acoustic countermeasures, anti-piracy operations, sea-surface gunnery, and underway replenishment — all four disciplines in a single continuous exercise period. The combination of blue-water sustainment (underway replenishment) with acoustic countermeasures and surface gunnery in one training cycle documents the flotilla working toward integrated, sustained combat readiness rather than single-mission proficiency. The article provides no unit designator, location, or participant numbers, limiting what can be said about scale or geographic focus.
