在这个人人都追求美的年代，有一种美透着赤胆、威武、果敢和刚强，这就是军人之美。这份美，始于信仰、铸于胜战、显于坚守。前不久，中央宣传部、中央军委政治工作部联合发布12名“最美新时代革命军人”。军人之美，不靠颜值装扮，而靠精武定义。 “只要身披军装，就必须肩负使命。”李灿、王晓明、王涛、步佳文、周宏潮等12名官兵，是全军部队在党的旗帜下，加强政治上的革命性锻造、推动实现建军一百年奋斗目标的伟大实践中涌现出的先进典型。他们中有用党的创新理论铸魂育人的政治教员、赓续血脉建设过硬连队的带兵骨干，有能参善谋研战务战的机关参谋、实战实训精武强能的特战尖兵，有逐梦深蓝驰骋大洋的优秀指挥员、苦练精飞搏击长空的飞行员标兵，有潜心为战制胜网信疆场的科研先锋、紧盯前沿攻关新域新质的研究专家，还有铆定战位潜心装备保障的工匠能手、奋战在海防一线的国防动员先锋……探究他们的共同特点，无一例外皆是业务尖子、训练能手、精武标兵，这也正是他们最美的地方。文无第一，武无第二。军人生来为战胜，战场从来无亚军。对军人来说，只有能力过硬、素质一流，才能战胜对手、赢得荣耀。作战之事，关乎千军万马；运筹之要，定夺战争胜败。中部战区联合参谋部某局参谋李灿，以“明天就要上战场”的心态对待每一次方案拟制、数据核对，“胸中常怀变局博弈，脑中常演未来战事”。他紧盯世界军事发展潮流，深入研究信息化智能化战争制胜机理，主动攻关联合作战指挥、新型作战力量运用等重难点问题，将全部精力投入谋战研战。这样指技合一的参谋人才，自然是“最美”。顾巧云，网络空间部队某部研究员。她以国家和军队需要为科研方向，长期从事高难技术分析研究，攻坚无形战场、抢占斗争前沿，在新域新质战斗力生成方面取得多项关键技术突破。这样勇蹚新路的巾帼英雄，当然是“最美”。车尔尼雪夫斯基说过：“凡是我们看得见依照我们的理解应当如此的生活，就是美。”作为一名普通人，美的标准可能有千万条。但军人是要上战场的，只能靠实力说话。唯有精武强能，拉得出、上得去、打得赢，不辱使命、不负重担，才能当之无愧地称为“最美”。今天，科技已成为核心战斗力，新的作战模式、作战手段加速演进，无人作战、信息作战、智能作战等成为主要战争形态。“世易时移，变法宜矣。”战争的“脸”不停地在改变，精武的标准也必须与时俱进。要想称得上“最美”，不仅要有体能、技能，还要有智能；不仅要有战斗精神，还要有科学精神；不仅要个体过硬，还要有体系思维。也就是说，“最美”军人的硬核实力，既要有革命加拼命的无畏勇气，还要有心胜加智胜的科学素养。 “最美新时代革命军人”王文彬，扎根网信疆场前沿阵地，博弈高端制胜无形战场，紧盯科技之变、战争之变、对手之变，探索网络信息防御新模式，带领团队攻克多项关键技术难题，圆满完成多项重大任务，创新战法技法10余项，有效助推战斗力提升。他的精武，体现了时代的要求，增加了战争的胜算。军人之美，用精武定义，靠胜战检验。战场打不赢，一切等于零。战场是最严苛的审计师，也是对“最美”最好的检验场。每名官兵都应自觉向“最美新时代革命军人”学习，争当训练尖子、精武之星、打仗行家，把打仗的本领练强，把制胜的底气蓄足，切实锻造出制强胜强的过硬能力，确保一旦有事能决胜疆场，有效捍卫国家主权、安全、发展利益。

Summary

Machine summary

The Central Propaganda Department and the CMC Political Work Department jointly named 12 'Most Beautiful Revolutionary Soldiers of the New Era,' including Central Theater Command Joint Staff Department staff officer Li Can, cyberspace forces researcher Gu Qiaoyun, and cyber-information domain (网信疆场) operator Wang Wenbin, with the announcement framed entirely around 精武 (martial excellence) rather than appearance or political virtue. The article documents how the PLA's official model-soldier campaign has shifted its evaluative criteria toward technical warfighting competence in informatized and intelligentized warfare, new-domain capabilities, and systems thinking — a framing that extends the pattern of PLA political work instrumentalizing hero-model propaganda to reinforce capability-building priorities rather than ideological loyalty alone. What remains unknown is the specific unit affiliations of most honorees and whether the selection criteria represent a formal policy change or editorial emphasis by military media.
