Summary

Machine summary

The China-Singapore 'Maritime Cooperation-2026' joint exercise concluded September 9 after five days in the Zhanjiang area, with the PLA Navy missile frigate Dali and the Republic of Singapore Navy frigate RSS Steadfast conducting eight exercise serials including surface gunnery, underway replenishment positioning, and joint search and rescue, with Southern Theater Command Naval Aviation Force personnel also participating in cross-deck helicopter observation. The article notes this was the first Singapore Navy port visit to China for a bilateral exercise in two years, and the detailed coverage of observer exchanges — including Singaporean interest in Chinese shipborne helicopter pre-flight procedures — documents the exercise as a structured professional-military engagement rather than a symbolic one. What remains unspecified is whether additional PLA surface or submarine assets participated beyond the Dali, limiting assessment of the exercise's actual scale.

潮涌海阔 谊结深蓝 ——中新“海上合作-2026”联合演习回眸 ■解放军报记者 杨晓敏 高思佳 9月9日，历时5天的中国和新加坡“海上合作-2026”联合演习圆满结束。这是新加坡海军舰艇时隔2年再次来到中国进行联合演习。 回望全程，务实交流、深度融合是本次联演的鲜明特色。此次联演分为港岸交流和海上演习两个阶段。港岸交流期间，两国海军组织了舰艇参观活动。参演的中方导弹护卫舰大理舰与新方“坚定”号护卫舰成为两国官兵增进了解、深入交流的平台。除了互相介绍舰艇情况、日常训练经验，中新双方官兵还围坐在一起，对照演习方案细致推演课目流程，围绕潜水作业、潜艇搜索和救援、水下医学等内容反复沟通。 9月8日，联演转入海上演习阶段。湛江某军港码头，随着一声声汽笛响起，记者跟随官兵奔赴预定海域。本阶段第一天，中新双方派出观察员相互观摩学习。新方观察员沈睿明跟随大理舰舰员来到后甲板直升机起降平台。中新双方舰载直升机在操作细节上有一些不同，沈睿明对中方舰载直升机起飞前的准备工作很感兴趣，连连发问。“飞行日前，我们有全面、细致的预先机务准备阶段。飞行日的直接机务准备则保留重点检查项目。”来自南部战区海军航空兵某部的向磊为他认真解答。 中方观察员郑盛嵩曾担任“中新合作-2024”海上联演的联络官。此次观摩学习活动当天，他观看了通信操演、编队运动、海上补给占位等课目演练。其中，海上补给占位演练紧贴协同保障实战需求展开。大理舰与“坚定”号精准调控航向航速，稳定保持同向同速战术阵位。甲板作业官兵分工明确，抛出引缆、架设距离索、收回引缆等各环节规范高效、紧张有序。中新双方舰员展现出的良好素质，以及专业上的密切协作，给郑盛嵩留下深刻印象。 海上演习阶段设置了8个课目，对海射击是其中的重点。9日上午，战斗警报拉响后，雷达持续搜索跟踪、火控系统持续锁定靶标，指挥所实时研判海空态势。在统一战术口令指引下，舰炮骤然轰鸣。记者在大理舰上看到，远处的目标被精准命中。 海上搜救、应急处置等是各国海军共同面对的现实课题。“发现模拟遇险目标，联合搜救演练开始！”接到指令后，双方舰艇快速调整阵位，划分搜救区域。此时，天空飘起小雨，在海风与浪涛之间，两军官兵密切配合、联动处置，精准锁定目标点位，高效完成小艇投放、人员搜救等一系列实战流程，有效检验了双方协同处置海上突发险情、遂行人道主义救援任务的能力。 大理舰驾驶室内，中方参谋人员对记者说：“为了顺利完成联演，我们针对气象、海况、海区环境、操作流程等做了大量前期准备，并与新方充分交流。从各课目演练结果看来，达到了预期目标。” “海洋将两国紧密相连，此类演习为我们提供了加强友谊与信任的宝贵契机。”演习进入尾声时，通过舰艇间电台，“坚定”号舰长的声音清晰传递到大理舰，他期待与中国海军再次相遇。
