Summary

Machine summary

The Ministry of National Defense Peacekeeping Affairs Center and Air Force Engineering University will co-host a UN peacekeeping UAV training course in Xi'an in mid-to-late October, drawing instructors and trainees from the UN and eight countries including Algeria, Malaysia, and South Africa across 31 topics covering UAV deployment, command and control, and counter-UAV employment. The course documents China's use of multilateral peacekeeping training as a venue for exporting UAV operational doctrine—framed around the three-part standard of 规范化 (standardized), 组织专业化 (organizationally professional), and 指挥高效化 (command-efficient)—to partner-country militaries, with Air Force Engineering University positioned as the institutional hub for that transfer.
