Chairman xi stressed the need for a major breakthrough as soon as possible through the adoption of extraordinary measures and the multipronged development of joint operational commands. This is a profound explanation of the importance, urgency and complexity of joint operational command development and a fundamental requirement for accelerating the pace of joint operational command development. As the joint operational command system is gradually established and operational, the development of more and better-adapted joint operational commands has become a major reality for our military capacity-building, which is strongly underpinned by the “point-to-point” of our military construction。
Relaying - basic path to joint operations command development
Joint operational command development requires a step-by-step process from the lower to the middle levels. The “hand-in-hand” intermediate schools and the “hand-in-hand” primary schools of the higher education institutions, as well as the three tertiary institutions, are working together in an integrated manner, both as a necessary path to the growth of joint command and as a basic model of joint command development among the military forces of the world today。
Primary schools focus on awareness and foundation. The cadets of junior colleges are the bases of joint combat command, and there will be no high-quality joint combat command without a well-qualified group of junior commands, as is the case with the so-called “no tannery”. It is important to develop a sense of unity throughout the process of talent development, to instil a sense of unity from the beginning of the trainee's career and from the beginning of the war, to strengthen joint thinking and to recognize that unity is the key to winning modern warfare. At the same time, the integration of joint operational awareness, information and knowledge among participants has been increased through extra-curricular courses and the organization of joint combat knowledge competitions and lectures。
Secondary schools focus on quality and skills. Secondary schools play a leading role in joint operational command and are critical to the growth of talent, which must be built with a view to enhancing quality and capacity. The basic principles of joint operations, the technical capabilities of information-based weapons equipment, especially new types of equipment, etc., need to be developed in order to broaden the pool of participants; the integration of integrated posture maps and the use of a variety of operational data chains are required to enable the participants to develop their skills。
Higher education institutions focus on crafting and broadening their perspectives. War is wisdom, strategy and game. Joint operational commands must have a high level of discipline. The institutions of higher education must look at the new military revolution in the world, look at the world's military development landscape, build on the future of joint operations in multi-dimensional battlegrounds and dig deeper into the secrets of war. The traditional approach to teaching needs to be changed by using “pre-war” as a large classroom created by the combined operational command capability of the participants. Fully exploit the technical advantage of simulation simulations by setting up “joint battlefields” to enable participants to practice decision-making in a near-real-war environment; and use the exercise as a practice class generated by the combined command capability of the trainees, so that it can be integrated in depth throughout the process as the main command-generated position to resolve the problem of the joint operational command capability in a peaceful environment。
Joint training — a strong pusher in joint operational command
In the absence of war practice, close combat training has undoubtedly become the cradle of the growth of joint operational commands. To translate knowledge and skills into joint operational command capability through joint training continuity and outreach。
Multi-modal integration into joint force training. This is an effective way of developing talent from classroom to training ground. The foreign forces attach great importance to the development and upgrading of joint operational command capabilities in major exercises. For example, since 2009, the united states army has organized 60 to 80 joint combat exercises of varying sizes in different environments and overseas hotspots, all of which have involved students from various degrees of education. The participation of the participants in the force exercises has been consolidated and their joint command capabilities have been strengthened and enhanced through their presence, their role as mentors, and their respective roles and depths of participation in the exercises ' round-trip exchange seminars, and the writing of participation experience sessions。
Building a platform to allow participants to lead joint training. The institution could take the form of a joint training platform that would allow more time for participants to join the training. On the one hand, the introduction of a simulation technology platform, a simulation of the operational environment for near-real-war operations, as well as of the operational operations of the combined forces and the target of the mission, has enabled the participants to feel at home and to lay the foundation for their skilled command procedures through an intuitive and visual command experience. On the other hand, it aims at modern joint combat operations and organizes joint exercises, either physically or online. The participants are trained as a whole in several simulated command bodies, organized according to the elements of command, until such time as the consortium is able to perform joint operational command tasks. The introduction of “test-type” training, i. E. The designation of different simulated ufos, each playing a red and blue role, conducting a full element, a chain of command over and over again, an all-process adversarial exercise, and, where appropriate, a role exchange to ensure that command procedures and content are fully trained, trained and trained。
“getting out” is involved in major training exercises. Informational warfare is technically highly integrated, integrated in the operational style, and objectively requires joint command training to be open-minded, to pursue a multifaceted and integrated path and to seek and utilize educational resources in larger spaces. Military diplomacy should be further expanded to give the joint operational commands an international perspective and strategic thinking through the deployment of more military cadets. At the same time, command colleges should increase opportunities for study abroad while students are studying at their schools, and junior colleges in a position to do so should have arrangements for study tours abroad, so that our joint command can be trained in the wider world environment。
Cross-hatting — the necessary gateway for joint operational command development
Inter-military service is an essential avenue for expanding the vision of joint operational command and improving the quality of integrated capacity development. The development of joint operational command cannot follow the traditional “one-line” model of a single military force, requiring an eye to the requirements of joint combat to enable the talent to grow in the broad range of the military and to achieve a higher level of competence through cross-services。
It's a good way to communicate between the military and the military. Cross-military representation is an indispensable and even more indispensable link in the development of joint operational commands of foreign forces. In order to ensure the implementation of the system of cross-rotation of posts, the united states army has successively enacted a series of regulations, such as the personnel management act for national defence forces officers, requiring joint operational commanders to serve in the same post for a period of not more than four years, closely linking the cross-rotation of posts to the promotion of posts and ranks. At present, there is an urgent need to develop relevant policy regulations and regulations to facilitate the rotation of command posts。
Access to schools and the army. The issue of “two tracks” for the development of school and army cadres has been fundamentally addressed through a substantial extension of the period of cross-service and its consolidation into a system of key steps and policies for talent development。
It's a straight line of talent communication. The unique working environment and nature of the personnel of the senior organs, which give them a broad vision, a global awareness and a good strategic thinking capability, is a rare condition for the development of joint operational commands, who are well-versed in weapons equipment and battle tactics training and are the basic qualities of joint operational commands who “can fight”. This “two-unit” of talent is a countervailing force that will inevitably produce 1+1>2 effects。
Joint culture — strong development of joint operational command voto
It is difficult for a people without spiritual strength to be self-reliant and for a cause without cultural support to last. Culture is a “soft power” for nurturing and upgrading the quality of talent development, and joint combat requires the support of a united culture, which makes the formation of joint combat commands more of a fertile joint cultural hotbed。
The idea of joint values. The concept is a precursor to action, and what values it has, and what motivation it has. Foreign forces believe that the first 10 to 15 years of the military revolution have been dominated by the formation of a united culture. Thus, the concept of joint values cannot be underestimated, affecting both the development of joint operational command and the degree of integration of joint operations. It is necessary to have a deep understanding of the fact that information warfare is a coalition victory, that any single army history of war will not be repeated, and that deep alliances will create a strong overall combat capability; that the concept of coalition victory must be promoted in a variety of ways, including modern war case analysis, academic media dissemination, theoretical research and so forth, so that the concept of coalition victory will reach the people, so that the vast military command will be united, aware of the whole, aware of the larger picture。
Fostering joint thinking habits. The difference between joint operational command and traditional command development models is important in terms of different mindsets and approaches. The long-standing accumulation of military culture has led to the formation of a “solidified” military-type mindset. The promotion of a culture of unity involves breaking down the cultural barriers of the military, eliminating the cultural divisions of the military, creating a strong sense of unity, a deep sense of solidarity and a high degree of joint self-consciousness, so that joint thinking can gradually be consolidated into a habit that will fundamentally integrate the ranks of the different armies, units, departments and sectors。
Build joint knowledge systems. The joint knowledge system is the intellectual underpinning of joint operational capability. The development of joint operational commands is, first and foremost, the establishment of a joint knowledge system, which brings together junior, middle and higher-level institutions, tactical and technical support, as well as a cross-cutting and horizontal link between the institutions and the forces, to support and guide the knowledge base needed for the growth of joint operational commands. The knowledge systems required for the development of joint operational commands of our forces need to be clearly understood and a map of the objectives of the joint knowledge systems should be drawn; tasks should be distinguished, efforts should be organized, and joint knowledge and innovation should be strengthened, with a view to winning joint operations under modern conditions and building joint operational knowledge systems with the characteristics of our forces。
