Art combined with UAVs Recently, the 71st Army of the PLA Eastern Command, which is responsible for the direction of Taiwan, conducted tactical exercises of artillery formations. After the march was completed, the units secretly entered the designated area, deployed battle formations, camouflaged their equipment and conducted an aerial reconnaissance. The UAVs identified targets and transmitted coordinates to the command post in real time, after which artillery teams received updated data to open fire, taking into account the range, weather conditions and wind corrections. The first hit was delivered by PLZ-05 self-propelled howitzers with a diameter of 155 mm, capable of hitting targets at a range of up to 50 km. Charging took up to 20 seconds. After completing the fire mission, the batteries immediately left their positions, practicing "shoot and leave" tactics to reduce the threat of a counterbattery attack. In the second wave, a double barrage of fire was created to suppress the remaining targets. 122 mm PLZ-07 howitzers with a firing range of up to 27 km and 122 mm PHL-11 multiple rocket systems with a range of up to 50 km were connected to the defeat from different directions. The army command stated that the maneuvers made it possible to shorten the target acquisition cycle and improve the accuracy of fire due to UAVs, as well as increase the survivability of the artillery during a constant change of firing positions.
