The main goal of the operation was to test personnel skills and strengthen operational readiness in scenarios involving chemical, biological, or radiological contamination.
One of the key highlights of the training was once again the use of robot dogs. These autonomous devices were deployed to patrol potentially contaminated areas, transmitting real-time footage and providing critical visual data for decision-making.
According to the PLA, the use of these robots significantly reduces the time required to assess contaminated environments and minimizes human contact with hazardous substances. The involvement of robot dogs highlights the growing integration of new technologies with NBC protection forces.
The drill concluded with decontamination procedures for personnel, degassing, and cleaning of military equipment, simulating a full response to incidents involving chemical agents.
