New support equipment has been unveiled at the training ground at an altitude of 4,700 meters Qinghai-Xizang Plateau in Xining, Northwest China's Qinghai Province, including support modules for oil, medical service, camping and supplies to provide emergency support for mobile troops along the way.

The support module moved nearly a thousand miles to the configuration area on the plateau, and quickly established an effective joint logistics base that can give full play to the whole field and multi-level logistics support in a timely manner.

The devices deployed in the base not only have advanced performance and comprehensive functions, but also can meet the daily training and living requirements of soldiers, such as eating, shelter, medical treatment, significantly alleviating the inconvenience of plateau combat training.

The camping cabins for combat operations are not only easy to move, and are equipped with air conditioners, folding beds and other features, which can make the living environment of the soldiers warm in winter and cool in summer in light of the plateau's volatile climate.

The shower shelter can provide hot water within three minutes, so that a large number of soldiers can wash and shower in a relatively short time. The food processing shelter is equipped with fully automatic cooking robots, minimizing the time spent preparing meals for the soldiers.

The camp is also equipped with oxygen tanks that can help soldiers quickly relieve the discomfort caused by altitude hypoxia, which can be continuously filled with oxygen. A facial recognition system and infrared surveillance cameras can grasp the dynamics of the camp and its surrounding environment around the clock.

In addition to the living support of the camp, the logistics unit also operates a variety of refueling vehicles to meet the needs of combat troops and carry out rapid emergency refueling. At the same time, fuel consumption data of various types of equipment is to be accurately collected, so as to further accumulate the experience of fuel support at fixed point.

"Pushing the support force to the front line aims to solve the problem requirements under actual combat circumstances, so that the support force and the combat effectiveness of the army can be improved together," said Wang Ansheng, a deputy commander of a brigade at the Xining Joint Logistics Support Center.
