亚丁湾,2月25日 -- 日前,正在亚丁湾执行护航任务的海军第37批护航编队开展了一场营救被劫“商船”反恐反海盗演练。

GULF OF ADEN, Feb. 25 -- The 37th escort taskforce of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy, who is carrying out escort missions in the Gulf of Aden, held an anti-terrorism and anti-piracy drill featuring the rescue of hijacked merchant ships.

演练第一阶段,综合补给舰洪湖舰模拟被劫商船。接到求救信息后,编队指挥所立即组织兵力前出营救。直升机携特战队员和侦察取证人员紧急升空,抵近侦察,并实时向指挥所反馈信息,指挥所派出两组特战队员乘坐小艇展开解救“人质”行动。在舰载火力掩护下,两组特战队员密切配合,顺利登上被劫“商船”,并成功解救“人质”。

In the first stage, the comprehensive supply ship Honghu (Hull 963) simulated the hijacked merchant ship. Upon receiving the distress message, the command post of the escort taskforce immediately organized troops to go forward for rescue. A helicopter took the special operations force (SOF) members into the air for close reconnaissance. Then the command post sent out two SOF groups for the hostages rescue task by rigid-hull inflatable boats. Under the cover of shipboard firepower, the two groups of special operations members boarded the hijacked ship and successfully rescued the "hostages".

演练第二阶段,导调组模拟导弹驱逐舰长沙舰为被劫“商船”。指挥所根据实际情况,迅速派出直升机展开营救行动,特战队员通过直升机索降的方式登上被劫“商船”,交叉掩护展开舱室搜索,成功解救全部“人质”。

In the second stage, the guided-missile destroyer Changsha (Hull 173) was set as the hijacked merchant ship. According to the actual situation, the command post quickly dispatched a helicopter for rescue operation. The SOF members boarded the hijacked ship by rope-rappelling, carried out cabin search, and successfully rescued all the hostages.

此外,编队还临机开展了轻武器射击、战伤救护等课目的训练。

Besides, the escort taskforce also carried out training on light weapons shooting and rescue for battle wounds.
