In the vast autumn, on a tarmac deep in the desert, officers and soldiers of a certain Air Force unit are intensively carrying out support operations, and a multi aircraft, multi course system confrontation training is about to begin. Autumn wind is gradually rising, dust is flying, and visibility around the airport is gradually decreasing. After receiving instructions, Li Songhao, a key member of the meteorological profession, immediately operated a meteorological drone to take off for detection. Faced with real-time weather information transmitted from the screen, he adjusted his calculation method and calmly analyzed data such as wind direction, wind speed, visibility, etc. The weather is expected to meet the flight conditions in one hour and we can take off on time. ”After analysis, Li Songhao made suggestions to the commander. Sure enough, the weather improved before the fighter jets flew, and one fighter jet after another soared into the sky, carrying out training as planned. The frequent sandstorms and floating dust in the station place higher demands on our meteorological monitoring and forecasting. ”Director He of the meteorological station introduced that in response to the complex seasonal weather in the region, they have jointly established a meteorological data database with the stationed meteorological department to achieve meteorological information fusion processing, integrated display, and rapid correlation retrieval. At the same time, they introduced meteorological drones for meteorological monitoring, providing accurate data support for flight training. In order to fully utilize the role of meteorological drones as "airborne meteorological sentries", the department adopts a "theoretical lectures+practical training+assessment and acceptance" mode to organize meteorological drone operators to learn and train. In theoretical classes, they invited higher-level business departments to systematically analyze the application principles and performance parameters of meteorological drones, and explain the operational skills and technical characteristics of meteorological drones in extreme weather conditions. In the practical process, they organized training courses such as ultra-low altitude cruising and fixed-point meteorological element detection to strengthen their abilities in rapid deployment, precise operations, and emergency response. Meteorological drones not only double the detection range, but also save a lot of warning time, significantly improving the efficiency and accuracy of meteorological observations. ”As the first operator of the meteorological station to pass the qualification assessment for meteorological unmanned aerial vehicle operators, Zhang Penghui said that the "airborne meteorological sentry" has provided assistance for officers and soldiers to "observe wind and rain". He and his comrades have explored multiple innovative support methods with the help of meteorological unmanned aerial vehicles. (New Society)
