Blue waves spread across the sky, and battleships lined up to defend peace. On July 11, the maritime exercise phase of the Sino-Russian “Joint Maritime Joint - 2026” exercise came to an end. In this maritime exercise, the Chinese and Russian fleet conducted exercises on subjects such as submarine aid and life saving, sea assault, and air defense and anti-missile defense. The two sides deepened mutual trust through efficient collaboration, further enhanced joint combat capabilities, and consolidated and deepened traditional friendly and cooperative relationships. The organization and implementation of this maritime exercise course is flexible, and the requirements for combat coordination are high. There is no script between China and Russia. Frontline commanders decide on the movement and firepower distribution of the formation according to the situation on the battlefield, hydrology and meteorology, etc. At the same time, the participating forces adopted a mixed formation model to build a joint combat system based on various sea, air, and submarine platforms. Looking back at these tens of hours of maritime exercises, Chinese and Russian naval officers and soldiers closely collaborated in the midst of wind and waves, tightened the sky net in the electromagnetic fog, and worked together to deal with threats when they came, effectively testing the joint reconnaissance and early warning, command coordination, and fire strike capabilities of the two sides in a complex electromagnetic environment.
