In the past 60 years, with the pace of modernization of the Air Force, the construction of airport barracks has experienced four development processes in the process of ensuring the combat training, work and life of the troops. Whether it is a dirt track or a dry-base barracks in a war state, or a fourth-generation barracks based on a multi-machine comprehensive support base and a modern new concept barracks, it is the crystallization of painstaking efforts and a symbol of wisdom.
From "Zero" to Building Information Airport Barracks
At the beginning of the founding of New China, the construction of air force airport barracks can be said to be "from scratch", and the air force airport barracks support system was established to provide emergency service support. Until 1953, the work of air force airport barracks basically started from receiving, protecting, managing and using the old airport barracks left by the Kuomintang and the Japanese puppet troops. On this basis, the Air Force established the airport barracks construction management organization and construction troops, newly rebuilt a number of airports and combat readiness airports urgently needed to open aviation schools in Northeast China and East China, and began to build and manage fixed barracks, creating conditions for the all-round development of the Air Force.
From 1954 to 1976, the air force airport barracks, especially the airport construction, developed greatly. During this period, the air force improved the barracks support system of the air force airport and comprehensively carried out the service support work of the aircraft camp. The Air Force has built, expanded and rebuilt a number of airports, positions, command posts and other combat readiness engineering facilities in the southeast coast, the western line and deep areas, and built a large number of barracks for organs, troops and colleges, which has created important conditions for the Air Force's combat readiness training, defending the southwest airspace, opening up snowy routes and adjusting the battlefield layout of the Air Force.
In the 1980s and 1990s, with the reform and opening-up, the military construction embarked on the track of peaceful development, and the barracks support of the air force airport began to change from extensive to intensive, quantitative and scale to quality and efficiency. During this period, the Air Force established a new guiding ideology for engineering construction and created a new situation in the work of the aircraft battalion. During this period, the construction of combat readiness project was put on the agenda, the housing system reform took substantial steps, and the connotation of airport barracks construction was greatly expanded. Many troops walked out of the ravine and lived in buildings. The housing renovation of troops below battalion level and the construction of colleges and research houses have become the focus of work, and the Air Force has begun to build standard barracks in a planned and periodic manner.
In the new century, the Central Military Commission put forward the overall goal of "building an information-based army and winning an information-based war" with a view to promoting the military reform with China characteristics. The Air Force began to implement the military strategic policy in the new period, focusing on the construction of military struggle airport barracks. At present, the focus of airport barracks construction has shifted from ensuring life to ensuring combat readiness; The security content extends from the troops below the battalion to the newly formed army barracks, the comprehensive improvement of the camp, and the housing of the families of non-commissioned officers; The scope of management reform has expanded from housing reform to socialization of barracks support and joint logistics reform, and the air force airport barracks work has entered a new stage of all-round development.
The construction of combat readiness projects has developed and expanded.
The past 60 years, especially after the reform and opening up, are the "golden years" in the historical process of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the "modern people" who have accelerated the development of air force logistics.
In recent years, the air force's investment in combat readiness projects has gradually increased from less than 1 billion yuan per year in the late 1970s to XX billion yuan per year now, achieving a leap from ensuring general weapons and equipment to ensuring new weapons and equipment. Especially since the Ninth Five-Year Plan, we have focused on the construction of multi-aircraft comprehensive support bases, followed the principle of "giving priority to emergency use, supporting operations, building by classification, and highlighting key points", and highlighted the goal of "housing, defense, supply, and ordering", thus speeding up the pace of battlefield facilities transformation. In a relatively short period of time, XX backbone airports, XX underground command posts and XX missile radar positions have been built. Among them, two projects, a radar position and a new airport, won the "Luban Award", the highest national architectural award. At the same time, the airport barracks system starts with system planning, and studies and puts forward relevant ideas and measures around strengthening the support ability of local war aircraft barracks under the condition of informationization.
At present, the air force's non-war military operations airport barracks support capacity has been continuously improved, achieving a leap from basic support to scientific support. During the "transformation" period, airport barracks departments at all levels completed key combat readiness projects, and organized national day military parade, Olympic security, ice and snow disaster prevention and earthquake relief. Organized and implemented more than one supporting construction project 10 of Rugao, Huangpi and other military parade airports to ensure that the troops under review were stationed on schedule; Completed the comprehensive renovation of the air force stationed in Beijing, creating a good urban environment for the Beijing Olympic Games; After the Wenchuan earthquake, the airport barracks system urgently dispatched camping equipment 19300 pieces (sets), cleared 433,000 cubic meters of ruins, leveled 844,000 square meters of ground, demolished 365,438+2,000 square meters of dangerous houses, renovated roads for 49 kilometers, and built 3 temporary primary schools and hospitals 1 institute.
More importantly, the research and development of airport barracks system standards and scientific research projects have achieved fruitful results, achieving a leap from "decentralization" to "integration" and from "fragmentation" to "systematization". The airport barracks fully implemented the guiding ideology of "strengthening the army through science and technology" and the development strategy of "invigorating the aircraft camp through science and technology", carried out in-depth scientific research and innovation around the preparations for military struggle, comprehensively improved the level and quality of air force engineering construction, and achieved a large number of outstanding scientific research results. Among them, 1 1 won the National Science and Technology Progress Award, 23 1 won the Military Science and Technology Progress Award, and 1 13 won the Excellent Survey and Excellent Design Award.
Modern barracks achieve a historic leap
Up to now, the barracks construction of grass-roots units of the Air Force has been upgraded four times, which has achieved a leap from traditional decentralization to unified planning, organizational promotion and systematic development. From pits and adobe houses, to dry shops and simple houses, to basic supporting standard barracks, and then to modern new concept barracks under construction.
Since the new century, the airport barracks have focused on air and ground handling and solving the urgent needs at the grass-roots level, and have made overall plans to solve the problems of aircraft camp support that troops need for war preparation, life and development. All the aircrew dormitories in aviation units have reached the standard of two-person one-room or four-person three-room with bathroom. More than 85% of the ground dormitory has been renovated, 95% of the ground troops have eliminated dangerous houses and met the needs of life. 169 newly formed, expanded and deployed troops urgently need barracks to be built, and more than 200 grass-roots units have been upgraded. For more than 450 grass-roots units, the problems of housing, draught, bathing, power supply and heating were solved, and 1 1 brigade was arranged for comprehensive transformation, and a large number of new-generation barracks with moderate scale, combination of peacetime and wartime, intelligent information and harmonious ecology were built.
The Air Force currently has XX million mu of military land and XX million square meters of barracks. Managing and using this resource well has always been one of the important tasks facing the Air Force. The airport barracks departments at all levels of the Air Force have given full play to their intelligence, based on their own reality, formulated a series of supporting measures, scientifically managed and implemented them, and gradually formed two major systems: barracks real estate regularization management and military land resources management. At present, nearly 400 regimental units of the Air Force have reached standardized management standards, and the method of bidding, auctioning and hanging military land has been fully implemented. The air force airport barracks information management system has been successfully developed and popularized in the business system, which has fully embarked on the refined track of real estate management, brought the standardized management of barracks real estate into the legal era, and achieved a leap from extensive management to refined and information management.
Nowadays, the air force housing construction has achieved a leap from ensuring basic living needs to stressing livable quality. At the same time, the "trinity" housing security system determined by the Central Military Commission and the headquarters was implemented, resettlement houses were built for 33,000 retired Air Force cadres, and 56 retired cadres' camps and barracks were completely transformed. In Beijing, Xi, Shanghai and other large and medium-sized cities, 28,000 on-the-job cadres and workers have been built with affordable housing, which has especially solved the worries of more than10.3 million cadres in remote and hard areas. With an investment of more than 654.38 billion yuan, 42,000 sets of houses for cadres and family members of non-commissioned officers in brigade units were built and renovated, which is known as the "Huimin Project" to unite the military. With the establishment of the basic national policy of environmental protection in the 1980s, the construction of environmental protection and greening in the air force camp began to advance from single afforestation to environmental protection and ecological greening, from single management to large-scale comprehensive management, and from establishing garden-style camp to creating green ecological residential areas. The Air Force has completed more than 300 military special pollution source control projects and more than 60 water pollution control projects, afforested10.5 million mu, and built more than 300 garden-style and green ecological residential areas, realizing the leap from general greening to garden-style greening and from green camp to ecological residential area.
