Recently, the Navy's hospital ship "Peace Ark", which is carrying out the "Harmony Mission-2024" mission, carried out carrier-based helicopter flight training across day and night in a certain sea area of the Indian Ocean to test the crew's ship-aircraft coordination and all-weather landing capabilities in unfamiliar waters and complex meteorological conditions.

With the order of the commander and guide of the tower, the helicopter immediately took off, and under the command of the mission command post, it flew on alert in the surrounding sea area. Due to the strong gusts of wind at sea, the swell reached more than 2 meters, causing the hull to sway. The pilot seized the opportunity to maneuver the helicopter to land steadily in the deck marking circle, and after several takeoffs and landings, the daytime training ended.

As night fell, night flight training began. The pilot overcame the disadvantages and used the weak light of the ship as a reference to fly the fighter plane to the deck with precision. Under the command and guidance of the tower, the helicopter took off and landed several times on the "Peace Ark".
