This year’s competition is large in scale and comprehensive in scope, featuring 10 events with 24 categories. Of these, nine are specialized engineering disciplines conducted in tactical formations with high technical requirements. The events demand close coordination and seamless execution of multiple contents, closely aligned with the requirements of modern combat operations, high-tech warfare, and both regular and unexpected peacetime missions of the engineering force.
In his directive speech, Lieutenant General Le Van Huong emphasized that, in light of the evolving task of safeguarding the Fatherland, the engineering force must continue improving training quality and combat readiness, while pro-actively mastering modern military science and technology.
