Since the Gulf War and Kosovo conflict, the People’s Liberation Army Air Force has acknowledged the future war will be different from the traditional ones. In a future high-tech local war, the People's Liberation Army Air Force will be called up as the first unit to encounter the enemy. The People's Liberation Army Air Force is working on its way to reform its military doctrine, adjust its military training guidelines and renew its old equipment. By establishing an all-weather and attack-defense air force to battle in a modern high-tech environment, it is hoped to acquire the full ability to perform ”local war under high-tech conditions.”
