During the voyage, the troops have conducted various joint force-on-force drills involving multiple services and arms on more than 20 subjects, including wartime replenishment, air defense and missile defense, and collaborative anti-submarine warfare by ships and aircraft, in a bid to test the equipment performance and improve tactics and training methods.
任务期间，编队在大洋深处，择机与各军兵种展开了多项联合对抗训练，先后完成了战时补给、防空反导、舰机协同反潜等20余项课题研练。积极探索新质作战力量在广域新域下作战效能发挥，有效检验新装备效能边界，系统性验证了新战法训法的实际运用。
