A Chinese military research institute is increasing its efforts on ways to bolster combat readiness, reports the South China Morning Post.
The Systems Engineering Institute, which is part of the Academy of Military Science, is tasking researchers with determining the urgent requirements of frontline troops, reported the army's official PLA Daily on Monday.
The Academy of Military Science is a high-level research institute within the People's Liberation Army (PLA) that focuses on doctrine, research and development. It has eight constituent institutes.
Researchers will work with civilian bodies to enhance logistics and communications capabilities, said the newspaper.
The majority of the institute's projects this year focus on combat readiness, said the publication.
President Xi Jinping has made enhancing combat readiness a priority this year.
