With the flood season approaching, Tianjin stands ready! On July 5th, a tense yet orderly "real-world blockbuster" unfolded in the waters near Ziya River Ear Gate – the Public Security Administration Brigade of Tianjin Municipal Public Security Bureau coordinated with multiple departments to conduct a joint drill for 2025 flood rescue and water emergency response. Making its debut in live operational testing, the flying lifeboat stole the show, becoming the highlight of the exercise and fortifying a crucial "safety dike" ahead of the upcoming peak flood season.

This drill simulated extreme weather conditions caused by heavy rainfall hitting Tianjin, triggering flood risks at bridges, underpasses, and low-lying urban areas, compounded by the complex scenario of suspicious hazardous materials discovered on a Haihe River tour boat. 

Multiple rescue forces collaborated intensively, including Public Security, Fire Services, Transportation, Red Cross, Blue Sky Rescue, and Jinlv Haihe Cruise Company. The exercise covered six key disciplines: basic boat handling skills demonstration, capsized boat self-rescue, establishing video transmission links, isolated island rescue, underpass containment & rescue, and target vessel rescue.

hang Yue from the Public Security Administration Brigade (Special Police Corps) of Tianjin Municipal Public Security Bureau explained: "The flying lifeboat overcomes terrain limitations, rapidly reaching distressed individuals via the shortest direct path. Its front-mounted visual camera allows operators to detect targets from up to approximately 1,000 meters away. Combining flight capability with surface propulsion powered by twin propellers, it can drag victims to safety. With a maximum load capacity accommodating four adults weighing 75kg each, it's particularly suited for rescuing people in hard-to-reach locations like underpasses and bridges during flood seasons where conventional vessels cannot access."
