infantry fortified regiment, a tank company, antiaircraft means, an
intelligence group, as well as four SU-25 planes, four MI-24 and two
MI-8 helicopters took part in the event from the Armenian side. The
Russian party was represented by a fortified infantry battalion, a tank
company, S-300 antiaircraft missile complex and four MIG-29 planes. The
personnel of both parties taking part in the exercises numbered 1307
servicemen, while the equipment totaled 294 units. The script of the
exercises provides for repulsing an attack of a conditional adversary

during which a possible act of terrorism by the conditional adversary
was prevented, reported IA Regnum.
