    Multinational communication of communication troops Combined
    Endeavor-2008 continue on military base Aulenbach of
    Bundeswehr. Representatives of 38 countries participate in the current
    exercises that are traditionally organized in the spirit of NATO
    Partnership for Peace program. Representatives of the armed forces of
    Ukraine take part in exercises of Combined Endeavor series for the
    tenth time.

    The combined Ukrainian unit headed by Colonel German Kachan, deputy
    director of the department for development of communication and
    automation of the Defense Ministry of Ukraine, for the second time
    included 25 officers from communication troops and leading research
    and educational institutions.

    The main task set for Ukrainian servicemen during the exercises is the
    improvement of interaction of the command bodies, communication and
    information systems of the armed forces of Ukraine with similar
    systems of the united armed forces of NATO for the purpose of
    provision of fulfillment of common tasks in the course of military
    exercises, peacekeeping operations and crisis situations.

    All countries participating in the exercises are divided into five
    regional groups. The Ukrainian delegation was included into regional
    group B. It fulfills functions of leader among the national units of
    communication troops from Albania, Afghanistan, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan,
    Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as communication unit of multinational
    brigade SEA BREESE from countries of Southeastern Europe, reports the
    press service of the Defense Ministry of Ukraine.

    In the course of the first days of the exercises, the troops worked
    out the deployment of equipment and its instillation, arrangement of
    cables inside of nodes and network cables and establishment of
    communication. Already at this stage, Ukraine manifested itself not as
    a formal but as a real leader of the group. Ukrainian Lieutenant
    Colonel Andrei Bilovitsky and Senior Lieutenant Vadim Kartavikh
    provided efficient assistance to their colleagues from Armenia and SEA
    BREESE brigade in tuning of equipment.

    After the official ceremony of beginning Combined Endeavor-2008 on May
    1, participants of the exercises started the implementation of
    preplanned schemes for the organization of communication and passing
    of tests. During passing of tests Ukrainian lieutenant colonels Victor
    Bozhko and Valery Pravilo and Captain Andrei Khodakivsky demonstrated
    a high professional level, which enabled them to receive the highest
    marks for nine tests - communication seances.

    Ukrainian communication officers work in the sections of data
    transmission, switchboard systems, DNS and networks of test, video
    conference communication, information systems and safety of
    information. The overwhelming majority of the telecommunication
    equipment used by representatives of the Ukrainian armed forces during
    the exercises is made by Odessa-based Telecard-Pribor. Part of these
    systems have already been adopted and are being supplied to the
    communication troops of Ukraine. The other systems are at the stage of
    development and improvement. That is why operational tests during such
    exercises as Combined Endeavor-2008 provide an opportunity of
    comprehensive check of the newest equipment for compliance with
    declared characteristics.

    Combined Endeavor-2008 exercises will last until May 17.
