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.
