A battalion-level drill with live firing, involving over 500 servicemen
and about 150 pieces of military hardware, is to be held at the 102nd
Russian military base in Armenia.
The drill is part of the command-post exercise for the 102nd military
base, spokesman for the Southern Military District Col. Igor Gorbul
told Interfax-AVN on Monday.
The military base's control bodies, the heads of arms and services,
the battalion and squadron staffs, and the commanders of individual
companies will take part in the drill. "The commanders and the
staffs will fulfill combat training missions to perfect control
skills in conditions of a training combat, to organize and maintain
interoperability between units of interacting arms and services,
in assessing the situation and in rebuffing the conditional enemy's
attacks. The drill will simulate real combat conditions to the
maximum," Gorbul said.
At the initial stage of the command-post exercise, all units were
put into a state of high alert and they advanced from their base to
the assembly ground, from where they will march to the scene of the
exercise, the Alagyaz training center, he said.
"The troops will conduct a battalion-level drill with live firing,
which will involve over 500 servicemen and about 150 pieces of military
hardware," he said.
