12:48, 11 Nov 2014
The Russian military have started drills at the Kamkhud alpine
training facility in Armenia that should see personnel learning to
operate unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), RIA Novosti reports quoting
the press service of the Southern Military District
"During theory classes commanding officers will study new methods of
training the staff in a mountainous area. They will practice operating
Granat, Leer and Zastava UAVs at different altitudes and speed, in
the day and at night, measuring coordinates and targeting gunfire,"
the statement said.
According to the South Military District, officers will also take
part in detecting, tracking and destroying a simulated enemy with the
help of portable computers. More than 400 commanders are involved in
the trainings.
Back in August, Russian military personnel participated in a similar
exercise to improve their UAV control skills. The staff was instructed
on how to operate Navodchik-2, Forpost, Orlan-10 and Zastava UAVs.
During the August drills, they were trained to operate drones to carry
out reconnaissance missions during tactical maneuvers and long marches.
