Soldiers serving in T-72M Tank Battalion undergo training



Regular training for soldiers serving in the Army Tank Battalion, equipped with modernized T-72MS tanks, is underway on the training grounds in the wider region of Niš.
 
The training is intended for soldiers (class of September 2021) who are performing their voluntary military service and professional military drivers and T-72MS tank gunners, who are being trained to use this vehicle in defensive and offensive operations.  This phase of training, which is being conducted on the Rujnik training ground, focuses on practicing tactical procedures during combat operations in the face of the enemy, integrating fire and tactical action of all crew members. It also focuses on the preparation and carrying out of marches and reconnaissance.
 
Since T-72MS tanks were introduced in the Serbian Armed Forces’ armament, members of the Tank Battalion have undergone intensive training, and excellent tactical and fire skills, demonstrated at numerous daytime and night-time exercises, speak of the high quality of training and commitment of the professional staff.
