Army reconnaissance units undergo summer training cycle



A part of the Army reconnaissance units based in Nis have begun conducting planned training in summer conditions.

The training process in these formations is complex and challenging in order for each member of the unit to learn how to survive in the wild, defend themselves and defeat the enemy, overcome a water obstacle and collect information of importance for the superior command.
 
In the first part of the summer training, which is currently underway, the scouts acquire and improve their skills in knife and axe wielding and master techniques for protection against cold weapons and firearms. This boosts self-confidence and builds collective spirit, in preparation for more complex training contents for the execution of tasks in the depths of enemy forces.

The reconnaissance units will then undergo training in swimming, independent nutrition and wilderness survival, training in overcoming water obstacles using organic and improvised watercraft, and solving tactical tasks in various environments. In the final part, a tactical exercise will be conducted, within which the capabilities of scouts and units for the execution of assigned tasks will be evaluated.
 
The training of the Serbian Armed Forces reconnaissance units is carried out throughout the year in various terrains and in all conditions in which their engagement can be expected, which ensures a high level of competence of these units for the execution of tasks of providing intelligence to forces in operations.
