Fighter-Bomber Squadron conducts flight training



Personnel from the fighter-bomber squadron of the 98th Air Brigade, stationed at the Morava military air base near Kraljevo, are conducting intensive flight training using Orao attack aircraft.
   The training aims to maintain and further improve the proficiency of flight and technical personnel in executing assigned missions, primarily providing aerial fire support to evolution units during Serbian Armed Forces operations.
 
During flight operations, pilots are practising various flight elements and tactical manoeuvres essential for the safe and successful execution of missions, with the level of complexity gradually increasing. The emphasis at this stage is on maintaining proficiency and the capability to fly in diverse weather conditions, both during the day and at night.
   For pilots, every flight offers an opportunity to enhance their knowledge and skills through practical experience, analyse completed missions, and address any shortcomings identified during the flight. In addition to routine training, this enables pilots to attain higher levels of professional and combat readiness.
 
Training for aviation technical personnel is being conducted alongside flight operations. Technicians of all specialties are participating in preparing aircraft for flight and inspecting them after missions. Their work involves checking the airworthiness of engines, electrical systems, instruments, armament, and other systems critical to the safe and efficient operation of the aircraft.
   Intensive squadron training will continue in the coming period. It will further enhance the unit’s combat readiness and build trust between pilots and technicians, who work closely together to carry out their assigned missions.
