Subscribe
Combat crews of the Army Corps of the Baltic Fleet have conducted training launches with Iskander-M missile systems, the Russian Defense Ministry has said.
"After receiving coordinates, Iskander-M missile systems destroyed command posts and satellite communication nodes of the mock enemy and conducted training (electronic) launches of missiles," the report said.
Missile operators also performed tasks such as changing launch positions, repulsing an attack by a sabotage and reconnaissance group by the mock enemy, and camouflaging the launchers. Previously, Iskander-M drills in the Kaliningrad region took place in mid-August.
