In the Year of Military Excellence, Belarusian servicemen are not slowing down at the training ranges. New recruits are mastering their specialities, while experienced officers are helping them to deepen their competences. Thus, at one of the firing ranges near Minsk, the servicemen are honing their skills in small arms, hand and machine-grenade launchers. The squads hit mock-ups of vehicles and infantry of the conditional enemy from different distances and with different types of weapons. In addition to firearms training, servicemen train in tactical and medical training. Systematic training increases the level of knowledge of the personnel and teaches them to act quickly when practising scenarios that are as close as possible to real combat conditions.
