“”The unit will be composed of 12 F-16 planes and will transport 300 soldiers”

Russia had begun large-scale air defense drills, some 280 miles east of the Ukrainian border; 3,500 troops and over 1,000 units of military hardware for about a month. The exercise will culminate with live-firing drills, involving S-300, Buk-M1 and other air defense systems. “It is for the first time that all air defense units from the district, including coastal defenses of the Northern Fleet, have gathered in one place,” said the district’s spokesman, Col. Oleg Kochetkov.
