Better to spend a couple of stages of "tank biathlon" in Donetsk and Lugansk regions, well, you can also in Odessa and Kharkov. Here the National Guards are doing things out of fear ...

Do not compare with any Western:

Yes, even Formula 1 seems like a sandbox game when there are TANKS here!
Aviadarts - combat aircraft.

The Russian people are warriors, therefore the competitions are appropriate!

PS It is necessary to come up with something for artillerymen and air defense officers. Only for Strategic Missile Forces - no need

And the equipment is in order and the personnel in the process of preparing for the competition better learn the skills of handling and applying complex equipment.
And the main thing is our, Russian innovation in army training. There is something to be proud of.

[xenod55]

How much iron trash remained from the previous power in the Crimea, for clarity, the power of our iron horses would put these old horses instead of plywood targets and a sub-caliber. That would be a sight.
A photo, so, by the way, and as a warning to some people across the ocean.

At the training ground of the Southern Military District in the Volgograd Region, tankers began to prepare for the district tank biathlon competitions. The 12 best tank crews and 6 crews of infantry fighting vehicles take part in the professional competition. In total, about 20 units of military equipment are involved in the events.

During the qualifying round, tank crews and combat crews carry out live firing with regular ammunition.

During the races, military personnel make marches, overcome land and water obstacles, hit three different types of targets at a distance of 900 to 2 meters, each of which has a specific munition — a guided projectile, a standard projectile and ammunition of the Kord heavy machine gun.

In the course of the competition, tankers will demonstrate not only marksmanship and overcoming obstacles, but they will also pass the standards for physical training, and will be tested to know the tactical and technical characteristics of their combat vehicles.

For the first time, two tank tracks with a length of 6,1 and 3 kilometers were equipped at the combined-arms training ground, where tests of crews of tanks and infantry fighting vehicles will be simultaneously conducted.

The third stage of the tank biathlon championship will last until mid-May. Winners will receive the right to represent the Southern Military District at the All-Army Competitions, which will be held at the Alabino training complex in the Moscow Region in June 2014, the press service of the Southern Military District reports.

It is time to spend it in the area of ​​the ditch, which dill dug.
I do not propose to fight, as well as to kill - but it would not hurt to touch.

[Mareman Vasilich]

The necessary thing. And in the army, everywhere, it would come in handy. The more exercises in the army, the better.

[qwert]

It would be nice to introduce an exercise at the international biathlon where you need to fluently shoot 15 shots. It would immediately become clear which is better: automatic charging or sweaty black.

[e_krendel]

and still shooting in a jump ...

It will be great to see !!!

The plot of the program "Vesti. Volgograd" on April 25, 2014. At the Prudboy training ground, the military competed in biathlon on tanks. This, unique for Russia, is a new type of army competition between tank crews, during which the skills of driver mechanics and marksmanship are tested. The BMP crews are participating in this competition for the first time.

[denchik1977]

If the tank biathlon competition is further developed, then with a high degree of certainty it will be possible to say that in real combat conditions our tankers will have real sports excitement in destroying the tanks of a potential enemy ...

[TurboSloN]

It's time for us to organize the International Tank Olympic Committee! Russia - go ahead !!!!!)))))

[Baikal]

Cool competition!
We are waiting for when it will go to the masses and the appearance of the corresponding tuning studio!

[albi77]

We watched, were sick, noted)))
One thing only - penalties for misses need to be increased, but the main thing for the tank crew to destroy the target ...
as well as an excellent innovation in the army and on television, too, by the way.

Prudby. Tank biathlon.

Thanks for the wonderful video, Sanya!

Especially for the "download".

Prudboy ... cottage of the 20-th brigade))). heh.

Just do not understand what they are chasing?
- and T-72B3 is present
- and the T-90 firing leads ...
The 20 is in service with the T-90, if I'm not mistaken.
And the guys from the Crimea will be difficult, they drove to the base simple T-72B this year ...)))

While watching the video, out of the corner of my ear I heard the familiar: "p-o-p-a-d-i ... p-o-p-a-d-i ... p-o-p-a-d-i" ... recently Sergey cvp67 recalled how this signal "For battle" is still feverish)))


Here he is better heard:

[jjj]

It’s going well, only the tower above the grass is visible. Cover with a camouflage net - you will accept for a bush. Yes, and the crew jumps on the tank without ladders

[Kair501]

Good day to everyone who knows how many t 72 b 3 have already arrived in units, just at the victory parade I was surprised to see them on Sakhalin

Quote: Kair501

who knows how many tons of 72 and 3 have already arrived in units, I was simply surprised at the victory parade to see them on Sakhalin

Vyacheslav, they come in battalion units. Several hundred cars have already been delivered to the RF Armed Forces in a few years.
And where did the T-72B3 come from on Sakhalin?
We had to ask the guys what team they were with ...)))

This year, guys in Yekaterinoslavka on the T-72B3 (who were left without their favorite T-80BV) train very hard from your BBO to biathlon, by the way, they promise a surprise - a female manicure crew. )))

Wah, there will be a circus for the "public", they love it.

[Anti-ukra]

Train, train and train again. It will be interesting to Pts to see how the Abrams and praise of the Leopards will look at the international ..... if they will actually participate there. As they usually get dirty and find a bunch of excuses ..... like they made a Russian carousel here ...

[zzzzzz]

there will be no arbams.
the Chinese will come with their tanks

[zzzzzz]

"The best Russian tankers will go to the international tournament in August, in which crews from 15 countries of the world will participate." - this will be a sight !!!!

[Armax]

The thing is certainly very useful. I myself served on the T-80 for a long time, truth, training: driving, shooting, and rarely underwater driving. Everyone at the same training grounds, any shooting, driving with my eyes closed. Now the training will become more versatile, new skills are always needed!

[Nikolay74]

So that's why the State Department is again yelling about the concentration of troops on the border with dill. We will soon be presented for military units outside the Urals

[jovanni]

Cool sport! It's time to submit an application to the IOC. For summer games. Exactly with medals we will!

[Sanreeder]

So what turns out the T72 - sports equipment? And in the Luhansk region, our athletes do not have such machines. Sports must be available!

[bender8282]

I don’t understand why they will not send some super modern modification of the t-90?

[suharev-52]

Therefore, they do not send "super modern" ones, because the main goal is not window dressing, but getting real skills on the type of equipment that is massively in the army. Sincerely.

[Hort]

at least they wrote on which channel you can watch

[Armax]

On the Zvezda channel, there will definitely be news, and how many will be shown ...

[Hort]

last year they showed it in full, but I don’t remember whether it was from Zvezda or some other

[dmitrij.blyuz]

Guys! There is no news about Ukraine. It seems that the news slipped up about the destruction of 2 armored personnel carriers and 2 trucks with ammunition by the militia. About 30-40 killed by the Ukrainian VS. I apologize that this is not the topic, but it is advisable to see real comments. If yes. If so, then really the southeast has risen. All-

Better not, it's hockey with sticks. And here it’s not just 6: 1, it will be abruptly!

For me - it's better to find out in this way who is better than in real hostilities ... In general, I would bet on Syrian tankmen.

I respect tankers, even somewhere I don’t envy much for the good, but it’s personal. Of course, competition between tank crews is a good thing, even the necessary one is advertising the army, etc. But there is such a question, but what about combat training? the principle of combat training-learns in conditions as close as possible to combat and acquire the skills that will be needed in the war. And here what? The finale in Alabino is generally a show of the purest water, obviously, propaganda, advertising, etc. But there’s another question there the crews are full-time or assemble from several, if not several, the principle of combat coordination is violated. Further, as we know, for all limits, including ammunition and fuel and lubricants. In this regard, the question is, what would prepare the best crew of the brigade , the districts clearly spend more ammunition and fuel and lubricants on their preparation, and from where it is taken more, if at the expense of other crews of the battalion, brigade it turns out to the detriment of the combat readiness of all other tank crews. If we assume that everything is approximately the same, then this Yes but not a show, but to put it mildly window dressing. In general, the fire minister loves these PR actions. And he is preparing for a war, the ghost of which, unfortunately, is approaching our country.

[Evgan]

So you can agree to the point that Olympic athletes are trained to the detriment of schoolchildren ...
