From the message press service ZVO:
Around 50, fighter pilots will improve their skills in detecting aerial targets, intercepting and hitting them, both during the day and at night. In this case, they will have to perform one of the most difficult exercises, when the leading aviation unit launches a light bomb that illuminates the ground surface, and its followers must destroy all the detected targets. Air targets will be launched from a height of more than 10 thousand meters from Su-27 aircraft equipped with special equipment for the suspension of bomb armament. Aerial bombs in the form of a garland with luminous elements will be used as air targets.
