Today we’ll trip to the firing ground near the village of Sernovodskoe, the Chechen Republic. Here maneuvering retreats were practiced. This is a tactic that allows to retreat from numerous enemy forces, minimize losses and drain enemy’s troops.

At the observation post everydody is busy with his own work: someone counts something, someone commands and somebody just looks into the distance.



These men coordinate the departure of equipment from positions.

The machinery has gone in retreat.

Engines that were previously covered under camouflage is now uncovered.

The quickly retreating MT-LB rushes beside.

Impressive explosions.

And now other equipment begins to uncover itself for relocation.

As far as it is not just a retreat, but a maneuverable retreat, then departing troops not just line up in convoy and speed away into the deep rear, they also move in zigzags, hide behind high natural objects, like hills and trees, and fire on the advancing enemy.

Fighters of a temporary command post also get into tanks with the camouflage net.

A roadblock on the way to the rear.

The column of machinery comes up to the place of a next defensive position.

In the second section of the firing ground there is not a permanent command and observation post.

Trainings are held for the full program : all machines are involved in action.

A сommand and observation post is set for 10-15 minutes.

Military equipment is camouflaged again.

Some units, for example, artillery ones, have small separate command and observation posts, camouflaged in the area.

Boxes of shells.

Machinery and fighters occupy new positions.

Soldiers are ready for a battle.

Now there is no need for camouflage as the enemy has already seen the direction of fire.

Observers notice the enemy and make three warning green shots.

Smokescreen.

Dry grass begins to burn.

Apparently after such retreat actions, enemy troops have great losses.
