In the course of practical actions, after the combat crew repulsed the first massive air strike of the notional enemy, the subunits in the column made a march from their permanent deployment points to new positional areas. The manoeuvre was carried out in order to prevent the destruction of the regiment’s forces revealed during the repulsion of a massive air strike. During the march, the personnel of the security and defence unit repulsed an attack by a notional sabotage and reconnaissance group that suddenly attacked from a forest, and also overcame an infected area in chemical defence equipment. Upon arrival in the new positional area, the personnel dispersed and took up combat duty in the air defence.
