    Yerevan /Mediamax/. Large-scale command-staff exercises are conducted
    at the 102nd Russian base in Armenia, which will last until the end
    of the week.

    As the press-service of the Southern Military District of Russian
    Armed Forces told Mediamax, over 200 units of military equipment and
    600 servicemen take part in the exercises.

    At the training complexes in Alagyaz and Kamhud tanks, armored infantry
    fighting vehicles, armored troop carriers and artillery were set in
    motion in the integrated exercises.

    Buk-M1-2 and S-300V missile systems as well as MiG-29 airplanes will
    support the exercises.

    Squadrons of unmanned aviation vehicles are also used in the exercises.

    "Such exercises are held twice a year and aim to prepare all
    categories of Russian servicemen performing their military service
    outside of the Russian Federation and to set up a real system ensuring
    Armenia's security within Collective Security Agreement", reported
    the press-service of the Southern Military District.
