The Eastern Military District's servicemen of the Joint Group of Forces and the Armed Forces of Mongolia determined the routes of advance according to the special features of the terrain at a training ground as well as honed on the organisation of communication and interaction.
The Joint Staff agreed on common command signal for both sides.
Motorised rifle units trained a joint offensive with deployment to the combat line at a specified speed of combat vehicles.
'For the first time, Russian-Mongol exercises had FPV drones employed. The servicemen of both sides are acting cohesively and in an orderly manner,' said Task Force Executive Officer Adam Matsiyev.
