Ocean 2024 CPX: Pacific Fleet's naval aviation masters evasive manoeuvre
11.09.2024
In Kamchatka, during the Ocean 2024 CPX, pilots of the separate mixed aviation regiment practised an evasive manoeuvre amid a mock air attack.
According to the scenario, the air defence unit was informed that the mock enemy was about to launch a massive missile and bombing raid on the home airfield.
The aircraft made sorties to the alert areas. Some combat vehicles during the exercise were transferred to operational airfields, where the pilots prepared to counter the 'adversary'.
According the training plan of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, formations and units of the Russian Navy started taking part in the Ocean 2024 strategic command post exercise, which will last until 16 September 2024. The exercise, which is one of the most important operational and combat training events of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in 2024, is to be conducted in a bilateral format under the overall command of Admiral Aleksandr Moiseyev, the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy.
More than 400 warships, submarines and support vessels, over 120 naval aircraft, some 7,000 units of weaponry, military and special hardware, and more than 90,000 personnel participate in the drills, which take place in the waters of the Pacific and Arctic oceans, Mediterranean, Caspian, and Baltic seas.
The Ocean 2024 strategic command post exercise is aimed at checking the readiness of the senior staff of the Russian Navy to operate all-arms groups of forces in the areas of responsibility, to solve non-standard operational tasks, to make full use of high-precision weapons, advanced and modern weapons and military hardware in the practical part of the exercise, and to expand cooperation with the navies of partner countries to perform joint maritime missions.
