The Russian Ministry of Defence published an amazing footage of the massive Russian airborne troops military drills that took place earlier this week.
The large-scale military exercise took place at proving grounds (polygons) in four regions of the Russian Federation: near the Ivanovo and Kostroma Oblasts, as well as near the cities of Yaroslavl and Nizhny Novgorod.
The exercise involved a total of 2,500 Airborne troops, more than 300 vehicles and over 20 aircraft, including planes and helicopters, the Military of Defence website noted.
The drills reportedly involved a wide spectrum of scenarios, from repelling an all-out attack to capturing terrorist positions with civilian hostages.
