Current Aspects of the Combat Training of Soviet National Air Defense Troops.

Abstract

This study examines some current aspects of Soviet National Air Defense combat training. Emphasis was given to those combat training practices which received considerable attention in the source material. Some special attention was also given to those articles written by general officers who presumably hold responsible positions in National Air Defense organizations. There are some apparent differences between Soviet combat training practices and those of the United States. Furthermore, despite some open criticism of particular situations and combat training practices, Soviet commentators on air defense combat training appear to be convinced that Soviet air defense specialists are prepared to fight effectively under the complex conditions of modern warfare.
