The last live fire exercise<br />

involving missiles was conducted<br />

by selected personnel<br />

of the air defence units under the<br />

SVK Air Force on 8 November 2011. The<br />

exercise, dubbed Sky Guard 2011, was the<br />

culmination of a two-week sustainment<br />

exercise undertaken by personnel from<br />

the 2nd Igla Fire Battery. It was held at<br />

the Záhorie Military Technical Institute,<br />

although the main part of the exercise<br />

unfolded at the Kolíňanský Vrch training<br />

area, with theoretical training and professional<br />

preparation of artillerymen and security<br />

officers.<br />

For economic reasons, personnel from the<br />

Igla Firing Battery operated the outdated<br />

9K32M Strela-2M systems (NATO reporting<br />

name: SA-7 GRAIL) during the exercise.<br />

This was a money-saving measure,<br />

because the unit’s main weapon system<br />

– the 9K38 Igla (NATO reporting name:<br />

Grouse) system – was not actually employed.<br />

This also saved financial resources<br />

in another area: the obsolete systems are<br />

used for training and, therefore, needn’t<br />

be delaborated.<br />

During what was the culmination of the<br />

sustainment exercise 26 professional soldiers<br />

(24 servicemen and 2 women), led by<br />

the Nitra Air Defence Brigade Commander<br />

Col. Vladimír Kováč, carried out live firing<br />

of a total of 30 missiles at the VTSÚ<br />

Záhorie firing range. The core of the unit<br />

formation was built around members of<br />

the 2nd Igla Air Defence Battery, supplemented<br />

by members of the 1st Igla Air<br />

Defence Battery, who had not been able<br />

to participate in the live fire exercise of<br />

their battery in the spring of 2011. One<br />

missile firing was rated as “good”, four as<br />

“very good” and the rest as “excellent”. All<br />

the missiles operated in accordance with<br />

the technical procedures and the overall<br />

rating of Exercise Sky Guard 2011 was<br />

excellent.<br />
