Skydiving at night, reconnaissance behind
enemy lines and camouflage on the ground. Such tasks are now being performed by
soldiers of the special forces of the
air defense forces in the far east. Trainings take place within the
framework of the started winter training
period.
The first group of paratroopers prepares
to board the Mi-8 helicopter. These are experienced special forces
soldiers. Each of them has at least 20
successful jumps behind their backs.
In the porthole there is a snow-covered
polygon area. There is a parachute
knapsack behind his back, a bag with
belay devices on his belt. Behin-months of grueling training and
all this for the sake of 15 seconds of
free fall and here is the most tense moment. Take a
deep breath jump confidently and go to
the sky. Without hesitation, the special forces
parachute from a 1000 meter height.
According to the training task, you need
to land in a small area behind the enemy
lines. The interval between jumps is no more
than five seconds. Otherwise, the landing area may stretch
for kilometers.
During contact with the
ground it is important to group
correctly so as not to injure the limbs. After that it remains only to fold the
parachute, disguise and prepare for the
march. during the jumps of the second landing
group private Nikita Mayor jumped for
the first time.
He had never experienced any brighter
emotions in his life. The young
paratrooper confesses that he hesitated
while leaving the helicopter, but they
still managed to overcome fear. All as
well my first jump, there are no words, my
colleagues began to leave, i had it too
shakes, shakes insanely admitted mayor.
Before boarding a helicopter the most
important task is to inspect and pack
the parachute. The fighters check the condition of the
stabilizing system, the serviceability of
the carbine and line fasteners. This is followed by the final inspection
of the parachute kit by the unit
commander.
The D-10 parachute can withstand a weight
of 140 kilograms. You can land with it from a height of up
to four kilometers. Quite weighty equipment but one of the
most reliable in the world.

district are opening the winter training
period today. Ahead of them jumping in conditions of
night visibility, reconnaissance in the
rear of the conditional enemy and
