The training was designed to enhance the personnel’s capabilities to plan and execute combat search and rescue missions, with particular emphasis on the effective coordination and synchronization of ground teams and helicopter crews.
The training included practical exercises focused on the search for, location and extraction of personnel, the application of securing and extraction techniques, and the preparation and helicopter evacuation of casualties.
