In the area of the Lyaur training ground in Tajikistan, the crews of the aviation group of the 201st military base of the Russian Federation provided air support to the advancing motorized rifle units during flight and tactical exercises.
Mi-24P attack helicopter crews conducted aerial reconnaissance of the area. They provided safe movement of columns of military equipment. The helicopter pilots worked out anti-ambush actions, as well as the procedure for interacting with control points and aircraft controllers. The pilots performed air support maneuvers of the battalion tactical group, blocking and launching a missile attack on the main ground forces of the mock enemy.

During the exercise, flights at extremely low altitudes were practiced. This allows the most effective use of army aviation in mountainous areas and counteract mock illegal armed groups that are armed with portable anti-aircraft missile systems.

The two-day tactical flight exercises took place as part of a control check of the units of the military base. About 500 military personnel and more than 100 units of weapons and military equipment were involved in the exercise.
