From 27 to 29 November 2023, Artillery Units of the High Military Command of Interior and Islands conducted Anti-Aircraft Artillery Fire Training at the NATO Missile Firing Installation in Crete, which also involved observers from Germany.

In particular, fires were conducted by the OSA-AK and the man-portable MANPAD STINGER weapon systems.

The training’s objective was to familiarise the trainees with actions and procedures simulating the modern operational environment by conducting all types of Anti-Aircraft Artillery fires, thus gaining significant experience in the crewing of weapons systems and the technique, tactics, and observation of fires.

The activity included the implementation of all relevant support fire coordination procedures, achieving the greatest synergy possible of weapon systems with the Fire Direction Centres and the Artillery Unit radar systems.
