"In accordance with the combat training plan, the calculations of the mobile coastal missile systems "Bastion" of the missile compound of the Pacific Fleet in Kamchatka went to the training ground to work out the tasks of defending the coast of the peninsula from the ships of a conditional enemy," the message says.
The calculations made a march from the point of permanent deployment to the designated area, worked out the standards for alerting launchers and organizing camouflage, and also performed algorithms for obtaining target designation and striking a landing party of ships of a conditional enemy with electronic (conditional) missile launches.
