Specialists of the 10th separate repair and evacuation regiment restore damaged samples of military equipment as soon as possible and return it to the front line. This is what the newspaper Krasnaya Zvezda writes about.
The workshops are located on the outskirts of one of the Crimean villages. Tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers and armored vehicles, artillery guns and multiple rocket launchers, wheeled and tracked samples of weapons and special equipment are repaired here. According to experts, it takes up to five days to recover, depending on the complexity, on average - two to three days. From 40 to 50 units of any equipment involved in a special military operation are returned to the front line.
- We mainly carry out complex repairs, our colleagues from repair and restoration units working closer to the front edge perfectly cope with simpler breakdowns, - said the commander of the repair and restoration unit, Colonel Igor Rudenko.
The tactical group is evacuating equipment and weapons with complex malfunctions from the combat zone to the recovery area. Here, in most cases, malfunctions are eliminated that relate to the replacement of units and assemblies. Specialists dismantle damaged blocks and install new ones.
There are workshops for various purposes - MTO-UB, MTO-AM, MRS-BT and others. According to the head of the armored service of the Southern Military District, Colonel Alexander Vasiliev, it is possible to restore over 95 percent of all incoming samples of weapons and equipment, the rest is delivered for repair to the enterprises of the military industry.
Captured equipment also arrives in the recovery area. As a rule, these are outdated samples, but there is a stock of suitable components and aggregates in Russian warehouses. Therefore, there are no problems with the repair either. After that, weapons and military equipment are transferred to the units of the People's militia of the DPR and LPR.
