Three of them are of republican level (operational-tactical trainings "Kaisar-2016", "Kaisar-2021", "Alan-2022").
Active phase of training takes place on October 3-7, during which the headquarters will work out algorithms of decisions when performing a set of tasks of a single group of forces against the background of the created and developing situation, which will allow to achieve coordinated action of military authorities in the organization of joint operation.
