“Su-30SM aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces arrived in Baranovichi airfield in Brest region for the creation of a joint training air force and air defense center of Belarus and Russia,” it said.

On August 28, Russian antiaircraft missile units arrived in Grodno to promote the creation of the center. The defense ministers of both countries agreed to create three joint centers during negotiations in Moscow on March 5. They will operate in Nizhny Novgorod and Kaliningrad regions and in Grodno in Belarus.

Minsk believes that the center’s work will help considerably raise the level of specialist training and train units of both the Air Force and air defense forces of Belarus and the Aerospace Force of Russia and strengthen the practical component of developing the Russia-Belarus Union State’s joint regional air defense system. 

"A joint combat training center for the Air Force and air defense forces is intended to be set up on the territory of the Republic of Belarus. The center will be used as the base to organize the joint training of the crews of Su-30SM aircraft, train Belarusian specialists in operating advanced surface-to-air missile systems operational in the Russian Armed Forces and also to jointly accomplish combat training tasks," the Belarussian Defense Ministry previously said in its Telegram channel.
