In course of the Zapad 2017 strategic exercise, the crews of Su-24 bombers carried out precision bombing targeting mock enemy’s command posts, personnel and combat hardware at the airfield in the Kaliningrad region. The bombers performed the task at altitudes ranging from 200 m up to 2 km.

All the actions were monitored by objective control means mounted on the combat vehicles as well as on the ground in the exercise area.

Besides bombing, the crews practised combat maneuvering and air defence suppression.
