Writes Denis Mokrushin:
In August this year, as in the mechanized infantry and armored brigades in the formation of a new organizational and staff unit - a company of snipers, instead of separate platoons and snipers single distributed motorized infantry their companies.
The 18th separate motorized rifle brigade (Chechnya), a company established snipers August 1, 2011, and is under development. Why have not yet formed? In the company of no one being driven forcibly taken only volunteers who have expressed themselves willing to serve, but the old part of the brigade platoon of snipers. The selection among the newcomers hard preference phlegmatic as a diligent and calm. Just busy when within five minutes you need to lie still with the set on top of the rifle to shoot sleeve, without dropping it, you can quickly weed out unsuitable soldiers.
Roth - a few dozen people in several platoons. The infantry platoon (in automotive applications) are given in the event of hostilities infantry battalion brigade, a special platoon (in armor) acts on individual plans. Main weapons company - rifles SVD, the SVD-S, additional weapons each is a rifle BCC "Vintorez." A special squad of the state has yet to be 12.7 mm caliber rifle (OSV-96), but not yet delivered.

It is also a legacy of the ad hoc group of snipers, which was created in the 42 th Division in late 2008 (10 warrant officer and 2), crossed rifle Steyr-Mannlicher SSG 04. This weapon is listed for people who have undergone three months of training under the guidance of instructors Solnechnogorsk School snipers . Old veteran Ensign says that because of this rifle he confidently hits the target at a distance of 800 meters, while the SVD of a defeat can be sure no further 400-500 meters.
While specialized training programs for companies not (it is still under development), training is conducted under the program of combat training, prepared for the sniper platoon brigade Solnechnogorsk. There are the backbone of the team, which is engaged in sniping for years, but most - beginners. The command of the brigade, using the specifics of the region, plans to raise to train personnel in the company as a professional instructors of the units of the FSB, performing tasks in the country during a business trip.
Now the soldiers are kind of KMB, is single training: tactics, fire, camouflage, individual zeroing weapons. Physical training can withstand not everyone, for example, the company forced marches every morning at 5 km. Even in the normal course of promotion to different standards practiced shooting tactics, preparation of engineering, topography. Like smiling, said one of the officers: "You can, of course, and right to, but because you can hook and do».
Firing Schedules not (such as: "Today from 15 to 16 and point"), it is determined by the unit commander. It is planned that the fire training should be at least 3-4 times a week with a large nastrelom.
Outfit promise to give, but so far its use - backpacks, mats, camouflage suits "Goblin" and "fright»
Range finders received standard army, which men do not think much, those who graduated from courses given Solnechnogorskoe better (unfortunately, did not ask the name). Weather stations were obtained on all staff. From navigation devices used Russian GPG / GLONASS navigators 'Grotto', giving an accuracy of 2 meters (GLONASS)
