Excursion to the history
Special Forces GRU was formed and began its existence at the dawn of Soviet power.
This unit was created to combatNATO countries in the event of a nuclear attack. It consists of army special forces and special forces of the fleet. Its task was to attack strategically important enemy objects: command posts, ammunition depots, airfields, missile installations, naval bases. The fighters of the GRU special forces were involved in the war in Afghanistan in 1979-1989. From 1994 to 1996 the special forces of the GRU "Volkodavy" took part in the first Chechen campaign. And also in the operation in Dagestan (the second Chechen company). Nowadays, due to the fact that the information is classified, it is not possible to find out how many parts of this military special unit there are. Only the nine brigades "East" and "West" are known for certain. There is also the 45th reconnaissance regiment of the Airborne Forces, whose fighters undergo the same training as the special forces.
