More hereOn November 26, a meeting was held in Odessa between representatives of the Ukrainian Navy Command, UK operation ORBITAL and Canadian operation UNIFIER. The Ukrainian side was represented by a delegation led by the Lieutenant Commander Kostiantyn Plakhotniuk.
The purpose of the visit was to discuss criteria for the training of the Ukrainian Navy personnel, as well as the directions of further assistance by the instructors from UK and Canada.
— We are constantly improving our professional skills, and navigation is one of the most important components for the safe use of ships. The experience of our foreign partners is very important for us. In addition, logistical planning courses are an area in which we do not have much experience in organizing NATO standards planning, so assistance in this regard will be very useful for us, " noted Lieutenant Commander Konstiantyn Plakhotniuk.
During the event, representatives of the operations ORBITAL and UNIFIER discussed the main areas of bilateral cooperation and the criteria for further training of the Ukrainian Navy personnel. In general, the visit will last for five days ...
More hereScientific and methodological training according to the program of international military cooperation within operation “ORBITAL” took place in the Ukrainian Navy Command. Classes were held in two groups. The first was to study logistics, and the second was to conduct practical navigation lessons directly on the navigation bridge of the frigate Hetman Sahaidachnyi. During the practical training, the senior assistant commander of the frigate briefed on how the navigation service on the ship is organized and how to model combat situations during the training of the personnel.
Our foreign colleagues spoke about peculiarities of the management and logistics structure of the Navies of the United Kingdom and Canada.
— Three areas of cooperation with our international partners have already been agreed. These are the training of the Navy Command for planning C2 and logistics process, and for naval personnel — the organization of navigation courses. The training is based on standards that are effectively used in NATO member states. The experience of our partners is especially important and relevant today, as the main task of the Ukrainian Navy is to prevent the military aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine in the waters of the Black and Azov Seas, — noted a representative of the Naval Command of the Ukrainian Navy.
