All the members of the 63rd Parachute Brigade are undergoing continual training, they are able to do that because they have enough aircraft that they can use, they have state-of-the-art equipment, the most modern parachutes that can be found on the market. Everything that can be bought is insufficient and inexpensive when you see what tasks our people perform and how well trained they are, how ready and capable of performing any task that is set before them.
