Russia and Belarus will continue their joint exercises, which are intended to boost the combat readiness of their militaries, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Monday in Minsk, during a press conference with his counterpart, Alexander Lukashenko.
The Russian president revealed that Moscow and Minsk had already activated an integrated air defense and warning system, and that Russia might soon train pilots from Belarus on airplanes modified to use “special ammunition.”
The two members of the Union State will “continue the practice of regular joint exercises” and other measures designed to increase military readiness, Putin said.
“Joint military planning is ongoing, within the framework of implementing the common military doctrine of Russia and Belarus,” Putin said. The joint regional grouping – a formation that includes soldiers from both countries, stood up – is carrying out exercises to further promote combat readiness, he added.
In addition to deepening military ties with Russia within the Union State, Belarus will take over the rotating presidency of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) in January. The Russian-led military bloc also includes Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan.
Putin and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov arrived in Minsk on Monday for a series of talks with their Belarusian counterparts regarding economic, military and energy cooperation.
This gives me a sense of déja vu. I wonder why?

Footage of the work of Russian servicemen with the Grad-P missile launcher. The 9P132 rocket launcher was launched in 1966, Grad-P was created in just 10 days at the request of the Vietnamese partisans. The installation is actually a single-barreled analogue of the Grad MLRS and is intended for guerrilla warfare. The launch tube of the installation is mounted on a tripod, it can be assembled and disassembled in 2.5 minutes and easily hidden in the forest or even buried in the ground. The launch of a 122 mm 9M 22M rocket, which is also collapsible, is carried out using a sealed remote control with a cable 20 meters long. If necessary, the 9P132 installation can launch standard Grad MLRS shells. The Grad-P system has long been discontinued, but is still in service with a number of countries. Calculation of the installation - 5 people. The range of missiles is 10800 meters.

as far as I was told by people who know that there would be more damage to the grass or he could stick into the ground with more damage.
I also read somewhere that Shoigu proposed reforming the officer corps as well as the military doctorate itself. It is worth remembering that Shoigu reversed some of Serdyukov's reforms because of the dissatisfaction of the military leadership at the time.
Their ability to self introspect acknowledge their shortcomings and learn lessons is very commendable. They are determined to fix their deficiencies and I read they underestimated the utility of drones and military recon satellites.
Expect a better Russian army in 2023
