Members of Stefanik Company, from the Slovakian contingent of eFP BG LVA continue their defensive preparations for Exercise NAMEJS in the Camp Ādaži Training Area, Latvia, August 2018
Slovaks look very poorly equipped. Most of the light arms are ancient. These Vz-58s look like they could be grandfathers in terms of age to the soldiers who carry them.
Beautiful Skorpion! i like that machine pistol!
Regarding the age of weapons, I say to you, that the state of these weapons speaks very well of the armourers that maintain them and of the care that their operators give them.

Maybe simply - rationally approaching a modest budget - prefer to spend money on the purchase of helicopters, fighters and modernization of artillery? But indeed - such equipment of the subdivisions at the foreign mission indicates that in the divisions in the country is "not very cheerful."
The 9M113 Konkurs (Russian: 9М113 «Конкурс»; English: "Contest"; NATO reporting nameAT-5 Spandrel) is a SovietSACLOSwire-guidedanti-tank missile.
A development of the 9K111 Fagot with greater firepower, the 9M113 Konkurs can use the same launchers and is very similar visually, distinguishable only by a slight bulge towards the end of the Konkurs' missile tube.
