Ukraine updates basic training standard with FPV counter-training via lasertag

Ukraine’s Ground Forces introduced an updated 51-day basic combined-arms training program across six training centers, emphasizing small-unit tactics, progressive live-fire complexity, and expanded pre-hospital care. A notable new element is training recruits to counter enemy FPV drones using a “lasertag” laser simulation system that imitates drone attacks, plus optional pre-specialization tracks (e.g., small tactical group commander).
