Basics of Radio Communication 

Radio Communication is a training program which teaches to 1) work with technical means of radio communication and radio monitoring, 2) organize communication in the unit, 3) ensure the security of information exchange, 4) set up and maintain the work of radio monitoring posts of the enemy’s communication networks, minimizing risks for the personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. 


We train communication specialists and radio monitoring operators to independently deploy communication systems of various command levels, organize and ensure the operation of radio monitoring posts, and eliminate problems that appear when deploying these systems. The main principle of working with radio equipment and technical means of communication and network monitoring is strict adherence to safety rules by soldiers when they perform the tasks. We teach trainees to  reduce the risks of enemy identifying friendly positions by understanding the principles of signal intelligence and electronic warfare, as well as the basics of safe organization of communication in units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
