GLONASS provides an alternative to Global Positioning System (GPS) and is the second alternative navigational system in operation with global coverage and of comparable precision. All combined-arms and special vehicles are equipped with transmitters, which are designed to work more than 30,000 hours. The special complex exercise is held in 6 districts of the Russian Federation. Six thousand servicemen and up to 750,000 pieces of military hardware are involved in the event.
