Military aviation and drone training in Serbia and Croatia

Overview

Military training activities in Serbia and Croatia have expanded from specialized flight maneuvers to unmanned aerial systems.

In late October, Serbian cadets conducted helicopter maneuvers using “Gazelle” aircraft at the Batajnica airbase. Concurrently, pilots from Croatia, Hungary, Bulgaria, and Slovenia participated in special air operations training in Zemunik, Croatia, utilizing Black Hawks, Cougars, and Eurocopters under NATO instruction.

By early November, training focus shifted toward drone operations. The Croatian military completed an international program for FPV drone operators in Pula and Udbina, instructing Slovenian personnel in technical tactics and intelligence analysis. Meanwhile, Serbian military police units conducted training at the Rujnik complex near Niš, focusing on the use of remotely piloted aircraft for reconnaissance, thermal imaging, and battlefield data integration.
