The 250th Air Defense Missile Brigade ((セルビア語:250. ракетна бригада ПВО / ''250. raketna brigada PVO'')) is a joint tactical unit of Serbian Air Force and Air Defense. It consists of three rocket missile air defense battalions, three self-propelled rocket missile air defense battalions and a command company. The command of the brigade is based at "Banjica" military barracks, located in Banjica, a suburb of Belgrade. Three "Neva" battalions are deployed around Belgrade, first one at Jakovo, second one at Zuce, and another one at Batajnica Air Base, while three "Kub-M" battalions are deployed near the towns of Niš, Novi Sad and Kragujevac. The Brigade was formed during the existence of Yugoslavia, serving in the militaries of both the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Following the dissolution of Yugoslavia, it continued to serve in the military of Serbia. During the 1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, the Brigade shot down an F-117 Nighthawk, believed to be the first shootdown of a stealth aircraft, and the only loss of an F-117 in combat. ==History== The 250th Air Defense Missile Brigade history goes back to November 25, 1962, when 250th Air Defense Missile Regiment (250. raketni puk PVO, 250. rp PVO) of JRV i PVO was established in Belgrade with the task of defending that city, which was at that time the capital of Communist-controlled Yugoslavia. Between 1962 and 1980, the 250th Air Defense Missile Regiment was armed with S-75 Dvina (NATO designation: SA-2 Guideline) high-level air defense system and its structure was composed of four rocket and one rocket-technical battalions. In 1966 1st and 2nd Missile battalions, rocket-technical battalions and part of regiments command were sent to Soviet Union, rocket-polygon for missile shooting of PVO units ''"Ashuluk"'' near Astrakhan. The shooting was done on September 30. This task was successfully accomplished. The 250th Air Defense Missile Regiment international military public represented itself in the best possible way, and in the beginning of October Regiment returned from the USSR. This was the first time that a Yugoslav People's Army unit went abroad for its task execution, so the preparation for shooting is dedicated to the special attention.〔(''250. РАКЕТНА БРИГАДА ПВО - Јунаци остају јунаци'', Одбрана број 4 - 250th air defense missile brigade Heroes remain heroes, Odbrana magazine no.4 )〕 The 250th Air Defense Missile Regiment changed its name to 250th Air Defense Missile Brigade in 1980 as a result of its expansion with four rocket and one rocket-technical battalions of the S-125M Neva-M (SA-3 Goa) medium-level air defense system. The next evolution in the structure of the 250th Air Defense Missile Brigade took place in 1992 when that unit acquired the 350th Air Defense Missile Regiment (350. raketni puk PVO, 350. rp PVO) that regiment being armed with S-125M Neva-M has been pulled off from Slovenia following that country declaration for independence from the rest of Yugoslavia. This change finally initiated the long-waited retirement of the Dvina rocket system from the structure of the 250th Air Defense Missile Brigade. When JNA was officially dissolved in May 1992, the unit joined the newly formed Military of Federal Republic of Yugoslavia as part of Air Defense Corps of FRY Air Force and Air Defense. In period from 1994 to 1996 missile battalion armed with S-75 Dvina air defense system were disband. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「250th Air Defense Missile Brigade」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
