Armed forces structure
general situation
Starting from 1988, the Mongolian Air Force continued to be established according to the Soviet model, and a large number of personnel and combat troops were reduced. From three active combat groups and transport support forces, it has been reduced to the present: 1 combat group, 1 combat squadron, 2 transport squadrons, 1 helicopter squadron, 1 training troops. The Mongolian navy is a naval force under the Mongolian government and the smallest naval force among the few countries with inland navies in the world.
Modern Mongolia didn't have its first ship until 1930 to transport oil in Kusugur Lake. To this end, Mongolia set up a navy to defend oil transportation. The ship was named sukhbaatar in memory of Damuddin sukhbaatar, the most important figure in Mongolian independence struggle. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Lake Kusugur was a famous tourist attraction in Mongolia, so there was no pollution. In order to protect the environment, Mongolia stopped transporting oil by oil. Since 200 1, an old Russian tugboat named "sukhbaatar" has been put into use with seven crew members. By the end of 20 10, all mongolia navy's possessions included 3 ships, 2 cannons, 1/kloc-0 engine and 7 crew members. Of the three ships, only the tugboat "sukhbaatar" can be launched to perform tasks in the area of Lake Kusugur.
Sukhbaatar, an old tugboat, is anchored at Lake Kusugur, which is 2000 kilometers away from the nearest sea. Bart Bayan is the captain of the sukhbaatar. Due to the financial crisis, the Mongolian government privatized the navy in 1997, so the sukhbaatar had to rely on commercial activities such as transporting local wool, leather or other goods to Russia for sale to supplement the daily operation of the ship. Apart from transporting goods, mongolia navy has no military action on weekdays.
