The Artillery Brigade consists of the Satakunta Artillery Regiment, the Reconnaissance Battallion, the Artillery School, and the Satakunta Military Band. Every year, some 1,600 conscripts are trained by the brigade. The training guns vary from 122 Mm light Howitzer s to 155 mm Cannon s and 122 mm multiple Rocket Launcher s, depending on the reserve units which the conscripts are trained for. The conscripts participate in several live-fire exercises in the nearby firing range at Pohjankangas , before the two- or three-week-long national live-fire artillery exercise held twice a year in Rovajärvi firing range in Lapland . The Artillery School provides University -level education for future artillery officers and continuing education for artillery regular personnel. EXTERNAL LINKS |
