While it suffers from the same historical inaccuracy, these companies are a little more respectable in the PACT nations with their 4+ skill. The only way that the Afghansty veterans are any better, is their RPG-18s and 4s for Assault. You may not be transporting them using your hinds, but they are a cheap way to bring small groups of infantry that you can use on the defensive.

	The East Germans did not maintain an extensive airborne force, focusing on conventional armoured warfare instead. They did maintain a battalion, later expanded to a regiment, of airborne/air assault troops in Luftsturmregiment 40 (40th Air Assault Regiment) but functioned as a special forces type unit rather than frontline troops jumping from planes. Similar to East Germany, the Czechs and Poles operated their own volunteer-only airborne units as the army's spearhead. What their Hind landing company represents is anyone’s guess: line infantry trained for operations in mechanized vehicles are NOT qualified for heliborne operations, and special forces are rarely rubbish enough to be totally indistinguishable from regular infantry.

	Similarly, the Polish and Czechs were famous for the superior training of their airborne forces: the bulk of the conscript force would be send into the motor-rifle divisions as undertrained cannon fodder, but the Czech Vysadkari and Poland’s Air Assault Division were typically composed of regulars and the best of the conscripts who (usually) volunteered for service in the airborne.

	Trained to a significantly higher standard, the VDV was expected to serve as the first combat troops to enter Europe via air assault or parachuting, depending on the regiment. As described in the book, they would hold out until relieved by the Red Army. Unlike the shock armies who could afford to throw companies of men against the defenders, the VDV would have to rely on the man next to them which encouraged tactics far more similar to NATO than PACT doctrine.

	Still, this is a fucking disaster in realism. The Polish and Czechs were famous for the superior training of their airborne forces: the bulk of the conscript force would be send into the motor-rifle divisions as undertrained cannon fodder, but the Czech Vysadkari and Poland’s Air Assault Division were typically composed of regulars and the best of the conscripts who (usually) volunteered for service in the airborne.

	~~Airborne troops were part of the army and not the air force though, so kudos for getting the uniforms right...?~~
