5:34Now PlayingPotemkin Training is a style of training that uses setpiece, pre-scripted training that is designed more to impress outsiders than provide actual training value.
You tend to see this training in armies who exist more as "Palace guard" armies" since realistic force on force training is expensive and you don't want your army too competent lest it overthrow your rule.
Western countries tend to use MILES gear or the MULTIPLE INTEGRATED LASER ENGAGEMENT SYSTEM to conduct realistic force on force training.
