Maintenance of Military Technique

Maintenance of Military Technique

Data is displayed for the academic year: 2025./2026.

Course Description

The student should understand the definition, importance and theoretical features of the maintenance process of technical systems. Maintenance approaches, methods and procedures should be distinguished and evaluated. Students should be prepared and trained to apply the acquired theoretical knowledge in the field of maintenance to solving requirements and problems from the practice of military equipment maintenance.
