That guy seems to know what he’s doing. I wouldn’t want to be in the receiving end of that throw - a sternum is not nearly at durable as the wood he’s throwing that blade into.

A properly thrown knife , especially a heavier one , can stick in with surprising force . :cool:

I've been amazed , trying to extract throwing knives from wood targets . How deeply imbedded they were .

I've tried to duplicate this by stabbing the same knives into the same wood targets , with very weak results . :oops:

DIVISION "GRAD" FSB
The special-purpose detachment of the FSB of Russia "Grad" ("Hail") a combat group formed in the early 90s on the basis of the KGB "Baltika". For 25 years, many successful operations have been carried out, including the neutralization of dangerous bandits, as well as terrorists. Each member of the group goes through several selections, hundreds of graduates of military institutions apply for one place. Increased attention to psychological and physical preparation.

Workout

Special Forces trainings are held daily. One of the exercises: after two shots in the chest of the Grad officer with live ammunition, he must eliminate the enemy with return fire. The bullets remain in the bulletproof vest, so the commando does not feel physical harm, in addition to the pain, which, thanks to many years of training, he manages to cope with. The thickness of the bulletproof vest 5A-class is enough to reflect the hit of a 7.62 mm bullet fired from a machine gun at a distance of 10 meters.

Combat training in urban conditions is carried out by dividing the detachment into two groups. The first in full uniform shoots at targets in front of which the second group moves. Only trained professionals can perform this exercise. At the same time, the emphasis is on psychological preparation, which allows Grad employees to get rid of the fear of being shot.

One of the branches of the special forces unit is a group of combat swimmers. Training takes place in an underwater shooting range, where it is possible to improve not only shooting in the aquatic environment, but also orientation in an almost completely invisible space. This group is the main force of the special forces on the water, it is engaged in the liberation of coastal areas and water transport from terrorists. To ensure secrecy, operations in most cases are carried out at night or at dusk.

Each employee is universal, since he can not only carry out the most complex operations on water and land, but also parachute from the air, justifying the name of the detachment. It is historically known that "gradovtsy" went on long business trips to Chechnya, operations were classified as "secret", except for those that cannot be kept secret.

Capabilities

To date, the main task of the special forces group is to counter terrorism. Employees of the FSB "Grad" are able to quietly appear from the water and parachute from the sky, and can also control any type of transport, including aircraft. Many members of the group graduated from the school of the Airborne Forces. A lot of effort is directed to the development of mental abilities, the best employees are able to remember a code of 26 digits in a few seconds.

The requirements for candidates are the highest: the presence of several educations, knowledge of languages, developed physical abilities. They get into the unit after the Academy of the FSB, the border school or the Airborne Forces. The basic rules of a special forces officer: successfully complete the operation, do not leave a comrade and survive. Almost all of Grad's actions remain secret, with only short training videos or outdated materials being released to the media.

Armament

The special group is armed with silent pistols, machine guns, machine guns and multiply charged grenade launchers. Used weapons with a proven track record and a high level of reliability. Each power unit is customized by a special forces officer "for himself" with the help of individual body kits. Every soldier has a different physiology and arm length, so weapons must be ergonomically designed to perform well in the harshest environments.

However, the main weapon of the Grad special forces are qualified employees, since the success of the operation depends only on their training, mental abilities, physical capabilities and psycho-emotional stability. Daily training is as close as possible to real combat conditions in order to develop the necessary skills and experience from a specialist.

And if you notice his training area is relatively "low tech" but no doubt effective. This is where the illusion of high budget and high tech result in combat superiority fall flat. Russia may not have the biggest budget, but what they do have, they spend heavily on military. They also don't baby their troops or hold themselves back with artificial handicaps. Feelings? Fetch your feelings..how about you get jump kicked in the chest, then get back to training..and don't even think about complaining. Can't talk about guns in school? Or even draw a picture of one?..how about you learn how to field strip a machine gun in grade school and get evaluated on your speed and efficiency. Live fire, force on force training..yeah they do that. This is what makes them very dangerous and unwise to under estimate.

Sick knife by the way.
