The Kuçovë Air Base hosted a study visit from the teaching staff of the College of Security and Defense. As the new academic year kicks off, they were introduced to the base's infrastructure and operational capabilities. This comes at a time when the Air Force is in the process of acquiring new aircraft to enhance its operational capacities and provide both theoretical and practical training for future pilots.

This visit is seen as mutually beneficial, supporting the Air Force's efforts to equip itself with the necessary human resources across various specialties in line with its professional education objectives.

During the visit, a training demonstration was conducted featuring Black Hawk and Cougar helicopters, along with a presentation of the UAV (unmanned aerial vehicles) aircraft.
