The experience of training of repairmen in the countries that are members of NATO Allied Forces is studied in order to further, for the first time, develop options for improving both the system of maintenance and repair of communications and ACS and improving the training of repairmen of communications and ACS of defense forces. The experience of using the units in the conduct of operations in a full-scale war unleashed by the Russian Federation shows that one of the most pressing problems is the proper maintenance and repair of all types of weapons and military equipment in the logistics system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other components of the defense forces during their assigned tasks. After analyzing the requirements of the main guiding documents that refer to the main directions of development of the tasks of the maintenance and repair system in the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other components of the state defense forces[1-6], it should be noted that the priority direction is "development of the logistics support system for the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other components of the defense forces in the performance of the tasks of comprehensive defense of Ukraine, automation of logistics processes, their integration with the relevant processes of the national economy to support the operations of the Joint Forces.
