Snow is cool, until you live in it, train in it, and sleep in it ;) This coming from a guy who had to run to his foxhole during an alarm drill in the middle of the night.... in nothing but rubberboots and boxers on xD (clothing i just hanged around me and put on in the hole :D)

Snowmobiles are pretty easy to use, but you have to use your whole body to balance while making turns in deep snow and rather be heavy on the throttle so you dont get stuck. And watch out for thin ice... So I guess it depends alot on the terrain. I'm a Swede but I have to admit Finns are badass neighbours to have, love them!

I’m a former infantryman out of the 10th Mountain Division. But, I’ve been racing and around racing for the vast majority of my life. In the WRC, really all of the racing world, there’s a saying that goes “if you want to win, hire a Finn.” And it’s looking like that doesn’t just apply to Motorsport.

I heard from the News Finland sent those special jaegers to Afganistan just few days ago. U.S. Embassy Finland (2 days ago): The United States is grateful to Finland for its gracious offer to facilitate the safe transit of U.S. citizens and evacuees.

Thank you for your videos and positive comments about Finnish military service. Greetings from 🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮

Rifle is most likely latest finnish RK modernized version. Finnosh camo m/05 is done by taking 100s of thousands even million pictures of Finnish terrain and scenery and digitally compressing it. It works very well. While I was enlsited officer(one year contract after conscription) I was lucky to get to a lesson held by the Special jäger trainer. On thing that I remember well is that he said it takes 8 years to trainer sufficient special jäger. So their life is more valuable than any equipment(is true to all troops but meaning the lenght of training is so long so replacing operative is huge pain). They surely are trained with snowmobiles. One story from the lecture was that they were going into mission where terrain would not allow any motorized movement and walking was too slow so they were specially trained for horse riding. There is very little footage and knowledge of them outside of them. Most of the videos on youtube have lot of footage showing some other troops even though it is meant to be about them. I had something else to write too but I have to get to hockey practice. Cool reaction as always and keep it up!!

Mostly the problems were about inferior ballistic charasteristics of the calibers available and mechanical failures in really cold weather.

I was in finnish rapid deployment force back in 2001. It was 6 months of normal military training and then 3 months of peace keeping training. The level of training went up greatly when the last 3 months training started. It was like in school training from 6:00 am until 17:00 every day. I liked that the instructors were so pro. What I didn't like was that everything had to shining all the time. Gear maintenance was over the top and we had to do shows for foreign weapons inspectors. I don't think they were that stupid to believe the training show we gave them. Like once we had parade uniforms and only t shirt under it and the temp was below zero Celsius. Still training was very high quality if asked from me. Then we went to nato training exercise in poland. We shined there until higher ups decided to give us free time with the Austrians. Of course we fucked it up as a unit. We were supposed to drink just 4 beers per person, but it got out of hand. Some people changed their whole uniforms with the Austrians, I got penalty as being the leader of vehicle and being drunk. Good times.

The rifle at the start is the Finnish RK-62M3, a modified version of our old local AK-47 copy. M3 variant has that green Cerakote treatment. That "awesome place to jump" is in Lappeenranta, a small city in SE Finland, just 20 km from the Russian border and 70 km from Utti which is the homebase for these guys.

We also use KASI-simulator for training. Its laser and gps based system. You put receiver over your bodyarmour/helmet and transmitter to gun. It tells you if you are wounded and disables gun. This system can also used with tanks and other vehicles. Its pretty fun and to train with this system.

Loving these reactions and respect. Also your own expertice is great. When I was doin' my service back in -95, I was in a jaeger battalion to get my basic training but our main "thing" was urban warfare and military police training. The gears seems to be evolved a lot since then.

sayings every Finn knows. "Snow is not an obstacle, it's only an hindrance" - "lumi ei ole este, se on hidaste" - "Onwards said a granny in snow" - "eteenpäin sano mummo lumessa" .. those said, every finnish soldier is very much trained in fighting and surviving in various wintery conditions. We are situated in a middle climate, between arctic, oceanic/coastal and inland -type climates, which means winters differ greatly and can actually hype between -35°c to +15°c within 24hours depending on the region. Winters aren't always packed with snow, they can be mild and wet at times all across our, +1300km inlenght of a country. Inland regions usually get more colder winters than those on the coastal regions.

The rifle is modernized RK-62, so yes, it is AK variant. Basically it is same rifle as before but with modern attachment points and better buttstock =) You can check RK-62M series for better details, there are 3 presets in use at the moment (that can be adjusted naturally)

1:14 That’s an RK62M3. It has a green cerakote finish and is otherwise identical to the RK62M2 which has an M-Lok rail and can be fitted with a suppressor unlike the RK62M1 and the plain old RK62. The RK62M series is an upgrade to the old RK62. The RK62M1 is issued to your regular conscripts, especially readiness units. M2’s are for conscripts specializing in urban warfare and CQB while the M3’s are really only for special forces.

Tourists can rent and drive snowmobiles in Lapland, so they aren't terribly difficult. Of course occasionally tourists are also wounded in snowmobile accidents, so it still has its own challenges, like everything in life.

Thanks for the vid! You have nice quality and very cordial atmosphere in your videos. Snowmobiling in deep soft snow (not to mention deep and wet snow ;)) is hard first but when u get it, u can go almost anywhere. By standing you are more ready & quick to keep balance as u have to counterbalance the vehicle too - sometimes quite much... Broad front skis and big enough engine help also! So snowmobile can be really excellent help... or pain in the a***s ;) (As a Finn it is weirdly exotic to watch your videos)

The urban shoot was in Helsinki shopping mall called Kamppi.

Snowmobile is awesome and in Finland people use them in Le lakes in the semmer.... Yes they can run over water as well. Pretty cool.

Snowmobiles are fun to drive! I use to drive Arctic Cat El Tigre snowmobile. Winter conditions looks awesome and are awesome - nicely demanding too.

something about soldiers on snow looks cool

The assault rifle is the updated version of RK 62

I was trained as K-9 squad leader in my military service, and while I knew at the time I was going to be so dead if I ever had to do the things we trained for for real, looking at your videos I realize I would have been even deader. Luckily being 49 and never called to refresh my training means I most likely won't get mobilized unless we're utterly and completely screwed.

Snowmobiles are quite easy to drive, having driven bikes before a snowmobile, it feels quite different. First of all, it's much more relaxed, you turn by turning the handlebars, not by shifting weight or by turning the bars in the opposite direction like you would on bikes at fast speeds. But since you're turning with the bars, it's easy to get thrown off the mobile if you overdo it without preparing. You have to lean against the turn with your whole body to stay on the mobile while doing higher G turns.

i like your videos keep going❤️

8:50 I think every conscript gets finnish variant of USA tactical combat casualty care. Its easy and simple to learn, and real life saver. Actually my training relied mostly on it, as i was "combat saver" of long distance scout team. We did not have actual medics. They were seen useles, because if you suffered fatal injury 200km deep behind enemy lines. What are your chances to get back home? No need for medic then. I would love to see you react to Finnish borderguard troops. Spesially Ivalos borderguard company, as it is the northernmost around the year military base in the world.

A quad bike used in the desert handles the same as a snow mobile. They are basically the same motor and body but with skis instead of wheels.

Helicopter jump scene at 3:33 is in Oulu. That's the fourth biggest urban area in Finland. Population around 250k.

It's an Rk 62 m3. Best ak variant. There is 3 models of the latest Rk. M1 for infantry, m2 is optimized for urban warfare and m3 for special forces.

Don't know how bureaucratic the US system is or how much they listen to you guys but maybe you could show interest in participating the next arctic warfare exercise held here? Would be very cool (and cold) if you came to train with us at jaeger brigade.

Snowmobiles have to be the easiest vehicle to drive. Started driving them under my fathers supervision for the first time when I was 6(with him riding with me, and hands hovering, ready to take over if I did something stupid), and was driving them on my own when I was 9-10(ofc I occasionally snuck out to ride it a few times before then, but that's when I got to do it openly upon occasion, as long as someone older was nearby). I was constantly driving at 100 km/h+ past 11(we own a lot of forest up by the northern border, and I used to ride it between ours and our cousin's cabin - Where we basically owned most of the area, about 3-4km between them). Only time we had any issues, was when I unknowingly stopped over a small lake with trees growing out of it still, where the ice was thin. And my father had to take over immediately as I was looking around, when he noticed the ice starting to break behind him. I think I was 10 at the time. It looked nothing like it was a lake, with a hard packed trail across, and various little peaks dotting it, likely from stones or trees sticking out. It had likely recently sunk in and turned into a lake. PS. While I say they're easy to drive and handle, my brother is a reckless menace on them. He once made a 90 degree turn at 100 km/h with both of us on, throwing us both off. Luckily it was on day with very powdery snow, and nobody was even remotely hurt(though mostly since we both knew how to fall from a snowmobile at speed in the safest way, and so I let myself drop when I knew it was safe - Rather than holding on).

I've never driven a snowmobile myself, but back when I was like twelve or something, my friend was really into it. We went to Lapland with her parents to drive them in a nearby forest path. I thought being the passanger on her father's ride was terrifying, but it didn't compare at all to my friend's driving. Funniest part was that while I was clutching to her for my dear life, she happened to lose her grip after a big bump and I blinked just at that moment. So one second I'm holding onto her while on the snowmobile, and the next I'm lying in the snow, staring at the sky and wondering wtf happened. :D Considering how young she and I were (she's a year older than me), it can't be too hard.

I respect him and for attitude all of us being there one time and things were have though :)

if i remember right us army was training in finland

The rifle in the beginning is the RK62

We have the same snowmobiles in the Swedish arctic forces. What you see here is almost identical to our unit, including their gear.

At first the helicopter had me thinking it was a Westland Merlin, having looked into it it's very similar because it comes from the same design background, Augusta Westland being one of the contractors. And I have to agree their camouflage is very good. When you think about how small Finland is as a nation they have a very good reputation, in 1940 they kicked the s*** out of Russia.

Snowmobiles are so easy to use. They are balanced and just like motorcycles just turn the throttle when it is on, and it moves.

There was also some footage of the border guards special intervention units. They have The SCAR, G36 and an M4 style rifle. They have several units some train to aid police in difficult scenarios and some specialize in Naval intervention missions etc. There is very Limited information available on those guys but they are Even More top tier than The special jägers dare i say.

A great way to get around, enjoy the views (they are to DIE for on clear, sunny days), and play around! Now, I would recommend going on a snowmobile safari trip with professionals that now how treacherous the weather conditions can be (freezing winds, sudden snowstorms, a.s.o.), and how painstaking it can be to dig your snowmobile out WHEN you (or somebody else) decide to lose control of the vehicle - that's gonna happen. Unfortunately, we've had a lot of accidents involving snowmobiles in recent years in Sweden, so not only did a specific license pop up, it has now become MANDATORY, and since accidents (and in many cases reckless driving) has still been a problem to public safety the police were given a priority task a few years back to crack down on snowmobile operators that don't give hand signals, don't leave way when crossing public roads, drive were it's not permitted, and so forth... A serious warning also: LOOK OUT FOR THAT TREE, GEORGE!

That rifle is modernized version of old RK-62. RK-62M3 (IIRC) to be precise. Old one has a rather utilitarian look and barebones stock, but works wonders. Don't quote me on this one, but RK-62M1 is what's issued to infantry, in some bigger garrisons at least. Dunno if RK-95's are being replaced but I doubt it.

The ak looking gun is New finnish assault rifle called RK62M

Maybe someday you will come to Finland to train with the Special Jaeger Battalion.. ;)

Its finnish RK 62 M3 so its modified version of the casual RK 62

The special jaeger company (EJK) is one of the 2 readiness units in the FDF that consists solely of career NCO's and officers. The company is a part of the Special Jaeger Battalion, which also has a parajaeger company (LJK), a conscript/reservist special training unit. The rifle in 1:10 is a RK62m3. It is a modernized version of the main service rifle 7.62 RK62. There are three modernized versions for different units, m2 and m3 are identical, apart from the green finish of m3. EDIT: The FDF recently told the public that the professional special troops unit of the Finnish Navy will also become a part of the Utti Special jaeger battalion. The other unit will still be located in the Upinniemi naval base, but they will probably be having more co-operation in the land-based training, tactics and equipment. The Finnish Navy special troops will still be having a combat diver training.

Nice thing about finnish rk series (based on ak) is that it can use normal AK magazines but normal ak cannot use RK magazines!

Operating in the snow is cold but same time wet, when the snow hasn't melted on warmer winter days and it got piles, it is not easy to go in it, because you sank into it. It is a challenging environment, but I bet you could get training in Finland from those people that you did get to know in Varusteleka, I think they do training camps by them self too. Ask.

Helicopter NH-90. Build by NH Industries (Airbus Helicopters Germany and France, Leonardo Italy and Stork Fokker Netherlands)

As my memories from a training camp, that happened during NCO training and in really cold winter, all I can say is: F snow!

The assault rifle name is ''Sako rk95'' from valmet.

snowmobile riding can be learned fast. I needed 5 minutes. but becoming better than the enemy at it, DOES require training. You will top over occationally, and then the diffiulties begin. Recovering from tipped over position while in deep snow does only work with the aid of the machine that is tipped over. But if an experienced drivers shows it to you, you have that skill under your belt in one day. In lapland preschool kids drive the snowmobile

The snowmobiles are quite easy to operate you just need to control your weight when turning.

I think Puolustusvoimat would love to train with you too. You sound like a real pro, ammattimies, as Finns like to put it.

That is modern version of finnish rk95 i dont remember now what rk it is called but now when they added those Rails in it, we have More options to mod our rifles. I think those are for special military squads only atleast for now. I loved my RK62 when i was in the military.:) would go back there any time.
