Abstract

Logistical support of military contingents participating in operations conducted outside the country is complicated and creates a number of difficulties. In addition, these operations are conducted in the different places in the world, usually far away from the country. These difficulties further exacerbated the volatility of conditions of logistics tasks resulting from reigning in place of a mission, the climate, the possibility of using logistics infrastructure and the state of the transport network.The article presents the characteristics of logistic support of military units performing tasks in peace-keeping missions considered in terms of operational and tactical, terrain and climate as well as logistic conditions. These factors play a crucial role in planning and preparing the logistics of forces dedicated to perform tasks outside the country. These factors must be taken into account to develop a logistical plan and then implement it.
