Also, AFAIK, Romanian mountain troops are not trained for airmobile operations,while the paratroopers themselves despite their name are primarily meant to use helicopters (IAR 330 Puma) rather than fixed wing aircraft.
OK, fair enough it would be nice to know WHEN Romania STARTED fielding the paras during the cold war 1960 ? 1950 ?? 1970 ???

A start date would be helpful.

Also.. "finally disbanded in 2005 with two battalions still active." means what ?? The para brigades have been disbanded? Brigades mean nothing in this game. All I need to know is there are companies still active and when they first became active.
