The 3096 AVDS (Armored Vehicle Defense Squadron) was established in 1967 as part of the broader modernization efforts of its parent military organization. Originally formed to provide maintenance and operational support for armored vehicle fleets, the unit quickly distinguished itself during training exercises and peacekeeping missions throughout the 1970s and 1980s. In the 1990s, 3096 AVDS played a crucial logistical role during regional conflicts, ensuring the readiness and effectiveness of armored units in combat zones. Today, the unit continues to serve as a key element in armored vehicle support, adapting to new technologies and mission requirements in the 21st century.
