Next SOFTERNA will take place on 2012.

SOFTERNA is a 36h nonstop recce and patrol mil–sim airsoft event, where recce teams of 2 or 3 compete in different soldier and infantry combat skills and avoid the mobilised counteraction which is scattered throughout the combat zone.

Participating recce teams should be experienced in military simulation airsoft, day and night navigation, fit to cover 25–30 kms (15–20 miles) on foot while fully equipped and have necessary gear for self-sustainability in the open terrain.

SOFTERNA takes its name from the Erna Raid (www.erna.ee), one of the longest, hardest and most exhausting recce and patrol competitions for the military in the world.
