Ministrstvo za nacionalno obrambo Helenske republike in Ministrstvo za obrambo Republike Slovenije, ki delujeta v imenu svojih držav, se z odobritvijo vseh držav uporabnic Natovih sistemov za izstrelitev raket (NAMFI) in po posvetovanju s poveljstvom SHAPE dogovorita o naslednjem:

V skladu z odobritvijo države gostiteljice, držav uporabnic in poveljstva SHAPE enote Slovenske vojske izstrelijo rakete MANPAD IGLA 1 (SA 16 - oznaka pri NATO, 9K 310-1 - ruska oznaka), MANPAD STRELA 2M (SA 7 - oznaka pri NATO, 9K 32 M - ruska oznaka), SAM STRELA 1M (SA 9- oznaka pri NATO, 9K 31 M - ruska oznaka, samovozni SAM) in streljajo s samovoznim topom AAA 20/3 mm (samovozni trojni 20- milimetrski protiletalski top, BOV 3- nekdanja jugoslovanska oznaka) v skladu z ustreznimi členi večstranskega sporazuma za uporabo poligona NAMFI, kjer je to primerno, in tega sporazuma.

Cilj sporazuma je opredelitev določil in pogojev, ki veljajo za Slovensko vojsko pri uporabi poligona NAMFI za izvedbo izstrelitev, omenjenih v 1. členu.

Streljanje, ki ga opravi Slovenska vojska, je vključeno v razpored streljanja na poligonu NAMFI za leto 1999 v 37. tednu ( od 13. do 17. septembra 1999).

Pooblaščeni predstavniki poligona NAMFI in Slovenska vojska skupaj pripravijo običajne operativne postopke, ki podrobno določajo postopke izvedbe teh streljanj. Ti postopki so priloženi k temu sporazumu kot Dodatek A k temu sporazumu pred začetkom streljanja.
Če pride do razhajanj med postopki in tem sporazumom, veljajo določbe tega sporazuma.

Poveljstvo poligona NAMFI je odgovorno za zračni in pomorski promet znotraj in okoli območja, ki je določeno za izvedbo streljanja iz 1. člena tako, da poišče ladje in letala, ki so na omenjenem območju.
Ta nadzor in odkrivanje se opravita pred in med izvajanjem streljanja na način, ki zagotavlja, da so ladje in letala na varnostnem območju, ki je na voljo med streljanjem.
Poveljstvo poligona NAMFI je edini organ, ki ima pravico:
1. ukazati vzlet maket na zahtevo slovenske enote, če varnostni pogoji poligona to dovoljujejo;
2. dovoliti slovenski enoti, da na povelje za odpiranje ognja začne streljati, če varnostni pogoji poligona to dovoljujejo;
3. upravljati izvajanje streljanja;
4. ukazati slovenski enoti, da na povelje za ustavitev ognja preneha streljati, če varnostni pogoji to zahtevajo;
5. ukazati prekinitev leta in vrnitev radijsko vodenih maket, če varnostni pogoji to zahtevajo.
Častnik za varnost enote je odgovoren za upoštevanje vseh varnostnih ukrepov in priprav, ki jih sprejme slovensko osebje, udeleženo pri streljanju. V celoti mora biti seznanjen z običajnimi operativnimi postopki kot tudi z vsemi pripravami in postopki, ki veljajo za izvedbo streljanja.
Častnik za varnost enote mora uveljavljati vse varnostne ukrepe in postopke med streljanjem na območjih, določenih za rakete IGLA 1, STRELA 2M, STRELA 1M in top AAA BOV 3 s pomočjo častnika za zvezo in v skladu z ukazi in napotki častnika za varnost poligona NAMFI.
Vse izstrelitve in leti maket kot tudi izstrelitve raket in topovsko streljanje se izvedejo le znotraj poligona NAMFI. Slovenska enota je odgovorna, da izstreli rakete in strelja s topom tako, da izstrelki, krogle in njihovi delci ostanejo znotraj določenega območja.
Če slovenska enota karkoli pomembnega opazi, mora častnik za varnost enote takoj ustaviti postopke za streljanje in po častniku za zvezo poročati častniku za varnost poligona.

Vsi zahtevki se rešujejo v skladu z VIII. členom v NATO SOFA in določbami Večstranskega sporazuma za uporabo poligona NAMFI. Zahtevki tretjih strank, ki niso pogodbenice, do Slovenske vojske, se poravnajo v skladu z zakonodajo Helenske republike.
Za zahtevke v zvezi s smrtjo ali osebno poškodbo ali škodo na lastnini, ki nastane izven varnostnega območja, v celoti odgovarja Slovenska vojska.
Za smrt ali osebno poškodbo ali škodo na lastnini zaradi izstrelka, ki je zašel, je odgovorna izključno Slovenska vojska, če se je to zgodilo zaradi opustitve opredeljenih varnostnih ukrepov.

Pri plačilu streljanja, ki ga opravi Slovenska vojska, se uporabi metoda za izračun stroškov, kot se zaračunavajo državam nečlanicam Nata/ članicam PzM, kadar poligon NAMFI uporabljajo enote z nestandardnim orožjem, kot to določa Dodatek B k temu sporazumu, s tem da se dopolni z ustreznimi stroški za nastanitev, prevoz in prehrano.
Plačilo je dohodek v proračunu poligona NAMFI, ki pokriva stroške v zvezi z uporabniki. Računi za obroke se poravnavajo neposredno pri dobavitelju pripravljene hrane, ki upravlja restavracije za poligon NAMFI.
Račune za ustrezne operativne in posebne stroške bo poligon NAMFI poslal na:
Ministrstvo za obrambo Republike Slovenije
GENERALŠTAB SLOVENSKE VOJSKE
Kardeljeva pl. 25
1000 LJUBLJANA
SLOVENIJA
najkasneje v 60 dneh po koncu streljanja. Te račune mora Slovenska vojska plačati v 45 dneh po prejemu.

Poligon NAMFI zagotavlja slovenski enoti enako stopnjo tehnične in logistične podpore, kot jo imajo pri streljanju države uporabnice poligona NAMFI. Poleg tega poligon NAMFI daje na voljo tudi ustrezno obstoječo infrastrukturo in opremo za streljanje.

Vsi spori, ki nastanejo med izvajanjem tega sporazuma, se rešujejo izključno s pogajanji med pogodbenicama.

Ta sporazum začne veljati na dan, ko Ministrstvo za obrambo Helenske republike obvesti Ministrstvo za obrambo Republike Slovenije, da so končani vsi notranji postopki za njegovo ratifikacijo.
Sporazum velja do 31. decembra 1999. Če po tem datumu ostanejo odprta še kakšna finančna vprašanja, sporazum velja še toliko časa, da se vsa vprašanja dokončno rešijo.

Za izvajanje sporazuma skrbi Ministrstvo za obrambo Republike Slovenije.

Ta uredba začne veljati naslednji dan po objavi v Uradnem listu Republike Slovenije – Mednarodne pogodbe.
