Broad area of activity

Vayots Dzor province from Yeghegnadzor, facing the Nakhchivan frontier

Notable history

The 4th Corps holds the sector between the 5th Corps' capital region and the 1st Corps' Syunik: the province of Vayots Dzor, whose southern frontier is Nakhchivan's northern one and whose passes carry the road from Yerevan to Goris and Iran. Compiled references describe it as four motor-rifle regiments with artillery and signals battalions — a composition the transformation concept is replacing and not adopted here. Its frontier is the one Turkish forces exercise beside, in Nakhchivan, under the Azerbaijani–Turkish alliance.

Strengths

Mountain terrain and interior lines to both the capital and the south.

Limitations

A sector on which the exclave's garrison and its Turkish partner both bear, and through whose passes the only road to Syunik runs. No strength, holdings, positions or readiness are published.
