The special services of the USSR were interested in the supernatural capabilities of a person long before the Great Patriotic War, but the research that was carried out in this area was not systematic. And only in the late 1980s was it possible to somehow structure the obtained data on this topic.
When perestroika began in the USSR, the Pentagon, with the support of the CIA in the Stargate program, was actively developing psi-attack technologies that made it possible to exert energy-informational effects on the enemy. They were called "Brain Wars".
At the research center, American scientists began the study of the so-called far-sightedness, which is very similar to the Russian concept of clairvoyance. In particular, the possibility of using these abilities to implement psychic communication with their submarines was studied. In addition, attempts were made, using the same capabilities, to determine the coordinates of Soviet nuclear missile carriers in the ocean.
The need to protect the country from such Western psi-attacks forced the Soviet special services to also address the issue of human psychic capabilities. The government and the Department of Defense needed a super-elite - people with phenomenal abilities.
After the collapse of the USSR, one of the objectives of the Stargate program was to incite hostility between the Russian Federation and China. The result of the conflict provoked by the American military psychics would be a bloodless Russia and a weakened PRC, which could ultimately end in a global nuclear missile war. The Kremlin officers - parapsychologists - managed to prevent this.
But this began in 1989, when on the initiative of the Chief of the General Staff, General of the Army Mikhail Moiseyev, a new unit was formed - military unit 10003. This military unit was formed to provide assistance in solving many specific problems.
Honored military specialist, a prominent scientist-anthropophenomenologist, Lieutenant General A. Yu. Savin became the head of the state programs of confrontation with a potential enemy in the field of the psychosphere.
The very idea of creating such a unit to the Minister of Defense Dmitry Yazov was "thrown" by numerous psychics who claim that they can reveal the location of enemy objects without any equipment: submarines, ships, military units.

The entire staff of the unit consisted of 10 people who were distinguished by extraordinary and large-scale thinking and had outstanding abilities in military affairs. At the same time, the comic name of the unit appeared - "a thousand and three nights", which meant that they were doing something frivolous and fabulous.
Employees and servicemen of military unit 10003, using their phenomenal abilities, worked in four directions:
They prevented emergencies, searched for missing people, criminals, warehouses with weapons and ammunition, planes and ships, treated wounded and sick soldiers.
Analyzed the programs of psi-wars by NATO and the United States.
We worked on creating our own methods of energy-informational influence.
We developed the intuitive and intellectual abilities of "special operators" - analysts of the highest level, whose capabilities were much more effective than those of mediums and telepaths.
In the military unit, they were engaged in the formation of outstanding creative potential and extrasensory abilities among officers. Psychics were not specially recruited into Savin's group.
In total, more than five million rubles were allocated for the formation of the unit. This issue was personally dealt with by Savin's patron, Finance Minister Valentin Pavlov. To finance military unit 10003, a secret program was specially developed, according to which the state allocated four million dollars for research work every year. According to an established and secret scheme, transfers were carried out until 2003.
In the early 90s, psychics managed to predict a nuclear explosion in the Scottish Glasgow area. The information was passed on to the British. Surprisingly, this data helped prevent a nuclear explosion at one of the NATO facilities.
Also, employees of military unit 10003 predicted an earthquake that happened in Kamchatka. In addition, according to Savin, they have developed their own version of resolving the conflict in the Caucasus. Unfortunately, B. Yeltsin did not take advantage of the staff's recommendations, which led to a military crisis in Chechnya.
Arriving in the Caucasus, Colonel Savin, together with the subordinates of military unit 10003, identified the location of the command centers of the Chechen fighters, and helped to conduct interrogations. The group assessed the situation and made predictions about future events.
As a result of the effective two-year work of military unit 10003 on the conflict in the Caucasus, its status has increased. Since 1997, the military unit of Colonel Savin, which was considered a branch of the General Staff, received the status of a special directorate.
The new state consisted of eight colonels and two generals who controlled the activities of 120 departments participating in the project. Alexei Savin himself received the rank of lieutenant general.
General Savin's military unit worked for 15 years. Since 2000, the process of declassifying some provisions of the methodology began with their gradual adaptation to civilian life. Now they have begun to be used not only in law enforcement agencies, but also in educational institutions, private business structures. In 2003, military unit 10003 was liquidated by a special order, and its commander resigned.
Thus, the work of a secret project, created at the most critical moment for the country, was completed. Psychic officers saved the state from inevitable ruin and collapse, and their numerous discoveries in the field of the phenomenal became the basis for psychological trainings.
Nevertheless, at the beginning of the 2000s, the activities of the unit were criticized by the chairman of the Commission for Combating Pseudoscience and Falsification of Scientific Research Eduard Kruglyakov.
