93 River Center (Serbian: 93. речни центар or 93. rečni centar) is a unit in the Serbian Army. Its main tasks are: reconnaissance, demolition, counter terrorism, and all diving work in rivers and waters inside Serbia. It includes frogmen. The unit was formed on 1 June 1972.
93 RC has trained more than 1500 scuba divers for all water-based activities, on a level co-responding to that of similar units of this type world-wide. They have standard weapons and diver equipment, most by Russian origin, although some hail from Germany,France and Sweden.
Anti-terrorist actions include protecting objects and ships in base areas, and (in cooperation with Army units) finding terrorist groups in the inner sailing corridors.
