The military unit was formed as the 145th Separate Special Motorized Militia Battalion of the 43rd Red Banner Convoy Division of the Internal Troops.
Since the beginning of its formation, the military unit has been deployed at the location of a battalion of the patrol-post police service of the Internal Affairs Directorate of the Gomel Regional Executive Committee.
The personnel of the unit were relocated to a new place of permanent deployment on the territory of the former Orlyonok Pioneer Camp only in February 1992.
On 27 February 1991, the military unit carried out the tasks of protecting public order in connection with the arrival in Gomel of Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev.
From 17 June to 25 September 1991, the personnel of the unit enforced public order in the city of Stepanakert of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Region of the Azerbaijan SSR and ensured the security of a peacekeeping mission of the Russian Presidents Boris Yeltsin and Kazakh leader Nursultan Nazarbayev.
