Planning Problems: The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation cannot break through in positional battles - isw

About it writes "Institute of War Study" in the summary of December 6. One of the Russian "troops" believes that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation should not concentrate attacking compounds - especially mechanized parts - in the area of ​​strike directions because Ukraine can attack large clusters of power.

According to him, any breakthrough should be preceded by artillery shelling-both for the purposes that attack Russian troops, and at the firing positions of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces in a wide area. The importance of coordination of actions of different units, in particular, isolated individual artillery units to cover certain areas of the front and the selection of part of the ammunition for the preparation of the battlefield is emphasized.

Some of the shells are also offered to keep the storm. "Vilage" noted that the assault units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation requires uninterrupted connection and the possibility of rapid exchange of intelligence. Analysts have repeatedly noted that in recent months, the occupation troops have lacked coordination of efforts. It is reported that the Russian military command needs to make an idea and to bring geographical features of the battlefield in the general combat plan.

But ISW analysts have not noticed any signs that the Russian forces have improved their capabilities to plan and coordinate offensive actions. In many ways, it is still ongoing and a disorderly offensive under Avdiivka. At the same time, analysts believe that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation still proved their ability to adapt offensive operations and defensive efforts in certain areas of the front.

But it is difficult to say whether the command will be able to improve the tactical and prompt coordination in larger areas of the front, which the military blogger insists. Recall that the Armed Forces are stormed under the robot, and positional battles continue in the main areas of the front. It was also reported that the Russian Federation increased the strikes of artillery and aviation near Bakhmut.
