            Sergey Vladimirovich

            genus. October 11, 1966, Novosibirsk, RSFSR, USSR

            In August 1991, with the rank of captain, he served as commander of a motorized rifle battalion of the Taman Motorized Rifle Division guards. The battalion consisting of 20 BMP-1 and one BRDM-2 was sent by order of the State Emergency Committee to send commandant posts on the Garden Ring. During the incident, three young people died in a tunnel on the Garden Ring: Dmitry Komar (crushed by caterpillars while maneuvering an infantry fighting vehicle), Ilya Krichevsky and Vladimir Usov (shot dead). After the defeat of the State Emergency Committee, Surovikin was arrested and was under investigation for about 7 months. As a result, the charges were dropped, as he was following the orders of the leadership. Moreover, Surovikin was not just released, but promoted by personal order of the President of Russia Boris Yeltsin. Having understood the actions of Captain Surovikin, Yeltsin bluntly said "... and immediately release Major Surovikin." Thus, making it clear that it increases his rank for exemplary performance of military duty [2].

            However, opponents of Surovikin tried to speculate with a criminal record for the sale of weapons, despite the fact that it was repaid. Then Surovikin appealed to the court and achieved the cancellation of even the decision that was against him. Thus, Surovikin was completely rehabilitated.
            “For me, this topic was closed back in 1995. The investigation dealt with the case, established my innocence, they apologized to me and extinguished the criminal record. That misunderstanding, since then, did not stop me from living or serving. Why would I remember him? But, as soon as I was appointed senior to the working group on the creation of the Military Police, individual citizens began to speculate on that old fact and denigrate my honor and dignity. And this is unacceptable to me. I had to go to court and, as they say, finally put all the points down - the court’s decision to convict was canceled, due to the lack of corpus delicti in my actions, there is no more speculation, ”Surovikin commented on these events [7]

      We do not have bosses with creative thinking, I will clarify, with realized creative thinking ... Our army is fighting using outdated, non-modern methods of warfare during World War II ... Information technologies are not implemented and are not used for modern information support of combat actions in terms of information about the enemy and target designation in real time ... They are used one-sidedly and only to control troops, or rather they are trying to use them. mainly for demonstrations ... They deceive themselves and are delighted to rephrase the classic ... The main complaints to the General Staff and its leader, who do nothing in this regard and are extras and observers ... We are backward in this plan, an army that is armed with modern weapons, but does not know how to use these weapons, and does not know how to ensure its effective use in combat conditions ... Operations against partisans are treated as full-scale military operations, based on this ugliness, silly fundamental conclusions are made about nothing and all this is elevated to the rank of a great victory by the idiots in the army’s leadership .... The parade of freaks and Gerasimov in it is the first ...

        Mdaa ... what aliens and Igilovites were defeated and Syria from the pit is unknown who pulled out ... and it was not known who fought there ... it is not necessary to insult the officers in this way ... do not say so ... this is bad, first of all, for yourself.

          Partisans - Igilovites were defeated ... I did not touch ordinary officers, they honestly fulfilled their duty ... There is a result in Syria, but there is only a satisfactory way to achieve this result ... There are no changes in the level of combat operations, this is that the information revolution in the world ... Have not heard? Moreover, the war is waged irrationally, with a large overspending of forces and means, and there are no suitable means just for such a war, especially the aerospace forces are not ready, most planes and missiles are used for other purposes .... About this in reports and victorious reports not a word ...

              ABOVE an article by Lavrov .... about the INF Treaty ... A vivid example.
              Therefore, by signing an agreement to ban and destroy such land-based missiles, we, of course, seriously disarmed ourselves in this category of weapons
              It is very interesting: what intelligent general and what military experts (experts) could sign such a stupid treaty, or rather, ensure his military justification and equality of parities? From the General Staff at least .. This is about the smartest generals .... Maybe someone knows or have to look for it yourself? This is what a moron you need to be in order to give a shit about your country ... And now they are also too stupid, but loyal .... Just like Gerasimov ... That's why we don’t have Combat Information Systems for observing the enemy and targeting in real time ... And also, ....

        These “operations against partisans”, as you put it, are just the most difficult kind of war, actually.
        At all times, the heaviest losses were suffered by troops in combat against irregular formations.

          Moreover, the person does not quite take into account that the ground operation was carried out mainly by the Syrian-Iranian units, which 2 years ago were ... well, remember it yourself. So they had to be organized (taking into account linguistic differences), and with the assistance of the videoconferencing system, they had to be able to clean up the territory (with a bunch of operations in big cities, with the support of the Basmachi Western democracy fighters, all kinds of White Helmets, etc.) from hordes of scum from many countries. Moreover, quite motivated and skillful barmalei, with thousands of suicide bombers, normal supply, non-poor sponsors. Change Turkey’s approaches from hostile to favorable. To put the opposition at the negotiating table. Organize demarcation zones. Mine hundreds of kilometers of territory. Conduct hundreds of humanitarian missions. Try out new weapons. Provide supplies at a decent distance from the rear. And so forth and so forth

        There is a lot of information on the Internet about the effectiveness of using VKS, reconnaissance and strike systems, electronic warfare systems, UAVs in real time, it is necessary to study this before scribbling the nonsense of an inflamed-altered consciousness.

She receives a picture in real time from drones, from some space vehicles, data from the radar situation. In general, the gigantic control system of a completely new type, which we never had before, and in the Soviet army it was not

      Gerasimov himself is the 55th year of birth, i.e. far from an old man for a general of this level. But in general, when he found out that he, who personally sniffed gunpowder and crawled along his belly in the Chechen mud, was appointed chief of the general staff, it was very gratifying!
