What is worse for "Almaty": "Javelin" or EGE?

145
Speaking at the military college and referring to the results of inspections in military districts in 2017, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu as a whole positively assessed the results. However, once again the minister noted that the slow development of modern military equipment by military service personnel is a phenomenon that, unfortunately, has not gone anywhere.





And there is something to think about.

Shoigu, by the way, has more than once said that a year is not enough for the normal training of a modern soldier. And here there is a double-edged sword: on the one hand, the reluctance to “lose two years” can again lead to the wholesale flight from the army, on the other, it is already clear that a year is sufficient only to train those fighters who are not associated with sophisticated modern equipment.

Many will reasonably argue: he himself, he says, has repeatedly said / wrote that a year of military service is enough to test a candidate for a contract. And then - welcome to the contract service, where they will teach everything and quality.

I agree, wrote. And he thought that way, but then, looking at some exercises during a visit to the exercises, he became thoughtful.

The fact that today the youth is going to a contractual service with quite normal quantities is good. And with contentment, now everything is not so sad as ten years ago, and a beautiful bonus in the form of a housing certificate, too.

As for the numbers, even in 2015, Shoigu stated that the number of contractors exceeded the number of conscripts. And today, these numbers are approximately the 400-450 of the first thousand and about the 300 of the second thousand.

And if with contract soldiers everything is clear and understandable, then here is the problem of conscripts. Moreover, I watched it with my own eyes. Even after six months, for the most part, conscripts are universal sorrow. No, there are exceptions, I saw, for example, in Valuyki, as the guys after the 3 months of service were already capable of very meaningful and precise actions. But it really was an exception.

Pros from the contract. Having studied and mastered the technique of any complexity, be it an air defense system, an airplane, a tank, and so on, it is good that they are not limited in time. These are those who will be on the first line of defense in case of anything. The case can be anything: international terrorism, neighbors that have pulled out of coils, intervention in local conflicts within the CSTO (the most probable, by the way), “partners” from the West and their ambitions.

400 thousands of trained and competent professionals - this is a very tangible figure. However, who is the first to go to battle, he will be the first to lose. Proved long ago and spelled in blood.

Who will change them is a good question. And the other, no less, and, probably, even more burning: who will change tomorrow those who provide combat work?

For example, give airfields. I watched the process of preparing airplanes at three airfields in the Golden Military District this year. I was amazed that there are young pilots, but alas, among the technical staff. From the category 35-40 are found, but very rarely. Mostly for 40.

This year we wrote about the expansion of admission to the academy of Zhukovsky and Gagarin. 1612 cadets. Some part will not reach the finish line, of course, but a certain number will become technical staff at the aerodromes. Good.

Probably, the academy specialists did a good job, selecting 1612 people from almost 10 thousands who want to enroll.

There is, however, a nuance. Few people know that what is called today VUNC Air Force "Air Force Academy named after Professor N. E. Zhukovsky and Yu. A. Gagarin" is a conglomerate of several components.

In addition to the Academy named after Professor N. E. Zhukovsky and the Academy named after Yu. A. Gagarin, the following were included:
- Borisoglebsk Higher Military aviation School of Pilots named after V.P. Chkalov;
- Voronezh Higher Military Aviation Engineering School;
- Irkutsk Higher Military Aviation Engineering School;
- Stavropol Higher Military Aviation School for Pilots and Navigators of Air Defense;
- Tambov Higher Military Aviation Engineering School of Radio Electronics;
- Voronezh Military Institute of Radio Electronics;
- Federal State Research Center for Electronic Warfare and the evaluation of the effectiveness of reducing visibility.

So, two academies, two flight schools, two aviation engineering schools and two radio-electronic ones. NIIC EW does not consider it so, to heap.

8 military universities have teamed up to work in the training of engineers for the videoconferencing. The result - 1612 man and former commander in chief Bondarev did not hide his satisfaction. 12 faculties are 130 people on each. Plus, not everyone will finish training, fact.

Perhaps all is not so bad.

For 10 years (5 in teaching and 5 initial practice) you can end up as an engineer person.

For the year of the term - it is unlikely. But such tasks are not set.

Plus, we will not discount the terrifying level of our secondary education. By the way, then Bondarev said in an interview that "we would have scored three thousand, but better quality than quantity."

Translate? Or is it clear that the frank sacrifice of the USE is better not to allow planes?

But this is an officer corps, we will assume that they learn. Let's return to conscripts.

At the very least, it would seem like a year for a civilian youth to make a fighter, let's say, second-rate. That is, to learn to act in battle, to shoot from a machine gun, grenade launcher. Seen, you can. Shoot, fall. Already not bad.

More complex things that require specialized knowledge such as artillery, which for some reason cannot do without mathematics, is more difficult. Yes, ballistic computers and all other useful gadgets, this, of course, yes, are present.

About very complex things such as air defense, RCBZ, EW, you can already worry. There are electronics in bulk, even in the new RCM, wherever you put your head, everywhere there are touch screens and high-rise units. About "Armata" just silent.

And do not even think about some general computer literacy. Laiki in social networks and working with complex (really complex) electronic complexes are two different things.

What is the result? We have contract soldiers who are ready to go and show their knowledge and skills at the first call. Apply, so to speak, in practice. But the contractor must be protected, in him money and efforts are planted in full and from the heart. And, most importantly, who will replace him in case of what? Same contract? And it is still necessary to grow and learn.

The same is true in terms of those who will serve "Almaty", "Kurgan", "Boomerangs" and everything else, "not having an analogue in the world."

And, it turns out, like two armies, right? One is the professionals who know the technology to the screw and are able to do everything and the second, from the conscripts, who seem to be able to be even worse than the contract, but in the long run to be replaced.

But it does not work. If for the third year Shoigu grumbles on the topic that they do not really have time to master the technique, it means that he has grounds for it.

It turns out that those who went through military service, for the most part - again “cannon fodder”, honed under AK-74, BMP-3 and BTR-80? I don’t even want to talk about such things as communications and EW; every year there is something new for the troops.

Someone will say that we globally do not seem to be fighting with anyone. Well, yes, only someone will ask, if that? What’s around, inside the country of places where such a struggle for independence and interests can go, just carry out the shells ...

It seems that the army has a reserve. Not running from the service, not writing at night and mentally normal. On the other hand, this reserve is purely nominal, because for the year of service, nothing serious has been taught. Well, in general terms.

Double-edged stick. I understand Shoigu, on the one hand, he wants the reserve to be a real reserve. Reliable rear, not a cold ass.

Increase service life? Yes, a logical move. Technique is becoming increasingly difficult, it must be mastered, studied and understood. But then all the “soldiers' mothers” will definitely be vzvuyut and the like, and again begin dancing around the military registration and enlistment offices and medical commissions. Bribes and stuff. Even in our time, when peace and tranquility are relative, in the recruiting offices of the queue of those who wanted “to the south” were to roll, and only contract soldiers went there, there are those who prefer “not to lose the year”.

I personally knew those. Sick patriots. That is, they are patriots and will stand up directly for the Motherland if necessary, and on Sundays they strike airsoft no worse than the American Marines. But to serve: "Their bin is sick."

Increase the service life - will increase the number of "patients" at times.

But those who go to the army today are not very healthy either. In terms of the head. There is such a stupid malware, the USE is called. Everyone knows the essence of the program. Make a person as stupid as possible so that the look of a modern ATGM can arouse in him. He is not in “counter” and “battle”, as a result - a complete rejection of the world and understanding of the situation. Full collapse.

I myself have observed more than once, unfortunately.

Meanwhile, as the Minister of Defense again noted, a new technique is flowing to our army. And she really goes. And the contractor successfully mastered it.

But what will happen to those who (don't bring, of course) suddenly find themselves in this army after serving ten years ago? No, it is clear that in a couple of months, by analogy, studied earlier ...

And if these months will not be? There were also such situations in our stories.

A year of study, “a gallop across Europe”, if the first six months go to make a monk out of a monkey to make at least a fighting baboon - a luxury.

But today they come not only without any idea, AK-47 was not holding in their hands. I am silent about knowledge of exact sciences. And the officers, who every six months begin the process not even from the zero level, but are also silent from the “minus second”. Mostly obscenely silent.

On the problems of our education, by the way, it is best to talk with officers. They can tell a lot on how replenishment comes. And how you have to fight with him so that by the end of this year, they could at least know something and could.

And the conflict is resolved very simply. And I think that here I will not reveal the truth. Return to the Soviet system NVP in high school. And the previous defeat of the sabotage hotbed, called the modern education system.

Well, after all, utter nonsense, spend half a year of time and government money to acquaint a young individual with a gun, gas mask and OZK. This can be taught in advance. Not only collect-disassemble the machine for speed (although it is also useful), the store to teach equip! OZK correctly fasten on yourself.

Well, not every school. In the center of primary training, one per district to do.

I spied the idea on the training ground of the 20th Army. They made a huge training ground. They brought a dozen there tanks, Armored personnel carriers, infantry fighting vehicles and guns. And now only soldiers are brought in for training.

The same is in the cities. What do you need such a center? A dozen old machines, a bucket of training cartridges. Machine gun. And the old BTR or BPM, to learn to sit down, land. So that already in the army they would not break their foreheads. And OZK. Everything. And a couple of normal retirees.

And the opportunity at least once to shoot five patrons. In the Kursk region do so, I saw.

And at the output we will receive not a vegetable hodgepodge, which the basics should be taught, but at least something that understands "ordinary untrained". But the savings of three months are obvious. And this time can be used on more necessary things.

But for this you need to do something with the Ministry of Non-Education. And we must do it today. Shoigu clearly understands this.

What is the point, that we have “Armata” and many other scary words, if there are no intelligent crews and technicians for them? And again a bad picture is drawn with T-72 and other Soviet attributes?

Not “Javelin” is terrible “Armata”, no. A modern tank is terrified with bulging lamb eyes of the one who, in theory, would have to sit in it and complete the task. Fighting.

By the way, this rake in the Donbass normally came in due time. Tanks naotbivali, and sense? There are tanks, there is fuel, there is a BC. Crew no. The tractor driver, of course, will move the tank, the question is how? Not very good.

In general, if you recall Lenin's phrase, about the fact that you need to learn military science in this way, then you need to learn. And you need to learn. In advance, as it was in the Soviet Union.

Then, exactly with the successors of Sergei Kozugetovich, the head will be much less sore.

      Only 2 years is the most optimal period of military service! Half a year of intensive training in training, a period sufficient to learn how to operate complex models of military equipment! The training methods developed from the time of the Soviet Army are unmeasured - they only need to be reanimated and that’s all! The exam has nothing to do with it at all!

          Quite right, but that would run less and better even fly a bullet to the draft board, the state should create all the conditions, preferences, benefits, etc. for those who have served.

          Personally, I am for the revival of the NVP, instead of this misunderstanding born in the bowels of the mine. education called OBZH.

            As far as I remember, from those times when I worked at school: OBZH - taught from grade 5. НВП - structurally should be included in OBZh for grades 10-11. In fact, there is an NVP only if the teacher is a retirement, then the kids both shoot and take apart the machine, collect, and throw grenades ... Only this rarely happens ...

              Merlin, but in my school years I was led by the most active officers on the network. One, I remember, was the paratroopers, who had been treated for a year after a spinal fracture. Another served five years in Yakutsk and then taught with us for three years. That is, approximately in this way and restore everything. If you served on Alexandrovsky Island, then go to school or college if you wish. Or after injuries, injuries, illnesses, too, do not fire immediately, but wait a year or two and ask them to teach the children.

                This is what I had in mind. When he was in high school, he himself was introduced by a retiree - he was a severe man. And most importantly, he interestingly told, drove to the shooting and military schools and then we liked this subject. I think even now it will be more interesting for young men to learn from a person with army experience.

          Smart youth in Belarus do not join the army, they mow their priorities and tasks.
          For me, calling a kid into the armed forces is generally stupid to expect something good from him. The conscript will always find a way to express his attitude to the service, or at best turn on the toggle switch "".

              A similar case is a little more than 20 years ago. Symptoms of dementia "put" a lad, attracting a familiar psychiatrist. Delivered, successfully "slanted" - received a white ticket with the corresponding entry. Now, being an 40-year-old man, he does not even dream of getting a job more than a courier. And even by courier far from everywhere they take it. From his own words: "I picked up the whole 1.5 of the year, but lost my whole life."

            It is necessary to put a filter in the civil service and in career growth - through military service with the following service characteristics, and something will go. You can, like the United States, give a privilege for admission to a university and free preparatory courses. If desired, you can reasonably well motivate for the service. But this should be a state concern, and not the initiative of single fanatics.

        Nonsense. The optimal and minimum service life, well, when you really prepare a fighter for military high school and he also serves in the troops - 5 (five) years. The rest is murky sobs. That is, in fact the same contract. With conscripts of the year for the eyes in the acting units, BUT on the condition that you prepare it according to the same VUS BEFORE serving in DOSAAF and military departments fully, as was conceived even in the USSR since OSAVIAHim, and then, after a year urgent, ascribe it by profession, as it is in the USA in the National Guard. Here you have the mobile reserve. But this is a constant, boring work with personnel, it’s easier to recruit “soldiers”, and then whine - the school did not prepare them for the “school of life.”

            Here the question should be divided into two parts. First: Training of officers, sergeants and ensigns. The army then rests on the latter. Schools for the training of such sergeants and warrant officers are needed with a balanced and effective program, without the Unified State Examination and the rest of obscurantism, that is, on the basis of Soviet developments, of which there are three wagons and a cart. According to the officers ... Suvorov and Nakhimov schools need more. At the same time, raising the level of training in them to the level of good universities. That is, again, the question of the prestige of such institutions in general arises. In tsarist Russia and in the USSR it was prestigious, now not.
            Second question: this is a question of training soldiers. But here the problem arises of the entrepreneurial level of knowledge. And we return to school, where the current training program for future recruits is in a deplorable state. And here I agree with the respected AVT ... you need to revive DOSAAFs, popularize this movement, return the TRP standards, work towards historical and patriotic movements, such as the NEMAN group . Again, perhaps this looks ridiculous and wild for someone, but I am convinced that it is necessary to return the pioneer movement in the same way, the October Communists and Komsomol members ... let it be called differently, but the idea itself is very correct. It is necessary to direct young people in the direction that will give us a good conscript, and not a disabled person with the platypodia of the third eye.

                The rules of the TRP, which were under the USSR, 60-70 years and those that are now are different concepts in principle. A rare student will pass the TRP standards of the 70s. It's not about the badges, but about physical education and the health of young people.

                  Now the TRP is also difficult to pass. In the 80s I passed both the TRP and VSK level 1, my son passed the “Golden Badge” the year before last. Now the order for the mark is signed by the Minister of Sports. And pass is problematic. I have a young guy living above the floor, ZMS for wrestling, European champion, so he couldn’t pass the gold badge, he didn’t manage to swim. I also asked: why do you need it? Well, that was ... By the way, passing to swimmers is much easier. My "child" with a large margin fulfilled everything. True, he is an MS in swimming.

                  According to the military education system, it seems to me it was more correct as in the 50-60s. Military schools were average 3-year, and only naval and some were higher. Then the academy, 5 years old, higher education, and then everything else. My father went through this scheme. When his father studied at the Academy (Kharkiv VIRTA, the head was the artillery marshal Bazhanov), participants in the Vietnamese and Cuban events, order-bearers studied with him in a group. Not blind copying, but the principle of gradual education would be correct to apply, well, it seems to me that way.
                  For example, when I was studying (beginning of the 80s), flight and political schools had 4 years of study, higher education. Naval, engineering and a number of command schools - 5-year. Aerotechnical - average 3 year. I was always surprised that for a "tower" it could be for 4 years, especially among the political leaders.

                  Below I read about the number of Suvorov schools. At the beginning of the 80s there were few Suvorov schools, Nakhimovskoe was generally one in St. Petersburg. Upon graduation, the students entered specialized schools without exams, and were distributed according to the results of their studies. Suvorovites entered the naval with passing exams, we had several of these guys. The name of the Nakhimovites was funny - "crucian carp" (first year, corresponded to the 9th grade of the school) and "pythons" (graduates).

                    Respected Andrey NMYou probably forgot that in schools you gave higher education in a civilian specialty, and a higher military officer had the right to name in the column about his education only after graduating from the academy. As for civic education in schools, our Novocherkassk Higher Military School of Higher Education and Science gave the country communications engineers. Even my classmate always laughed that he became a pilot minus an engineer (a diploma engineer pilot).

                      Well I do not know. In my diploma both specialties are recorded, both military and civil. But the diploma supplement is still in the personal file. When we entered the second higher, we were made an extract from the application on the necessary subjects with the permission of the competent authorities. I then wrote a report on permission to study. This was already in the early 90's. The three of us then went to the economy, including the commander of our unit. They passed everything externally, instead of 3 years they studied a little over a year. Well, here the commander was a locomotive, thanks to him, studied at night.

And if you mess up, it’s not only what you get from the commanders, but then he’ll fly from his father. And even more so if there are specific specialties such as submarine rocketers.

            And how many served after the war? Do not strain - army -3, fleet -4. This is despite the fact that Stalin proposed 5 and 7. But it was considered unnecessary to take out such an amount of the male population from the national economy, and Kuznetsov said it was certainly good in the Navy 7, but a lot for conscripts. So the magic of 2 years appeared only in 1967.

                  I disagree. And categorically. Crews, as well as officers and sergeants, must be of different ages for the transfer of experience and quick training on the example of old-timers. Arriving at the service, young officers from the schools know by heart how and what to do, but the old battalion commander takes them to the park or to the director and for half an hour teaches the practical alignment of day and night sights and shooting machine guns at a pretty penny with 4 rounds, a screwdriver and a 19 key on 22.

        Optimal or not, but, of course, it’s better to train a soldier from a conscript than a year minus a weekend and leave.
        In addition to quite difficult to master the technique, for military service the young man needs to be tempered morally and physically.
        To make a good infantryman (shooter), given the requirements for his endurance, courage, shooting training for various small arms, is no easier than, for example, a radar operator.
        For a year, it makes no sense to call in combat units, only in training centers. Then, either in stock or on a contract.
        To reduce the burden on the military budget, some positions in the rear that do not determine combat ability (cooks, some drivers, service personnel) can also be replaced in the combat units by ready-made specialists called up from the "citizen" or employees who are called up for a valid military time .
        The problem is not simple, requiring wise leadership: here is the improvement of the organizational structure, and the finalization of the order of service, and financial issues, etc.
        After all, now in the ground forces up to half or more are soldiers of military service, soldiers of them not of the highest rank.
        And, God forbid, a large-scale conflict (with the same banderlogy) happen?

        What is half a year of intensive training? Half a year is the minimum that you would be admitted to the tank. Further, the study of everything else firing, rap, rep, communication. Further, many do not take into account camouflage, survival in the forest, strategy, tactics, etc. This is all 3-5 years of intensive preparation throughout the period and a very large volume of theory. They are not ready to learn such a volume even by profession thinking about their future, but then they should spend so much effort on training as a tankman, and it is quite likely that this knowledge will not be useful from the word at all. Yes, you need to be diversified and be able to the more the better I agree. My opinion is a training ground, a machine gun, a field exit, a charter, a parade ground, a barracks, a company, colleagues, and a year of urgency. More from conscripts will not be extended!

        It’s possible to train a normal soldier in a year, but it’s possible to get only two oxen in two. The author of the article is right, much depends on the initial preparation, both in the army and in the university. And it depends on the command staff. And now, in some military units, conscripts have been doing nothing for a whole year, and the officer is thumping. Of course, this is not often found, but still there, I have come across this and from my comrades I know. And in such conditions, I don’t want to lose two years either. And by the way, to get into the normal treble, the garter also needs money. Unfortunately, there are actually more problems than what is considered in the article.

        Well, let's say six months is only the second half, although m. something had already changed, but when I happened to serve, the first period was recruited up to June, so there were two months left for classes, no more, but the autumn draft was studied mainly for six months. IMHO, you need to balance the time of mastering the equipment and coordinating the units with the specifics and think hard, and then introduce a differentiated service time, and in order not to create a bad trend due to the difference in the service life at some stage, this difference should be compensated with money or other pluses and privileges.

        I think that two years with the current development of technology is not enough.
        When the term of military service was reduced in 1967, this was largely due to the reduction of the army. Then the 2 of the year was considered acceptable (it was 3), the Navy was made 3 of the year urgent (it was 4), later, and the Navy was reduced to 2. At the very least, when working DOSAAF, elementary military training in schools, it was possible to manage this, but, in any case, one year for a country like ours is not enough, even considering resuscitation of training before serving in the army. It’s not even the case that the equipment has become more difficult, rather, on the contrary, it has become somewhat easier when automatics, computers, start to solve a lot. The problem is that there are fewer healthy guys suitable for service in the army and navy, and the only solution here is to use the best ones longer, that is, increasing their lifespan to 3-5 years. If you can find healthy and fit to serve under the contract for 5 years, then it is possible to find conscripts for the same period, moreover, with the motivation to serve for the idea, on constitutional duty, and not for the promised grandmothers. Naturally, we need "gingerbread", bonuses and benefits, prestige, which, nevertheless, will be much more efficient and cheaper than contract servicemen, the main thing will be a planned update, replenishment of the mobilization reserve. What to do with the others who are not fit, do not need, simply, a hose and a net, let these 5 years (or more) work out to the army fund, pay to those who really serve. In the end, the constitutional duty concerns everyone, everyone should be affected, if a war happens, all are lame, slanting and even women will work for the front, for the defense of the country, let it be so initially - the best in the army, all the rest for the army, there is a "front" and "rear", this is the best scheme for constitutional duty, including girls. After an emergency, you can recruit and overtime members (if you will, contract soldiers). In addition, those who are not suited to serve on 3-5 urgent years ("Rear") may well take the oath after short-term training courses, such as the course of the "young fighter" at the place of residence, after and work out the army fund, replenishing the military budget , funding those who will serve 3-5 years. That's all, the end of the problem with those who want to "mow and hammer", hemorrhoids with "alternative service", you do not want, you can not - pay those who serve in your place. That's all the decision that you need to see, making a bet on a comprehensive recruitment of the army, with universal conscription, up to the lame and oblique, even to women (who achieved equal rights, so you get, in Israel, women liable for military service, and nothing). Add to this the school military training, DOSAAF, courses in civil defense enterprises, and everything should work out.

      Regarding this film, I can explain that it was shot by military police. They always do this now, in order to fix, so to speak, the fact of violation of the uniform of clothes. and, again, emphasize the need for its structure in the ranks of the Moscow Region. And the soldier in this form most likely simply should have been transferred to the place of his service. after treatment in the infirmary, where he lost everything. And we have such a picture every day near the checkpoint, where the police hang around all the time.
      As for the appearance of the Zoldat, this is largely due to the form. The one that we had, I liked more. The cap with ear flaps with its holes for ventilating the ears is especially scary now.

    ---------------------------
    I think that 1,5 is enough, because the remaining six months are devoted to embroidering epaulettes, sewing axelbands and carefully collecting archives about their military exploits, which the Ministry of Defense and the Commander-in-Chief ignored. Well, and if, according to the article itself, then in Soviet times the quality of draftees varied greatly. But then there were more rural and provincial youth in general, and the army actually stood on it. In general, I found myself in a unique situation when in the training half of the platoon was from Muscovites and half from Ukrainians, though from the eastern and central regions. A couple of Muscovites, moreover of Jewish nationality, were generally little adapted to this life. For Simakovich, ceremonial boots were a revelation, my mother bought him then fashionable Velcro sneakers, and I had to learn to tie shoelaces. Another already had some degree of obesity and the unit commander ordered him to just wind circles on physical exercises and by the end of training he noticeably built, the regiment was proud of this result. There was also a shot from some Vinnitsa collective farm like Kalinichenko. He was already 24 years old, he was ill with leg motility, his legs were cut by the reaper, yes, don’t be surprised. How did he get into the army? I went to the district, "piishov to the military commissar and having said, take me to the army. Wuxi (in the sense of friends) also served men of treba." And so, "having been on the combine, smag beer and women having," as they say.

Understand that you need to learn constantly, throughout life is not until everyone reaches.

    We consider the study month 25 days. Ten hours a day is 250 hours. For three months, 750 hours. 750! Learn only practice. The pinnacle of soldier's science is skills in working with weapons or with weapons. Skills should develop automatic (sensory). And excess knowledge will only interfere. Only teach what is needed in battle. Therefore, of course, the soldier is told about the "thousandth" formula, but they are not allowed to bring the machine to normal combat. Until now, I don’t know how the “linearization” block works and where the “weight compensation” signals come from in ATGMs, but this did not prevent me from making launches at the time.

      In the “training” we were “driven” quite well ... as a result, six months later, I, a specialist of the 3 class, could independently work with the ZAS equipment, “pair” it with various communication means, and also could shoot from a machine gun and get in in a PCP kit We also studied equipment block diagrams (not secret), and it came in handy! I had to urgently repair the control panel myself. So .... to know your "weapons", from the inside "is highly desirable!

    Recently returned from the ranks of the armed forces of the Russian Federation. served in the motorized infantry brigade ZVO, I won’t write the part number, I’ll just write in the brigade 2 battalions on the BTR-82A and 1 battalion on the BMP-3 (who in the subject will understand what kind of part). Position held all year and in reserve: deputy commander of a combat vehicle - gunner operator. I have never seen a BMP-3 live, I wasn’t inside; in general, these posts are staffed by military personnel “half-year-olds” who arrived from Mulino. From the AK-74M fired only at the KMB. Weapons were seen only by servicemen entering the guards and garrison outfits. Most of the service was occupied by stupid sitting on the Central Committee or in the KD, conscript sergeants were engaged in educational work. Every month I handed over 1000 rubles for the needs of a company. The processor that was issued at the military registration and enlistment office was immediately taken away and I didn’t see it anymore, dry packs too (they are later sold in units of 200-250 rubles). If you wanted to go on dismissal, you had to pay the company commander, or the political officer of the battalion. VKPO bought the summer uniform for himself, since he didn’t want to go in a torn Serdyukov figure; her soldiers called it “elephant”. By the way, summer berets (who were issued at the military registration and enlistment office) were already killed by March, they had to buy new ones, they survived until early July. So comrades, all the same, most of you have a rather vague idea of ​​today's armed forces (namely, infantry, this is really meat), everything is much worse than the author of the article describes. If I have specific questions about the service, I will answer with pleasure.

    But in principle, can a non-combatant army be combat-ready? No matter how you look at the history, they seem to cook, teach, do the best weapons (according to the creators) in the world, but the war begins and the army is not ready, and as always for absolutely objective reasons, you see the war was not the way we imagined it )))

    For some reason, the author did not address the question of how much time IN THE YEAR it is precisely the training of young soldiers. I would like to know the specific number of hours for vocational training, combat training, etc. The article is too general, as always there is little specificity. As for school education, it should be noted that in the school curriculum there is not a single subject that would familiarize students with TECHNOLOGY. Many (not all) modern schoolchildren have absolutely no idea how a diesel engine differs from ICE, etc. Technical illiteracy is becoming the norm in modern life, but in the Army, a technically illiterate person poses a real danger to others.

    Until recently, he worked as a teacher in one of the centers for training specialists for the Navy. A four-month course in my specialty is 90 hours, of which 50 hours are theoretical training and 40 hours are practical classes. In the best case, I was given 10-15 hours for theory and 5-6 for practice, the composition of the students rarely exceeded 50% of the composition of the trained group. The rest of the time, cadets built something, ground paths and parade ground, provided competitions and prepared contests, worked at summer cottages of the Navy Research Center of the Navy, were ill, etc. Of the total number of trained cadets capable of perceiving military science and somehow working with weapons , there was no more than 25-30%, the rest were completely "sucks", but almost everyone passed the final exams (the heads of the training cycles, following the instructions of the leadership, chose 1-2_x "doubles", and not always the worst, declared them not passing the exams, but all equally released to the fleet Why and who needs such "warriors"?

    I don’t know how in the army, but I have not enough service for two years on the submarine. Someone comes to the ship, half a year of training is behind him, and in his eyes is a complete “zero”. For six months now, with this goblin, you have been studying equipment, systems, maintenance of compartments, its management. You take offsets on "admissions to the shift", "stand alone. Management of your office," you recall physics and mathematics with him. Another control is from constant to periodic, what it knows and how it can do. And after a year of crawling through the holds, you understand that his report from the compartment means that he is no longer a Goblin, but a fighter and did everything as he reported. And then you realize that he has 1,5 years behind him and after 6 months he will leave you. AND EVERYTHING FIRST. New goblin.

    We are paying for the populism of our predecessors. After all, the hedgehog is understandable, the equipment will only become more complicated, and the service life has been taken and reduced. Earlier and for six months, training was not assy obtained. Yes, study in them also needs to be changed, made specific, intensive ... Remembering my first 6 months, I can say that you can meet 3-4. But 6 was determined, regardless of the complexity of the specialty. There is nothing wrong with increasing the service life, only on one condition - the SOLDIER must engage in combat training.

    The problem of training military personnel is long overdue. They only try to solve it by half measures, but radical transformations are needed.
    A fighter in the Chechen Republic who completed the 3-month training course in combat ability was equal to our soldier 2's year-old, and trained in the 5 monthly program was in no way inferior to a military university graduate - lieutenant, or even exceeded him in practical actions. True, in the fighting of the 95 spring in the mountainous part of Chechnya, our conscripts showed themselves very well, which Maskhadov noted with surprise for himself.
    Therefore, training methods we may have, as Zyablitsev writes, but there is no training itself. Only war takes into account. It's a shame, comrade officers.

    The training of soldiers begins with the training of officers. People who know how to teach are not frequent. IT IS TIME TO INCREASE, if desired, the service life of the trainers. And the younger commanders too. And the selection of cadets to conduct stricter. Selecting stable, calm guys. Organize the possibility of a problem-free transfer from universities wanting .V Military schools. It is necessary to organize, probably, a development department in the Ministry of Defense, and it is not possible to solve problems within its framework. It is IMPOSSIBLE to increase the time.

    The author’s suggestions are bullshit, I explain on the fingers:
    1) The author proposes either to increase the service life to 2 years, or the creation of military regional training centers (or all together).
    Why do I think that this is nonsense - the army has discredited itself in the 90s and it will never be able to wash off from it, they rowed everyone in the military enlistment offices, including invalids, drug addicts and lunatics ... to prove that you were not fit, it was impossible to take conscripts with me without me, with a broken spine, once I saw how a conscript was taken in the vegetative state, so the "doctors" opened the champagne for joy and screamed in full throat that this plant will serve the motherland ... You all know about the attitude to conscripts in the military enlistment office, conscript = disenfranchised having no rights. (I was recently at the Moscow military registration and enlistment office, so there on the bars and the door to the castle locks remotely from the cell, as I went to prison). If the conscript is treated like a slave, then what attitude will he have towards the army?
    About 2 years of service is nonsense, first of all, that for 1 year, that for 2 years they won’t teach how to shoot from a machine gun, because they won’t teach (this is about 5 rounds of ammunition at a shooting range, etc.), okay, you can still prepare a soldier somehow, but there is NO specialist , should not be taught in the army but in special military schools. And the youth does not want to study in such schools, not everyone likes voluntary slavery and barracks in these schools ...
    About 2 more years - 18 years is the time when a young man should get on his feet, build his life, and he will be sent to the army, from where he comes dumb and unable to work in the specialty he studied, after the army he will either go to the police or to the guard , can do nothing else ...

    Regarding regional training centers, the author suggests forcibly bringing meat to these centers and forcibly training them there. I think from under the stick the effectiveness of such training will be zero. Of course, he doesn’t directly say that they will drive kicks to these centers, but in fact it is. This will be a cluster of embittered masses pulled out of their comfortable little worlds and forcibly shoved into this center, I think the situation there will not be conducive to learning ...

    How to do it right:
    It is necessary for the government to fork out and create shooting clubs (many subsidized clubs) where children will go voluntarily and free of charge, where they will be trained in shooting, tactics and arrange war games, training can be organized according to the type of life safety with an in-depth study of the techniques of means of destruction and survival in a military conflict , survival in the forest, hiking, etc.
    People need to be interested and learn, they will want themselves with the appropriate quality of training.
    Incidentally, the creation and spending on such clubs will be less than the cost of training soldiers in the barracks ...

    Even six months later, conscripts in their bulk are the universal sadness.

    My son served in the communications forces. On the next visit, I begin to "torture" him: - "Well, warrior, tell me what you learned?"
    - "Yes, dad, I'm sitting looking at the screen, if so, (draws a clumsy sinusoid), then this is normal, but if so (the same clumsy straight line), then this is bad, I need to call an officer!"

    In terms of the head. There is such a malicious program for stupidity, the exam is called.

    for this we need to do something with the Ministry of Education

    In the prewar years (30-40 of the last century, the USSR had a military training program, every citizen was obliged to learn the basics of military affairs .. And the calls were “Komsomolets - by plane”, “Voroshilovsky shooter”, etc.
    And at us DOSAAF lets out packs of drivers (on a paid basis).
    “Yunarmia” may be good, but not everywhere, the TRP is also mainly focused on sports.
    (And schoolchildren without a cell can not navigate in the forest)
    Conclusion: It’s time for our deputies to stop doing crap (such as changing the size of road signs and sticking stickers on cars), and take up the country's defense capabilities, accept and implement the pre-draft training program not on paper but in practice! And in the government there are fewer "managers" and to select professionals by industry. (Madame in education clearly does not pull, although there were certain hopes for her).

    Then build up professionalism in his army specialty (another six months) + combat duty somewhere in a "hot" spot (the Caucasus, probably). Another half a year.
    And about complex equipment like Armata - this is only for contractors.

    Military equipment has become more complicated - of course. But not towards its use. And of course, the recruits are not annoyed not by 2 instead of 1, but by the conditions of these 2 or 1. Well, let's say - not absolutely annoying.
    The horrors of the exam ... well, otherwise graduates will understand too much. Think about it. And the training system itself somehow does not imply what was under the USSR. When the soldiers for some reason (!) Coped with tanks and self-propelled guns and with everything else. Those. only very talented teachers can be interested in - such are far from the majority. And to force, but how to force? But we continue to strive for democratic values ​​(God forgive me!), And is it really possible for them to leave children on the ass with a ruler or leave after classes?

To recruit there instructors-reserve officers with normal salaries as in Soviet times and to resurrect the initial training of combined-arms specialties and then specialists of special forces .Because the modern DOSAAF is currently a profanation! Appoint the chairman of DOSAAF as the Deputy Defense Ministry of the Russian Federation, to entrust the preparation of mobilization resources to this organization.

And it's all. No second echelons, no evacuations, people and industry, bomb shelters and other things.

To learn how to manage a complex system (for example, air defense), you don’t have to live in the barracks and 80% of the time spent on floor cleaning and other related activities came to the army and until 8:30 you learn to protect the sky.

    to learn how to fight, not so much time is needed. During the Second World War or in Afghanistan, soldiers learned to fight in two three months, after having truthfully completed the course of a young soldier. They served in the USSR for two years, only most of the time they didn’t engage in combat training, but they lurked about nonsense. An average fighter can be trained in six months, who will already be able to make the right decision, if only the process is organized correctly. It would be much more interesting for the boys to drive on tank-fields, to draw squares, not on the parade ground.
    But still, you can teach a soldier to fight only on the front line. The task of military service in peacetime is to learn how to use weapons and equipment. Everything else is comprehended by personal experience ...

Since the president delivered the famous speech in Munich in 2004, it was necessary to return immediately. Soviet children, and already at school to separate children according to specialties - to whom, according to physical, psychological, intellectual data, to landing, to whom to tankmen, to whom to submariners, etc. And when a guy with such an initial base comes to the army, in a year, if you do not dig from here before lunch, and do not sweep a platz with a crowbar, do not paint grass, etc., you can make a specialist.

And such “Gavriks” go to vocational schools after the 9th grade and play the fool there. And there is no need to compare with the USSR; a C student knew and was able to do more then than a C student does now. What can you teach a guy if he doesn't want to learn?

The training methods developed from the time of the Soviet Army are unmeasured - they only need to be reanimated and that’s all! The exam has nothing to do with it at all!

    If there is no mixing of conscriptions, then yes, otherwise the same rake with hazing will happen, when the lion's share of the service time is spent on "graters" between recruits and sub-grandfathers.
    We know, we went through it, nothing good came of it.

    Shoigu, by the way, has said more than once that a year is not enough for the normal training of a modern soldier
    Increasing the service life is an additional expense, and not a small one at that. As already noted by the discussion participants, it is necessary to prepare the future soldier in civilian life. Disciplines in military specialty must be included in the lesson plan of the educational institution in which the young man is studying. A year of service will be spent as practical training.
    Also, as an experiment, you can try the “weekend soldier” program, in which you can involve men of middle and even older age categories (if health allows). Classes at the military base on weekends. The more classes a participant attends, the more money will be transferred to his account. Only participants with good performance can continue to participate in the program. We will receive an additional prepared reserve.

    what years? the conscript doesn’t need anything. hurry home, sleep, eat, and get rid of the dust. the army must be professional. you say: “Where can I get money?” Yakusha, resigning from the post of president of Russian Railways to the post of governor of the Kaliningrad region. received a diamond parachute worth 98 million rubles. Do you get the hint?

    Who should be repressed for the insanity of the Unified State Examination? The whole country howled with insanity, but Minister Fursenko introduced it, and Minister Livanov introduced it even deeper. Where are they now? The commander-in-chief's shoulder straps became more inconspicuous, but more influential - and their watches became cooler. They sold dirks under Yeltsin. What to do about the problem? with conscripts? It is necessary to hold officer meetings on this topic and adopt resolutions - demand urgent measures and corrections, methodological and personnel. In schools, not only the NVP needs to be URGENTLY restored, but also the GROB - civil defense course. The war in Syria and the LDPR has shown the VITAL NEED for trained reserves for both the army and civil defense. And the service life of conscripts URGENTLY needs to be extended from 3 to 6 months, with the payment of salaries for positions in combat crews, crews, units and units. IN ORDER.

    Don’t you think that there is no need to get involved in civilian life and actually teach in the army? And don’t turn conscripts into parade ground sweepers and snowdrift smoothers. What exactly in the army is it necessary to give maximum practice, and not a bunch of theory, without real application? Listen to what those who recently returned from work have to say. Nothing has changed - soldiers are mainly taught anything but not to fight.

    Well, first of all, it’s worth deciding: Who should leave after military service? What level? What result do you want?

    So, in order to become a professional, two or four years is not enough; any person will tell you that even in 2 years you won’t be able to get into good physical shape. This is assuming we are talking about an ideal recruit. Everyone wants it quickly, but it doesn’t happen. In the modern world, training continues as long as the fighter is able to learn. To get something useful, in my opinion, it takes about 5 years, even for a shooter (machine gunner). During this time, he will receive the basic (!!!) skills necessary to perform a combat mission and the appropriate physical form. We won’t talk about anything more complicated.

    And all this is subject to normal training in the unit and the appropriate candidate. If you don’t know, in many parts of our country there is no normal training in the HF, I heard things from the guys who served that made my hair stand on end.

    This is provided that the fighter has fitness category A, and not, as it often happens, an ulcer or scoliosis that was overlooked by the military commissar. We know how they look at the fact that 10% of the draft can be written off in the first months.

    And now, I want to remind you, the army is underfunded. Reviews are being received indicating specific HFs where the new conscription cannot be dressed in a uniform, it simply isn’t there. And so the conscripts spend 3 months doing nothing in the “office” that was issued to them at the military registration and enlistment office. What are you going to teach in such conditions? On what? Solar fuel, cartridges, allowances, ATGMs, etc. cost money. A lot of money. And today our clothing allowance is only officially underfunded by 51%!!!! What kind of two years of service and professionals can we talk about when today the army is unable to provide soldiers with uniforms and boots that do not fall apart?! request

    https://twower.livejournal.com/2189962.html

    So introducing a 2-year service period will not at all solve the problem of low training of conscripts. 2 years is still not enough and expensive. But it will give birth to new ones

    1. The conscript will be taken out of economic activity not for one year, but for two. That is, he will not work for an additional year, receive a salary that is at least 5 times higher than the current salary of a conscript, and spend it on goods.
    2. The conscript will have twice as many reasons to decline. This is understandable, even in one year you can earn much more money (capitalism), move up the career ladder, etc.

    But here all the “soldiers’ mothers” and the like will definitely howl, and dancing around the military registration and enlistment offices and medical commissions will begin again. Bribes and stuff.


    Now there is no need for any committees of soldiers’ mothers, much less bribes, etc. Now there are entire law firms, including federal ones, which for a very reasonable sum will make sure that the military registration and enlistment office issues a military ID card with category “B” to a conscript. There are lawyers in military registration and enlistment offices, but they have the same name from lawyers, so the office always “does” them. And here Vasily, with the profession of a programmer who receives 60 thousand rubles a month, will go into the army only at the call of his heart, and if he doesn’t have one, then being a citizen is much more profitable.

    What to do? There are many different options, but they all come down to one thing - money. But today we don’t even have them for berets; soldiers either buy them with their own (that is, often their parents’), or even take out tarpaulins with foot wraps from the storeroom. Although they are poor, they are not to the same extent as the current ankle boots.

    To make a person as stupid as possible, so that the sight of a modern anti-tank system would make him dumbfounded. He is not present in “counter” and “battle”, and as a result - a complete rejection of the world and understanding of the situation.


    Even I know that there are anti-tank systems in the “battle”. And not alone. Apparently closer to young people lol

    NVP? Have you seen the current OBZh (KBZh)? Have you seen this horror when over the years of training not a single skill is taught, and all the students do is copy the next lecture on the topic into their notebooks? And then they forget. Have you seen it? I have seen. And with such quality, after the introduction of the NVP, little will change, except that a broken MMG of a Kalashnikov assault rifle will appear in the classroom, which can be disassembled in a single sneeze and the kids will show the standard on it.

      You propose to switch to 25 years of service. Basic technical skills can be taught in a year if you really practice it. Military service is not for the purpose of preparing an ideal warrior, military service is for the purpose of having mobilization potential if something happens. Anyone who has served in a special forces military unit for even ten years will not be a full-fledged warrior until he is faced with real combat operations. And conscripts can learn to fight in a real combat situation, sometimes faster than a super duper contract soldier...

        As you can see, I’m not suggesting anything. Simply because I don’t know the main thing, how much money the state is willing to spend on this, and I see that it doesn’t want or can’t spend it even on uniforms and boots. And I have a lot of hypothetical proposals, “the lip is not a fool.”

        And conscripts can learn to fight in a real combat situation, sometimes faster than a super duper contract soldier...


        I’ll just add, “And the few surviving conscripts can learn to fight in a real combat situation, sometimes faster than a super duper contract soldier.” Because all those who do not learn in the shortest possible time will simply die with a rather low efficiency.

            Not a single combat manual, even the most ingenious one, is capable of improving a fighter’s skills, not a single order is capable of giving a fighter the skills to carry it out effectively, etc. The same Suvorov was a brilliant commander, not because he only gave out brilliant orders, but along with brilliant orders he paid great attention to the training of soldiers.

            Elite troops can also be destroyed.


            Who are these elite troops? I can understand an elite unit, regiment, brigade, squad, but who the “elite troops” are is somehow not very clear.

              “Elite troops” is a rather strange concept - no doubt about it...
              Napoleon (who Bonaparte worked as the French emperor) had “old grumblers”, whom he knew by name. That is, the “old guard”, which dies but does not give up. Although there was also “young” and even “middle-aged”. The sarissophori of Alexander the Great (also worked as emperor, but somewhat earlier) were the elite of the Macedonian army... His hetaira...
              A little later - the Praetorians... Why not the elite?
              The point is not in the name, but in the skill. The same old guard of Napoleon (the elite of the elite) lost at Waterloo to the Scottish Guard - in a bayonet battle. Age, alas... Although, to be honest, the British heavy infantry at that time was a terrible force...
              Let's go further... assault troops of the German infantry of the 17-18 model - aren't they special forces? Those times?
              Next... The "guys" from Mannerheim's army (not the "cuckoos" about which many "songs" have been written) with Suomi machine guns and on skis (guys) - not special forces?
              I in no way deny your knowledge and professionalism. And the article itself is quite fascinating. But (in my opinion) “elite” (and special forces) can be considered those units or individual fighters in the same units who shoot better than everyone else, run better, and can do something else that is inaccessible to the rest...
              The elite is not the guard, although the concepts are “closed”. But there can’t be too many elites, alas... Just like the guards, by the way.
              If the Russian guard had not been “placed” in the Masurian swamps, it is unknown where the curve of history would have “taken” us...

                The point is that the “elite” is that the elite are the best of the best. What are the best? In their tasks. Compared to whom? Naturally, with those whose tasks are identical. You cannot compare non-identical tasks.

                That is why “elite troops” are something incomprehensible. Does this turn out, for example, that the Airborne Forces are more elite than electronic warfare? Or are GRU special forces more elite than the Strategic Missile Forces? Or maybe the Strategic Missile Forces are more elite than the RKhBZ? And this is provided that they cannot be compared purely physically due to the complete difference in the tasks. This is some kind of nonsense that turns out to be on the level of “a frying pan is better than a sewing needle.” Therefore, elite troops are by definition impossible.

                This is exactly the thought I put into my objection.

                Who are these elite troops? I can understand an elite unit, regiment, brigade, squad, but who the “elite troops” are is somehow not very clear.

    Thank you, Roman! After all, everything is correct!
    I remember the 80s. I studied at an excellent physics and mathematics school. NVP in 9th grade. Voenruk - retired lieutenant colonel. At first he pestered us with hairstyles, clothes... Then he found an approach. For 20 guys he gave out 10 AK-47s and locked the class. We were naughty, played, had fun, but all the standards, incl. blindfolded, they passed easily. I think even now I can handle partial disassembly and reassembly of an AK without any problems.
    In the summer they took us to training camp. I understood what infantry is. Receive a sapper shovel and the task of digging and equipping a shooting cell... Well, well, for those who didn’t go through this.
    Barbed wire. Having watched enough films, I thought that I had to crawl up to her and cut her with huge scissors. Yes, we were pushed into the attack, and there was that same wire in the grass. It's impossible to run. To fall means to rip everything off. Bang bang - you're dead.)))
    We were smart. They asked questions about the effective range of the AK-47 and M-16, which is better. Cheerful laugher. They explained that it would be nice for us to hit the target at 50m, and at 300m try to at least see the adversary.
    Well, a formidable attack with the cry “Uryayaya”. It didn't work out. Training attack at 500m over rough terrain. What a run, what a “Hurray”, we barely crawled to the training adversaries, it’s time to give up...))))

    Now seriously.
    You are completely right. The professional army perishes almost completely in wartime. Its task is to provide time for the mobilization and deployment of reserves.
    We washed ourselves in blood in 1941-42, when the regular army was defeated at the beginning of the war (there is no point in talking about the reasons) and the gaps were plugged by unprepared militias. Yes, they paid with their lives, giving them the opportunity to relocate industry to the East.
    Now the situation is similar. Who will replace the professionals? God bless her with the latest technology. We will fight with junk from storage warehouses. But who can? Personally, my level is AK...

    Bullshit is the desire to shave a young man again for two years! For two years a person will play the fool and not learn a damn thing for the reason that the command staff is too lazy to engage in training. Time is wasted on nonsense, and with this approach, even five and ten years will not be enough. We need control over the officers. During the years of my service, I remember the godless drunkenness of my father-commanders, half of whom I could gladly put against the wall. Now these are respected military pensioners, “heroic defenders” of the Motherland...

    learning is the most necessary thing. but in WWII the plane was the most complex piece of equipment, many started with “take-off and landing” and that’s how they reached Berlin. and rarely did anyone make it to the end of the war. The war was ended by the former "grasshoppers". Of course, our human resources are not the same, but I hope that much more importantly, the attitude towards “cannon fodder” has changed. although, if you remember the first Chechen war and Grachev’s... there may be many more of these in the headquarters. IF SOMEONE WOULD WRITE AN ANALYTICAL ARTICLE ABOUT THE STATE OF THE OFFICERS AND ESPECIALLY THE GENERALS - they have rebuilt their beer calluses, how many will potentially run to Mozdok for combat? PROBLEM! Our young people are different, and some of them will get to know electronic warfare and air defense FASTER - they are stationary in many respects. Moreover, as the designers assure, a person is only required to make a decision at the monitor - and the devil is not so terrible... troops based on movement are much more difficult to master. There are plenty of officers and admirals yelling obscenities on the Internet and this is clearly not a sign of EDUCATION and PROFESSIONALISM.

    I won’t say anything about where, but I came across conscripts being selected for the reconnaissance battalion, the best go there, but none of them stay for a contract - why should they be a soldier or a sergeant in the army? if they are officers in life, many are from the “tower”, others plan, contract soldiers are recruited from the “infantry” and no matter how much they are trained, they remain “second class”, as a result, a company of conscripts “makes” in all respects two companies of contract soldiers, yes Among the contract soldiers there are super professionals, guys who are confused in military affairs, but their platoon is enough for a battalion.

    Let's go in order:
    it is necessary to revive “military training centers” in schools or somehow indirectly for boys (don’t forget that schools are completely independent), by the way, in the West “scouts” take on some of these functions, this includes orientation and the provision of first aid. But military centers in which there will be non-combat-ready but real weapons are very necessary. As you correctly stated - let them at least understand where in the armored personnel carrier there is a “place for a headbutt”, etc. And these centers can be created under the jurisdiction of the Moscow Region, so that those who have given their health to the Motherland and will serve as an example will be sent to serve there on an honorable pension. After all, in addition to “holding the iron,” boys need to see a Living example of a person, no, a Soldier!! soldier
    But regarding the increase in the conscription period, you are extremely wrong. Let's be honest - it will be possible to transfer a tanker from a T64 to a T-72 or T-80 more or less in wartime conditions, but to "Armata" - NO, No. no chance. Moreover, it will be unrealistic to send technicians from the reserve to prepare the “Almaty” for battles. Especially for pilots and technicians, progress (replacement) there is so rapid that several spaced calls are no longer compatible. Therefore, the Summoning is really a “shaving” of pencils, which will not be capable of anything other than “die heroically” by throwing yourself under a tank with a grenade. And this must be understood from the very beginning and the very attitude towards conscription must be changed - reduce the load, so as not to cram the unsuitable into “empty heads”. fool Even though I am an absolutely civilian, I have an idea that a conscript must be “cut down” so that “resistance to orders” can be knocked out of him and at least somehow instilled in group action. That’s it, it won’t be possible to train him more in one year and, what’s more important, it’s useless. Why, yes because - the system of “calling up reservists” was buried, when 40 pot-bellied men, albeit almost all the time not regaining consciousness, were sober enough (don’t laugh) to try to get trained up to the new technology. I’m talking about the fact that an 18-year-old thinks only about women and grandmothers (money), but with age, the nonsense gradually wears off and the realization sets in that “what if suddenly, I don’t remember a damn thing and I don’t know how. How can I protect my family? ". good
    This is my second “harsh” thought, we need to think about the experience of the USSR and the USA regarding reservists. But not for reservists after a year of conscription (this is meat), but it may be prescribed by law that a reservist after, for example, 5 years of a contract good , so that even a small “penny” or benefit would go to him, but that there would actually be fees for retraining.
    But all of the above is possible only under a smart and caring government and the head of the country. sad Even if there are only a couple of scum in the Ministry of Economy or somewhere else, they will ruin the idea and ruin everything again, as it was before the collapse of the USSR. After all, it’s not just about money, a Russian person requires a sincere attitude and not “get off me,” which is what actually broke the USSR. So that even an individual soldier would feel that he is not for his pocket or for the mark on the form, here he is foolish and “playing at war.” So that everyone from top to bottom understands that War could happen even tomorrow. Whether it’s the Second World War or the “disintegration of 90” or Chechen terrorists - it doesn’t play the piano, death, horrors and tragedies in any case.
    To summarize: we need to give more powers and money to Shoigu, he will also create NVPs (at schools or urban centers) and destroy the norms by calling for them. Yes, because no matter what he undertook, he brought everything to fruition. good (and not like Chubais’s nanists)
