In the combat capability of the Russian army any doubts?

135
Lieutenant-General Viktor Sobolev in the issue of the Special channel YouTube channel questioned the ability of the existing Russian Armed Forces to repel the aggression of a serious opponent in any strategic direction in a tense military and political situation in the world.

According to Sobolev, in Syria, the Russian military did not have a serious experience in fighting, since they had to fight only with armed militants who did not have either powerful air defense systems or modern means of electronic warfare. The main merit in the success of the military operation in Syria, said the lieutenant-general, belongs exclusively to military advisers who helped restore the combat capability of the Syrian army.



The staffing of the majority of the Russian army with contract soldiers who do not have combat experience, combat training courses can lead our army to the fact that in the event of a serious military conflict, the armed forces of the Russian Federation may suffer huge losses, - said Victor Sobolev. To prevent this from happening, we need dramatic changes in the structure of the Russian army.

And the rest of the armies of the world have real experience in open battles with regular troops of other states?

What kind of changes does Lieutenant-General Sobolev propose? Video "Army without military."

          I was in Altai a month ago, border guards (contract soldiers, the Mongolian border) receive about 100 thousand, there are only foreign cars near the outpost in the parking lot, I didn’t even see our wheelbarrows, normally they don’t complain about them.

          You confuse labor and military relations ....
          Not every work is formalized by labor relations in accordance with the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, but also by individual Federal Laws (ex: Federal Law "On the State Civil Service of the Russian Federation", Federal Law "On the State Municipal Service in the Russian Federation"), I think according to which Federal Laws of military personnel serve in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and other military formations you yourself will find ....
          In addition, according to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, some citizens working in separate posts are not entitled to a strike (even with a delay in salary), etc.: air traffic controllers, etc.

                In general, it is "Conscription in the USSR, the honorable duty of Soviet citizens with arms in hand to defend the socialist Fatherland and to carry out military service in the ranks of the Armed Forces of the USSR. Military duty is legislatively enshrined in the USSR Constitution of 1936 (Article 132) and on the basis of it is regulated by the Law USSR on universal conscription of October 12, 1967. In accordance with this law, all men - citizens of the USSR - regardless of race and nationality, religion, education, residence, social and property status are obliged to perform active military service in the ranks of the Armed Forces of the USSR.

                Since at the dawn of the advent of this idea, only a post ensuring combat readiness was proposed, with regard to infantry — KO-KBM.

                    Yes, and to see this former battalion commander completely lagged behind life (again, the fact that the opponent was a battalion commander in reality, I doubt) just does not know even the simplest one in terms of mobility training and what difficulties now exist in this matter after Serdyukov pogrom.

                      According to the report. The general has long been excommunicated from the affairs of the military, his opinion is subjective, therefore, he cannot judge combat readiness and combat training. He does not disclose objective problems of the sun. And the facts cited are all on the lips. Nothing new. Regarding the acquisition and formation of mob reserves, the general also jerked, because he judged by old standards. The criticism of the general is directed not at the armed forces, but at something completely different.
                      Well, if you are still so enlightened, you should know the latest trends in combat training, which are very annoying in the army.

                        Well, yes, yes, of course .. all your scribble on this subject can be broken with one argument-Serdyukov destroyed the mobilization service in the troops. An attempt to restore it now. A miserable imitation, rather than a deal. Don’t know, keep quiet.

I graduated from college in 98. I've seen enough of all. And the mess found in all its glory. So then the soldiers of military service showed themselves in all their splendor. They ate carbite, swallowed needles. Cut their hands, hung themselves in public. In short, they did everything to send them home. Then the Dagestanis went, still some fun. Officers fired in batches. Until the end of the contract, the days were counted. Do you want to complete parts with such people? I personally believe that military service should be voluntary.

                  In general, it is "Conscription in the USSR, the honorable duty of Soviet citizens with arms in hand to defend the socialist Fatherland and to carry out military service in the ranks of the Armed Forces of the USSR. Military duty is legislatively enshrined in the USSR Constitution of 1936 (Article 132) and on the basis of it is regulated by the Law USSR on universal conscription of October 12, 1967. In accordance with this law, all men - citizens of the USSR - regardless of race and nationality, religion, education, residence, social and property status are obliged to perform active military service in the ranks of the Armed Forces of the USSR. "
                  Where is at least a word about some sort of service?

                  What did you get to the bottom of the terms, he is not a lawyer tea, the Constitution of the Russian Federation also says about the obligation:
                  Defense of the Fatherland is a duty and obligation of a citizen of the Russian Federation.

      For a long time the Victory in the War over another country is forged in the first days or even hours good - destroying its aviation, air defense or missile defense (if any), one of the parties "forges the pledge of inevitable victory", see Syria, where the insignificant (one-time) Aerospace Forces destroys opponents in marketable volumes. And it is not necessary to defend him that "this is just barmaley, but if it were NATO troops" - if it were NATO troops, but also without the slightest aviation and they only have MANPADS from air defense, then there would be "frags" significantly more (due to crowding and a large number of infantry that NATO can provide).

          Are there any objections in the sense of the information? Well, I thought so, well, okay, "I'll earn some money as a captain O": How is the "best army in the world" fighting now with the seizure of territories not in the case of a "punitive strike" - as I described, air defense is "cut out", then large-scale strikes on the centers directorates of the General Staff, division headquarters, for the main warehouses of fuels and lubricants and ammunition, Radars; after that, under the cover of fighters, attack aircraft finish off planes and airfields and proceed to finish off armored vehicles or deployed artillery; "Ironing" lasts for some time, until the arganized structure of the enemy troops is destroyed (this can be seen from the deployment or movement of large groups of troops or supplies) and only then a ground attack, with the cover of helicopters and attack aircraft. If serious resistance is found, no "full-length machine guns" are found, but suppression by aviation or artillery is applied !! Note ALL this without even mentioning nuclear weapons, but nuclear weapons will be "abandoned" only if Victory is 100% guaranteed !!! fool But in the event of a war between the country of NATO and Russia, nuclear weapons will certainly be used, except as I said "Russia's enemy will be guaranteed to be defeated with minimal casualties without the use of nuclear weapons." Moreover, in nuclear weapons, it is not so much radioactive contamination that is important, which is an ass itself, here "quick and guaranteed destruction" is more important. Remember the video from Syria and Ukraine when the "hail" raid or the bombing of the Aerospace Forces did not achieve 100% of the result, because even a small trench almost saves lives, but against nuclear weapons, not trenches, but a ditch, not every tank will protect.
          Here words from Vatnik's book come to mind "
          ..in the fighting area in the village, the sun was lit and a huge ball of fire illuminated the surroundings, expelling the blackness of the Ukrainian night. We stood rooted to the spot, and I reminiscently recalled a joke about / in case of a nuclear explosion, keep the machine gun outstretched /"

          No, it was not a nuclear weapon, it was the gas distribution station, there was a leak and mixed with the oxygen of the air when it "banged" it was essentially the same "vacuum bomb" feel ... It is important that if the enemy of Russia is, for example, Germany (I cannot imagine such an option), then missiles with nuclear warheads will go to Berlin in the first wave. Most likely, American bases with nuclear bombs, airfields, and hubs for transportation will cease to exist. troops, gas distribution hubs and electricity generators. Honestly, I don’t even suppose it is necessary to continue the war or immediately "call" Berlin and offer to accept from the "complete and unconditional" good tongue

        The fact is that the general "sucks everything out of his thumb" while the whole world, including military universities and the General Staff, have long since switched to rigorous mathematical models with a high probability of predicting military conflicts of varying intensity. For example, it is simply ridiculous to listen to his arguments about the combat use of the aerospace forces, especially considering that the Spektr software and mathematical complex has been successfully working and improving for more than a decade.

Participation in combat, if any, where and in what composition? Apparently you are just a theorist, otherwise you need to know that NATO is not primitive superiority over us, but overwhelming, including on a technical level. And here it is not necessary to watch cartoons about the dagger, but in a very serious way to strengthen nuclear weapons and to increase, increase, increase the training of drugs.

                And about the lieutenant general Sobolev, you can tell a joke.
                I used to sleep well because I knew they were protecting me. Then he joined the army. He began to sleep worse because he defended. Now I came from the army. I don’t sleep at all. I know how to protect

                But everyone, including Sobolev, judges the army and other officers exclusively within the framework of his experience, as the people say, "everyone thinks to the extent of his depravity."

                          When the alliance withdrew its troops from Europe, the airborne countries (you still read the Warsaw Pact, maybe you will understand what the allies are) entered NATO.
                          When the protégé of the current president of Russia stopped financing the army, our country lost its two main allies, the Army and Navy, and acquired a new generation, a new pharmacy of officers who cannot build Dagestani conscripts, and who have backaches and glitches from 160 h / g raids .

The main allies were 2 Army and Navy, by the way the ocean (450 surface ships and 3000 submarines), there were also VD countries, with very good armies. There was a buffer zone and a strike force group in Europe, with a strength of over a million. The flight time to any capital of the European member of NATO did not exceed 2 hours. I just told you a couple of strokes.

          I ask: "Do you know that the tables indicate the probability of hitting with an accurate shot, but in the manual for the machine gun it is recommended to shoot with a direct one, at which the probability is much lower? And everyone shoots exactly straight, because you cannot be accurate."

            In fact, everything is much simpler. A unit is taken in service with which the old-style systems are located and several tactical situations are modeled, which are then compared with real operations. This is how the model is verified. Then, changes are made to the model related to equipping with new types of weapons. Thus, a very high reliability of the research result is obtained.

      Correct assessment of army readiness at 100%. And the general says not in the context of "no combat experience, then we will lose", he says INSUFFICIENT TRAINING of troops, primarily pilots. Do we have that all pilots fly at the minimum (160h / y)? No! Or is it really a good result for 9000 sorties? Very weak. Or do we have constant combat training in our units? No. Only in some. There are certainly positive shifts in the army, but this is not enough, and more needs to be done than has been achieved, and victorious reports and embellishments in such a situation are harmful.

You can’t speak Russian, you start proving with facts, you get only defamation or just stupid things, and a lot of unreasonable minuses appear for your opinion, they were introduced on the eve of the pension reform Putin's support.

      So the limit of the Russian Federation is the Armed Forces (and other military units) of no more than 1,5 people ...

      Who is this clever invented this digital?

      This is a military science, you don’t know about it, your KA should know, because graduated from the Academy of the General Staff of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation ...
      But in order not to overwork the tabe, here is a link from this site from 2012:
      Based on the listed requirements with full mobilization deployment, the domestic Armed Forces should have from 2,5 to 3,5 million people, including from 0,6 to 1,5 million as part of groups that solve problems in one or two local wars in one or two strategic directionsand the rest are forces covering the border in other directions, systems of comprehensive support and management.
      Based on the required number of wartimes of 3,5 million and an average coefficient of mobilization deployment of 2,3–2,7 (based on the experience of the Second World War, conflicts of the second half of the XX - beginning of the XXI centuries), you can determine the minimum necessary composition of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in peacetime - 1,2-1,5 million people.

      https://topwar.ru/22535-obosnovanie-chislennosti-vs-rossii.html
      You comrade pk, do not be offended at a military school, you could not be taught the mobilization deployment and resources of the Russian Federation ...
      I wanted to sneeze at your so-called "civil society"- Things are stupid and unnecessary, useless in peacetime. Dangerous in wartime.
      at the expense of the tribunal, try. as if they themselves didn’t rumble there.
      And in wartime, members of "civil society" will babble incoherently and stupidly, at least a tribunal, at most a ditch

      How did you take the oath with such a worldview:
      Karl Marx и Friedrich Engels, German economists and sociologists:
      Civil society is a sphere of material, economic life and activity of people. It is it that is primary in relation to the state, civil life as a sum of diverse interests holds the state together.

      Those. Do you and the AC oppose the foundations of the state, do not share the ideology of the USSR (which gave you everything and the AC) and contradict Article 282 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation?
      Those. in the sense of the above, you do not give a damn about civil society, do not give a damn about all people?
      Do you serve KA?
      so slow down, controller ...

      Ham ...
      That you agree for the sake of something

      When you and KA agreed with everything in the 91st, I went to school ....
      and I, and that KA, have a profession, to defend the Homeland, you don’t understand this.

      This statement contradicts your previous statement about civil society ... and meanwhile, in the Military Oaths of the USSR and the Russian Federation, people are mentioned ....
      Accordingly, during the threatened period and during the war (no matter how intense it is), you and the spacecraft will shoot people at the ditch or bring them to the Military Tribunal ....
      I would like to hope that the KA does not share your thoughts about the multinational people of the Russian Federation ....

In addition, in any army there are some drawbacks in creating a combat-ready army, and contract soldiers may not be specialists in military matters, and they need to be taught.

      Knowing firsthand what is happening in the Armed Forces, I fully agree with what was said in the video. Separately, I would like to thank such people as "The Sword Bearer" and "Uma-Uma", it is nice that there are still competently reasoning people. Thank you very much. Well, in fact, what is being discussed. Let me remind you from history: at the end of the thirties, an interesting book came out, which, decades later, I managed to read it too. It was called - The First Impact (Nikolai Shpanov) - in that book there were also a lot of hats, just like here. And there was also a book - "Vanka company" (Shumilina) - there such a hat-taker met reality. In general, God forbid that neither we nor our future descendants NEVER saw wars, and God forbid that mankind does the right things! Such as, for example, the conquest of outer space. I have the honor.

        As you have noticed, humanity cannot do any necessary things and never did. In war, a person understands all his insignificance and his own insignificant deeds, which you call necessary.

      All this has already passed. The most important thing that gives the appeal is a potential "hot" mobilization reserve. In the event of a serious conflict, the personnel will be "knocked out" within a few weeks, and the main task of the regular army is to give time for mobilization measures in the country, to take on the first and most massive strikes, due to their professional skills to inflict maximum damage the aggressor, equalizing the potential and combat capabilities, enabling the mobilized, less prepared and well-coordinated reserve, to engage in battle under simpler and more stable conditions. This is for those who are in the "topic" at the level of a couch or garage expert, this axiom is known to any career lieutenant who graduated from a normal "pre-reform" military school. Everyone knows perfectly well how the loss of personnel in the Crimean War, in the 1st World War ended for the Russian Empire, this is not yet taking into account the experience of other countries. Destruction of Russian military science and schools, and the madness of our comprador government with the help of "Taburetkin", when the oldest schools with their scientific and teaching facilities were destroyed, when they began to teach at once in the Amerovian manner and everything, as a result, nothing concrete, is already yielding results. Yes, it has become more beautiful for pictures and advertising, new technology appears, which, against the background of the 90s without money, when the defense potential and the country itself were purposefully and systematically destroyed, looks "cool" and is presented as the greatest achievement. But, all this is laid down and developed by so many modern "analysts" hated, "scoop", designers, engineers and workers of the Soviet engineering school, including, by the way, cybernetics and digital control systems, i.e. those people whose life path, to the greatest regret and, as it were, not to trouble, ends, and about the new queens, kitties, pattons, Ilyushins and kamovs, and not hear. And the realities are such that in Syria in 2 years we have already lost aircraft, moreover, of serious types, more than the coalition for the entire war in the East, losses in l / s, and the officer corps and contract soldiers are higher than those of the "partners" for 4 years, and mostly from them, with an indistinct answer with smearing snot on their cheeks. After all these reforms and fanfare, even royal rockets fly into space, about new ones and not even heard, at airports in the country, Boeings and airbuses, our only at the exhibition and salons, by the way, they were also developed by the "hated scoop", etc. etc. As a result, everything looks not so rosy, but sad, with unpredictable consequences. All this can be continued indefinitely, over 30 years of treason and betrayal they have done a lot.

      A gentleman may be right, but he comes from the realities of the Cold War. Nobody needs a man-waged war now and the West is not ready for it.

      Look, is there at least one combat-ready army in Europe? No, everything is in ruin - the Germans don’t go tanks at all ... Even in several NATO countries, including mine, they are discussing the return of military service, because there is no word from the army at all - theoretically the Russians can go to La Manche in a week. In practice, everyone knows that if there is a war tomorrow, then the day after tomorrow there simply will not be Earth - there are enough missiles for everyone. The army will evaporate along with all the rest.
