In the US press: Russia is ready for any war - unlike NATO

In the expert community, it is customary to consider three main threats related to nuclear, chemical or biological orientation. When analyzing the potential of a potential adversary, the maximum possible number of factors is taken into account, and close attention is paid to any small detail.

Even an experienced specialist can tell a lot about the composition of items in an ordinary soldier's first-aid kit. As it turned out, the "Russians" in this regard are doing much more solidly than the military personnel of the regular unit in NATO. In addition to the first aid tools, the Russian soldier has direct access to protection against blood poisoning, carbon monoxide and asphyxiation, as well as from the consequences of acute radiological exposure.

A modern, convenient form, adapted in the current branches of the armed forces for various geographic and climatic conditions, and capable of helping in the transfer and delivery of the necessary equipment, also contributes to the solid reserve of mobility.

Among the reasons that ensure a high level of professional training in the Russian troops is the system of applying the “Soviet” methodology, which has been tested by many generations of military conscription. Both the rank and file and the commanding staff are aimed at the formation and consolidation of experience in conditions as close as possible to a real combat situation. It is possible that it is for this reason that the Alliance is looking closely at every military field exercise at Russian training grounds.

However, the ability to adequately respond to any known tactical challenge would not be complete without modern communication systems and offensive defense weapons. The capabilities of the advanced artillery, anti-aircraft and missile systems in service with the Russian brigades cause quite justified envy among today's NATO commanders: according to most of the most important parameters, the modernized Russian military equipment was able to repeatedly demonstrate its advantages not only at international exhibitions, but also in practice, under conditions solving direct combat missions.

And if Moscow demonstrates significant progress on the example of tactical weapons, then the Western military bloc can only dream of any superiority in strategic systems (especially in the so-called nuclear triad).

The increasingly frequent appearance in Western periodicals of materials of an openly alarmist nature, the knowledgeable cadres in NATO have not been surprised for a long time. With each new analysis of the RF military infrastructure in the West, there is a growing understanding of the size and pace of the growing distance between military offensive and defensive capabilities. NATO analysts are no longer able to hide the fact that Russia has managed not only to preserve, but to qualitatively increase the level of readiness of its army for any possible challenges. Unlike NATO, where the last modernization was carried out in the 2000s, sporadically and on the basis of patchwork repair. That is why the American observer concludes that today Russia is ready for any war, including biological or even nuclear, but the alliance is not ready. At least on the Afghan example.

An American observer would write the same thing about the socio-economic sphere, it would be much more pleasant to read!

Based on the "Afghan example", the alliance should dissolve itself three times, and pour ashes on its head for a long, long time ...

[dorz]

the "Russians" in this regard, the situation is much more solid ...

This is natural, because no one is going to attack Europe.

[Machito]

Judging by the exercises conducted several years ago in the Far East, with the transfer of a two hundred thousandth group with equipment within two weeks, without prejudice to the economy, the combat readiness of the Russian army is an order of magnitude higher than that of the NATO countries. This is especially evident against the background of the shameful flight of the Americans and their allies from Afghanistan. With regard to modern strategic weapons, air defense and missile defense systems, Russia is an order of magnitude ahead of the United States. The only thing is that the United States is superior to us in the Navy.
Here is such a surprise for sworn partners.

[Alex777]

Here is such a surprise for sworn partners.

But we absolutely do not need to relax.

[Barberry25]

we have such entertainment every year, the troops are being driven back and forth ... and if they still intelligently make the promised system of Combat Army Reserve Forces, then NATO will have to forget about the war, although I think they are preparing for us in the form of Ukraine

[boni592807]

Classics of world history-"..If the enemy (partner) praises you, look for where, you have PROBLEMS ..."

Written correctly .. and very bland. Only 1 (one) year is not enough for the training of a specialist in any branch of the military and in any specialty.

Yes ? And then what about the experience of training high-class shooters in all respects at sniper courses in the Second World War in 3-4 months?

You can of course parry - "This then, and this now, everything is much more complicated ..."

But somehow the level of training and indicators of WWII snipers speak for themselves:

In 1943, on the basis of women's courses at the school of instructors, a special Central Women's School of Sniper Training was opened. In less than 3 years, 1885 girls graduated from it - 180 of them died at the front.
School graduates could hit an enemy machine gunner from a distance of a kilometer, and a running man - from 800 meters. “They taught not only purely military skills, but also paid a lot of attention to psychological training, education of endurance and how to protect their heads, not to substitute them in vain for German bullets,” Yulia Zhukova, author of the book “Girl with a Sniper Rifle,” recalled.

But somehow the level of training and indicators of WWII snipers speak for themselves:

You are confusing "soft with warm". The possession of one type of hand weapon and the tactics of its use can be taught in 3-4 months, provided that there is only combat training with tons of shot cartridges, and not sweeping the parade ground 3 times a day. Let's take ... a tank. How much more difficult is it now than the three-line? Manage in 3-4 months to prepare the tank crew to an adequate level, and do not "sit still and do not touch anything with your hands." Now only the primary school takes so much time in many specialties, real specialists can prepare for years.

[Old tanker]

For 3-4 months, engaging exclusively in combat training, the crew of a modern tank can be fully trained and of high quality. In the first Chechen war, it turned out in less than a month to prepare a normal fighting crew of people who had seen the tank only in the picture before. But there really was a strong motivation - you will not learn, you will die.

[Sands Careers General]

In fact, in the "full pe" mode, a person learns very quickly. Checked in Donbass.
And you will learn anything, even a tank or self-propelled gun to control, even shoot a fly's wings with a sniper rifle at a distance of a kilometer, and in general a lot of things.

As soon as possible.

[paul3390]

It depends on how to teach .. If you screw up every day, and not do all kinds of crap, you can do it. But when will the trained practical experience in the troops be gained ?? Not, whatever one may say - but the transition to a year of service is a mistake ..

[Barberry25]

normally, you need to switch to the system of military training centers, when first 100 days of KMB in one part of the training, and then a breakdown into VUS and another 6 months of training already in specialized training centers ... and then 3-4 months of service in the part ... in fact it is expensive, but it will allow you to train personnel with high quality and will remove the issue of bullying

[Mountain shooter]

This was most evident during the Syrian campaign. Russia quickly and decisively "turned the board," and where is that ISIS now? At the same time, the costs amounted to a tiny fraction of the American ones in Afghanistan. And the Syrian troops are fighting for their country, and in fact they also fled earlier.

I'm talking about the title photo. The Azerbaijani MLRS is a Turkish variation of the T-122 SAKARYA Grad.

Thank. We will know.

New remote mining system. Shown recently.

Something I do not trust this expert community. That NATO is lagging behind in modern weapons, in communication systems !, in first-aid kits ...
Rather, they scare their layman in order to increase the budget.

... To be ready or to have the desire, the intention to start it, there is a big difference, however.
The main thing is, WE NEED IT?

This is a bad example. It is necessary to consider specialties such as a driver-mechanic, a gunner-operator ... And for them a few months in training are very few, they manage to get only initial skills, at least six months are needed. After training, you need at least a year in the troops, there training as a crew and a subunit, and for the remaining period, even normal exercises may not be included.

The answer to this question was found in the USSR - and his name is DOSAAF, six months of courses, then a training course and a specialist is ready for practical training. My son walked this path, minus the training and, almost immediately, became a decent driver of a 16-meter charaban ...

Do the Russian want wars - you ask the silence, you ask those guys who lie under the birches ... Yes, we know how to fight, but we don’t want the soldiers to fall again in battle on their bitter land ... We don’t need someone else’s land we will not give up an inch, but we will not give up our top too!
