The commander of the battalion of the RF Armed Forces spoke about the tactics of advancing tankers and paratroopers in the Svatovsky direction

In the Svatovo direction in the Lugansk People's Republic (LPR), units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are moving forward very successfully. They destroy strongholds of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The success of the offensive is determined by the effective interaction of the units of the Airborne Forces and tank units of the Ground Forces of the Russian Federation. He stated this in an interview with RIA News commander of the Russian battalion with the call sign "Polyak".

According to the officer, the Airborne Forces work with the support of tanks. Within a week they had advanced at least a kilometer, if not more. Only on the last day, two platoon strongholds of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were destroyed. Of course, in the areas of other units - their successes: there, too, the resistance of enemy strongholds is suppressed.

Losses of Ukrainian formations in these strongholds are estimated at about 20 people. The tanks are the first to act, then the paratroopers enter the positions and clean them up.

Worked fine, in normal mode. We went to the position, shot the numbers, worked out with a machine gun - everything is clear

- told RIA News mobilized tanker with the call sign "Ferret".

According to the serviceman, the tanks are being worked out to strengthen the Ukrainian detachment. Then the paratroopers begin to occupy the lines, clear the way and move on. As a result, it is possible to advance quickly enough, suppressing the resistance of the enemy.

It should be noted that the Svatov direction plays an important role in terms of liberating the territory of the Lugansk People's Republic from Ukrainian formations that have penetrated it. Also, Russian troops are successfully operating on the Donetsk front.

Here is another fact confirming that since paratroopers and marines are used as assault units, it means that they must be equipped with armored vehicles even more protected than a standard motorized rifle unit. Abandon the BMD concept and saturate the "Kurganets" with platforms as a priority.
Well, in the end, make a management decision on the creation of special "assault units". with a changed State, structure, weapons nomenclature, to carry out assaults in urban conditions and in conditions of Ukrainian regions in modern warfare during an army operation. More reconnaissance devices (teplyaks, nightlights, UAVs), more snipers in the state, support not by the usual cannon artillery division, but by a high-precision sash. More mortars of different calibers. Tanks in close cooperation with assault groups, etc. approximately already even the configuration of a successful assault unit is clear ...

Try a little more and comments will be posted before the main article, right?

I only read about tactics in the title ... "We worked it out - everything is clear" - this is not a tactic.

[know-it-two]

They also forgot to write, be sure to BMPT with 30-57mm remote detonation ammunition.

This fact shows that it is necessary to teach well and study well in higher command schools. This also indicates that in the course of combat training, at the stages of coordination, it is necessary to work out the issues of organizing interaction and combat control to the point of automaticity. There is no need to abandon any BMD concepts, you need to work on improving them. When science came up with ATGMs, no one refused tanks, everyone started thinking about creating armor protection !!! and not only armored ....

Well, in the end, make a management decision on the creation of special "assault units".

What "assault units" ?????? We are talking about the assault on the STRONG POINT in the "field / forest" !!! Where there, at least a word about the city. It has become simply fashionable for us to use the word "assault", and in tactics there has always been CAPTURE (capture of a building, line, strong point, defense area .....). it is now, from the slang of military correspondents, that everything and everyone is storming, but in general they have always captured. In the text of the combat order, when setting up a combat mission, there are no words "to storm the building" anywhere, it says "attack, capture, destroy ...". In order to competently and skillfully capture buildings, you need to study the topic in the section "Warring in special conditions", part "Combat in the city", there is also "Combat in the forest", Combat in the mountains", "Combat in the desert", " Fight at night "... you need to engage in high-quality combat training with all units. learn to fight in all conditions, work out questions at training grounds to nausea. And create one city battalion in a regiment / brigade. one night, one forest ..... how will we fight? How can a "city" (trained only in this) be able to fight in the forest? The battalion commander will say which one, we did not prepare for this)))))), or he will go and put a battalion there)))))). , as arctic.And everyone should know and be able to fight in the city and capture strongholds !!!

Well, as always, another landing argument to prove its exclusivity

I will answer as a former artilleryman of the famous 42 MSD how to fly and swim if you are put on very protected equipment.
We motorized riflemen do not need floating scows of the BMP -1,2 and 3, we dream of equipment at the armor level, at least a bradley would be better at the T-62M level, so that we can put a normal remote sensing from the magnificent seven to protect ourselves. Our wet dreams are not about Kurganets and not about Boomerang, we would at least have an analogue of Azkharit. we no longer dream about barberry.

In a week they advanced at least a kilometer

Is this some kind of joke? I understand that this is a war and everything is very difficult, but a kilometer in a week seems strange.

What a joke ... These are frontal attacks on enemy fortifications.

[voyaka uh]

There is a video from drones of how tankers operate.
A pair of tanks advance several hundred meters forward,
they shoot each several times with high-explosive weapons at the firing point of the Ukrainians.
They are spotted by Ukrainian drones, almost constantly hanging in the air.
And the tanks go back at full speed, until anti-tank groups of the Armed Forces of Ukraine appeared in pickups or “kamikazes” arrived.

There is such an anecdote: in a German school, in a geography lesson, a teacher asks students a question: Children, where is the longest street in the world? Everyone is silent, Hans raises his hand, the teacher raises him, he answers: In Russia, in Stalingrad. Teacher: Where did you get it? Hans: My grandfather told me, there was a street there, they couldn’t pass it for two months during the war ....

Therefore, we must understand that the lines of defense are not located every kilometer. For some time, they disassemble a certain section, after which they move to the next one, which can be located ten or more kilometers from the previous one.

You probably think that the strongholds of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are spread in an even layer throughout the Ukrainians. In your fictional world, the march to the border with Poland can really stretch for decades at such a pace.

Is the effective firing range of a "pickup group" higher than that of a tank?
However, dangerous

[Postcode]

The effective firing range of a group on a pickup truck is equal to the effective firing range of an ATGM mounted on a pickup truck))))

Because of the bushes, trees. You just won't see it. And the tank here it is in the middle of the field as if on a silver platter. And the range is from 5 to 10 km ...
