The Russian army's frontline command post was "one pot" again, and it was obviously not simple behind the scenes.
The Ukrainian army launched a counterattack, and the Russian army's frontline command post was "one pot" again. It was obviously not simple behind the scenes. The Ukrainian army continued to attack the Russian army's logistics supply lines, ammunition depots, and command posts through the Seamas long-range rocket launchers, significantly reducing the Russian army's combat capabilities.
Recently, the Russian army Seamus successfully attacked a Russian army command post, satellite-guided rocket directly hit the target vertically. As a result, 12 officers including the commander of the 37th Russian Motorized Rifle Brigade were killed.
The Ukrainian army’s repeated attacks on command posts resulted in the death of a large number of middle and low-level officers of the Russian army. This is the biggest blow to Russia. Russia is self-sufficient in energy and food. At the same time, Russia still has thousands of tanks and tens of millions of artillery shells in reserve.
Russia's weakness is that the number of qualified middle and low-level officers in the Russian army is relatively small. The Russian Army has only 260,000 active troops, and after several rounds of military expansion, the Russian ground force has reached more than 600,000. It takes several years or even more than ten years for the Russian army to train a qualified captain-level officer.
Coupled with the loss of a large number of captain-level officers on the battlefield, the Russian army faces the problem of a lack of qualified officers, which also greatly restricts the Russian army's combat effectiveness. After all, we cannot expect a group of veteran officers who have retired for more than ten years to play any role in the modern battlefield.
Why can the Ukrainian army always discover and lock the location of the Russian command post?
Since the war began, the Ukrainian army has successfully attacked dozens of Russian army command posts at all levels. So, why can the Ukrainian army always discover and lock the location of the Russian command post?
The United States' " New York Times " reported that the United States used to cut off communication systems, electronic reconnaissance and human intelligence resources to provide Ukraine with a large amount of intelligence support and help the Ukrainian army successfully hunt down senior Russian commanders . The U.S. intelligence system even revealed the traces of General Gerasimov, the Russian Chief of Staff.
Although the Ukrainian army's attack on General Gerasimov was unsuccessful, the command post of the Russian 2nd Army was hit. It illustrates the authenticity of US intelligence.
The U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency does combat-related campaign intelligence and tactical intelligence work. battlefield intelligence work is the specialty of the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency. The U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency is only responsible for battlefield intelligence work, which is to provide intelligence directly related to combat for the U.S. military fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq.
According to Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov : US intelligence officers occupy at least one floor of the Ukrainian Security Service building. There are also hundreds of American military officers engaged in intelligence and other work in Ukraine.
Why is it so difficult for the Russian Air Force and missiles to successfully attack the Ukrainian command post?
On the Russian-Ukrainian battlefield, the Russian army also destroyed Ukrainian army command posts many times, but most of them were command posts below the battalion level. The Russian army rarely successfully attacks Ukrainian army command posts at the brigade level or even higher.
In the first Ukraine-Eastern War in 2014, the key to the Russian army's victory was the Russian army's electronic warfare system that completely suppressed the Ukrainian army . The Ukrainian military communication system and radar system were completely jammed, and the aircraft was shot down as soon as it took off. When the Ukrainian army arrived on the battlefield, their eyes darkened. They were beaten everywhere by Russian long-range artillery fire and rocket launchers .
In this Russia-Ukraine war, the United States and NATO electronic warfare forces fully supported the Ukrainian army, and also provided a large number of Starlink satellite communication systems to provide satellite navigation support for the Ukrainian army.
The United States and the West have more than 200 optical/multispectral imaging satellites, synthetic aperture radar SAR imaging satellites and electronic intelligence satellites. Russia only has 12 reconnaissance satellites.
The direct result of the disadvantage in the number of satellites is the difference in efficiency between the Russian and Ukrainian armies in obtaining key intelligence. In addition, the Ukrainian army implements decentralized management. A rough target is given, and the rest is decided by the brigade-level headquarters. The brigade-level command then gives a rough target to the lower-level units and leaves it to the battalion level, which in turn leaves it to the company-level units.
The Ukrainian army has a flat command, with less command frequency and fewer command levels. The probability that the Russian frontline reconnaissance force can detect the target will be very low.
The biggest lesson the Russia-Ukraine war has taught us is that we must pay attention to war. There is no easy war. Don’t believe propaganda easily, and pay attention to your opponents. War is not simply about who has more fighter planes, who has more tanks, and who has more artillery. That is a battle of beasts. War also involves economics, diplomacy, mobilization capabilities, industry, logistics support, reconnaissance capabilities, satellite systems, etc.
