the goal of the "division-to-brigade" reform is to integrate the original independent infantry regiments into more flexible brigade-level combat units. this strategic adjustment attempts to improve the overall combat capability of the russian army, especially in the face of rapid response and flexible deployment in complex battlefield environments. however, the reality shows a different picture. from observations on the battlefield, the russian army's "division-to-brigade" reform seems to have encountered huge obstacles.
first, on the battlefield, the russian army's infantry's tactical execution capabilities are obviously insufficient. the armored forces are suppressed by various weapon systems, making it difficult for the russian army to form an effective offensive capability. secondly, the improvement of the level of informatization and synthesis has also made the russian army face greater challenges. there are significant problems with the russian army's logistics support capabilities and sustained combat capabilities. the common point of these problems is that the russian army lacks sufficient flexibility and response capabilities in conflicts.
ukraine, the stage for this war, has exposed the shortcomings of the russian army. especially when the armored forces were restrained by various weapon systems and could not lift their heads, the logistical support and sustained combat capabilities of the brigade-level combat units were obviously insufficient. it was like a confident boxer who suddenly found himself standing on the heavyweight ring and was beaten to a pulp.
the success or failure of the "division to brigade" reform depends on how the russian army uses new combat power in war and copes with the complexity of the battlefield environment. the russian army needs to re-examine its tactics and combat strategies and seek new solutions to overcome these challenges. as technology continues to develop, the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence technology will bring new possibilities to the battlefield.
the battlefield of the future will become more complex, and the russian army's "division to brigade" reform will be one of the key factors in the war. in the cruelty of war, only by constantly learning and adapting can we survive. in the future, the russian army needs to rethink its strategic direction and find ways to cope with challenges.
