Venemaa sõjaline võimekus ja armeereform(id)

Venelaste esimesed üksused jõudsid Zapad 2021 õppusel osalemiseks Valgevenesse.

Heading to Belarus for Zapad-2021 exercise in September, perhaps?.... First echelons began arriving yesterday.

Põhjamerelaevastiku 200. merejalaväe motolaskurbrigaadi tehnika on liikumas lõunasse. Tähelepanuks on see, et paraadil osalemiseks ei ole antud tehnika üles vuntsitud ja üle värvitud. Lisaks on samas ešelonis veel EW ja ÕT masinad. See tähendab, et kas Zapad 2021 või mõni teine õppus-Ukraina suunale liikumas.

200th moving stuff South (only direction from Petsamo) means either Navy Day show in StPb on 26th or deploying for a major exercise or op.

There are few things that suggest to me it isn’t for navy day. The vehicles haven’t been cleaned and repainted, three days is a little late to be transporting them down, and I don’t see why you’d waste effort bringing EW and air defence almost every unit has along with the tanks.

Venemaa ei luba UKR piiri äärsete OSCE vaatlusmissionide laiendamist

The United States regrets Russia’s continued blockage of efforts to expand the geographic scope of the @OSCE
Observer Mission at the Russian Checkpoints Gukovo and Donetsk, despite clear and continued support from other participating States to do so.

Venemaa liigutab osa Ukraina piiri ääres olevast Kesk SVR-i tehnikast rongidega kuhugi...

Interesting stuff from @JanesINTEL this morning. Over the past two weeks we’ve identified a significant reduction in equipment from the vehicle stores at Pogonovo training ground in Voronezh.

Using social media and satellite imagery we’ve tracked Central Military District vehicles leaving the garrison and boarding trains at Maslovka.

Dessantväed said soomukeid juurde. See aasta peaks veel 2 pataljoni saama uue tehnika.

The VDV's 98th Airborne Division received a new battalion set (~40 vehicles) of BMD-4M and BTR-MDM Rakushka armored vehicles. This the 11th battalion set of BMD-4M and BTR-MDM in service with the VDV.

Photos of that new battalion set of MD-4M and BTR-MDM Rakushka armored vehicles delivered to the 98th Airborne Division. Two more batches are slated to be delivered to the VDV this year.

Тревога оказалось учебной - речь идет о проверке боеготовности. Сейчас экипажи выдвигаются на многокилометровые марши. На маршрутах отработают в том числе отражение нападений противника и ориентирование в незнакомом районе.

Kontrollist ka video tekkinud

The Western Military District's 1st Guards Tank Army has begun a snap inspection with units in Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod, Smolensk, Yaroslavl, and Ivanovo, which is common before operational-strategic exercises like Zapad.

More than ten Tu-22M3 bombers flew between Shaykovka airbase in Kaluga and the Belaya airbase in Irkutsk. Possibly, a warm up for Zapad

Tänasest silma jäänud videod ja postitused

Soome lahes toimub Kotlini saare ja Suursaare piirkonnas dessandi ja mereväeõppus koos miinide veeskamisega. Samuti katsetatakse rannikukaitsesüsteeme Bal ja Bastion. IMHO-arvatavalt osalevad õppusel ka Iraani mereväe alused.

There is going to be an upcoming exercise in the Baltic Sea with Bal and Bastion Coastal Defense Complexes moved to Kotlin Island. In the exercise, Russian ships will lay a minefield near Gogland or Moshchny Island.

Lääne SVR-is suur demineerimisõppus-üle 8000 osaleja. PS-tegu pole veel Zapadiga, mis toimub septembris(10-16.09.2021).

More than 8k servicemen will take part in a Western Military District large engineering exercise as prep for Zapad 2021. It includes Uran-6 and Uran-14 UGVs, UR-83P and UR-77 mine clearing systems, Cobra-1600 robots, and UMZ-K.
The exercise will take place at training areas in Nizhny Novgorod, Vladimir, Kaliningrad, Leningrad, Voronezh and Moscow oblasts, as well as in Belarus. It will also involve a river crossing on the Oka with PTS-2, PMM-2M, and PP-2005.

Seda, et olümpia jooksul midagi toimub, on suure tõenäosusega oodata.

Läti militaarruumist jäi selline asi silma:
https://csis-website-prod.s3.amazonaws. ... 90HFAbn.d2
Analüüsib ja selgitab seoseid Venemaa õppuste ning sõjategevuse alustamise vahel.

Kokkuvõttes sedastab artikkel, et tõenäoliselt pole Zapad eelmäng vallutamise alustamiseks, vaid pigem kannab endas signaali välisriikidele ning taotleb pisikest propaganda võitu oma rahva hulgas. Zapadi fookuses on Venemaa ja Valgevene ühine tegevus NATO vastu ning nende sõjaline integreerumine. Õppus ise ei toimu muidugi Venemaa poolt deklareeritud ajal, vaid sisuliselt läbi terve aasta, väiksemate õppuste varju all. Laias laastus on aga tegu ühte ja sama eesmärki täitvate tegevustega.

EDIT:
Ahjaa, selline huvitav logistiline asjaolu oli ka välja toodud.

At a tactical level, moving a 120-vehicle motor rifle battalion with personnel and air defense assets by rail requires some 78 to 80 flat rail cars, which necessitates the utilization of two train echelons per battalion. Redeployment of the entire motor rifle brigade would require 16 to 18 military echelons.2 At the same time, it takes around three to five hours to load one train with equipment. This means that the process of redeployment of a brigade-level unit would take several days, depending on their access to platforms, prior warnings of movement, and troops’ proficiency with the loading process. The pace of movement also depends on air defense conditions imposed by opposing forces’ air operations. Deep rear or unimpeded transportation can cover a distance of 1,000 to 1,200 kilometers within 24 hours. Therefore, the effective functioning of railway troops is key to ensuring combat and mobilization capacities of the Armed Forces and ground forces in particular.

Rootsi FOI ülevaade Vene armee arendus- ja uurimisstruktuuridest

This investigation into how Russian military research is organised was conducted by Johan Engvall, at FOI, on behalf of the Swedish Ministry of Defence.

“The Russian military research infrastructure covers the entire chain, from research to development and production,” says Johan Engvall, a deputy research director in FOI’s Defence Analysis Division, in Kista.

Three types of organisations are engaged in research and development.

“Firstly, there are research institutes that primarily conduct applied research for military purposes. Then, there are the so-called design bureaus, which can be said to be the next link in the chain. They design and develop prototypes that can then go on to production. The third type, scientific production organisations, combines R&D activities with their own production capacity in an effort to streamline and reduce the gap between research and production.”

Overall, there are about 600 different R&D organisations. Since the first decade of this century, the Russian leadership has tried to make this large number more vertically integrated.
