Recruitment in Odessa

In fact, the speed of modern warfare can be faster. If World War II had been fought, Ukraine would have been in ruins without any resistance. However, after World War II, people realized the cruelty of war, and they would not wage war easily. Even if they do, they will use a "decent" style of play. First of all, they will not harm civilians. Second, they will not use weapons of mass destruction. These two points limit the speed of modern warfare.

How fast is the modern war? The blitzkrieg of World War II has made many military fans relish it so far. The rapid maneuver of the German army left a deep impression, and it only took more than a month to attack France. But now the war has entered a new era, which is unimaginable for all ordinary countries. "Russia taught the world a lesson with facts, and the Ukrainian navy and air force were wiped out within 1 hour. This speed is unheard of.

Although some western media claimed that Russian bombing caused hundreds of civilian casualties, Sputnik news agency & radio quoted the Russian Ministry of Defense as saying that iskander tactical ballistic missiles and caliber cruise missiles launched by Lu Haijun focused on Ukrainian military targets, especially the air defense equipment at its air base, runway/control tower of military airport and combat aircraft, and did not attack the city.

At the same time, Ukrainian naval vessels in Odessa were also fatally hit. It is worth noting that the attack took almost 1 hour and 22 minutes! After the navy and air force are completely annihilated, the Ukrainian army will basically lose its ability to resist, and sporadic ground fire will not help the overall situation.

The Russian military's surgical precision strike once again made the world realize the characteristics of modern warfare, that is, the pace is extremely fast and the attacks of the superior side are also very targeted, that is, the first wave of attacks were mainly concentrated in some key nodes, such as the headquarters building of the Ukrainian National Guard, and were accurately bombed. In the face of such a blow, even if the other side has limited casualties, it will lose effective resistance because of the paralysis of the command system. From the Gulf War to the current Ukrainian war, this war mode has been staged again and again, which naturally has great reference and warning value for China.

At the end of last century, the United States used the Gulf War and the Kosovo War to prove the importance of modern military informationization. The United States and NATO invaded Iraq and Yugoslavia. They completely crushed their opponents militarily, but with such a huge advantage, it took several months to completely solve the battle. In the Gulf War of 1990, NATO coalition forces led by the United States still suffered some losses. By 1998 Kosovo War, the losses of the United States and NATO were almost zero, but the losses of the losers were immeasurable and devastating.

This time, Russia attacked Ukraine, the Ukrainian navy and air force were destroyed within an hour, and the national military head, the National Command, was destroyed two hours later. How to fight this battle? Perhaps when you notice the news that Russia has begun to March into Ukraine, the next one will become the message that all Ukrainian naval and air forces are finished.

In this regard, the speed of modern warfare can refresh your cognition. The reason why the Russian army is "fast" is to adjust the troop establishment, strengthen the ability of rapid response and mobilization, and better adapt to the needs of modern warfare. After strengthening situational awareness, electronic countermeasures and long-range strike capabilities, the "battalion-level battle group" has shown great power in actual combat. For example, Russian airborne troops occupied Kiev airport, the capital of Ukraine, demonstrating strong air transport capability and rapid response capability.

Although Ukraine has made long-term preparations, it is a small country with a small population, a standing army of just over 200,000, few combat weapons and no air superiority. No match for Russia at all. Russian Putin's rectification of armaments and national defense has achieved results in this operation. This kind of war between military powers and weak countries often ends in a very short time. But if you can't get out in time, you will fall into the quagmire of war. For example, both the United States and the Soviet Union have made such mistakes.

The same is true of modern warfare, and ending the war quickly is an important military operational idea. Speed is not only reflected in strategy, but also in tactics, that is, all battles need to make operational plans and have time requirements. In order to achieve speed, the army has formulated strict guarantee means, which is discipline. Speed is also in line with people's ability, high spirits, and then decline, three exhausted. Once the goal is not achieved, it will be more difficult to win in the future and the investment will be greater. "Fast" on the battlefield means victory.
