It depends. There are different conceptual "aim points" at different echelons. Some focus on a "Middle Battle" area, while other echelons go deep.

Got a source on that fight? I don't recall the Ukrainians achieving anything like that in the summer of 2022 - their back were against the wall then as Russia transitioned forces from the Kyiv axis to Donbas. Their fall counteroffensive featured a breakout, but I wouldn't call it "into the...

Sure.

You are describing the Russian BTG concept, which fell apart one month into Ukraine.

Battle Group commanders don't want to (and shouldn't) be saddled with all of that stuff when trying to fight the close fight in MCO.

How are they going to get through the close area, considering the mass persistent surveillance and strike that is available today? Looking at doctrine helps. US defines doctrine defines deep operations as "tactical actions against enemy forces, typically out of direct contact with friendly...

Reality has a funny way of intruding on "the War is essentially over" and "we destroyed their military" and "we almost have a deal."

The Deep and Close areas are not some informal concept to think about. It's doctrine. Someone please explain to me how a "Medium Cavalry" organization fights and sustains itself on 50 ton armoured vehicles in the Division's deep area, which is conceivably 30-50 km forward of the FEBA?

We should probably figure out how 1st Canadian Division is going to fight before making up units and "ways of fighting" for it.

And this. https://shape.nato.int/news-releases/nato-acquires-aienabled-warfighting-system- MSS is the system for NORAD and NATO operational C2 support. The estimate is fairly easy on this one.

But they are so close to a big, beautiful deal....for the fifth time.

Potentially alongside Impeachment. My money is on them coming for Hegseth first.

Ukraine's version of the Armoured Combat Support Vehicle - an updated M113. https://www.twz.com/land/ukraines-m113-inspired-armored-personnel-carrier-in-testing

The American colonel, Harry Summers, told his Vietnamese counterpart: "You know, you never defeated us on the battlefield." The Vietnamese colonel, Nguyễn Đôn Tự, thought about it and replied: "That may be so. But it is also irrelevant."

One of the six GOs is a reservist, but these are full time positions and not designated for any specific ARes function.

I don't no how it doesn't answer the question. The Comd and DComds of the divisions are full-time in their respective HQs, posted to the area. There will not be "ARes DComds" who do remote Class A days. Not sure of the new name. It (and some of its tasks) will remain as a deployable C2 element...

It follows allied practice for operational divisions (a game to which we are fairly new to). The UK does this, and US Divisions now have 3x DCGs. I'm not justifying the concept, only pointing out that we are not just making stuff up.
