A regiment is a paramilitary unit consisting of battalions and, as a rule, part of brigades or divisions. The peculiarity of the regiment is that it is an independent and full-fledged formation in organizational, economic and combat terms, essentially representing a stationed military unit V Peaceful time. The command of the regiment is exercised by an officer with the rank of colonel.
How many people are in a regiment in the Russian army?
Depending on the type and type of troops, as well as staffing, a regiment can have from 500 to 3000 people. A regiment as a combat structure usually includes units of various types of troops in addition to the main one (the most numerous), in order to maintain maximum independence and the ability to withstand various threats in the theater of operations. At the same time, regiments are divided not only by types of troops, but also by the nature of the tasks performed, and are also named according to the nature of the main type of weapons.
Some options for regimental formations:
How many people are in a Russian motorized rifle regiment?
A motorized rifle regiment consists of a headquarters, three motorized rifle battalions (36 infantry fighting vehicles + 5 armored personnel carriers or 40 armored personnel carriers), a tank battalion (36-40 tanks), an anti-aircraft missile artillery battalion, an artillery battalion, an anti-tank battery, a company electronic warfare, communications companies, RCBZ companies, companies material support, reconnaissance company, engineer company, repair company, medical company, commandant platoon and orchestra.
This regiment's composition pursues the goal of ensuring sufficient high level autonomy of conducting combat operations by forces of one formation. Carrying out missions of both offensive and defensive nature against enemy ground units. At the same time, the regiment has necessary measures on protection against chemical and biological weapons, can fight enemy armored vehicles thanks to reinforcement with a tank battalion and the presence of anti-tank weapons, and also has some defense capabilities against enemy air attacks, thanks to the presence anti-aircraft artillery, MANPADS, ZRAK and short-range air defense systems.
The main weapons used: BMP-2, BMP-3, BTR-70, BTR-80, BRDM-2, BRM-1K, T-72, T-80, T-90 tanks. MANPADS Strela, MANPADS Igla, ZSU Shilka, ZSU-23, ZRAK Tunguska, SAM Strela-10, Kraz, Kamaz, Ural, Gas trucks, UAZ vehicles, SAU 2S1 Gvozdika, SAU-2S12, SAU-2S23, ATGM Metis, Fagot , Competition, mounted grenade launchers AGS-17, SPG-9.
Main individual weapons: Ak-74, Ak-74M, AKSU-74, RPK-74, PM pistols, RPG-7 and RPG-18 grenade launchers, hand grenades RGD-5 and F-1, sniper rifles SVD.
There are also later models of equipment and individual weapons in smaller quantities. Extensive rearmament is planned. UAV units are being introduced.
How many people are in a parachute regiment?
The total number is 1400-1600 people. The parachute regiment consists of a regimental headquarters, three parachute battalions, a self-propelled artillery battalion, a reconnaissance company, an engineer company, a repair company, an airborne support company, a logistics company, a communications company, an anti-aircraft missile battery, an anti-tank battery, commandant platoon, RCBZ platoon, medical platoon and orchestra.
The main weapons used: BMD-1, BMD-2, BTR-D, self-propelled guns 2S9, GAZ trucks, UAZ vehicles, Strela-10 air defense systems, Igla MANPADS, Strela MANPADS, Metis ATGMs, Fagot, Konkurs, mounted grenade launchers AGS-17, SPG-9
Main individual weapons: AKS-74, AKSU-74 assault rifles, RPKS-74 machine guns, PM pistols, RPG-7D, RPG-16 grenade launchers, RGD-5, F-1 hand grenades, SVD-S sniper rifles.
Airborne landings occur mainly through military transport aircraft An-12, An-22, Il-76. Mi-8 and Mi-26 helicopters are used. The parachute regiments do not have tank battalions or heavy equipment in general, such as massive self-propelled guns or the Tunguska ZRAK. Firepower and security have to be sacrificed for the sake of the possibility of airborne landing, which imposes strict restrictions on weight and size characteristics. The armored vehicles of the Airborne Forces are as lightweight as possible and covered with anti-fragmentation and bulletproof armor, while at the same time they are very mobile. The same restrictions apply to the arsenal of individual weapons of paratroopers; they are as lightweight as possible, folding stocks are widely used, and shortened barrels are often used in relation to basic models of firearms.
The total number is 1400-1500 people. Combat structure a tank regiment is similar to a motorized rifle regiment, only there are 3 tank battalions (31 tanks each) and one reinforced motorized rifle battalion (42 infantry fighting vehicles).
Tank formations represent heavy strike power ground forces, are intended for both defensive tasks and offensive actions involving breaking through fortified enemy positions with deep penetration into the rear. The greatest threat to armored vehicles currently comes from bombing and attack aircraft enemy, as well as specialized anti-tank helicopters. Anti-aircraft units within a tank regiment are represented by short-range air defense systems and therefore cannot fully counteract air attack forces. Full-fledged cover of advancing tank units is provided by specialized air defense formations armed with medium- and long-range systems, as well as fighter aircraft.
Designed to operate behind enemy lines, destroy nuclear attack weapons, command posts, capture and hold important areas and objects, disrupt the control system and operation of the enemy rear, assist Ground forces in the development of the offensive and forcing water barriers. Equipped with air transportable self-propelled artillery, missile, anti-tank and anti-aircraft weapons, armored personnel carriers, combat vehicles, automatic small arms, communication and control means. The existing parachute landing equipment allows you to drop troops and cargo in any weather and terrain conditions, day and night with various heights. Organizationally, the airborne troops consist of (Fig. 1) airborne formations, airborne brigade, military units special troops.
Rice. 1. Structure Airborne troops
The Airborne Forces are armed with airborne self-propelled units ASU-85; self-propelled artillery pieces"Sprut-SD"; 122 mm howitzers D-30; combat vehicles landing BMD-1/2/3/4; armored personnel carriers BTR-D.
Part of the Armed Forces Russian Federation may be part of the united armed forces (for example, the CIS Allied Forces) or be under unified command in accordance with international treaties of the Russian Federation (for example, as part of peacekeeping forces UN or CIS collective peacekeeping forces in zones of local military conflicts).
Branch
The smallest military formation in - department. The squad is commanded by a junior sergeant or sergeant. Usually in motorized rifle squad 9-13 people. In departments of other branches of the military, the number of personnel in the department ranges from 3 to 15 people. Typically, a squad is part of a platoon, but can exist outside of a platoon.
Platoon
Several branches make up platoon. Usually there are from 2 to 4 sections in a platoon, but it is possible large quantity. The platoon is headed by a commander with the rank of officer - junior lieutenant, lieutenant or senior lieutenant. On average, the number of platoon personnel ranges from 9 to 45 people. Usually in all branches of the military the name is the same - platoon. Usually a platoon is part of a company, but can exist independently.
Company
Several platoons make up company In addition, a company may also include several independent squads not included in any of the platoons. For example, a motorized rifle company has three motorized rifle platoons, a machine gun squad, and an anti-tank squad. Usually a company consists of 2-4 platoons, sometimes more platoons. A company is the smallest formation that has tactical significance, i.e. a formation capable of independently performing small tactical tasks on the battlefield. Company commander captain. On average, the size of a company can be from 18 to 200 people. Motorized rifle companies are usually about 130-150 people, tank companies 30-35 people. Usually a company is part of a battalion, but it is not uncommon for companies to exist as independent formations. In artillery, a formation of this type is called a battery; in cavalry, a squadron.
Battalion consists of several companies (usually 2-4) and several platoons that are not part of any of the companies. The battalion is one of the main tactical formations. A battalion, like a company, platoon, or squad, is named after its branch of service (tank, motorized rifle, engineer, communications). But the battalion already includes formations of other types of weapons. For example, in a motorized rifle battalion, except motorized rifle company There is a mortar battery, a logistics platoon, and a communications platoon. Battalion commander Lieutenant Colonel. The battalion already has its own headquarters. Usually, on average, a battalion, depending on the type of troops, can number from 250 to 950 people. However, there are battalions of about 100 people. In artillery, this type of formation is called a division.
Regiment
Regiment- This is the main tactical formation and a completely autonomous formation in the economic sense. The regiment is commanded by a colonel. Although regiments are named according to the types of troops (tank, motorized rifle, communications, pontoon-bridge, etc.), in fact this is a formation consisting of units of many types of troops, and the name is given according to the predominant type of troops. For example, in motorized rifle regiment two three motorized rifle battalion, one tank battalion, one artillery battalion (read battalion), one anti-aircraft missile battalion, reconnaissance company, engineering company, communications company, anti-tank battery, chemical defense platoon, repair company, logistics company, orchestra, medical Center. The number of personnel in the regiment ranges from 900 to 2000 people.
Brigade
Just like the regiment, brigade is the main tactical formation. Actually, the brigade occupies an intermediate position between a regiment and a division. The structure of a brigade is most often the same as a regiment, but there are significantly more battalions and other units in a brigade. So in a motorized rifle brigade there are one and a half to two times more motorized rifle and tank battalions than in a regiment. A brigade can also consist of two regiments, plus battalions and auxiliary companies. On average, the brigade has from 2 to 8 thousand people. The brigade commander, as well as the regiment, is a colonel.
Division
Division- the main operational-tactical formation. Just like a regiment, it is named after the predominant branch of troops in it. However, the predominance of one or another type of troops is much less than in the regiment. A motorized rifle division and a tank division are identical in structure, with the only difference being that in a motorized rifle division there are two or three motorized rifle regiments and one tank, and in a tank division, on the contrary, there are two or three tank regiments and one motorized rifle. In addition to these main regiments, the division has one or two artillery regiments, one anti-aircraft missile regiment, a rocket battalion, a missile battalion, a helicopter squadron, an engineer battalion, a communications battalion, an automobile battalion, a reconnaissance battalion, an electronic warfare battalion, a logistics battalion, and a repair battalion. -reconstruction battalion, medical battalion, company chemical protection and several different auxiliary companies and platoons. Divisions can be tank, motorized rifle, artillery, airborne, missile and aviation. In other branches of the military, as a rule, the highest formation is a regiment or brigade. On average, there are 12-24 thousand people in a division. Division commander, Major General.
Frame
Just as a brigade is an intermediate formation between a regiment and a division, so frame is an intermediate formation between the division and the army. The corps is a combined arms formation, that is, it usually lacks the characteristic of one type of force, although there may also be tank or artillery corps, that is, corps with a complete predominance of tank or artillery divisions in them. The combined arms corps is usually referred to as the "army corps". There is no single structure of buildings. Each time a corps is formed based on a specific military or military-political situation, and can consist of two or three divisions and various quantities formations of other military branches. Usually a corps is created where it is not practical to create an army. It is impossible to talk about the structure and strength of the corps, because as many corps exist or existed, so many of their structures existed. Corps commander, Lieutenant General.
Army
Army is a large military formation operational purpose. The army includes divisions, regiments, battalions of all types of troops. Usually armies are no longer divided by types of troops, although they may exist tank armies, where tank divisions predominate. An army may also include one or more corps. It is impossible to talk about the structure and size of the army, because as many armies exist or existed, so many of their structures existed. The soldier at the head of the army is no longer called “commander”, but “commander of the army.” Usually the regular rank of army commander is colonel general. In peacetime, armies are rarely organized as military formations. Usually divisions, regiments, and battalions are directly included in the district.
Front
Front (district)- This is the highest military formation of the strategic type. There are no larger formations. The name "front" is used only in war time for formation, leading fighting. For such formations in peacetime, or located in the rear, the name “okrug” (military district) is used. The front includes several armies, corps, divisions, regiments, battalions of all types of troops. The composition and strength of the front may vary. Fronts are never subdivided by types of troops (i.e. there cannot be a tank front, an artillery front, etc.). At the head of the front (district) is the commander of the front (district) with the rank of army general.
The art of war in Russia, as throughout the world, is divided into three levels:
- Tactics(the art of combat). A squad, platoon, company, battalion, regiment solve tactical problems, i.e., fight.
- Operational art(the art of fighting, fighting). A division, corps, or army solve operational problems, that is, they wage a battle.
- Strategy(the art of waging war in general). The front decides both operational and strategic objectives, i.e. leads major battles, as a result of which the strategic situation changes and the outcome of the war can be decided.
Branch
In Soviet and Russian army a squad is the smallest military formation with a full-time commander. The squad is commanded by a junior sergeant or sergeant. Usually there are 9-13 people in a motorized rifle squad. In departments of other branches of the military, the number of personnel in the department ranges from 3 to 15 people. In some branches of the military the branch is called differently. In artillery - crew, in tank forces— crew.
Platoon
Several squads make up a platoon. Usually there are from 2 to 4 squads in a platoon, but more are possible. The platoon is headed by a commander with the rank of officer. In the Soviet and Russian armies this is ml. lieutenant, lieutenant or senior. lieutenant. On average, the number of platoon personnel ranges from 9 to 45 people. Usually in all branches of the military the name is the same - platoon. Usually a platoon is part of a company, but can exist independently.
Company
Several platoons make up a company. In addition, a company may also include several independent squads not included in any of the platoons. For example, a motorized rifle company has three motorized rifle platoons, a machine gun squad, and an anti-tank squad. Typically a company consists of 2-4 platoons, sometimes more platoons. A company is the smallest formation of tactical importance, that is, a formation capable of independently performing small tactical tasks on the battlefield. Company commander captain. On average, the size of a company can be from 18 to 200 people. Motorized rifle companies usually have about 130-150 people, tank companies 30-35 people. Usually a company is part of a battalion, but it is not uncommon for companies to exist as independent formations. In artillery, a formation of this type is called a battery; in cavalry, a squadron.
Battalion
Consists of several companies (usually 2-4) and several platoons that are not part of any of the companies. The battalion is one of the main tactical formations. A battalion, like a company, platoon, or squad, is named after its branch of service (tank, motorized rifle, engineer, communications). But the battalion already includes formations of other types of weapons. For example, in a motorized rifle battalion, in addition to motorized rifle companies, there is a mortar battery, a logistics platoon, and a communications platoon. Battalion commander Lieutenant Colonel. The battalion already has its own headquarters. Usually, on average, a battalion, depending on the type of troops, can number from 250 to 950 people. However, there are battalions of about 100 people. In artillery, this type of formation is called a division.
Regiment
In the Soviet and Russian armies, this is the main tactical formation and a completely autonomous formation in the economic sense. The regiment is commanded by a colonel. Although regiments are named according to the branches of the military, in fact this is a formation consisting of units of many branches of the military, and the name is given according to the predominant branch of the military. The number of personnel in the regiment ranges from 900 to 2000 people.
Brigade
Just like a regiment, it is the main tactical formation. Actually, the brigade occupies an intermediate position between a regiment and a division. A brigade can also consist of two regiments, plus battalions and auxiliary companies. On average, the brigade has from 2 to 8 thousand people. The brigade commander, as well as the regiment, is a colonel.
Division
The main operational-tactical formation. Just like a regiment, it is named after the predominant branch of troops in it. However, the predominance of one or another type of troops is much less than in the regiment. On average, there are 12-24 thousand people in a division. Division commander, Major General.
Frame
Just as a brigade is an intermediate formation between a regiment and a division, so a corps is an intermediate formation between a division and an army. The corps is already a combined arms formation, that is, it is usually deprived of the characteristic of one type of military force. It is impossible to talk about the structure and strength of the corps, because as many corps exist or existed, so many of their structures existed. Corps commander, Lieutenant General.

Each state has its own military organization - the armed forces. The number and tasks performed are determined by government system. The armed forces of each state have their own hierarchy.
Let's take a company as an example. Company includes several platoons. In addition, it may also include separate sections that are not related to platoons. In addition to three platoons, a motorized rifle company includes two more sections: machine gun and anti-tank. When conducting combat operations, the company is obliged to carry out assigned tactical tasks. Moreover, it is the smallest formation that independently performs such tasks. The company is led by a captain. As a rule, a company includes 3-4 platoons, but if necessary, it can be more.
How many people are in the company?
How many people are in the regiment?
A regiment is the main tactical formation. The regiment commander is usually a colonel. The regiment includes a whole range of military branches. Depending on which troops there are more in it, the regiment itself receives this name. An example is a tank regiment. Its composition: 2-3 tank battalions, 1 motorized rifle, 1 artillery. In addition to the first aid station and the anti-tank battery, it also has several companies - repair, logistics, reconnaissance, etc. The amount of how many people are in the regiment varies depending on need - from 900 to 2000.
How many people are in the division?
The division is the main tactical and operational formation. A division receives its name in the same way as a regiment, depending on which types of troops predominate in it, and this is not as significant as in a regiment. The division commander is a major general. Divisions are divided into airborne, motorized rifle, artillery, tank, aviation and missile divisions. The amount of how many people are in the division varies and ranges from 12 to 24 thousand.
Hierarchy and number of military formations.
Finally, the Battle Regulations of the Ground Forces are coming into force. You can more or less decide on the hierarchy, although I have only become familiar with two parts.
In general, I am very often asked questions like “how many people are in the division”, “how many people are in the brigade”. Well, it's impossible to answer this question. Because I can give an answer, say, about a tank regiment, but they were generally interested in cavalry, and even in the 40th year. The fact is that the very name “squad”, “platoon”, “company” does not depend on numerical strength, and firstly, from the type of troops, and, secondly, from the tactical tasks that are assigned to the formation of this type.
And so, the smallest formation:
“Squad” (crew for artillery, Crew for tankers).
The squad is commanded by a sergeant (junior sergeant), armed with an AK74
A motorized rifle squad consists of 9...13 people (in addition to the squad commander: a grenade launcher, a private with an RPG-7, PM; a grenade launcher assistant gunner, a private with an AK74; a machine gunner, a private with an RPK74; a senior gunner, a corporal with an AK74; 3...5 riflemen, privates with AK74; mechanic driver of an infantry fighting vehicle and gunner-operator/machine gunner of an infantry fighting vehicle/infantry fighting vehicle).
The squad is named after its branch of service (tank, motorized rifle, engineering, communications)
Motorized rifle squad:
Defense up to 100m,
Advance up to 50m
"Platoon"
Several squads make up a platoon (from 2 to 4).
The platoon is commanded by an officer - lieutenant, Art. lieutenant.
Number of people: 9...45 people.
The platoon is named after its branch of service (tank, motorized rifle, engineer, communications)
Motorized rifle platoon:
Defense 400 m along the front, 300 m in depth.
Advance up to 200...300 meters
"Company" (battery for artillery and squadron for cavalry)
Several platoons make up a company (from 2 to 4). In addition to platoons, a company may include squads that are not part of a platoon.
A company is a formation that can perform independent tasks on the battlefield.
The company commander is a captain.
Number of people from 18 to 200 (motorized rifle companies 130...150 people; tank companies 30...35 people)
The company is named after its branch of service (tank, motorized rifle, engineering, communications)
Motorized rifle company:
Defense 1…1.5 km along the front up to 1 km in depth
Advance: 0.5…1 km
Battalion. (Division for artillery.)
Several companies make up a battalion (from 2 to 4); the battalion also includes platoons that are not part of the companies.
The battalion is named after its branch of service (tank, motorized rifle, engineering, communications). But the battalion includes formations of other types of weapons (For example, in a motorized rifle battalion, in addition to motorized rifle companies, there is a mortar battery, a logistics platoon, and a communications platoon.)
The battalion commander is a lieutenant colonel.
The battalion has its own headquarters.
The number is from 250...950 people (theoretically, the size of the battalion is possible and less).
Motorized rifle battalion:
Defense 3…5 km along the front and 2…2.5 km in depth
Advance 1…2 km
Regiment.
The regiment is named after the branch of service, but includes units from many branches of the military. Consists of at least 3...4 battalions. (2...3 battalions of the military branch)
The regiment commander is a colonel.
(For example, in a motorized rifle regiment there are 2...3 motorized rifle battalions, one tank battalion, one artillery division (battalion), one anti-aircraft missile division, reconnaissance company, engineer company, communications company, anti-tank battery, chemical defense platoon, repair company, logistics company, orchestra, medical center)
The number of personnel in the regiment ranges from 900...2000 people.
Brigade.
An intermediate element (so to speak) from regiment to division.
The main difference from a regiment is the larger number of both battalions and other units. (Let's say there are two tank battalions in the MTB) A brigade can also consist of 2 regiments.
Brigade Commander - Colonel
Number of people: 2000...8000 people
Division.
Although it is named after the type of predominant troops, in fact the predominance can differ by only one regiment (say, in a motorized rifle division by two motorized rifle regiments, in a tank division, on the contrary, by two tank regiment one motorized rifle)
Division commander - Major General
Number of personnel from 12,000...24,000 people
Frame.
Intermediate military formation from division to army.
The corps is a combined arms formation.
The corps was usually created in cases where the formation of an army was impractical.
After completing the combat mission, the corps was disbanded.
Corps commander: Lieutenant General
Now there are 7 Corps in Russia (data on commanders may be out of date):
- 57th Army Corps (Ulan-Ude) (Major General Alexander Maslov)
- 68th Army Corps (Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk) (Lieutenant General Vladimir Varennikov)
- 1st Air Defense Corps (Balashikha, Moscow region) (Lieutenant General Nikolai Dubovikov)

- 7th operational squadron surface ships(Severomorsk, Murmansk region) (Vice Admiral Gennady Radzevsky)
Army.
In this case, the army is a military formation.
The army is a large military formation for operational purposes. The army includes divisions, regiments, battalions of all types of troops.
An army may also include one or more corps.
Staff rank com. army - colonel general.
Armies are usually not formed in peacetime and regiments, divisions and battalions are part of the District.

In addition to this there is:
Subdivision.
These are all military formations that are part of the unit. A squad, platoon, company, battalion - they are all united by one word "unit". The word comes from the concept of division, to divide. Those. part is divided into divisions.
Part.
The main unit of the Armed Forces. Most often, a unit is understood as a regiment or brigade.
Characteristic for the part:
- having your own office work,
- military economy,
- having a bank account,
- postal and telegraph addresses,
- having your own official seal,
- the commander’s right to give written orders,
- the presence of an open (for example, 44 educational tank division) and closed (military unit 08728) combined arms numbers.
The presence of a Battle Banner is not necessary for a unit.
In addition to the regiment and brigade, the units include division headquarters, corps headquarters, army headquarters, district headquarters, as well as other military organizations (voentorg, army hospital, garrison clinic, district food warehouse, district song and dance ensemble, garrison officers' house, garrison household goods services, central school junior specialists, military school, military institute, etc.)
In some cases, a unit may be a unit other than a regiment or brigade. Battalion, Company and even platoon. Such parts are called the word “separate” before the name
Compound.
United units: Division. Less often, Brigade.
An association.
Unification is a term that unites a corps, an army, an army group and a front (district).
