Units of constant combat readiness. Combat readiness of units and units

By combat readiness, military science understands the ability of units and subunits of various military branches to carry out comprehensive training in an extremely short time, engage in battle with the enemy in an organized manner, and, under any situational conditions, complete the assigned task.

Combat readiness- the quantitative and qualitative state of the troops, which determines the degree of their readiness in any situation to begin decisive fighting with all their available forces and means and successfully complete the combat mission.

High combat readiness is the main qualitative indicator of the state of troops and naval forces. It determines the degree of military vigilance of personnel, their readiness to carry out combat missions at any moment, even in the most unfavorable conditions, including with the use of missiles by the enemy nuclear weapons. Such readiness cannot be temporary, seasonal, or frozen at a certain level.

In combat readiness there is not and cannot be anything secondary or insignificant. Here everything has its very definite meaning, everything is vitally important. This is understandable. After all, we are talking about the holy of holies - the security of our great Motherland. And here there can be no place even for individual facts of complacency and carelessness of soldiers, the slightest dulling of vigilance and underestimation of property in real danger.

Combat readiness covers all new aspects of the life and activities of the Armed Forces; it focuses, as if in focus, on the enormous efforts and material costs of the people to equip the army with modern weapons and equipment, the consciousness, training and discipline of all military personnel, the art of command and much more. She is the crown of military skill in Peaceful time, predetermines victory in the war.

The level of combat readiness of formations and units is highly dependent on:

Combat training of troops in peacetime

Mobilization readiness of formations and units of reduced strength and personnel

Professional training of commanders and staffs

Good condition of equipment and weapons

Provision of material resources

Conditions of duty equipment on combat duty

The basis for the combat readiness of troops and naval forces is the high combat training of personnel, the ability to fight in a modern way, to achieve a decisive victory over a strong, well-armed and trained enemy. These qualities are formed and refined to mastery during exercises, classes, drills, training sessions in tactical, technical, tactical and special training.

Mastering the science of winning has never been simple or easy. Now, when the fire and strike power of the army and navy has invariably increased, when the nature of the battle has radically changed, achieving high field, air and sea training has become an even more difficult matter, requiring enormous efforts of the entire personnel of the unit, unit, ship, everyday, hard work every warrior. Therefore, the primary task in increasing combat readiness in modern military-political situation - to learn military affairs in a real way. This means studying the entrusted weapon with full dedication of spiritual and physical strength and military equipment, practice to high skill and automatism all the techniques of their application in various, including extreme conditions, fulfill all standards perfectly.

We are also talking about the need to persistently and tirelessly harden ourselves physically, to cultivate such qualities as courage, perseverance, endurance, discipline and diligence.

To truly master military skill, a soldier or sailor needs to effectively use every minute of training, exercises, actively and decisively act in various types of combat, day and night, in difficult geographical, climatic and meteorological conditions, to reduce the time to the limit when performing combat training tasks and standards.

Learn to anticipate the enemy in opening fire, hit him at maximum range when they use funds electronic warfare, both conventional and nuclear weapons. Make sure that every shot and missile launch is striking. Develop strong skills in practical problem solving combat support, including such as conducting anti-aircraft reconnaissance, protection against weapons of mass destruction. All these are clear indicators of combat readiness, capable of winning not by numbers, but by skill. We should not forget that success usually accompanies those who are persistent, who are not afraid of difficulties, do not look for easy ways in mastering military specialties, and consider it a matter of honor to earn all the highest signs of military valor.

An important role in achieving this goal is played by improving class qualifications, mastering related specialties, and achieving complete interchangeability at the combat post, in the crew, in the crew, and in the squad.

Highly qualified specialists use much more effectively Combat capabilities equipment weapons. They rarely cause breakdowns, fix the problem faster, and they have a broader not only technical, but also tactical outlook. Therefore, the struggle for high class is an element of the struggle for high combat readiness.

Achieving high military skill is not a wish, not a request, but an immutable requirement. It is dictated by the nature of military preparations probable enemy, opportunities modern weapons. Therefore, you need to counter the enemy with skill that has been practiced to the point of automatism, such personal training that not a single second is lost, and not a single unnecessary movement occurs in the battle.

The constant combat readiness of a soldier or sailor is unthinkable without strong moral and combat qualities. As military affairs develop, the tasks facing soldiers become more complex. Their volume increases, the nature of military labor changes qualitatively, moral, moral-psychological and physical exercise. And this requires an increase in the consciousness of personnel.

The level of combat readiness is directly dependent on the state of military discipline, statutory order, and efficiency.

The collective nature of weapons, the increased role of interaction entailed requirements for precision in the combat work of each specialist, a clear organization of combat training, the inviolability of training schedules, daily routines, and statutory procedures educate personnel in the spirit of commitment, helping to do military service not only a school of combat skill, but also a wonderful school of physical training, discipline and organization, a school of courage. The need to strengthen discipline, maintain strict order, and check every step with statutory requirements is the duty of every soldier and sailor. If a warrior is truly deeply imbued with an understanding of the enormous personal responsibility that is entrusted to him by the people for the security of the sacred borders of the Fatherland, then he will do everything necessary to ensure that combat readiness is constantly maintained at the proper level.

Encyclopedic sources note: “Combat readiness is a state that determines the degree of readiness of troops to carry out the tasks assigned to them... This is, ultimately, the crown of combat excellence in peacetime and the key to victory in war.” 1

Many works have been written about the concept of “combat readiness”, its essence and the need to maintain it in the troops. Combat readiness is of particular importance for the Russian Armed Forces. The untimely and disorganized bringing of them to combat readiness with the beginning of the Great Patriotic War resulted in dire consequences not only for the army, but also for the country as a whole, the death of millions of people.

During the Soviet period, a corresponding conclusion was drawn from this lesson. I would like to remind you what efforts military and non-military people throughout the country had to make in order to subsequently maintain the combat capability of the army and navy at the proper level for many decades and thereby preserve the peaceful labor of their citizens. This problem is still relevant today. Experience has been accumulated in creating a coherent combat readiness system for the domestic Armed Forces. This is an example of the creative, selfless work of the people and the army.

In the post-war period, military science gave an objective assessment of the causes of miscalculations in matters of ensuring the combat readiness of the Red Army on the eve of the war and in its initial period, and developed certain recommendations in order to avoid making mistakes in the future. Everything that was done during the Soviet period in the field of improving the organizational structure of formations and units, their technical equipment, control systems, combat training, combat, technical and logistical support, strengthening the moral and psychological state of personnel, discipline and organization, ultimately aimed at ensuring that the troops were not taken by surprise in the event of war.

It was concluded that the country's Armed Forces must be in constant high combat readiness to repel a surprise attack by an aggressor, and be able to carry out the tasks assigned to them at any time. After World War II, five main stages can be distinguished in the development of the theory and practice of combat readiness. The first stage covers eight and a half years - from 1945 to 1953. It is due to the transfer of the Armed Forces to a peaceful position, their reorganization and modernization. At this time, complete mechanization and motorization of the army was carried out, technical renewal of all branches of the military was carried out, jet aviation was created and the country's air defense forces were formed. During this period, requirements were formulated for maintaining the combat readiness of troops in peacetime.

It was taken into account that during the Korean War (1950–1953) new combat samples weapons - jet aircraft, effective incendiaries- napalm, some types of bacteriological and chemical weapons. The second stage took six years - from 1954 to 1960. It is characterized by the massive equipping of all types of Armed Forces with nuclear weapons, the creation and introduction of new weapons, the restructuring organizational structures and, accordingly, a revision of views on the nature of the operation and battle. The troops switched to a new system of gradually bringing formations to combat readiness, according to which three levels of combat readiness were provided: everyday, increased and full. The third stage includes the next ten years - from 1961 to 1970.

This was the decade of the creation of strategic nuclear forces, the massive introduction of missiles into all types of armed forces for various purposes, the emergence of military space assets, a sharp leap in the development of information and control systems. During this period, according to the state of combat readiness levels, the Armed Forces were divided into several categories. Wherein most of troops, forces and means, capable of immediately starting to carry out combat missions without additional deployment, was classified as troops of constant readiness.

These are the rocket troops strategic purpose, all foreign military groups, a significant part of the air defense, air force and navy forces. The second category included compounds with a short readiness period (1–2 days). Most of these formations were part of border military districts. The third category included reduced strength troops with mobilization readiness periods of up to 10–15 days. The fourth category included framed formations with a deployment period of 20 to 30 days from the start of the war. The fourth stage lasted from 1971 to 1980. and was also very rich in content. At this time, a sharp qualitative leap occurred in the state of the Armed Forces and their combat readiness. Their strategic potential increased several times.

Particular attention was paid to increasing the combat readiness of the Strategic Missile Forces. They have moved to a new level of management. The Signal A system was put into operation. This advanced control system missile forces combined with centralized system combat control of the Armed Forces (Center). The warning time for launches of small missiles was increased to 30–35 minutes, and for launches of RSD and radar missiles - to 5–8 minutes. Appeared in the combat readiness system new element“air mobility”, which affected the timing of the maneuver. This was facilitated vietnam war, where in mass quantity multi-purpose helicopters were used.

Taking into account the increased ground and air mobility of troops on the battlefield, it was necessary to make certain adjustments to the standards for bringing troops to combat readiness. It is also significant that the war in Vietnam, as well as the wars in the Middle East (1967, 1973, 1982) marked the beginning of the wars of a new technological era, where mass application guided precision weapons: in Vietnam these are air defense systems, guided bombs, homing Shrike aircraft missiles, in the Middle East - guided missiles ATGMs, missiles, and air-to-air missiles that meet the “fire-to-hit” concept. The fifth stage in the development of the troop combat readiness system took place from the 80s to the 90s. Its main content was the wars in Afghanistan (1979–1989), in the Persian Gulf zone (1991), and military campaigns in the North Caucasus (1994–1996; 1999–2000). The important thing is that from one local war to the other, new weapons systems began to be introduced more and more intensively. If in the Korean War 9 fundamentally new combat systems were put into operation, in Vietnam - 25, in the Middle East - 30, then in the Gulf War - 100.

The new quality was also evident in the fact that in the 90s the proportion of the use of high-precision weapons steadily increased. If in Operation Desert Storm (1991) the share guided bombs was 8 percent, then 7 years later, during Operation Desert Foxes against Iraq (1998), their share increased to 70 percent, and in Operation Terrifying Force (1999) against Yugoslavia - up to 90 percent. All American weapons were controlled, high-precision weapons. Taking into account changing conditions in the 70s, it was developed new system bringing troops to combat readiness. It provided for administrative order and the possibility of extreme deployment of forces and means in the event of a sudden crisis situation.

A genuine revolution in views on war, methods of waging it and, accordingly, the system for ensuring the combat readiness of the armed forces was caused by grandiose scientific breakthroughs in nuclear physics, optics, physics solid, radiophysics, thermal physics, space, electronic and laser technology and other scientific fields. The development of the theory and practice of combat readiness of the Armed Forces was greatly facilitated by a coherent system of operational-strategic exercises in theaters of operations. Thus, from 1971 to 1980, 9 such exercises were held in the West, 7 exercises in the East, 2 exercises in the South, 4 operational-strategic exercises of air defense forces, 3 operational-strategic exercises of the Air Force, 2 strategic exercises of the Navy. The entire range of problems of the combat readiness of the Armed Forces of that time was reflected in military-theoretical works that appeared from 1961 to 1990, including such as “The Initial Period of the War” (1964), “General Problems of Soviet Military Strategy” (1969) , " Strategic operation at the theater of military operations" (1966), "War and the art of war" (1972), "War and the army" (1977), " Modern warfare"(1978), " Military strategy"(1970), "Combined Arms Battle" (1965), Field Manual of the Armed Forces (1948), etc. An analysis of the theory and practice of combat readiness of troops in the Soviet period would be incomplete without highlighting the psychological aspect of the problem.

In textbooks, psychology is considered as a science about the patterns, mechanisms, conditions, factors and features of the development and functioning of the human psyche. A separate branch of it is military psychology, which studies the patterns of the psyche and behavior of people in military service, especially in a combat situation. 2

The study of combat is the study of laws human activity in battle. At one time, Clausewitz wrote: “Combat is the ultimate goal of an army, and man is the first weapon of battle; without accurate knowledge of man and his condition at the decisive moment of battle, no tactics are possible.” But the nature of human psychology has remained unchanged over the centuries. People are still guided in their behavior by passions, base inclinations, instincts, and in particular, the most powerful - the instinct of self-preservation, which can manifest itself in battle in different forms: in the form of fear, indifference, and sometimes panic.

To be able to control a person’s behavior in battle, to instill fearlessness in him, to inspire him to heroic deeds, to mobilize him to carry out a combat mission - this means ensuring the proper combat capability of the unit in any situation. Napoleon said: “The instinct of every person is to prevent himself from being killed by the defenseless.”

Philosophers argue that it was human knowledge that created Roman tactics and ensured the successes of Julius Caesar. 3 Combat tests a person’s spiritual and physical strength. The famous historian B. M. Teplov’s statement about fear in battle is noteworthy. “The question,” he writes, “is not whether a person in battle experiences the emotion of fear or does not experience any emotion, but whether he experiences the negative emotion of fear and the positive emotion of combat excitement. The latter is a necessary companion to military vocation and military talent.” 4

Maintaining proper combat readiness in battle is impossible without the combat cohesion of the unit, without the courageous, decisive actions of military personnel, which is the result of their targeted training and education. Perhaps the most difficult and most important thing in a commander’s activity is managing the behavior of people in battle. To do this, we need to find ways to the heart of every soldier and awaken in him the best fighting qualities. M.I. Dragomirov wrote that “only war causes that joint tension of all the spiritual sides of a person, especially his will, which shows the full extent of his power and which is not caused by any other type of activity.” 5

As a conclusion from what has been discussed, we note that without instilling such fighting qualities in military personnel as determination, courage, courage, combat activity, willingness to take reasonable risks, strength of character, initiative, collectivism, military camaraderie, mutual assistance, composure in the face of mortal danger, belief in the superiority of one’s weapons, and the ability to control oneself in stressful situations, it is impossible to ensure high combat readiness of the unit. Taking care of this is the most important duty of a commander.

With the strength of his intellect, the depth of foresight, the originality of the plan for battle, military cunning, decisiveness of action, achieving surprise, swiftness of maneuver, clarity and flexibility in coordinating combat efforts of forces and means, firmness and flexibility in leading units, a commander can double or triple the combat capabilities of a unit. The time factor plays a decisive role in ensuring combat readiness. The loss of time is irreplaceable. Strengthening the combat readiness and combat capability of the unit is the work of today and for the future. It is necessary to take into account not only what the potential enemy has today, but also what weapons he will have tomorrow.

Introduction

Our state’s radical change in its foreign policy course led to the elimination of the confrontation in the world between two military-political groupings approximately equal in military-strategic potential. This caused a certain weakening of international tension and a reduction in the risk of war, allowing us to talk about the end of the period “ cold war" But the world has not yet developed guarantees of the irreversibility of positive processes in easing international tension. The possibility of a new round of aggravation in the future of confrontation between states and their coalitions to achieve their economic, political, social and other interests has not yet been eliminated. It is unlikely that we will be able to remain on the sidelines in this confrontation. Under these conditions, while pursuing an active peace-loving policy, we are forced at the same time to maintain our defense at the level of modern requirements and strengthen the combat power of the Armed Forces. The fulfillment of this task is largely determined by high vigilance and constant combat readiness of formations, units, and subunits.
1. THE CONCEPT OF COMBAT READINESS. WHAT DOES CONSTANT COMBAT READINESS OF UNITS AND UNITS ACHIEVE?
By combat readiness, military science understands the ability of units and subunits of various military branches to carry out comprehensive training in an extremely short time, engage in battle with the enemy in an organized manner, and, under any situational conditions, complete the assigned task.
Combat readiness is the quantitative and qualitative state of troops, which determines the degree of their readiness in any situation to begin decisive combat operations with all the forces and means available to them and to successfully complete a combat mission.
high combat readiness is the main qualitative indicator of the state of troops and naval forces. It determines the degree of military vigilance of personnel, their readiness to carry out combat missions at any time, even in the most unfavorable conditions, including the use of nuclear missile weapons by the enemy. Such readiness cannot be temporary, seasonal, or frozen at a certain level.
In combat readiness there is not and cannot be anything secondary or insignificant. Here everything has its very definite meaning, everything is vitally important. This is understandable. After all, we are talking about the holy of holies - the security of our great Motherland. And here there can be no place even for individual facts of complacency and carelessness of soldiers, the slightest dulling of vigilance and underestimation of property in real danger.
Combat readiness covers all new aspects of the life and activities of the Armed Forces; it focuses, as if in focus, on the enormous efforts and material costs of the people to equip the army with modern weapons and equipment, the consciousness, training and discipline of all military personnel, the art of command and much more. It is the crown of military excellence in peacetime and predetermines victory in war.
The level of combat readiness of formations and units is highly dependent on:
- combat training of troops in peacetime
- mobilization readiness of formations and units of reduced strength and personnel
- professional training of commanders and staffs
- good condition of equipment and weapons
- provision of material resources
- state of duty equipment on combat duty
The basis for the combat readiness of troops and naval forces is the high combat training of personnel, the ability to fight in a modern way, to achieve a decisive victory over a strong, well-armed and trained enemy. These qualities are formed and refined to mastery during exercises, classes, drills, training sessions in tactical, technical, tactical and special training.
Mastering the science of winning has never been simple or easy. Now, when the fire and strike power of the army and navy has invariably increased, when the nature of the battle has radically changed, achieving high field, air and sea training has become an even more difficult matter, requiring enormous efforts of the entire personnel of the unit, unit, ship, everyday, hard work every warrior. Therefore, the primary task in increasing combat readiness in the modern military-political situation is to learn military affairs in a real way. This means, with full dedication of spiritual and physical strength, to study the entrusted weapons and military equipment, to practice all the techniques of their use in various, including extreme conditions, to a high level of skill and automatism, and to perfectly fulfill all standards.
We are also talking about the need to persistently and tirelessly harden ourselves physically, to cultivate such qualities as courage, perseverance, endurance, discipline and diligence.
To truly master military skill, a soldier or sailor needs to effectively use every minute of training and exercises, to act actively and decisively in various types of combat, day and night, in difficult geographical, climatic and meteorological conditions, to reduce the time to the limit when performing training. combat missions and standards.
Learn to preempt the enemy in opening fire, hit him at maximum range when he uses electronic warfare, both conventional and nuclear weapons. Make sure that every shot and missile launch is striking. Develop strong skills in practical solutions to combat support issues, including such as conducting anti-aircraft reconnaissance and protection against weapons of mass destruction. All these are clear indicators of combat readiness, capable of winning not by numbers, but by skill. We should not forget that success usually accompanies those who are persistent, who are not afraid of difficulties, do not look for easy ways in mastering military specialties, and consider it a matter of honor to earn all the highest signs of military valor.
An important role in achieving this goal is played by improving class qualifications, mastering related specialties, and achieving complete interchangeability at the combat post, in the crew, in the crew, and in the squad.
Highly qualified specialists use the combat capabilities of equipment weapons much more effectively. They rarely cause breakdowns, fix the problem faster, and they have a broader not only technical, but also tactical outlook. Therefore, the struggle for high class is an element of the struggle for high combat readiness.
Achieving high military skill is not a wish, not a request, but an immutable requirement. It is dictated by the nature of the potential enemy’s military preparations and the capabilities of modern weapons. Therefore, you need to counter the enemy with skill that has been practiced to the point of automatism, such personal training that not a single second is lost, and not a single unnecessary movement occurs in the battle.
The constant combat readiness of a soldier or sailor is unthinkable without strong moral and combat qualities. As military affairs develop, the tasks facing soldiers become more complex. Their volume increases, the nature of military labor changes qualitatively, moral, moral-psychological and physical stress increases. And this requires an increase in the consciousness of personnel.
The level of combat readiness is directly dependent on the state of military discipline, statutory order, and efficiency.
The collective nature of weapons, the increased role of interaction entailed requirements for precision in the combat work of each specialist, a clear organization of combat training, the inviolability of training schedules, daily routines, and statutory procedures educate personnel in the spirit of commitment, helping to make military service not only a school of combat excellence, but also a remarkable school of physical training, discipline and organization, a school of courage. The need to strengthen discipline, maintain strict order, and check every step with statutory requirements is the duty of every soldier and sailor. If a warrior is truly deeply imbued with an understanding of the enormous personal responsibility that is entrusted to him by the people for the security of the sacred borders of the Fatherland, then he will do everything necessary to ensure that combat readiness is constantly maintained at the proper level.
Conclusion: Despite some warming of relations between states in the world, many countries continue to build up their military potential. In the current situation, the Russian Armed Forces must maintain the high combat readiness necessary to defend the Fatherland.

2. DEGREE OF COMBAT READINESS AND THEIR CONTENT. RESPONSIBILITIES OF A MILITARY SERVICEMAN IN ALERT. EQUIPMENT

The Russian Armed Forces have the following levels of combat readiness:
1. Combat readiness “Constant”
2. Combat readiness “Increased”
3. Combat readiness “Military danger”
4. Combat readiness “Full”
Combat readiness is “constant” - the daily state of the troops, staffing levels, weapons, armored vehicles and transport, provision of all types of material resources and the ability to go into “increased”, “military danger” and “full” combat readiness within the time limit established for them.
Units and subdivisions are located in places of permanent deployment. Combat training is organized according to the combat training plan, classes are conducted according to the training schedule, strict implementation of the daily routine, maintaining high discipline, all this has a significant impact on the level of combat readiness in peacetime.
“Increased” combat readiness is a state of troops in which they can be put on “military danger” and “full” combat readiness in the shortest possible time without performing combat missions.
When combat readiness is “increased,” the following set of measures is performed:
- officers and warrant officers are transferred, if necessary, to a barracks position
- all types of fees and vacations are canceled
- all units return to their location
- current allowance equipment is removed from short-term storage
- Batteries are installed on TD equipment
- combat training equipment and weapons are loaded with ammunition
- outfit intensifies
- 24-hour duty of responsible staff officers is established
- the warning and alarm system is checked
- transfer to reserve ceases
- archives are being prepared for delivery
- weapons and ammunition are issued to officers and warrant officers
Combat readiness “military danger” is the state of troops in which they are ready to carry out combat missions. The timing of bringing units into “military danger” combat readiness depends on many factors (climate, time of year, etc.). Personnel receive weapons and gas masks. All equipment and weapons are removed to the reserve area.
Reduced personnel units and personnel, which are staffed according to the mobilization plan with officers, warrant officers, sergeants and active-duty soldiers, as well as reserve personnel, receive the organizational core, prepare for the withdrawal of equipment, weapons and materiel to the reserve area, and deploy reception points for enlisted personnel .
The organizational core includes personnel and reserve officers, drivers, driver mechanics, and military personnel of scarce specialties that are extremely necessary to ensure the organizational reception of enlisted personnel and equipment from the national economy.
“Full” combat readiness is the state of the highest degree of combat readiness of troops, at which they are able to begin performing combat missions.
Parts of the reduced staff and personnel begin to receive assigned personnel and equipment from agriculture. The units are staffed according to the mobilization plan with reserve personnel up to their full wartime staff strength. Responsibility for the high-quality staffing of the unit with conscripts rests with the commander and the district military commissar, who are obliged to constantly study and know the personnel assigned from the reserve. The unit commander coordinates with the military commissar the signals and procedure for sending commands to the personnel reception point.
PPLS consists of the following elements:
- department of appearance and reception of teams
- medical examination department
- distribution department
- department for issuing protective equipment
- department of sanitation and equipment.
Before arriving at the unit, those liable for military service are included in the official lists and receive the appropriate weapons.
The supply of missing automotive equipment to the unit is carried out directly from enterprises and organizations with full-time drivers.
For the organizational reception of equipment from agriculture, a equipment reception point is deployed near the unit, which consists of:
- department for collecting incoming equipment
- equipment reception department
- department of distribution and transfer of accepted machines.
After receiving personnel and equipment, combat coordination of the units is carried out. The main tasks of combat coordination of units are:
- increasing the combat readiness of units by coordinating units and preparing them for combat operations,
- improvement of military knowledge and field training by personnel, acquisition of solid practical skills in performing duties,
- instilling in commanders practical skills in skillful leadership of units.
Combat coordination is carried out in four periods.
The first period is the reception of personnel and the formation of units. Performing test firing exercises from fixed weapons and driving cars. Coordination of departments (settlements). Study of standard weapons and equipment.
Second period: coordination of platoons during tactical battery exercises.
Third period: coordination of batteries during tactical exercises of the division.
Fourth period: tactical live-fire exercises.
Thus, we see that “full” combat readiness is the state of the highest degree of combat readiness of troops.
The degree of combat readiness and the procedure for action of personnel include a large number of events and are strictly regulated by time. In view of this, every soldier must know his duties and perform them perfectly.
At the command of the duty officer “Company, rise, Alarm,” each soldier is obliged to quickly get up, get dressed, get a personal weapon: gas mask, OZK, duffel bag, steel helmet, warm clothes (in winter time) and act according to combat calculations. The duffel bag should contain:
- cape
- bowler
- flask, mug, spoon
- underwear (according to season)
- foot wraps
- accessories
- letter paper, envelopes, pencils
When alerted, the serviceman fills his duffel bag with toiletries. The assigned personnel are equipped at the PPLS in the equipment and sanitation department.

3B. PLAN FOR RAISING THE UNIT UPON ALERT. PROCEDURE FOR PERSONNEL ENTRY TO THE PARK, WAREHOUSE, OR COLLECTION POINT.
Troops on alert with the deployment of units and subunits, the removal of equipment and weapons from storage, the release of all equipment into the areas can only be raised by orders of the commander of the district troops and higher.
In order to maintain high combat readiness, the regiment commander has the right to alert one division (battalion), and the division (battalion) commander has the right to alert one battery (company).
The alert plan is developed by the unit's headquarters based on the regimental commander's decision to bring the regiment to combat readiness. In the division (battery), based on this plan, a “Combat Readiness Schedule” is developed, which reflects the activities and time of their implementation for all levels of combat readiness. In the battery (company), in addition, a combat crew is compiled for weapons and equipment, for personnel and their equipment. Successful actions of units are possible only if each serviceman firmly knows, skillfully and conscientiously fulfills the requirements and duties stipulated by the alert plan, the schedule for bringing to combat readiness, the combat crew knows his place, the procedure for bringing to various levels of combat readiness readiness. Commanders are required to clarify calculations and distribution of equipment and announce them daily at evening roll checks.
Combat crews indicate who does what in the event of an alarm. For example, how many people and who exactly from the company, what vehicle is allocated for loading ammunition of the battalion or regiment. Or which of the soldiers takes out live ammunition from the gun room, any other company property, who is responsible for blackout windows, etc. The “Alarm” signal is received by the unit via the “Shnur” warning system and duplicated by telephone. The "Shnur" warning system is a centralized wired warning system from the regimental duty officer to all units of the regiment. The control panel for the “Shnur” system is located in the regiment duty officer’s room, and in the units there is a sound and light warning board. This makes it possible to notify all departments simultaneously in the shortest possible time.
Having received the “Alarm” signal, the company duty officer raises all personnel (if the signal was received at night) or sends messengers to the places of company training to notify the unit. Notifies the company officers, sends commands allocated from the unit to the unit duty officer.
For the purpose of organizational entry of the unit into the designated area, the unit has a certain procedure for the exit of personnel. The first to receive weapons after rising are the messengers and leave at the command of the company (battery) duty officer to follow the officers, warrant officers and long-term servicemen living outside the unit. Then the driver mechanics, drivers and, under the command of a company (battery) technician or squad commander, receive weapons and proceed to the park.
In units of reduced strength, drivers receive a battery with a battery and prepare equipment intended for personnel, i.e. they remove it from conservation. After loading the materiel, the equipment is taken to the concentration area.
4B. SCOPE AND SEQUENCE OF WORK TO BRING WEAPONS TO COMBAT READINESS.

During the daily activities of parts abbr. weapons, ammunition and equipment are stored in parks (storages) warehouses. Optical instruments, radio stations are stored in warehouses, batteries for cars and devices are stored in heated rooms. To remove equipment from storage and make it ready for combat use, for each model of weapons and equipment there is routing, which fully discloses the list of work performed during removal from storage.

Removing machines from storage

Machines in short-term storage are removed according to the operation plan. Long-term storage vehicles may be removed by special written order. When cars are removed from storage, a note is made in the passport.
Removal from storage under limited time conditions is carried out in two stages.
The first stage of work includes work that allows you to start the engine and remove the car from park:
- removing the paper (tarpaulin) cover from the car and removing the seals;
- installation of batteries (disconnecting the low-current charging wires and connecting the ground wire to the battery terminals);
- filling fuel tanks and filling the power supply system with fuel;
- refilling the cooling system;
- preparing the engine for start-up;
- removing cardboard panels from the cabin windows;
- removing sealing covers from the exhaust pipe, air cleaner and generator;
- cranking the crankshaft of carburetor engines manually;
* starting the engine, checking its operation, turning on the centralized tire inflation system, bringing the tire pressure to normal, removing the cars from the stands, releasing the springs from the unloading pads.
The second stage of work is carried out in the concentration area, at stops or rest stops. These include:
- laying mats on the cabin floor;
- cleaning the instrument from preservative grease and putting it in place;
After removing the vehicles from storage, it is necessary to carry out a test run.
Thus, the combat readiness of a unit consists of the combat readiness of each serviceman, and the combat readiness of a unit is determined by the readiness of the units. The main condition for a regiment's combat readiness is the combat coordination of squads, crews, crews, platoons, companies (batteries), battalions (divisions).

The events of recent years prove the correctness of the ancient Greek proverb: “If you want peace, prepare for war.” By working out the worst-case scenarios, it is possible to test the combat readiness of troops, as well as send a signal to a potential enemy or unfriendly neighbor. The Russian Federation achieved a similar result after conducting a series of military exercises.

The concern of the United States of America and NATO is explained by the fact that combat readiness in Russia is aimed not at one of the worst scenarios, but at several: for the sake of peace in its country, the Russian army is ready for war in any direction.

Definition

Combat readiness is a state of the Armed Forces in which various army units and units are able to prepare and engage in battle with the enemy in an organized manner and in a short time. The task set by the military leadership is carried out by any means, even with the help of nuclear weapons. Troops in combat readiness (BG) having received the necessary weapons, military equipment and other materiel, are ready at any moment to repel an enemy attack and, following orders, use weapons of mass destruction.

Plan for bringing to BG

In order for the army to be brought into combat readiness, the headquarters is developing a plan. This work is supervised by the commander of the military unit, and the result is approved by the senior commander.

The BG plan provides for:

• the procedure and methods for notifying military personnel and officers for assembly;
• their location is indicated;
• actions of the duty officer and in the military unit;
• actions of the commandant service in areas where personnel and military equipment are concentrated.

Start

Combat readiness for each level begins with a signal received by the duty officer of the military unit. Next, using the “Cord” system installed in each military unit, telephone or siren, the unit duty officer is notified by the unit duty officer and the commander. Having received the signal, the information is clarified, and then using a voice command: “Company, rise! Alarm, alarm, alarm!” - the units on duty notify all personnel about the start of the operation. After this, the command is given: “Muster has been announced” - and the military personnel are sent to the units.

Those who live outside the military unit receive the command to gather from the messengers. It is the responsibility of the driver mechanics to arrive at the park. There, the attendants hand out the keys to the car boxes. Drivers are required to prepare all necessary equipment before officers arrive.

Loading of army property is carried out by personnel according to the combat crew. Having prepared, under the supervision of seniors, everything for sending to the place of deployment necessary equipment, the personnel are waiting for the arrival of officers and warrant officers who are responsible for transporting the property of the military unit. Those who did not enter are sent to the collection point.

Degrees of combat readiness

Depending on the situation, BG can be:

• Constant.
• Increased.
• In a state of military danger.
• Full.

Each degree has its own events in which military personnel take part. Their clear awareness of their responsibilities and ability to quickly complete tasks testifies to the ability of units and groups of troops to act in an organized manner in situations critical to the country.

What is needed to conduct a biopsy?

Combat readiness is affected by:

• combat and field training of units, officers and staffs;
• organizing and maintaining the army in accordance with the requirements of the combat regulations;
• equipping army units and units with the necessary weapons and equipment.

The ideological education of personnel and their awareness of their responsibilities has great importance to achieve the required

Standard BG

Constant combat readiness is a state of the Armed Forces in which units and units are concentrated at a permanent location and are engaged in daily activities: a strict daily routine is followed, and high discipline is maintained. Some are engaged in routine maintenance of equipment and training. The classes conducted are coordinated with the schedule. The troops are ready to move to the highest level of combat at any time. For this purpose, designated units and units are on duty around the clock. All activities occur as planned. For storage of material and technical means (ammunition, fuels and lubricants) special warehouses are provided. Vehicles have been prepared that, at any moment, if necessary, can transport them to the area where the unit or unit is deployed. Combat readiness of this level (standard) provides for the creation of special reception centers for the loading and removal of military personnel and officers to places of mobilization.

Increased BG

Increased combat readiness is a state of the Armed Forces in which units and subunits are ready to act in a short period of time to repel military danger and carry out combat missions.

In case of increased combat readiness, the following measures are provided:

• cancellation of vacations and transfers to the reserve;
• strengthening the outfit;
• implementation of round-the-clock duty;
• return to the location of some units;
• checking all available weapons and equipment;
• supplying combat training equipment with ammunition;
• checking alarms and others;
• preparing archives for delivery;
• officers and warrant officers are equipped with weapons and ammunition;
• officers are transferred to barracks position.

After checking the military base of a given level, the readiness of the unit for possible changes in the regime is determined, the amount of material reserves, weapons and transport required for this level for the removal of military personnel and officers to places of mobilization is checked. Increased combat readiness is used primarily in educational purposes, since operating in this mode is expensive for the country.

Third degree of readiness

In a regime of military danger, combat readiness is a state of the Armed Forces in which all equipment is withdrawn to a reserve area, and army units and subunits raised on alert quickly set out to carry out tasks. Functions of the army in the third degree of combat readiness ( official name which - “military danger”) are the same. The war begins with the announcement of an alarm.

This level of combat readiness is characterized by:

• All branches of troops are withdrawn to the concentration point. Each unit or formation is located in two prepared areas at a distance of 30 km from the permanent deployment point. One of the areas is considered secret and is not equipped with utilities.
• According to the laws of war, personnel are supplemented with cartridges, grenades, gas masks, anti-chemical packages and individual first-aid kits. Units of any military branches receive everything they need at concentration points. In the army Russian Federation tank forces After arriving at the place designated by the command, they are refueled and equipped with ammunition. Other types of units also receive everything they need.
• The dismissal of persons whose term of service has expired is cancelled.
• Work on accepting new conscripts is stopped.

Compared to the two previous levels of combat readiness, this level is characterized by high financial costs.

Full combat readiness

In the fourth degree of war, army units and formations of the Armed Forces are in a state of highest combat readiness. This regime provides for measures aimed at transitioning from a peaceful situation to a military one. To accomplish the task set by the military leadership, personnel and officers are completely mobilized.

At full combat readiness the following are provided:

• 24/7 duty.
• Carrying out combat coordination. This event means that all units and formations in which personnel reductions were made are staffed again.
• Using encrypted coded or other classified communications, orders are given to military personnel and officers. Commands may also be given in writing and delivered by hand. If orders are given orally, they must be subsequently confirmed in writing.

Bringing to combat readiness depends on the situation. BG can be carried out sequentially or bypassing intermediate stages. Full readiness can be declared in the event of a direct invasion. After the troops are brought to the highest level of combat readiness, a report is made from the commanders of units and formations to the highest authorities.

When else is the fourth level of readiness carried out?

Full combat readiness in the absence of a direct invasion is carried out with the purpose of checking a particular district. Also, this declared degree of BG may indicate the beginning of hostilities. Checking full combat readiness is carried out in a very in rare cases. This is due to the fact that the state spends a lot of money to finance this level. The declaration of full combat readiness throughout the country can be carried out for the purpose of global check all divisions. In each country, according to security rules, only a few units can be constantly in the fourth level BG mode: border guard, anti-missile, anti-aircraft and radio technical units. This is due to the fact that in the current conditions a strike can be delivered at any minute. These troops are constantly concentrated in the required positions. Like regular army units, these units also engage in combat training, but in case of danger they are the first to act. Especially in order to respond to aggression in a timely manner, the budgets of many countries provide funding for individual army units. The state is unable to support the rest in this regime.

Conclusion

The effectiveness of checking the readiness of the Armed Forces to repel an attack is possible if secrecy is maintained. Traditionally, combat readiness in Russia is under close attention Western countries. According to European and American analysts, attacks carried out by the Russian Federation always end with the appearance of Russian special forces.

The collapse of the Warsaw bloc and the advance of NATO forces to the east are considered by Russia as a potential threat, and therefore are the reason for the subsequent adequate military activity of the Russian Federation.

Degrees of combat readiness

the types of condition of troops and bodies of the RF PS established by the legislation of the Russian Federation and departmental regulations, from which they can prepare for the implementation of the safety protection system within the required time frame. They are introduced by order of senior commanders (chiefs). S.b.g. (“Constant”, “Increased”, “ ” and “Full”) are established in order to maintain the ability of troops and bodies in any situation to successfully carry out the tasks of protecting and guarding the State Guard of the Russian Federation.
