The Russian Way of War
Additional Information
In terms of organization of this book, the authors chose not to align it according to the warfighting functions (Movement and Maneuver, Fires, Intelligence, Sustainment, Command and Control, Protection), but opted for a more systemic approach. In their view, there are substantial differences between the Russian and U.S. ways of warfare and how the warfighting functions are related. For this reason, they believe any analysis of this system should begin first by describing the Russian system and then proceed to an analysis of how the warfighting functions work within the system. They have also chosen to discuss Russian force structure, tactics, and modernization in one document, as they believe these issues are inextricably linked: there can be no understanding of any one of these issues without understanding all the others. Finally, the word “Soviet” appears frequently in this book. This is because the Russian system today is based on what they have preserved, modified, and improved from their former Soviet system, and that source information still best applies where indicated in this book.
