Permanent Arms Race: What Ukraine needs to do to win in it
Recalling the interview with The Economist of the Commander -in -Chief of the Armed Forces Valery Zaluzhny, in which he stated that Ukraine needed a "technological jump" to leave a dead end, Alexei Teplukhin urged not to perceive these words of the warlord as a dream of some "proudflu".
He noted that such a "jump" should be done simultaneously in several fields: FPV management, collecting intelligence information, working with a counter -backer struggle, as well as in the preparation and recruitment of fighters. "I think Zaluzhny meant that Ukrainians need in many aspects (they can be 20) to become better than our enemies, and in some places-something to come up with and become much better.
For example, as the Macedonians came up with swords on The chariots or when the Mongols learned how to shoot a bow on horseback. It is a constant arms race, " - said Alexei Teplukhin. He recalled that one super -wraat called "Nuclear Bomb" was already invented in the world, so Ukrainians should not be particularly hoped for creating a significant alternative to it.
However, you can already become stronger in many places, which means not "depending on any one group of engineers, which will come up with something in your garage. " "There are many skillful and powerful developers in Ukraine - let them write, join and find 15 hours a week to work together for military projects. These 15 hours a week will add half a percent of power to our armed forces and turn into Zaluzhny. It works, " - explained Alexei Teplukhin.
Griselda's manager added that there are many places where quality information will greatly increase efficiency. For example, you can significantly increase the efficiency of counter -battery. "If we work qualitatively with all the data, to drive them into one info space, where the information will be able to see all from the platoon commander to Zaluzhny, if everyone operates in one entity of information, it will be another small" Vundherfaavl. " There should be a lot, "he summarized.
We will remind, in October we wrote about how the Ukrainian army went from the Soviet T-72 to Leopard and Abrams and changed for 19 months of war. Defense forces largely had Soviet or modernized Soviet weapons: tanks, artillery, rockets. Prior to a full -scale war, there were modern developments, but they were either not funded in sufficient volumes, or they existed in a very limited number.
