In the arena of war, firepower and maneuverability are undoubtedly the two main factors that determine victory. In particular, the importance of superiority in firepower is becoming more and more prominent in modern warfare, which is strongly supported by the Russian General Staff, who believe that artillery is the "god" of war. Recently, it was reported that the Russian armed forces will put 5 heavy artillery brigades on the battlefield in Ukraine, equipped with powerful artillery, with the intention of completely melting the Ukrainian defense line.
According to the Greek Pentapostagma **December 11**, these heavy artillery brigades will be integrated into army corps and formations, and will be equipped with powerful artillery such as 2S4 "Tulip" and 2S7 "Pion". The power of these guns is huge, among which the Tulip mortar has a caliber of 240 mm and can fire high-explosive fragmentation shells weighing up to 130 kg and rocket-propelled high-explosive shells weighing 228 kg, and one shot can destroy 7 floors. The Type 2S7 "Pion" self-propelled howitzer is a large-caliber self-propelled howitzer developed during the Soviet era, which has the ability to launch tactical nuclear shells to attack important targets in the rear of the battle line.
These heavy artillery brigades will be assigned specific operational and tactical roles by the Northern Military District to ensure maximum effectiveness on the battlefield in Ukraine. It is reported that the addition of these heavy artillery brigades will greatly enhance the firepower advantage of the Russian army on the battlefield in Ukraine, and is expected to change the current situation on the battlefield.
The Russian General Staff's emphasis on firepower superiority is not groundless. In modern warfare, superiority in firepower can not only inflict tremendous damage and damage on the enemy, but also have a tremendous deterrent effect on the enemy's psychology. On the battlefield in Ukraine, the Russian army has repeatedly demonstrated its strong firepower superiority. However, the Ukrainian side is also constantly strengthening its fortifications and equipment, making the situation on the battlefield more and more stalemate.
The Russian army's investment of 5 heavy artillery brigades this time is undoubtedly a major challenge to the Ukrainian side. The addition of these heavy artillery brigades will give the Russian army a greater advantage in firepower, which is expected to cause great damage to the Ukrainian defense line. However, the Ukrainian side will not sit idly by and will definitely take corresponding measures to respond to this move of the Russian army.
It is worth noting that the addition of these heavy artillery brigades has also triggered reflection on the war. In modern warfare, the importance of firepower and mobility has become more prominent, but the essence of war has not changed. Whether offensive or defensive, the protection of people's lives and property needs to be the first priority. It is hoped that the two sides will exercise restraint and remain calm and resolve their differences and problems through dialogue and consultation, so as to jointly safeguard regional peace and stability.
In general, the news that 5 heavy artillery brigades of the Russian army went to the front has aroused widespread concern. The addition of these heavy artillery brigades will greatly enhance the firepower superiority of the Russian army on the battlefield in Ukraine and is expected to change the current situation on the battlefield. However, there is no winner in the war, and it is hoped that the two sides can exercise restraint and resolve differences and problems through peaceful means, so as to jointly maintain regional peace and stability.
