The Ukrainian army faces a serious challenge: while they have more than 100 combat brigades, old and new, few units are fully equipped. Some well-known units can only be formed into battalion-level combat teams, lacking sufficient troops and equipment. In this case, the Ukrainian army did not prioritize the rearmament of those old units, but invested resources in the formation of new ones. Since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the Ukrainian army has formed several batches of new armies, totaling dozens of brigades. This led to a phenomenon: on the one hand, the veteran units had combat experience, but their combat effectiveness was limited due to insufficient equipment; Although the new army was fully equipped, it lacked sufficient veterans and combat experience, so its combat performance was relatively poor.
This situation is especially evident in the large-scale ** of Ukraine in 2023. For example, in the Artemsk direction, the Ukrainian army lacks a large number of heavy ** direct use, and the assault forces have basically no Western-style tanks, except for a small number of CV90 high-grade cargo. On the contrary, in the ** in the tokamak direction, the Ukrainian army has concentrated a large number of new troops, equipped with Leopard 2A4, Leopard 2A6, Challenger 2, Stryk armored vehicles, M2A2 infantry combat vehicles, Weasel infantry combat vehicles, etc. Most of the Ukrainian army lacks combat experience on this front, and as a result, the results are relatively poor.
The marines of the Ukrainian army distinguished themselves on the battlefield of Veliky Novosilka. Some Marine brigades, a mix of old and new units, have achieved good results after fierce battles. These troops paid a considerable price and eventually withdrew to Kherson.
According to the normal military rhythm, these units should be fully reorganized, waiting for veterans who have recovered from their wounds to return to their units, improve their combat effectiveness, and become mobile reserves. Due to the fact that the Ukrainian army, for the sake of an international image, regardless of the actual situation of the troops, forced the marines to cross the Dnieper River and launch an attack on the Russian army. As a result, the marines suffered heavy losses at fixed points such as Klinki, and the fighting in the Tokamak direction did not achieve the desired results.
The actions of the Ukrainian army seem to lack overall strategic planning and are more of a series of ad hoc decisions for the sake of an international image. Fighting a war requires more manpower, resources, tactics and logistical support. The current Ukrainian army seems to be bogged down, lacking sufficient reserves and a clear battle plan. In the current situation, it is all the more important to maintain stability on the existing fronts, and at the same time to prepare mobile forces and demonstrate to the West the potential of the best forces.
The Ukrainian army needs to re-examine its strategic decisions and pay more attention to the preparation and training of troops to improve its combat effectiveness and combat effectiveness. Otherwise, the continuation of such ad hoc decisions and tactical actions will only further complicate the situation and lead to greater challenges and risks.
