I read one article that said both fought in the Soviet style as that was their education; hopefully, Ukraine can get it together.
“I read one article that said both fought in the Soviet style”
The Ukrainian Army is fighting “Soviet-Style”, as has been demonstrated numerous times.
The rebels, on the other hand, are using small-unit tactics against them, with a decentralized yet cooperative command. The basic rebel tactical group is about 25-50 people, with small groups coming together for bigger tasks. They have been that way since the beginning, but now they act faster, and with much better coordination.
In this MLRS heavy war, massing anywhere is a recipe for disaster. Grads aren’t very accurate, but they are incredibly cheap and simple, devastating when fired enmass, very mobile, and hard to find.
