Corps Reform and Two Kinds of Middle Strike
Dmytro Putiata on the 11th Army Corps, why a corps can succeed without owning its brigades, and the two depth bands of middle strike, including striking where drone crews sleep.
Ukraine's Army: Reform and Command
Corps reform, brigade structure and the command decisions behind them. The slowest-moving part of the war and the one that decides whether the rest works.
Force structure is the least cinematic subject in this war and one of the most decisive. Brigades rotated to exhaustion, a corps system being stood up mid-war, and command arrangements that determine whether a successful attack turns into held ground or a gap nobody fills.
This is the slowest-moving part of the war. It is also the part that decides whether everything else works, because a drone campaign and an air defence network both depend on somebody above them being able to exploit what they produce.
