#Russian arty counterbattery (CBF/КББ) tactics & why 🇷🇺 can’t destroy 🇺🇦 artillery. 🇷🇺 Assessments.
- in short: no intel, no experience.
- 🇺🇦 is strong & well armed with Soviet & Western weapons, linked with contemporary centrix-based comms supported with AI.

- 🇺🇦 operates along the 🇺🇸 concept of multidomain battle (air, land, sea, space, cyber) with live intel, uninterrupted combat readiness inside the OODA loop.
- 🇷🇺 noticed that the tactics 🇺🇦 employs is not what 🇷🇺 expects.

- 🇺🇦 artillery (10-12 pieces) disperse into autonomous groups with 2-4 pieces each (on an area up to 100 sq kms); no 🇺🇦radio activity whatsoever.
- autonomous means each 🇺🇦 group cdr is authorized to plan its operations independently from other groups.

- they frequently change positions even without opening fire.
- each arty piece has its own C2 post (24/7) connected into Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System (AFATDS); cdr may receive time windows to execute the mission. His decisions are not influenced from above.

- 1-5 shells per one arty piece and scoot.
- М-777 timings in minutes: from marching to combat mode (4), 5 shells fired (1), from combat to marching (3). 8 minutes total.
- 🇷🇺 arty response time must be shorter than 3 ½ minutes. Next to impossible.

- 🇷🇺 aerial recce data is employable only in 50% and doesn’t reach the 🇷🇺 maximum arty range.
- acoustic recce can’t precisely locate the rocket arty (MLRS like #HIMARS) positions.

- 🇷🇺 radars when challenged to pinpoint the starting positions of Excalibur or HIMARS must measure the trajectories at least twice - in early moment/s and at least 5kms after the first measurement.
- Zoopark-1M can spot a 155mm projectile up to 25km distance but not further.

- 🇷🇺 afraid of AN/TPQ-47 & AN/TPS-80 G/ATOR that can pinpoint an #Iskander firing position from 300km.
- 🇷🇺 assessment: Zooparks can locate barrel arty up to 30km, MLRS to 70km & SRBMs up to 150km. Situation will improve when new 🇷🇺 radars Yastreb-AB (Ястреб-АВ) are fielded.

- 🇷🇺 arty lacking navigation, automatic positioning readout, digital comms, automatic reloading & precision ammo as well as passive radars
- 🇷🇺 propose to divide the CBF AOR into three layers: 1. close, 2. medium & 3. remote. 1: 122/152 mm 2S1/2S3 with “Aistenok/Аистенок.
