Faced with increasingly complex and demanding requirements for sustaining combined-arms forces on future battlefields, Soviet planners have undertaken a sweeping reorganization of the materiel support system in all motorized rifle, tank, and airborne divisions in the Soviet Armed Forces. This reorganization-affecting about 200 maneuver divisions-is designed to increase the responsiveness. logistics lift, and survivability of key rear service units and increase the overall sustainability of Soviet tactical maneuver units. The reorganization is coupled with a push for more intensive and realistic training for personnel in the newly created supply units. Clearly drawing on lessons learned in Afghanistan, Soviet planners are seeking to ensure that logistics capabilities keep pace with the recent combat arms modernization programs that they say have 'changed the nature of combat operations.'
