The Soviet helicopter force has more than doubled in the past dozen years. Drawing on the experience of the US military in Vietnam and on the actions of helicopter units in the 1973 Arab-Israeli War, as well as extensive exercise activity, the Soviets have developed and refined an extensive tactical doctrine concerning helicopter employment on the modern battlefield. In this paper, the author examines how the Soviets intend to conduct an airmobile assault (a 'tactical air assault') as a part of a larger offensive operation. In addition, reference is made to some steps which the Soviets see as necessary to combat what they consider to be a very real NATO helicopter threat. (Author)
