  • Summary

  • Russia covers more land mass than any other country. Its population density of 8.4 people
    per square kilometer make it one of the most sparsely populated countries on the planet.
    Russia’s ground forces have to be mobile and skilled in long-range deployment in order
    to deploy to threatened areas. Brigades deploy annually over a thousand kilometers to
    unfamiliar training areas. Emergency Readiness Deployment Exercises also move troop units
    over long distances to determine their ability to get to the ight eiciently and efectively.
    Brigade oicers are skilled in conducting road, rail, boat/ship and aviation unit movements.
    The Soviet Army’s entrance into Afghanistan and its later withdrawal were excellently
    executed. When the Russian Army hit rock bottom just before the 1994 incursion into
    Chechnya, it still did an impressive job of quickly pulling together pieces of its shattered
    army from all over the country.
