Episode notes
Ukraine's C2 Restructure
- Ukraine's military restructure introduces corps level, similar to Western structures.
- This shift acknowledges the need for a new command and control level, distinct from earlier brigade-to-HQ communication.
Corps Level Advantages
- Corps level headquarters should improve battlefield planning, leadership, and resource allocation.
- They should also facilitate better communication between the general staff and brigades.
Corps Role and Purpose
- Corps should focus on operational level tasks, shaping future battlespace, and exploiting opportunities.
- Simply renaming existing units as corps without changing their function is counterproductive.
