Ukrainian Armed Forces Form New Assault Troops: How They Differ from Paratroopers.
According to inkorr.com: Colonel Valentyn Manko, who heads the Assault Troops Management, told 'Hlavkom' in an interview that the new Assault Troops have a unique structure and tasks that differ from airborne assault units. Although this unit has not yet received an official status, Manko is already in command of them.
Main Functions of the Assault Troops
The Assault Troops are the primary combat force of the army, capable of carrying out key tasks and breaking through enemy defenses. The idea of creating mobile groups for effective task execution has already proven its effectiveness since 2014. It is also worth mentioning the significant changes in the Ukrainian army, particularly the introduction of drone systems for air defense in the Ukrainian Air Forces, aimed at increasing efficiency and modernization.
Army Modernization
The Ukrainian military continues to improve its units by introducing new technologies and forming new units to enhance combat readiness and effectiveness in the conditions of modern warfare.
The creation of the Assault Troops and their modernization are important steps to strengthen Ukraine's defense capability. These innovations meet the modern challenges of war and contribute to increasing the army's readiness to carry out complex tasks on the front.
