What are the functions of the popular "changing teachers into tourists" and "synthetic camps"? Is the combat effectiveness improved or reduced?

In the tactical and organizational reform of the modern army, there is a wave of "changing divisions into brigades" and "synthetic battalions", and NATO forces led by the United States have taken the lead in implementing them. Some people say that this is because the number of active troops in Europe is too small and it has to be adopted. Then, after millions of active troops in big countries use "changing divisions into brigades" and "synthetic battalions", will their combat effectiveness increase or decrease? Why reduce the size of the army? In fact, Americans took the lead because the US military needed global hegemony. Since the end of World War II, the US military has sent troops to various hot spots in the world and launched local wars against Afghanistan, Iraq, Yugoslavia and other countries. Therefore, the US military should be the first person to practice army operations in the information age, and it is also deeply touched by the problems of the old organizational system under this new model. Under the old military system, troops were organized according to arms. For example, the army has infantry divisions, armored divisions, motorized infantry divisions, artillery divisions, engineering units, transport units and so on. To launch a battle, it is necessary to completely match these combat categories. For example, India and Pakistan often have serious military conflicts, and 30,000-40,000 troops will be sent at a time, and sometimes even 6.5438+10,000 troops will be sent. In fact, India doesn't want to go to so much trouble, but there is no way. For example, if he sends an infantry of 1-2 division with more than 1 10,000 people, then he sends an artillery of another division. With artillery, it is necessary to prevent air strikes and equip it with certain air defense forces. With Gong Bing and transport troops, 30,000-40,000 people can't escape. In this way, in the face of a small regional conflict, it is often necessary to mobilize an entire army to deal with it, which not only has a slow response speed, but also causes a military burden. This is the shortcoming of the traditional World War II troops. In fact, there was such a sense of reform in World War II. For example, the United States and Germany often assign tank battalions to infantry units or strengthen some artillery units. 1942, the establishment of the U.S. army generally allocated 1 tank battalion, 1 air defense battalion and other troops to each infantry division, which was actually the initial embodiment of the synthetic idea. How to reduce it is the most reasonable. In wars such as desert storm, the United States further optimized the establishment, gradually evolved from a synthetic division to the current "division-to-brigade" and "synthetic battalion", and further improved the establishment of new army units. So how to change it is the most reasonable? At present, our army, like other military powers in the world, generally adopts the idea of "changing divisions into brigades", that is, establishing a synthetic brigade under the direct command of the group army to reduce the command interference brought by the intermediate level. A synthetic brigade has four synthetic battalions, 1 artillery battalion, 1 air defense battalion, 1 combat support battalion and 1 reconnaissance battalion. At present, our army has two synthetic brigades, heavy, medium and light, which can cope with China's complex geographical environment. For example, it is suitable for heavy synthetic brigades in the vast western region, while the water network in the south is vertical and horizontal, and the muddy rainy season is more suitable for light brigades. It can also be equipped with a new light tank+a new wheeled chariot, or a heavy combination of 99A heavy tank +04A. As for combat effectiveness, due to the simplification of the hierarchy, there is no regimental organizational system below the brigade level, but nine synthetic battalions are directly formed, and the strength of each synthetic battalion is actually strengthened. Take the former Soviet-style organizational system of 33 as an example. One tank platoon is 3 tanks, one company is 3 tanks, and the company headquarters is 1 vehicle, and one * * * is 10 tank. At present, the synthetic battalion has been changed to the western establishment 14 vehicles. A tank platoon has been increased from 3 to 4, and the command company has 2 vehicles. Such a company is the 14 tank. Each synthetic battalion consists of two tank companies, so there are 28 tanks, and a synthetic brigade consists of four combat synthetic battalions. Conversely, a heavy synthetic brigade will have 1 12 tanks, which is equivalent to the number of tanks of some tank divisions. Moreover, we should know that the heavy synthetic brigade is a new 99A tank with priority equipment and stronger combat effectiveness. Not only the number of tanks, but also two infantry companies, one artillery company and five combat companies in the establishment of our synthetic battalion. Such a synthetic brigade has eight infantry fighting vehicles, which is more than 100 04A. Then, the battalion belongs to the artillery company, each company has 6 howitzers 120mm, and the brigade belongs to the artillery battalion with 27 guns 65438. However, it is more flexible in command. Traditionally, there is an army in the division and a group army in the army. At present, the group army directly commands the brigade and the brigade directly commands the battalion, which is fast, efficient and convenient to respond, enough to deal with any complex regional conflict, and can achieve maximum operational efficiency in the fastest time with the least manpower. This 6,000-7,000-person heavy synthetic brigade is equipped with a certain helicopter assault force and air force, which is enough to complete the tasks that required 30,000-40,000 troops before. How fast and save!
