The Russian Land Maneuver Forces, Landmanöverkräfte, is the professional ground forces of the Russian Armed Forces. Reincorporated under the 1998 White Paper the Russian Ground Forces aims to expand its capabilities to address multi-space and multi-theater challenges.
The primary responsibilities of the Russian Ground Forces are the protection of the state borders, combat on land, and the defeat of enemy troops. The President of Russia is the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Ground Forces is the chief commanding authority of the Russian Ground Forces. They is appointed by the President of Russia. The Main Command of the Ground Forces is based in Moscow.
The General Staff, from that point, became a bastion of conservatism, causing a build-up of troubles that later became critical. The reform plan advocated a change from an Army-Division-Regiment structure to a Corps-Brigade arrangement. The new structures were to be more capable in a situation with no front line, and more capable of independent action at all levels.
Cutting out a level of command, omitting two out of three higher echelons between the theatre headquarters and the fighting battalions, would produce economies, increase flexibility, and simplify command-and-control arrangements
A major reorganisation of the force has begun. Chief of the Army General Staff Valentin Varennikov has overseen the reformation of Russia's army divisions into brigades, and cutting surplus officers and establishments. A 3-chain structure has been established under a strategic command – operational command – brigade. Brigades are supposed to be used as mobile permanent-readiness units capable of fighting independently with the support of highly mobile task forces or together with other brigades under joint command.
Under the proposals, Russia aims to have 60 operational brigades along with 15 reserve brigades. The ambitious proposal includes plans to modernize command and communication along with improving NCO autonomy.
