Historical reference
Brief information
Artillery, as a branch of the ground forces, consisted of formations, units and subunits, which were organizationally part of the respective formations, formations, units, as well as the reserve of the High Command. According to their combat purpose and types of guns, the artillery of the ground forces was divided into field, trench, heavy special purpose, and anti-aircraft (anti-aircraft). Field artillery was part of the rifle and cavalry divisions and was divided into light field, horse, mountain and heavy field. Special purpose heavy artillery (TAON) was subordinate to the Commander-in-Chief and was intended to strengthen fronts and armies operating in the main strategic directions. Anti-aircraft (anti-aircraft) artillery was part of the field and TAON, trench - part of the rifle regiments.
The first states (Order of the People's Commissariat of Military Affairs N 308 of April 26, 1918) within the infantry division provided for the creation of an artillery brigade (three light artillery divisions), a field heavy division, two anti-aircraft and field heavy batteries, as well as a light and mortar park and an artillery park of a heavy artillery division. The artillery brigade was headed by the division artillery chief. According to the states of the cavalry division (Order of the People's Commissariat of Military Affairs No. 612 of August 3, 1918), it was assigned a 4-battery horse artillery division; a separate cavalry brigade had a horse artillery battery (4 guns) or a division. The brigade unit within the rifle division has not received widespread development. The new states, by order of the RVSR N 220/34 of November 13, 1918, provided for 9 separate artillery divisions in the rifle division: three light, one lightweight, two heavy howitzers, two heavy field artillery - all 3-battery, anti-aircraft (of two batteries) , one separate horse battery, as well as three artillery parks (by type of gun). The divisions reported directly to the division artillery chief. Due to the lack of artillery equipment, by orders of the RVSR N 487 dated 10
March and N 1297/254 of August 15, 1919, the number of artillery battalions in the rifle division was reduced to five. One light 3-battery division was left for each brigade, and a heavy and howitzer battalion (two batteries each) per division; light or mountain artillery was excluded, and anti-aircraft artillery was transferred to the fronts. The cavalry division was assigned light horse-artillery and horse-mountain divisions of two batteries each (RVSR orders N 1635/342 of October 8 and N 1651/351 of October 12, 1919). In accordance with the order of the RVSR N 2081/399 of October 11, 1920, light artillery divisions were assigned the number of a rifle brigade, howitzer and heavy - a division number, horse artillery - the numbers of the corresponding cavalry divisions, batteries of artillery divisions received numbers, starting with the 1st in each division .
To carry out certain combat missions during the civil war, artillery groups and sections were created within armies, fortified areas, and rifle divisions. The structure and composition of artillery in rifle and cavalry divisions remained the same until the end of the Civil War.
TAON was created by order of the RVSR N 125/13 of October 21, 1918 on the basis of the disbanded directorates and formations of the old army: the Directorate of the Chief of TAON, the directorates of artillery brigades (201, 203, 204, 206, 207th), individual heavy, positional and siege divisions. According to the states announced by the same order, it was supposed to form: the Directorate of Heavy Artillery for Special Purposes, the Directorate of 1 - 5 Army Artillery Brigades TAON (three were formed), the 1st Reserve Artillery Brigade, 8 separate heavy artillery divisions (by type of batteries), three separate reserve heavy artillery battalions of three types of batteries and one separate reserve heavy artillery battery. Heavy guns and howitzers of French, English and Russian production, tractor- and horse-drawn, were put into service. By order of the RVSR N 102 of January 15, 1919, the formation of three TAON army artillery brigades of 4 divisions began. However, due to a lack of material, these brigades, the reserve brigade, and a number of artillery divisions were disbanded by order of the RVSR N 1241/212 of July 2, 1920 and were sent to replenish other units.
Developed during the continuously ongoing reorganization and reduction of the army in 1921 - 1923. The staffs of several types of rifle divisions differed in the composition and structure of artillery, with the wartime division (letter A) having the greatest saturation. While maintaining the composition adopted at the end of the civil war, its artillery divisions were reinforced with third batteries (RVSR order N 556/88 of March 14, 1921). Most peacetime divisions (letter B) included a combined heavy howitzer (two batteries) and light (three batteries) artillery divisions with parks and a training combined howitzer battery; their brigades of artillery units are not
had (order of the RVSR N 1400/246 of July 5, 1921); brigades of border divisions included light artillery divisions (RVSR order N 2020/345 of September 16, 1921). A separate rifle brigade in the internal district had a separate 4-gun battery, in the border ones there was a light artillery division (three batteries) with a fleet (Order of the RVSR N 66/6 of January 10, 1922). The rifle corps included a heavy artillery division. The cavalry division included a light artillery division (three batteries), and a separate cavalry brigade included a separate light 4-gun battery.
By Order of the RVSR N 1165/210 of May 31, 1921, units of TAON, anti-aircraft and trench artillery were united into special purpose artillery (SPA), the leadership of which was entrusted to the newly created Special Purpose Artillery Directorate. After its abolition (RVSR orders N 1572/309 of June 29 and N 2902/568 of December 27, 1922), the management of special training of personnel was carried out by the chief of artillery of the Red Army; on issues of formation, replenishment, combined arms and artillery supply, GA units were subordinate to the district artillery chiefs. Organizationally, special-purpose artillery was reduced to separate divisions - heavy, artillery, mortar, anti-aircraft, automobile, consisting of batteries, separate anti-aircraft railway batteries, TAON artillery groups; there was a reserve GA brigade. According to the order on special-purpose artillery of the Republic No. 3 of June 17, 1921, special-purpose anti-aircraft artillery was reduced into two groups. The Moscow group included 1 separate, Petrograd - 2, 3, 4 and 5 separate anti-aircraft divisions and 1 and 2 separate reserve anti-aircraft railway batteries. By order of the USSR RVS N 1097 of August 30, 1923, all anti-aircraft units were renamed anti-aircraft units.
In connection with the abolition of the brigade level in rifle divisions by order of the RVSR N 1647/323 of July 10, 1922, the number of artillery units was reduced accordingly. On October 1, 1923, according to the report of the People's Commissariat of Military Affairs for 1922 - 1923, the Red Army had artillery that was part of rifle and cavalry formations, and artillery outside divisions and brigades, which included special-purpose artillery, training units, separate artillery division of the Turkestan Front. Changes were also made to the regimental artillery. According to peacetime and wartime states, batteries and platoons of regimental artillery were introduced into rifle and territorial regiments (Order of the USSR Revolutionary Military Council N 2525/629 of November 14, 1923).
The increase in the share of artillery in the ground forces during the military reform made it possible to strengthen the firepower of rifle and cavalry formations.
In 1924, for the first time, artillery was introduced into the rifle division
regiment (two divisions of four batteries each), the rifle regiment includes a battery of regimental artillery (orders of the USSR RVS N 1295 and 1298/203 of October 7, 1924, N 667 of June 28, 1925). The peacetime rifle corps was assigned a heavy artillery division (two batteries of six guns each) and an artillery regiment (orders of the USSR Revolutionary Military Council N 1296, 1297/202 of October 7, 1924, N 667 of June 28, 1925), the wartime rifle corps was assigned an artillery regiment 3-divisional composition (order of the Revolutionary Military Council of the USSR N 36 / 7 of January 29, 1927). The territorial divisions created during this period included an artillery regiment of two divisions (two or three batteries in each) (orders of the USSR Revolutionary Military Council N 668 of June 28, 1925 and N 408 of July 29, 1926).
By order of the Revolutionary Military Council of the USSR N 411 of August 5, 1927, instead of one, a rifle regiment included two batteries, united into artillery divisions; a rifle battalion included a machine gun company and a platoon of battalion artillery. The cavalry formations had the same composition of artillery; the staff provided for wartime (Order of the RVSR N 267/82 of February 7, 1923) the reinforcement of the cavalry corps with a howitzer horse-artillery division (with a park and transport), which in 1927 was excluded from the corps. .
As part of the special purpose artillery, according to the states announced by order of the USSR Revolutionary Military Council N 674/133 dated July 1, 1925, a division (instead of the supposed four) of 2 regiments and two separate regiments was formed. Due to the lack and deterioration of the material, a number of artillery groups, individual divisions, and GA batteries were disbanded and transferred to military artillery. In 1926, the special-purpose artillery was renamed the reserve artillery of the High Command (ARGC).
The creation of new weapons and equipment systems during the years of technical reconstruction of the army caused radical changes in the structure of the ground forces, the emergence of units that were new in their purpose.
In 1931, a horse artillery regiment of six batteries was added to the cavalry division, increasing its firepower. According to the new structure, approved by the NPO in January 1935, the rifle division included an artillery regiment (4 divisions) and a separate anti-aircraft machine gun company. The division was reinforced with more advanced guns - anti-aircraft, anti-tank, mortars, and automatic small arms. Artillerymen and machine gunners accounted for 40.5% of the division's total personnel. The rifle corps of the border military district had two artillery regiments and a separate anti-aircraft artillery division.
The personnel of the rifle divisions of the fortified areas, approved by the NPO in February 1936, provided for a further increase in the artillery in their composition: one (in the divisions of the Far East - two) artillery regiment (three divisions of three batteries), a separate machine-gun battalion and an anti-aircraft machine-gun company; The rifle regiment included a machine gun battalion (4 - 5 machine gun companies) and a battery
regimental artillery, and the rifle battalion - a machine gun company and a heavy weapons company. The armament consisted of: light machine guns - 194, heavy machine guns - 321, anti-aircraft - 18, guns of various calibers - 90, caponier guns - from 4 to 24. The wartime division of the fortified area had a reinforced artillery composition: instead of an anti-aircraft machine-gun company - an anti-aircraft artillery division, an artillery regiment The 4th artillery division was introduced, the rifle regiment had two machine-gun battalions instead of one, and a battery of caponier artillery was assigned to the regiment.
The artillery of a wartime mountain rifle division was built according to the following calculation: an artillery regiment (three divisions), a separate anti-aircraft battery, a battery of anti-tank guns; The regiment was assigned a mortar platoon and a pack-mountain battery; one platoon in the company had a machine gun. It was armed with: 224 light and 69 heavy machine guns, 12 anti-aircraft, 28 mountain and 24 other guns, 12 mortars.
In 1935 - 1937 There was a sharp strengthening of the strategic cavalry, saturation of it with field, anti-aircraft and anti-tank artillery, and automatic small arms, which led to changes in the structure. According to the states of 1935, the cavalry corps included an anti-aircraft artillery division and an anti-aircraft machine-gun squadron, a cavalry division - a horse-artillery division and an anti-aircraft machine-gun squadron, and a reinforced cavalry division (for the Far East) - a horse-artillery regiment. In the pre-war years, due to the general reduction of the strategic cavalry, some changes occurred in the composition of its artillery. Separate anti-aircraft artillery divisions remained at the headquarters of the cavalry corps; Anti-aircraft machine-gun squadrons were excluded from a number of cavalry divisions; instead, batteries of anti-tank guns (six 45 mm guns) were introduced into the artillery divisions, transferred together with howitzer batteries to mechanical traction.
During the years of technical reconstruction, the number of ARGK units increased; by 1939, 24 RGK regiments were created, including separate regiments of the same type with 3 divisions (three batteries each) and separate special-purpose divisions.
In 1938, the creation of howitzer artillery regiments of rifle divisions began, but only the first divisions and regimental schools were formed.
In the pre-war years, the firepower of rifle troops continued to be strengthened and the organizational forms of military artillery were improved. In 1939, new states of the rifle troops were adopted, the structure of artillery units and subunits announced in them was preserved until the Great Patriotic War. The rifle corps and rifle division were assigned second artillery regiments, they had anti-aircraft divisions; an anti-tank division and a platoon of heavy machine guns were introduced into the rifle division, and mortar platoons and anti-tank batteries into the regiment,
the battalion received mortar and anti-tank platoons.
The motorized rifle divisions newly created by decision of the Main Military Council (November 1939) included one artillery regiment (four divisions of three batteries each), anti-aircraft and anti-tank divisions, and the regiment was assigned two batteries.
The 1939 plan for the reorganization of the ground forces provided for the strengthening of cavalry divisions. Before the war, the cavalry division had separate horse artillery and anti-aircraft artillery divisions.
In the pre-war years, significant changes took place in the organization and armament of the reserve artillery of the High Command, which included regiments, special divisions, and mortar battalions. Fourth divisions were introduced into the regiments (three 4-gun batteries in each); special power divisions had three batteries (two guns each), mortar batteries - four companies of 12 mortars each. The weapons and equipment of the artillery were updated. On the eve of the war, the formation of 10 anti-tank artillery brigades began, consisting of two artillery regiments, a mine-sapper battalion and service units. By the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, the artillery of the RGK had 74 artillery regiments (in 1929 - 4, in 1938 - 24) (60 howitzers and 14 cannons), separate divisions of special strength and mortar battalions.
According to the states adopted in April 1941, the rifle division was supposed to be armed with: 558 machine guns, 1204 submachine guns, 210 guns and mortars.
In terms of combat qualities, the field artillery of the Red Army was superior to the German one, but inferior to it in terms of the number of automatic weapons and mechanized traction.

(motorized rifle troops). Like a battalion, a division is the smallest unit that has a headquarters.
At the present stage, a division providing air defense can be either a structural unit within regiments/brigades/divisions of ground forces ( Military air defense ), and a structural unit within the Air Defense Forces carrying out the tasks of air defense of objects ( Object air defense ).
Anti-aircraft artillery battalion
Formation Military air defense
.
anti-aircraft artillery battalion (zenadn)
- formation within (zap) or a separate formation ozenadn
as part of motorized rifle/tank/airborne divisions. In some Wehrmacht infantry divisions and in all SS divisions zenadn
was part of artillery regiment. In the rifle divisions of the Red Army it was a separate formation within the division ( ozenadn
).
In connection with the transition in the 60-70s to more effective missile weapons at the present stage anti-aircraft artillery regiments And zenadn
those armed exclusively with anti-aircraft artillery guns - no. In the USSR Armed Forces, by the end of the 80s, the last anti-aircraft artillery regiment armed with the S-60 gun was the 990th anti-aircraft artillery regiment (990th Regiment) of the 201st Motorized Rifle Division during the Afghan War. Anti-aircraft batteries of the 990th Regiment served as combat guards at the Kunduz airport.
- Note: In the historical period before the advent of missile weapons zenadn also served as Object air defense . During the Great Patriotic War zenadn as part of zap united in anti-aircraft artillery divisions (zenad) carried out air defense tasks for important facilities and major cities of the USSR. For example, the 251st Western Division, which was reorganized into the 53rd Zenad and defended Moscow, had a personnel of 1,800 people and was divided into four zenadn with total anti-aircraft artillery batteries (zenbatr ) in 25 units.

Notes
An excerpt characterizing the Air Defense Division
But he could not answer her, much less offer her anything. He was simply dead, and, unfortunately, he knew nothing about what happened “after”, just like all the other people who lived in that “dark” time, when everyone and everyone was literally beaten with the heaviest “hammer of lies.” It comes to your head that there is nothing more “after” and that human life ends at this mournful and terrible moment of physical death...- Dad, mom, where are we going now? – the girl asked cheerfully. It seemed that now that everyone was gathered, she was completely happy again and was ready to continue her life even in such an unfamiliar existence for her.
- Oh, mommy, my hand went through the bench!!! How can I sit down now?.. - the little girl was surprised.
But before my mother had time to answer, suddenly, right above them, the air sparkled with all the colors of the rainbow and began to thicken, turning into an amazingly beautiful blue channel, very similar to the one I saw during my unsuccessful “swimming” in our river. The canal sparkled and shimmered with thousands of stars and enveloped the dumbfounded family more and more tightly.
“I don’t know who you are, girl, but you know something about this,” my mother suddenly turned to me. - Tell me, should we go there?
“I’m afraid so,” I answered as calmly as possible. – This is your new world in which you will live. And he is very handsome. You'll like him.
I was a little sad that they were leaving so soon, but I understood that it would be better this way, and that they would not even have time to truly regret what they had lost, since they would immediately have to accept their new world and their new life...
- Oh, mommy, mommy, how beautiful!!! Almost like New Year!.. Vidas, Vidas, isn’t it beautiful?! – the baby babbled happily. - Well, let's go, let's go, what are you waiting for!
Mom smiled at me sadly and said tenderly:
- Goodbye, girl. Whoever you are - happiness to you in this world...
And, hugging her little ones, she turned to the glowing channel. All of them, except little Katya, were very sad and clearly very worried. They had to leave everything that was so familiar and so familiar, and “go” to God knows where. And, unfortunately, they had no choice in this situation...
Suddenly, in the middle of the luminous channel, a luminous female figure became denser and began to smoothly approach the stunned family huddled together.
“Alice?..” the mother said hesitantly, peering intently at the new guest.
The entity, smiling, extended its arms to the woman, as if inviting her into her arms.
- Alice, is it really you?!..
“So we have met, dear,” said the luminous creature. - Are you really all?.. Oh, what a pity!.. It’s too early for them... What a pity...
- Mommy, mommy, who is it? – the stunned little girl asked in a whisper. - How beautiful she is!.. Who is this, mom?
“This is your aunt, dear,” the mother answered affectionately.
- Aunt?! Oh, how good – a new aunt!!! Who is she? – the curious girl did not let up.
- She's my sister, Alice. You've never seen her. She left for this “other” world when you were not yet there.
“Well, then it was a very long time ago,” little Katya confidently stated the “indisputable fact.”
The glowing “aunt” smiled sadly, watching her cheerful little niece, who did not suspect anything wrong in this new life situation. And she happily bounced on one leg, trying out her unusual “new body” and, remaining completely satisfied with it, stared questioningly at the adults, waiting for them to finally go to that extraordinary glowing “new world” of theirs... She seemed completely happy again, since her whole family was here, which meant that “everything is fine with them” and there was no need to worry about anything anymore... Her tiny children's world was again habitually protected by the people she loved and she no longer had to thinking about what happened to them today and just waiting for what would happen next.
Alice looked at me very carefully and said tenderly:
- It’s still early for you, girl, you still have a long way ahead...
The glowing blue channel still sparkled and shimmered, but it suddenly seemed to me that the glow had become weaker, and as if answering my thought, “aunt” said:
“It’s time for us, my dears.” You don't need this world anymore...
She took them all into her arms (which I was surprised for a moment, since she seemed to suddenly become bigger) and the glowing channel disappeared along with the sweet girl Katya and her whole wonderful family... It became empty and sad, as if I had lost again someone close, as happened almost always after a new meeting with the “departing” ones...
- Girl, are you okay? – I heard someone’s alarmed voice.
Someone was bothering me, trying to “return” me to a normal state, since apparently I had again “entered” too deeply into that other, distant world for others and frightened some kind person with my “frozen-abnormal” calm.
The evening was just as wonderful and warm, and everything around remained exactly the same as it was just an hour ago... only I didn’t want to walk anymore.
Someone’s fragile, good lives, having just ended so easily, flew away like a white cloud into another world, and I suddenly felt very sad, as if a drop of my lonely soul flew away with them... I really wanted to believe that the sweet girl Katya would find at least some kind of happiness in anticipation of their return “home”... And I was sincerely sorry for all those who did not have “aunts” coming to ease their fear at least a little, and who rushed about in horror, leaving for that arcing, unfamiliar and frightening world , not even imagining what awaits them there, and not believing that this is still their “precious and only” LIFE...
The days flew by unnoticed. Weeks passed. Little by little I began to get used to my unusual everyday visitors... After all, everything, even the most extraordinary events, which we perceive at the beginning almost as a miracle, become common occurrences if they are repeated regularly. That’s how my wonderful “guests”, who amazed me so much at the beginning, became almost a common occurrence for me, into which I honestly invested part of my heart and was ready to give much more if only it could help someone . But it was impossible to absorb all that endless human pain without choking on it and without destroying oneself. Therefore, I became much more careful and tried to help without opening all the “floodgates” of my raging emotions, but tried to remain as calm as possible and, to my great surprise, I very soon noticed that in this way I could help much more and more effectively , without getting tired at all and spending much less of your vitality on all this.
It would seem that my heart should have “closed itself” long ago, plunging into such a “waterfall” of human sadness and melancholy, but apparently the joy for finally finding the much-desired peace of those who managed to help far exceeded any sadness, and I wanted to do this is endless, as far as my, unfortunately, still only childish, strength was then sufficient.

artillery battalion Korsa, artillery battalion Ufa
Artillery division- structural formation of artillery as part of a regiment/brigade (unit) or a separate military unit (with an adjective in the actual name of the formation - separate).
Reduction - adn.
Approximately equivalent to a battalion in motorized rifle (motorized infantry) and other troops (special forces). Like a battalion, a division is the smallest formation that has a headquarters.
Regardless of affiliation with the armed forces of a particular state, an artillery division consists of a division headquarters, fire batteries and auxiliary combat and logistics support units. Fire batteries are batteries armed with guns. Artillery of the armed forces of different states, auxiliary formations can be called batteries in different versions - control battery, artillery reconnaissance battery, headquarters battery, auxiliary battery, service battery, and so on.

Regimental artillery
An artillery division is a unit within a motorized rifle/tank/airborne/marine regiment/brigade.
For example, the organizational structure of an adn motorized rifle regiment in the USSR Armed Forces in the mid-1980s had the following form:
- division headquarters and individual platoons attached to it:
- platoon of the regimental artillery chief's control (voon),
- division control platoon (wood),
- support platoon (in),
- divisional medical station (DMP);
- self-propelled artillery battery (sabatre) which included:
- control platoon (wu),
- two fire platoon(s) of three 2S1 units each;
- two howitzer artillery batteries (gabatr), each of which included:
- control platoon (wu),
- two fire platoon(s) of three units of 122 mm D-30 howitzers each,
- traction department (drivers department) (from/s).
The platoon of the control of the chief of artillery of the regiment (voon) is a formation that provides communication with the artillery units within the battalions. Formally, in the organizational order, the vuna is listed at the headquarters of the regiment/brigade, but in fact is part of the division. The division control platoon (wood) performs the function of providing communications and reconnaissance for the fire batteries. The control platoon (vu) in a fire battery is designed to conduct reconnaissance (by the forces of the reconnaissance department consisting of a squad commander, a rangefinder and a driver) and provide communications (by the forces of a communications department consisting of a squad commander, three to four radiotelephonists and a driver). The military unit may include a computer with the rank of corporal. The thrust section (from) performs the task of towing the guns.
The regimental artillery could be armed with from one to three types of guns.
The structure of an artillery division in the armies of NATO countries is similar to the Soviet one, with the exception of details such as different terminology and the unification of auxiliary combat and logistics platoons at the division headquarters into formations called a headquarters battery and a service battery. In an artillery battalion of the US Army, these units are divided into a headquarters battery and a service battery. artillery division of a motorized infantry brigade of the Federal Republic of Germany, auxiliary units are combined into one formation called the headquarters and supply battery.
Divisional artillery
Main article Divisional artillery.
At the divisional artillery level, there are several types of artillery battalions:
artillery division (ADN) - a structural formation as part of an artillery regiment/brigade of a motorized rifle/tank division. Unlike a regimental artillery division in which there may be 2-3 types of guns in service, in a separate division of an artillery regiment there is only one type of gun. For example, the organizational structure of an artillery regiment of a motorized rifle division in the USSR Armed Forces in the mid-1980s had the following form:
- regimental headquarters
- self-propelled artillery division (sadn) on 18 2S3
- two howitzer artillery divisions (gadn) each with 18 D-30
- rocket artillery division (readn) with 18 BM-21
- Combat and logistics support units.
In addition to the same type of weapons, the rest of the organizational and staffing structure of the adn of the artillery regiment was fully consistent with the adn of the motorized rifle/tank/parachute regiment.
It should be noted that in the US Army there is no such formation as an artillery regiment/brigade within divisions. The divisional artillery in it is represented by the artillery headquarters and the headquarters company under it, headed by the division artillery chief, under whose control there are several artillery divisions. The composition of the artillery battalion, unlike its Soviet counterpart, has auxiliary combat and logistics support units combined into two batteries.
For example, the composition of the artillery battalion of 155 mm self-propelled howitzers of the US heavy motorized infantry division is as follows:
- division headquarters
- The headquarters battery consists of the following:
- control platoon
- communications platoon
- service battery consisting of the following:
- control platoon
- support platoon
- ammunition platoon
- repair platoon
- 3 howitzer batteries, 8 M109 self-propelled howitzers.
The number of personnel of the artillery battalion of 155 mm self-propelled howitzers is 687 people.
- Note: in the divisional artillery formations of the armed forces of some states at the present stage, there is no division into divisions. For example, an artillery regiment of a French infantry division consists of five batteries: a control and maintenance battery and a 4th firing battery. The regiment is armed with 24 155-mm self-propelled guns, eight 20-mm anti-aircraft artillery guns, 18 armored personnel carriers and 260 vehicles and a personnel of 850 people.
Separate artillery battalion
separate artillery division (sadn)- a separate formation within the division. in the armed forces of some states, in addition to the artillery regiment/brigade, the division also included/is included oadn. For example, in the period before 1983, the Soviet airborne divisions, in addition to the artillery regiment, also included separate self-propelled artillery division (siege) on ASU-85 and separate rocket artillery battalion (oreadn) on BM-21V.
Separate missile division
separate missile division (order)- a separate formation within the motorized rifle/tank divisions of the USSR Armed Forces in the period before 1988, and after 1988 - a structural formation in separate missile brigades (orbr) of army subordination.
They were formed in the mid-60s and were initially armed with the 9K52 Luna-M complexes, which were later re-equipped with the 9K79 Tochka.
Staff structure order:
- division headquarters
- auxiliary platoons
- 2nd starting batteries (sbatr) and 2nd self-propelled launchers (spu).
Personnel - about 120 people.
Separate anti-tank artillery division
separate anti-tank artillery division (optadn)- a separate formation within motorized rifle divisions (MSD) of the USSR Armed Forces.
During the Second World War, as part of the Red Army rifle division, a similar formation was called as separate anti-tank fighter division (oiptdn), and in the Wehrmacht infantry division - anti-tank battalion. SS divisions had a similar formation tank destroyer battalion/tank destroyer battalion, which was armed with Panzerjäger I self-propelled artillery mounts.
Separate anti-tank artillery division MSD By the end of the 80s, the USSR Armed Forces consisted of:
- division headquarters
- division control platoon (wood)
- support platoon
- divisional medical station (DMP)
- repair platoon (repair platoon)
- departments of radiation and chemical reconnaissance (ORHR)
- economic department (housekeeping department)
- 2nd anti-tank artillery batteries (ptabatr), each for 6 MT-12 guns (MT-LB tractor)
- anti-tank battery (bptur) for six 9P149 based on MT-LB
Reconnaissance Artillery Battalion
reconnaissance artillery battalion (radn)- structural formation as part of an artillery brigade or as part of an artillery regiment of a division or a separate formation (oradn) as part of a corps/army (which already refers to corps or army artillery). Eg happy is part of the artillery regiment of the German motorized infantry division.
The task (radn)/(oradn) is the conduct of artillery reconnaissance and topographic support for the artillery units of the formation/association. For example, the 836th separate reconnaissance artillery division of the Red Army during the Great Patriotic War carried out artillery reconnaissance for the 14th Army.
In the artillery reconnaissance complex carried out (radn)/(oradn) includes meteorological reconnaissance, sound (counter-battery) reconnaissance, radar reconnaissance, and aerial photography.
