Russia continues its war of aggression against
Ukraine, yet its forces are already defeated. Against
the resistance of Ukrainians and its allies’ support,
Russia has achieved almost none of its military
goals. Evidently, Ukraine will prevail.
The Ukrainians have made it clear: Russian
aggression is defeatable. This is due to two main
reasons: the involvement of the entire Ukrainian
society in homeland defence and the Ukrainian
Armed Forces’ excellent military and leadership
skills. Extraordinary bravery, creativity, astonishing
pragmatism, and improvisational skills have been at
the forefront of the Ukrainian homeland defenders.
Around the world, all actors can and should learn
from Ukrainians about future military and civil
defence.
This report identifies initial lessons for armed forces
in NATO countries and politics and society from
observing the course of the war and the defence
of Ukrainians. Drawing lessons from Ukranian
homeland defence since February 2022, the
report offers possible applications to doctrine,
structures, and training for the armed forces
of NATO member states. Moreover, it provides
political recommendations derived from Ukrainian
experiences.
The report is based on open-source intelligence
information and a series of 20 extensive interviews
with combat-experienced Ukrainian commanders
and soldiers. The observation of the war and
discussions with Ukrainian forces revealed ten
areas in which the Ukrainians are particularly
innovative and unusual in their use of strategies
and tactics, at least some of which are new to the
armed forces in NATO.
This report pursues two simple questions
throughout ten dimensions: What are the
Ukrainians doing particularly well? And what can we
in NATO, the EU, and beyond learn from them?
1. Ukraine is engaging its entire society
in total defence.
2.The fight is data-based in the newest
of ways.
3. Ukrainian forces often operate as
decentralized networks with much
command-and-control responsibility
at lower and intermediate levels
4. Ukraine is shaping the battlefield
through a consistent focus on attacks
on logistics, command and control,
and communications.
5. Ukrainian soldiers are using drones
ubiquitously and en masse for many
operational purposes.
6. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have
achieved successes with minimal
units in an astonishing revival of
Jagdkampf
7. Ukraine is leading the renaissance
of artillery but in an expanded,
advanced form
8. Complex logistics, especially on rails,
form a stable backbone for the
fighting forces.
9. High operational security, tight
secrecy, and successful deception
make decisive differences.
10. The best stories win the strategic
information war.
