A senior Russian military commander has said that recent combat experience has confirmed the validity of the chosen path for developing the country's Missile and Artillery Troops, according to a statement reported by TASS.
Colonel General Andrey Mordvichev said the branch is in the final stage of transitioning to a system that integrates reconnaissance, firing, command and control, and support subsystems into a single structure.
According to the commander, this integrated approach is intended to streamline the process of identifying targets and directing fire support, linking different elements of the branch's operations more closely together.
Mordvichev's remarks were framed as an assessment of the branch's performance based on operational experience, though no further technical or operational details were provided in the reported comments.
The statement comes amid continued Russian military operations and periodic public updates from senior officers on the state of the armed forces' modernization efforts.
